Lily's POV

It all seemed like a dream to me. like a very big joke. Chase had the guts to do all that, in a crowd of people he'd been with almost half of the ladies.

“Oh friend.” Jessica said, smiling so mischievously.

“Don't call me that.” I protested.

“Pardon me if I do not know what to say. One would think you'd be next to your friend now, you know, in her time of need.” She said,

I knew Jessica was gloating over me, and I kinda deserved it for nursing any feelings for Chase, ever.

“Jessica, this is neither the time or the place.” I said. My eyes had begun to water.

I didn't see it coming, at all.

I thought there was nothing more to a jewelry box than a necklace. Chase asking Emma to marry him, to me, wasn't even a remote possibility. It felt like it was gonna be a high school fling at best.

“Welcome to my boat.” She said, smiling. “We certainly are not needed here. Let's row along, shall we?” She asked.

We got out of the dining hall and headed straight to the cla

    Grayson’s POV “Hey Man.” Chase rang me up. “What's up?” “Nothing much.” I replied. “Just stuck here since Jessica and Lily have found friends in each other.” I slipped, sadly. “I kinda noticed that. What do you think is up with them though?” He asked, in the most demeaning tone I might ever have heard. “They both my women. I won't take that now, fam.” I replied, shutting him up. “What did you want to say?” I asked. He must've called for a reason. “Uhmm, well, I just got in.” He sounded really excited. I could hear the reverberation of his voice, meaning he actually was in his space. “I'm proud of you, man.” I said. I was really excited. A yard of ours to host parties and orgies, finally! “Is she there?” I asked, lowering my voice. “No, she isn't. Dummy!” He said. “She will be soon. Just thought to call you first so you don't disturb the rest of our evening.” He added, light-heartedly. “Oh. This is what you do to a broken man?” I asked, feigning hurt. “Get out

    Lily's POV I didn't mean to, but Gray was fond of bringing out the worst in me. I hated being around him. I had been cheated on, played a lot, by him and Chase and I had no more desire to see or be with any of them. The only reason I obliged Jessica was because she was the only one around to listen to my shit and somehow face it with me. Her modeling gigs were getting fewer with the ‘Rudd’ scandal. Rudd somehow managed to make it out of the country on time. As of when Jessica's parents heard it and were ready to sue, he was already on international waters. Brands weren't so enthusiastic about working with her anymore. She somehow poured all that attention into me, and we began to relate more. I followed her anyway to Marty’s because she convinced me that Gray had what we needed. I threw a sleeveless hoodie on. The weather was quite warm, but I still felt the need to seem invisible, and the only thing that could do that was the camo hoodie I got during a shopping spree with Em

    Emma's POV I was getting a little too worried, but I knew I was justified. Chase had a house he never told me about, and chose the day he proposed to me to move out. I sat in my bed, trying not to over think. I texted Lily, but she said she was busy. And I could believe that. Her family was gonna know its fate, or had known it already. Things must not be easy on her. So I made a mental note to take some of the stuff Mark got me as gifts to her the next day. My phone rang, finally, and it was Chase. But it was already five hours past noon. My mom was back, which means my curfew for ten pm was too. “Hey babe.” He said, treading gently. “Don't do that.” I said. I was really angry with him for leaving me like that. “Chase, this is barely six hours after you go down on your knees, and you're away, somewhere I do not know. Chase, this isn't fair.” I said, near tears. “Emma, I'm sorry.” Chase's voice had this effect on me, one I didn't like. I wanted to stay mad at him. I wante

    Jessica's POV I got home that night, after meeting with Lily and Gray. Lily had served him the biggest revelation of his life. She was gonna have a baby with Chase, and he made her abort it at two months old, over ten months ago. Only three of us, Chase, Lily and I knew about it. I felt poorly for ever aiding that, but Chase was my friend, my childhood friend. . That was the beginning of Lily's depression. We also had to bully her to make sure she didn't report to the authorities. I don't know how Chase further did it, but her lips were sealed, except now. I didn't know what she had coming, but I knew she was going through a lot, and that could account for the way she acted. Gray called me when he got back home that night. “Hey, sorry if I cut your sleep short,” He started. “Come on, you know I don't sleep that late.” I said, I didn't like how he was being so formal because of what just happened. “You know, I still like to visit my toys.” I teased him. “Well those ar

    Chase's POVEmma spent the night at my house and woke up at four am to about twelve missed calls from her mom. I counted them all. “Are you always up so early?” I asked her. She ruined my breakfast in bed. “Why are you looking like it's not a good thing I woke up?” She said, squinting even though there was very minimal light in the room. My bedroom was upstairs. I requested one that overlooked everywhere. “That's because I wanted to bring you breakfast in bed. ” I protested. “I now know to start cooking by two hours past midnight.” I joked. “That's easy. I'll sleep back, just watch me.” Emma said, enthusiastically throwing the blanket back over herself. “Not so soon.” I rushed to her and tore it off immediately. “By the way, why aren't you asleep yourself?” She asked me. I traced invisible lines on her body and watched her respond to my touch. The deal with girls who didn't have much experience sexually is that they were so responsive, and I enjoyed that in Em. “

