"Do I make you wet, Catherine?" ******* She was the girl he never forget and he was the boy she couldn't remember.

Catherine's POV:
I fixed my shoes and grabbed my bag from the bed, I walked towards the door and took a deep breath, my uncle was transfered to New York last week and I got transferred to Riverside high school too, my first day in school and I was already getting anxious.
I closed my eyes and inhale then exhaled harshly.
You can do this Cat, you can do it.
I opened my eyes and unlocked the door, standing in front of my door was aunt Vivian, my uncle's wife. She glared at me and stepped away from my reach.
She never liked me,and to be honest I never liked her either.
Maybe at some point I did loved her but as time passes when I got a glimpse of the real her I hated myself for liking her.
"What are you staring at? It is 8:10am, your first day in school and you're late!" She yelled at me her hand swinging towards me. I started running down the stairs, I jumped the stairs and quickly rushed to the door.
"You better come back immediately after school, you have to braid my hair." I heard her say but I ignored her and ran out of the house.
When I got to the street ten blocks away from my uncle's house I sighed softly.
Few minutes later I walked through the school gate and gasped when I saw the garage, everywhere was filled up with cars.
I thought this is a high school, why is these cars needed?
I glanced around the compound while walking towards the main building, the school was nothing like my old school, my old school was average but my new school looked like a castle.
Why will uncle Morris send me to a school like this?
He doesn't care, he sees me as a burden in his life. I'm just grateful that he hasn't throw me out yet.
When I got to the main building, I wasted five minutes searching for the principal's office. As soon as I found it, I walked inside the office.
"Good morning, Sir." I greeted, the man looked up from his computer and nodded his head.
"A transferred student, Catherine Meyers." I introduced myself, the principal stood up from his chair and smiled widely at me.
"It's so nice to have you here with us, Miss Meyers."
***
I walked out of the principal's office and glanced down at my uniform, a short yoke skirt and a white shirt with a black red tie and a black jacket.
More beautiful than my previous school uniform.
I glanced down at the map in my hand and started walking to the direction of my classroom.
I walked through the door and noticed the teacher's voice dead down, raising my head up I could see the students watching me. I quickly looked down and fixed my eyes on the ground.
"Miss Meyers, please find a seat for yourself." The teacher said, I nodded and quickly glanced around the room, I saw a vacant seat and quietly sat down on it. I unzipped my backpack and brought out a book and a pen then zipped it back and placed it at the back of my chair.
"Hi," a voice whispered to me, I glanced around and my eyes came in contact with that of a brunette. Pointed nose and a full pink lips.
She looked so beautiful.
"Hi," I responded.
"I am Talia, Talia Scott. What is your name?"
"Catherine Meyers,"
"Well Catherine, nice to meet you." I nodded my head and turned back to face the teacher whose eyes were fixed on I and Talia.
"Miss Meyers, I don't tolerate tardiness in my class." She reprimanded me, I blushed and nodded my head.
First day in school and the teacher was already reprimanding me. This will be a whole lotta ride.
Another person walked inside the class and I heard the students gasped, I turned around to see what they saw.
Two teenage boys walked inside the class like they own the school, they were both...oh shit! Both dead handsome, I couldn't even look away from them, especially the first one, he had a rough look to himself, his hair was wild and he carried himself like a king.
When I was about to look away he raised his head up and his eyes met mine.
I gasped and my face heated up, I looked away and cursed myself inwardly.
He saw me staring at him, shit!
I slowly look back and our eyes met again, he was still watching me.
Oh God.
Talia pinched my thigh and I whipped my head around to face her.
"Don't." She whispered.
"What?"
"Don't look at him, don't give yourself away."
"I don't understand what you are saying, don't look at who?" I asked frustratedly.
"Don't look at Ace, you'll be sorry if you grab his attention." She whispered.
Ace.
So his name is Ace.
"I wasn't looking," I lied, Talia shrugged casually and bite on her own.
"They are of no good, Ace and Liam. Stay away from them."
Our English class ended and Talia grabbed her backpack.
"Which class do you have next?" She inquired.
"Chemistry practical,"
"The next one hour is ours, come let me show you around,"
I grabbed my backpack and joined Talia and the other students walking out of the class.
"So this is the football field, Riverside high school is very good." Talia said as we pass the football field, she had shown me the basketball court, the swimming pool and the cafeteria.
The school was amazing, I have never seen anything like that before.
"I felt pressed, I need to pee."
"Oh shit! Quickly go to the restroom before anyone come there, it is the boys restroom." She said and nudge me ahead. I practically ran to the bathroom and slammed the door shut, after easing myself a soft sigh left my lips.
I stood up from the toilet seat and walked towards the basin to wash my hands. When I worked out of the restroom I saw Ace standing in a corner, a few steps from me.
My heart skipped and started beating fast.
When he noticed my presence, he started walking towards me.
He stood in front of me and grabbed me by my neck.
I gasped and grabbed his hand, trying to remove it from my neck.
"You are for me!" He sneered.
I'm for him?

