I spent the rest of the day sinking into my thoughts. Mr. Joe Anderson was mad at me for agreeing to tutor Nathan.

Seeing him so furious killed something inside me. And I wanna fix that. I wanna appease him. But it'd mean telling the Professor that I didn't want to tutor Nathan.

But I can't do that. I might have enough nerves to challenge my peers but I don't have enough to flatly refuse an elder. And also, if he asks for reasons, what do I say? What do I tell him?

I don't know what to do. I'm restless. Sad. Nervous. Anxious!

After much thinking, I came to a decision.

The last class ended and I left the hall with just one destination in mind. The boys' locker room.

Nathan had to be there. I needed to talk to him. I stepped inside and was momentarily frozen by the number of guys here.

They all turned to me, and an insane amount of cheering and whistling followed.

“Look who came visiting. Willow Smokes in the house, boys!” One of them cheered. I never bothered learning their name

  • Her Innocence His Addiction    As long as it lasts

    I got ready for school, earlier than I should. Downstairs was empty, with no sign of Mum, which was great. I hurried out of the house, taking the first cab I could find. I gave him the address of where I was headed which was on a completely different route from my school. The address turned out to be an eatery. It was in the middle of a rich neighbourhood. I stared for minutes, unsure if I should go in there. It didn't look like a place for casual hangouts. But then it was the address given to me, so I had no choice but to go in and see if he was there. I paid the cabman and alighted from it. I was ushered in by very prim and expensive-looking waitresses. They asked for my name and led me to a table at the farther end of the room. “Dad!” I squealed when I saw him. He stood, smiling, arms spread apart for me. “My girl,” I ran into his arms, hugging him so tightly whilst shedding happy tears. Can't believe Mum's trying to starve me of this all my life. “Sit down, dear.” He pull

  • Her Innocence His Addiction    Shut up!

    I spent the night at Mum's house. The meeting with the lawyer ended a bit late and she begged me to stay over for the night. Dinnertime was always an awkward silence. I ate my spaghetti with tears in my throat. I didn't even want to look at her. I just wanna empty my plate and go to my room. “How's school, baby?” She broke the silence with her warm gesture of wanting to start a conversation. “Fine,” I mumbled. “Anything new happening?”“Nothing,” “Willow,” she sighed. “I'm trying here but you gotta help me out.”“I don't want to talk about my school, Mum. I just need to know what winning the case means. Does it mean I'm never gonna see Dad again?”She ruffled her hair, stayed silent for seconds and then nodded. I turned to my food but I couldn't eat it anymore. Tears already clogged my throat so badly. “He's bad for us, Willow. We don't need him. We'll be fine, I promise.”But I need him. I need my Daddy. I don't understand whatever fights they're having as adults. I just know

  • Her Innocence His Addiction    What?

    I was staring at the name on my phone's screen. Mr. Joe Anderson. I've been staring at it for minutes with a tempting thought to text him. I've never done that before but after the way he exited the dining area, I just can't help the thought. I just wanna know that he's not mad at me. Then again, since when should I be concerned if he's mad at me or not?My God. This is exhausting!I dropped my phone with a sigh, forcing my eyes closed. I'll just do it!!I sat up, grabbing my phone and clicking on the message icon.My fingers hesitated before they typed down a few words. *April thinks you're angry*April thinks he's angry? That sounded a bit…corny. But I couldn't think of a more neutral way to say it. To my shock, it beeped right back in a few seconds.*What do you think?*I thought for a while. *I think you were irritated by how loud we were*I waited, anxiously. It beeped. *I don't give a fuck about two giddy teenagers discussing boys*What does that mean? Another beep. I qui

  • Her Innocence His Addiction    What have I done now?

    “S…sir…” I stuttered, staring at him like he was a ghost. Maybe because I haven't properly seen him in a week. It's just glances, so looking at him like this feels new. He had a bland smile on his face, and he was staring at me, at Nathan, and at his grip on my hand. “Are you two done? We should get going, Willow,” he said, pointing at Nathan's grip. “Uh, we were detained, professor,” Nathan said, dropping my hand. “Not anymore. C'mon, Willow.”I walked stiffly to the door. He moved aside and I walked out of the hall. He followed seconds later. His bold strides behind me were making me very nervous. He wasn't even saying anything but I was already feeling the heat. We got to the parking lot and into his car. I struggled to put my seatbelt on because of my frantic fingers. I finally succeeded but he didn't start the car. His fingers were drumming on the wheel and his face was taut. The smile had vanished. Completely. “You wanna know how shocked I was when I found out you were in

  • Her Innocence His Addiction    Standing at the door

    “Is it just me or has Nathan Hunt been staring at you since we sat down?” April asked in a hushed tone, nudging me.“Huh?” I peered behind, looking at the sandy-haired, broody-eyed guy, Captain of the basketball team, leader of the most infuriating group of guys, a typical playboy, sitting a few seats away from us.Crazy enough, our gazes met. His lips thinned into a smile. I looked away instantly, slightly repulsed by the attention. I mean, I'm generally repulsed by male attention. It always seems lusty and superficial. The only one giving me a fever is a man way out of my league. Of all the guys in the world, why him?“He'll get over it,” I mumbled, trying to focus on the professor who was scribbling on the board.“Girl, c'mon. You need to loosen up a bit. Being uptight and strict won't get you a boyfriend.”“Who says I need one?” “Be for real, Willow. Everything about you screams ‘I NEED A BOYFRIEND’.”“You're crazy,” I chuckled. But it faded quickly. I've never really laughed or