    Chase's POV Emma had arrived yet, but I didn't want her to meet the word air that was brewing between Gray and I. Just a few hours ago, I assured her that Gray had nothing to threaten us with again, and that he might even soften towards her in the very near future. “What's going on?” I asked Gray, sitting next to him in class. He had a pensive look on, and stared unblinking at Jessica and Lily. “You mean you never thought to tell me?! Me of all people, Chase?!” He said, but he maintained a low voice. “I hate how I got to know about it, Chase, but I hate it more for you. I'll claw you with every weapon in my arsenal and I'm gonna bleed you where it hurts.” He said. I thought to reason with him, but there was so much disrespect in all he had said and done. “I'm not gonna take this shit anymore.” I said. “Gray, it was a fuckin mistake, I was fuckin paranoid. None of us was in a place to raise a child. Lily's family was breaking apart, I have no parents.” I said to him, “If y

    Lily's POV “Hey baby.” My dad said, walking into my room. The old man's heart break was only too visible. It seemed like he miraculously had more lines and creases on his forehead. “I'm sorry about earlier.” I apologized. “Oh, baby. I'm not annoyed. I'm not the one with about fifty percent hearing.” He joked, and we both laughed. “I thought you'd be angry with me.” I confessed. “And that is where you get me wrong, Lily. You are the least expressive of both of you. You are the only girl I have. It's a cruel world to women out there. You need to learn to speak for yourself, Lily. And for what you did,” He said, lowering his voice, “I'm proud of you.” I had not been happier in a minute. He pressed a kiss to my forehead and rocked me a bit. “I'm glad I have you.” I said, my heart was full and the tears were already at the brink of letting themselves out. “That births the other news I have.” He said, pulling away from me. “And what is that?” I didn't know what to e

    Emma's POV Once again, thanks to another boy, one I almost gave my life to, my nudes were floating around. It was deja vu. I should've seen it all coming. Pictures of Chase with Jessica and then pictures of me and him at the hotel. I shamelessly went through some others social media accounts and even saw pictures I sent to him privately. I should've known better, I should've seen it coming. Worse still, he didn't even run after me. “Hey baby.” My mom, in one of her very fancy floral outfits, walked in unannounced to my room. I was so grateful I didn't pack any of my clothes to Chase's house. It's been three days since it happened, but it was still the talk of the town, second only to speculations about prom king and Queen. The or I had planned so carefully for was going to elude me. There was no way I was setting my feet in school if it wasn't for school. “Hi, mom.” I croaked. “Come on. What's going on? It cannot possibly be your period.” She said, I lied to her that it

    Emma's POV. “You were gonna go in.” He said, looking away. “I was.” I replied, unshifting. He no longer had the courage to stare me down, and I no longer had the will to leave, “MIT looks good on you.” He said. “Thank you.” I smiled, “I could say the same for you.” “I see you've made new friends, well old ones,but you know…” He said. I chuckled within myself. Who'd have known that I could make the bad boy Chase unsure about me? “Yeah, I had no choice.” I murmured. “Uhm, how are you?” I asked, just out of courtesy, I told myself. I thought being brave and bold was gonna make me indestructible by him, but I was beginning to come off as antagonistic, and I didn't like it. Deep down, in the corners of my heart I hoped Kevin would never see, Chase occupied it. I wanted for him to close the distance between us like he'd once done. To treat me like his own. I was getting a little teary, so I dug my freshly manicured nail into my palm, I wasn't gonna cry, I could not.

    Emma's POV “Come on, Patty can wait.” Kevin held me closer. I thought I heard someone enter, but Kevi didn't give me headroom, and I didn't want to distract him. “Anything else?” I asked jokingly, even though I really was so keen on getting back to Party. “Yeah, let's hang out a while.” He said. “Kev, today is the D-day, it's what we're here for. I kinda have to be there.” I protested. “Fine then.” He said, taking his arms away from around my waist. “Come on, Kev.” I pulled him back, “you are not and, are you?” I asked. “It just seems like things are a lot different than I felt they would be.” He replied, looking away. “What does that even mean?” I asked It was our first argument, and I didn't like it that it was happening at Mark's house. “Em, you're obviously with your family. I'm second place. I should've expected that. Maybe I'd have rethought traveling all the way here.” Kev smiled. “You don't mean that. Kev, we've literally been together, I only l

    Emma's POV Two days, with Kev and Chase the house wasn't what I thought it would be. Chase was barely available, and when he was, he made sure he was extremely busy. Kevin, too, worked in the room Patty had arranged for him, so they had no reasons to cross paths except dinner time. I had an extensive talk with my mom about Kevin. She still really wasn't feeling him, but she was glad I'd moved on from Chase, it was mixed emotions for her. “This is so good, Mr Norman.” He smiled at the wine Chase's dad asked Patty to get. “This old man knows good things when he sees one.” He looked glaringly at my mom, but she avoided his eyes. The air between them was still a little weird, but they had to put up a show, for the rest of us at least, who had bigger things going on. I'd spent two days feeling like shit for not forcing Casey to come along with me instead of Kevin. In my defense, he said he wanted to meet my mom and properly apologize for all that'd happened in Starry. It seemed l

