Chapter Thirteen
Ivy
Emily and I were just about to leave campus when my phone buzzed in my jeans' back pocket. At first I thought it was Cole calling me again. He has been calling for three days now. He probably noticed that I was avoiding him. After Brad thoughtfully called him from my number a couple of weeks ago he must have saved it as I did too and now he would call back but I didn't pick up and he left no vocal messages. It has been more than two weeks since we spoke last time slash kissed for the first time after what brad told me about his girlfriend. He also didn't bother showing up the day of the contest, so why was he calling me anyway. I thought it would be better if we didn’t socialize that much. I was mad at myself. Mad at how I was a hot mess between his arms, mad at how easily I was drawn to him and how I let him kiss me! Mad at how
Chapter fourteenIvy A few days later,Beating music, free beer, lots of people, and couples kissing and making out in the corners. Well, that’s what we commonly call a party. Do you want to know what I call it?CROWD; Yes merely a bunch of a noisy individuals. I know you guessed I hated people assemblies. they would describe me as a loner I know but I just hated when there were too many people in the same room trespassing my much needed personal space . If that could be a couple of miles I wouldn't mind.Back to the party...The one NCU held yearly after the finals. It was a thing .Each year there's a class that takes care of the preps and this year, it was mine.Although we could bring family, it was majorly a teenage party and we could invite friends.
Chapter FifteenSarah"I specifically told you to ditch the phone before coming up here you idiot ! now they can find out about us! " The woman fired in anger with nothing like distress in her last sentence."Ma'am I'm sorry I just heard someone coming so I had to hide " The tall blonde haired man apologetically stated bowing his head." Frank, who the hell did you see coming? Couldn't you say that before?" The woman barked at who appeared to be one of her executing minions for his misbehaving." But Ma'am you didn't give me a chance to tell you." His voice fading towards the end of his sentence"Ugh!" she yelped you're going to drive me crazy, speak up now hurry!" she groaned almost hysterically" I..it was her" he let out"What ? Her? Her who? "" The girl I sent the message to, she arrived b
Chapter SixteenIvyI rushed out of the party hardly able to breathe from the lump forming in my throat and the ache in my chest. I felt my heart pressed in its ribcage as the images came back to me.As soon as I set foot out of the stadium Cole grabbed my hand again and swung me to face him. His grip was hard to escape though his hand did not hurt me. I tried to make him let go of me by pulling my hand but to no end. He was stronger than I was and the muscular biceps and forearms he had were hard rock from training while I felt like a feather if compared to him.He brought his other hand to my cheek and I froze. The tears I was holding back before found their way out in a stream on my cheek, now that the night breeze brushed on my face I could feel them trickling. I tried to hold them back but it was useless.“Are
Chapter SeventeenColeI was on my way to the party at NCU when I heard someone screaming, the noise came from the other side so I went to check it out. I opened the door and it led me to the dorm rooms, I heard another noise so I slowly went up the stairs where I found someone's door open only then Sarah came from nowhere..."Hey baby" she smirked."Sarah, what are you doing here?" I asked; surprised she was here in the first place, she wasn't an NCU student.I heard a muffled noise but she pushed me into the room "Well, well, well! Look at you! So handsome and sexy in this shirt" She said her flirtatious mode on"What the hell are you doing?” she was up to something, I was almost sure but she shushed me, touching my lips with her long fake nails.I stepped back, my back reaching the wall to my utter dismay
Chapter EighteenIvyAfter finding Anna's phone, I went back to take some rest without saying much about last night. Cole called me non-stop the entire day but I never answered and when I arrived at my room, I found more missed calls from him. I looked at my phone bitterly and threw it on the bed. I did not want to deal with him right now. Especially after seeing him kissing his exIf it wasn’t because of them, I wasn't probably going to drown myself in alcohol and wake up sick this morning. If it weren’t because of him I wouldn't be feeling like crap right now. I held back a groan. I stripped off my clothes and changed into an oversized tee shirt that fell over my left shoulder. It was long enough to cover my hips and it felt comfortable to sleep in since it was practically summer time. I heard a small knock on the d
Chapter NineteenColeI can't believe I had just closed the door of Ivy's room behind me and walked away , I don’t even recall how I got inside my car and I‘ve been driving for quite some time now, so I parked aside because I needed to breathe.God, how could I? I still can't believe how I could resist; I don't even know how much more I can take.I was supposed to talk to her not kiss her! I shut my eyes close for while; my hands on the steering wheel. I was unsure thatshe would open that door. But when she did, I forgot all I was about to tell her.She was wearing a shirt, how am I supposed to focus, if she's half naked and sexy and hot as hell? With every curve of her body under that shirt, the way her long dark hair fell on the bare shoulder, her intoxicating lilac scent, her eyes,
Chapter TwentyCole"No!""You're an idiot! You should have slept with her" Brad shook his head in disapproval; I was taken aback. "Wow, what is wrong with you?" "No, what is wrong with you?" He seemed convinced that something was wrong with me"She's practically like your little sister; Jeez! I shook my head in disbelief""Yeah and you have a crush on her and If you slept with her you wouldn't be here drinking” was his platonic answer"Remind again me why I am friends with you?" I let out"Because I'm awesome, Now shut up and tell me why you didn't sleep with her, man she's hot you like her and she likes you " He went on, almost as if debating over the color of my favorite tee-shirt."You're unbelievable!" I shook my head. That was the last thing I expected Brad to say. He says stupid stuff sometimes; but
Chapter Twenty-One Ivy Sunbeams made their way through the transparent curtain of my window, and I buried my face under the sheets, not feeling ready to leave my bed just yet. I muffled a groan. I'm not a morning person, not today. I spent a shitty night and I did not want to face the world today. I wished I could just curl in my bed and never leave. The alarm of my phone goes on at exactly 07:00 am. Great ! I got off my bed, took a quick shower and dressed up before going to campus. On my way there, I noticed I forgot my earphones. Great! I stopped by the cafeteria to grab my usual tea for breakfast and while I was waiting at the queue I heard an annoying voice to my right and I rolled my eyes instantly before turning to face him. "Good morning your majesty" Eric bowed in my direction, always the same irrita