101"Is that true?" Veronica Hampton asked and Ace hummed softly." We visited the hospital earlier today and the doctor made it known to us." He responded calmly and glanced at Catherine. "Do you want to speak with her?"Catherine shook her head frantically but Ace casually shrugged his shoulder.She still found it extremely hard to make a conversation with Veronica Hampton."Yes, of course. Put her through." She uttered. Ace handed over the phone to a shaky Catherine and she took it, just then Anitra walked out of the kitchen."Hello, Mother." She greeted her." Ace told me that you're pregnant." Veronica Hampton said and Catherine nodded." Yes, ""I am glad." Veronica Hampton uttered softly which threw Catherine off guard. She wasn't expecting such response from her. "A young Hampton. It has been long overdue. Congratulations on your pregnancy, Catherine Hampton. I'll send a professional nurse down to London that will always look after you and make sure that my grandchild is healt
100After the judge declared Alexander Meyers and his wife guilty as charged, things have been significantly different in Catherine's life.She felt more at peace with herself. She stopped feeling guilty of being the only one that survived the accident.She feels more relaxed to stand before her mother-in-law.She stood outside their apartment building, waiting for Ace to drive out their car from the garage but she wasn't just waiting, she was lost in thought as well.For the past three days she hasn't been herself. She missed her period the other month and this month as well, she wondered if she had an infection. She fell sick constantly and missed a lot of lectures. She hated the fact that Ace missed his lectures as well because of her."Get inside the car and stop thinking." Ace called her out.Catherine sighed softly and walked over to him. "Sorry," she mumbled before getting inside the car.When Ace joined her inside the car, he took her hand in his and lightly squeezed it. "I do

Veronica Hampton was sitting down on her office, her laptop in front of her as she watch the trial. "Your honor, Catherine Meyers Hampton was loved by my client. He provided for her. Sent her to the best school in the whole of United States of America. If my client had anything else planned for her he wouldn't have let her acquire education. My client is innocent." The defendant attorney claimed. "Objection, your honor." Said the plaintiff as he stood up from his chair. "Overruled, Defendant, you can continue."

98Ace was laying down on the bed pressing his phone. He had a zoom meeting with his mother and some employees a few minutes ago and he was just intending to get out of the bed.The bedroom door was pulled open and Catherine walked in. She was wearing a black short and a white camisole, her hip length golden hair was packed up in a high ponytail and her face free of make up.“You done with the meeting, Babe?” She whispered asked as she walk into the room. Ace's mouth lifted in a small smile as he tapped his side of the bed for her to sit on.Catherine chuckled at his gesture and slowly walked up to him, she slipped her feet out if her slippers and climbed on the bed. She placed her hand on his chest and stared inside her phone. "How was the meeting?" She inquired curiously.Ace slowly caress her back as she talk to him. The best leisure for him is hearing her talk. Her voice sounds like music to his ear and her touch set his body aflame. The kind of attraction he felt for her was tota
97"What happened?" Catherine asked and took the phone from Anitra."Police reject the bail of Chelsey Black." She read out loud and chuckled. "This is mother's handwork."Ace took her hand in his and let out a deep breath. "She deserves whatever Mom will throw her way, she shouldn't have touched you at all.""That is by the way, are you both leaving already?" Anitra questioned and Ace hummed. "We're done for the day." He replied.*****It has been two weeks since Ace and Catherine returned to London and resume college, a lot of things had happened within the two weeks and one if them was that Chelsey Black was fined £100,000 for physically assaulting Catherine Meyers Hampton. Catherine and Ace were done with their classes for the day and we're going to the parking lot, the security team following them at the back. As soon as they got to the parking lot she got a phone call from her Mother."Hello, Mom?" "Hi, Catherine. How are you?" Mrs Meyers asked. Catherine got inside the car
96Ace sat down on the bed beside Catherine and took her hand that has all sorts of wire fixed on it in his hand and sniffed in.“I'm sorry, Butterfly.” He whispered. He should have cut out the bullshits and had Chelsey walked out of the restaurant, but for some time he thought that it was cute seeing Catherine stand up for herself.He had no idea that Chelsey would go to the extent of physically harming her, he never thought of the possibility of such thing happening.The door was gently pulled opened and a nurse walked in. She smiled at Ace and walked around to Catherine's side of the bed. "Good afternoon, Mr Hampton."she greeted him."Good morning, Nurse. " Ace responded calmly. It has been more than 6 hours and Catherine was yet to wake up. It scared him a lot.The nurse checked the drip connected to Catherine's body and checked her body temperature then write it down on her chart.."She will wake up very soon. Don't worry."