    Patty's POV Emma and Kevin, as she called him, arrived without much fanfare. It'd been a minute since I saw her so happy. She wasn't my favorite person in the house, but I had grown to have a soft spot for her. “How are you, Patty?” She squealed and even threw her arms open. “I'm good.” I smiled. “Meet Kev.” She smiled, “Kev, here's Party. Mark's longest serving home manager.” “Nice to meet you Ma'am. You're in really good shape too.” The boy flashed his million dollar smile at me. He looked so good, the most pretty eye candy I'd seen in a while. “You're welcome, Kevin.” I said. “Everyone's inside.” Mark and Linda have been attending to the event planners that Chase had coming to the house. With his arm still in a sling, there was very little he could do without Linda's help. The air around them was a bit icy, but they made it work. I hoped for both of their sakes that they fix what was between them. At least he wasn't cheating on Linda with her friends like he d

    Chase's POV I'd still seriously been considering excuses for not showing up at the anniversary. It was six days to go. I woke up every morning to thoughts of it. Ding! Ding! My phone chimed. My phone was always on DND and only rang or chimed when it was someone on my favorites list messaging me. I still hadn't been able to bring myself to take Emma off the list. ‘Welcome everyone!’, A text on a new group chat read. I rubbed the sleep away from my eyes, and looked at it again. It was just my Dad, Emma, and I. “What is going on?” I asked him. I felt fear, annoyance and excitement. “Why the group?” I asked again. “Is that how you now greet your old man?” He asked. “Come on dad, I'm not having a good morning.” I said. “I need all hands on deck to give Linda the perfect first year anniversary, and you both are gonna help out, whether you like it or not!” He yelled at me. “What if something came up? A laboratory session I can't miss? Or a presentation?” I asked

    Emma's POV “What do you mean next week?!” I squealed as my mom broke the news to me. She and Mark were gonna be having their first anniversary in a week. “Yeah.” She breathed really deep. . “You don't sound too enthusiastic.” I observed. “Stuff has been going on, Em. Didn't want to bother you.” She replied to me. “Now I'm so bothered.” I replied to her. It's been over a week since Kev and I officially got out of the friendship zone. Kev was explicit with the fact that he wanted more than just to be friends, and I think we'd gone beyond that too. “I shot him.” She said, I felt like a bomb had just exploded in my head. This was the man who rescued us from the allegations in Starry. “What the fuck, mom?” I yelled over the phone. I was home, and currently the only one in my apartment, so I could tell as loudly and freely as I wanted to. Kevin had begun to spend more time over, although for the bulk of it, he was on his work laptop. “Don't use the f word with m

    Chase's POV “Don't ever think of that.” My dads voice boomed over the phone. “I'm young and still strong.” He boasted . I'd chipped in the possibility of him taking a break from his numerous businesses and just resting. “Why are you so anti-rest?” I asked. Me and the old man were only beginning to really get along. We were still fixing all the cracks in our relationship, carefully skipping over the lost pieces. “It's just not the time.” He groaned. We were on a video call. I saw his face squeezed every single time he had to lift his shot hand. “I've got a lot of stuff to make up to a lot of people.” He said. “You can't do that if you're dead.” I reminded him. “You sound just like your mother.” He smiled, and looked lost for a while, snapping back only when the glass mug I mistakenly knocked off made a loud crashing noise. “Linda's great too.” I said. “She's a good woman.” I chipped. “She is.” He agreed. Every morning I wake up, I bless my creator for giving he

    Kevin's POV It'd been a month since Em and I redecorated my place. I appreciated her help around the house. It was beginning to look more of a house than an office space. I'd convinced her multiple times, to stay over, let us enjoy what we'd created, but one thing or the other always up, and fucked the plan up. Plus I had to travel to multiple places, and I was mostly away for the month I just got back from Melbourne, and I think I had the most romantic gift for her. I'd curated a photo album, a cute little pink one containing all the pictures I ever took when we were working on the house together I also had a box of preserved roses. The old lady tried to force it down my throat, and I felt it was a bit too unnecessary till I discovered what it symbolizes. I had it all arranged in the new Nissan Versa car I'd parked in the garage of the apartment. I told her I was gonna come a day after I actually planned, and I tipped Casey off massively, to reveal that Emma had a little we

    Chase's POV “You say this is a smart thing to do?” I asked Kayla. “What do you think?” The poor girl was probably too tired of being in my drama. “Never mind.” I said. “I'll just do it later, I don't want the pressure.” “That means me.” She put a hand on her chest and nodded in understanding. “I get it.” “Don't take it that way.” I said, holding her close, “It'd just be too much for you, and I don't want that.” I said. “I get it.” She said, “I'll see you later then.” Kayla stayed in the dorms, so she wasn't gonna be going out with me. We've kinda restricted ourselves to just school, and sometime, I visited her dorm. She never came to my apartment. Said it was still too raw on her. “Take care.” I said, and let her go. We were done for the day, and it was already almost evening. I decided to stroll back to my place, since there was nothing to rush home to. “What's up?” A bold girl said, looking at me and batting her eyelashes. That was literally the last atten
