Loveliest regrets 28. Trip
Briar's POVA few days had already passed and as planned, we got our trip details soon. The students were given choices from a trip to Liverpool or Brighton for a week and most of the students chose Liverpool. The trip was in three weeks and we were allowed to call home and order the things we want to take to the trip.Time flew pretty quick and it was just a day left for our trip. We didn't even sleep the night before the day we had to leave because we were just too excited. The entire night, we just planned the things we would do there. I asked mom to send all the things I wanted a few days prior.With the clothes, accessories and my camera, she also sent me extra money for me to buy some souvenirs and anything I wanted. Another reason why I was happy was the fact that, Mrs. Jones was also accompanying us on the trip. She even said that she has arranged a party for all the students as it's our last year. She's a real sweetheart.Our flight was at eight in the morning and we were ask
Loveliest regrets 29. Hotel room
Gareth's POVWe soon reached our destination. The trip was just starting and I was already finding it hard to control myself. I couldn't resist to look at briar. She looked so damn gorgeous. I thought that coming on this trip would be a way for me to get over her, but it seems like I was falling for her even more. I can't seem to think of anything else but her.On the trip, I had the job of taking all the students to the bus, according to their sections. We had a total of almost a hundred students to handle. Just thinking about the number gives me a headache. But then knowing that Briar was also one of them, I did make sure to take the responsibility sincerely. Especially knowing how last time, me not being aware of that man had been meandering with wrong intentions, attested my senses to be a lot more prudent than they already were.My eyes roamed around to make sure that all the girls were in cues and checking out of the airport safely. I was in the very end, taking everyone with me
Loveliest regrets 30. Affection
Briar's POVDo I really like him?I don't know if this was just mere infatuation anymore because I could sense something deeper than just surface attraction. I've realised that his presence, make me alert and aware of my surroundings. I get way too affected when he's around. I try to look my best, because I like when his eyes stay on me. I love the feel when he only looks at me; when he gives me priority over everybody else.And likewise, I absolutely hated it when I found him looking at someone else, or the reason of his smile was not me, but someone else. I want him to be near me, close enough. I liked how I get goosebumps when he's around. I enjoyed the rush in my belly and the heated-up cheeks I get when he was the subject of any conversation.Now, do you call it just infatuation or something more? I don't know. But I know that this feeling was growing very quickly, and soon I won't be able to control it.We were dragging our suitcases to our room. Luckily, we got a double room su
Loveliest regrets 31. Two Keys
Gareth's POVWhy am I so stupid? Or do I really lose my mind when she's around? Why can't I act like an educated adult? It was funny how I knew the answer too well to these questions, yet I kept asking myself in a sheer attempt of getting a different answer each time. But well, it remains the same. It’s her.I left her in the room as I don't want her to face any unwanted troubles, especially because of me. She would be coming after me, when there will be no one to notice her. Again, a similar, well-known thought appeared in my head. Just maybe if I hadn't really kissed her in the first place, everything wouldn’t be as chaotic. Every time I do something like this to her, I just push her farther away from me.Had I really made up my mind that, I want to keep her close? What am I even thinking about? How can I... How can I just fall for someone who's literally half my age? Have I really reached a stage where I can’t control me and my emotions for her anymore? It was like a trampoline of s
Loveliest regrets 32. Late night stroll
Briar's POVMr. Wilson came on the right time, otherwise I don't know what would I have done without him. The entire situation was pretty much taken care of, by him but recalling how anxious we both were in that situation still leaves me in goosebumps. Though I had in my mind that I would give him his room keys back, the whole trip to the museum just went in my failed attempts to admire him from afar.Yes, knowing he was the prettiest existence in that building, I couldn’t focus on anything but him. As if his face was a beautiful combination of sunlight trapped under his gold skin, with his aura reflecting the surface of a moon. He shines unrealistically, emitting a ray of allure just like his perfect cologne. It was actually infuriating to admit how madly attracted I was to him.He owns that fragrance of his and knowing no matter how many whiffs I take off of his surroundings, I am never truly satisfied. I tried taking pictures of him, trying to remain in disguise but the camera didn
Loveliest regrets 33. Only for you
Gareth's POVA bleak midwinter’s day; it was hitting my skin a little too hard. The rimy lamps in the garden did make the ambience look pretty, but it was an indication of the chilly air covering the place. It wasn’t snowing, not according to the weather forecast that I read; it wouldn’t be snowing anytime soon. Not at least while we will be touring around the city.The trip was most probably going to last for the next entire week and I was looking forward to it. Night was the only time I rest, but I was unsettled. Was it because of her? Yes, obviously. I just can’t help but get irritated by the fact that she was laying in a room right adjacent to mine, just a few feet distance and yet she was horribly afar.I had a taste; just one bite and I’m sold to her. She’s unnecessarily addictive. Wish I could’ve fixed these issues up, but my heart crumbles like a glass. I can’t deny how I feel empty without her. I decided to take a few minutes and roam around the resort but I was already sneez
Loveliest regrets 34. Chaotic
Briar's POV Last night was tiring. We didn't sleep. Obviously, who sleeps on the trip, before dayspring when you hear the birds chirping? But I can’t deny how tiring it was. We were at the breakfast table in the hotel’s restaurant. I forced my eyes to open and encountered sleepy Bianca and Charlotte eating their food. Ariana's head was down resting on the table. She was sleeping. I refused to believe how we were supposed to get ready for our day in the next hour. We all looked high on air and water, because we didn’t drink, but we were close to collapsing on the floor any minute. Keeping the fork on the plate, I threw my head back, yawning. It was about a few seconds later when I felt something cold against my cheeks. I opened my eyes in shock and found Rosé sticking two freezing coke cans on my cheeks, laughing. I sighed, shaking my head. She gave me a kiss on my forehead, lifting my neck making me sit straight. "Don't throw your head back like that, you will have pain in your nec
Loveliest regrets 35. Friend
Gareth's POVPast midnight keyboard sounds could be heard as I was working on my laptop, when I suddenly heard some rustle outside the door. At first, I didn't care to see who's there thinking, 'Why do I care?' But realising the fact that I was the principal of a school and the bustle could be made by my students, made me jolt up.Shutting my laptop, I got up and was halfway to open my door, when the bell rang. I took a few more steps forward and lifted my hand up to open the gate. To my surprise I encountered something that I was expecting in the most unexpected situation."Gareth!" He said with a huge grin on his face.Dominic Anderson, a trusted associate, a business partner and most importantly, a close friend of mine. We shared many projects which led our friendship to get stronger, even after graduating from college together. Dominic is a kind of person who all the girls crush over, at least once in their lives. With his light golden-brown hair and a pair deep green ocean eyes a
