Zach POV. I groaned as the black mask placed over my face was ripped off, the bright light in the room making me wince, while Andrianna cursed beside me, as she struggled around in her bonds. I took in the situation, tested the strength of the binding and when it gave a little, I knew a little work on the knot would get it to loosen in time, that was if I didn't get shot before. Andrianna and I must have had the same thought as Arielle spilled everything she knew to us because we both rushed off to look for Vega, thinking that Ray was going to go for her. We had been searching everywhere when someone called to say they had her and I had gotten so furious and scared that they were going to hurt her that I didn't think everything through as I followed their instructions to a T. I glanced around the room, searching for Vega, my heart pumping erratically in my chest. I couldn't bear it if I saw Vega slumped over somewhere, hurt or dead. I inhaled deeply when I noticed that it was only
*** Standing in front of the most popular boy in school was more nerve-wracking than I thought it would be, the butterfly fluttering through my tummy was almost unbearable, but being the brave girl I was, there was no stopping my love confession. The love letter clutched tightly felt wet as I thrust it toward him, a smile on my face."Ryan, I love..." My voice faded as he started laughing, his shoulders shaking really hard as if I was the funniest thing he'd ever seen. His friends joining in the laughter added more salt to my already bleeding heart.Ryan stepped close to me, his face becoming monster-like. "I won't ever date someone as hideous as you and please try to brush your teeth, your breath fucking stinks," he said and the roar of laughter that followed floated right for me like darts of an arrow.******I jerked awake and cursed as my alarm shrilled through the room. "Fuck!" That was the most horrible moment of my life and why my subconscious choose to torture me with it so ear
A Lamborghini Aventador spider was what I rolled with. Yeah, I rolled with it, cause its not mine duh. Because in what language could I even afford a scooter, talk more of a Lamborghini.It was my friend's car. Andrianna always changed cars like she altered her clothes. Her parent was in the oil business; well that's what she told me, and I believed her fifty percent. I've never met them so I was not sure if it was true or not, not that she had any reason to lie to me. Yup!. She had this expensive condo that made me drool, every time I went over to her place. She lived like a rich mafia princess, just waiting for her prince charming to sweep her off her feet.We were like two different people, yet we clicked on the very first day we met. The circumstances were favorable for me but It was a disaster for her. She was in her white Balenciaga when the red dragon decided to make an appearance; period people, menstruation. The red dragon. I came to the rescue with my ugly brown sweater befor
Capital_boring. Revenue preservation and distribution_more boring. Is the professor hot, young, and every girl's wet dream_fuck yeah!. I grinned at him anytime he looked in my direction. He turned to write something on the board, his shirt riding up a bit. I see the other girls blatantly ogling him and almost screaming in their seats.No drooling. I warned myself trying to listen to what he was explaining. He was distracting. But I also already knew half of what he was saying, so I didn't need to force my brain to concentrate. The lecture finished just in time for lunch hour, and Mr hotness decided to assign us to research ways on how to maximize our resources. I mean ok like school isn't stressful enough, we have to take more work home. We all trooped outside, friends moving off in pairs while I stood alone. I'm minding my business when someone knocked my textbook out of my hands. I whirled to face the culprits, then took a suffering breath as they turned out to be who I thought they
I peeked into my room at the door, with Andria behind me; I do it just to make sure the room can be occupied by humans like her. I'm shocked to see it spotless. Everything was arranged in its place. I pushed the door wider and ushered her in. She looks around my room, impressed. I wanted to go check the wardrobe just to see if my clothes are all clean, but I played it cool.Andrianna grinned at me, breathing in deeply."Your mom is an Angel. Who would have thought this room could look this good" she flopped onto the bed, making a blanket angel."I did all this!" I lied through my teeth. The look she gave me was all too knowing. "Alright. Alright. I'll try to be cleaner so stop fussing already" I flopped to the floor dramatically. I was so exhausted."There's a new bet on campus. Guess the amount" she told, sitting up, her eyes afire. "I curled in on myself. "Do I have to... I'm not a gambler" I whined, before uncurling to look around for my snack bag. Is this how it feels to be hungry
"You shat it out, but I can't hear a word you say. Screaming loud, not saying much" I giggled as I sang the wrong lyrics again, I watched it on F******k, and it was so funny that it popped into my head at random times throughout the day. It was so fun to do, so sue me. No one was innocent in this aspect.I'm in a fair mood this morning cause it's day one of my covert operation. I parked my hair up as I stepped out the front door.Andria stood beside her car, waiting for me. She managed to look impressed with my new outfit. I was pretty satisfied myself as I stared at myself in the mirror. I wore a black loose top with jeans and black boots."What's the occasion. You look better than most days". She complimented but pointed at my outfit dismissively."Can you be nice just for two minutes? Gahhh. Not that you asked, but it's day one of operation get Zach Dante. I shouldn't look too bad right?" I batted my lashes prettily. Andrianna faked gag "I don't have the stomach for this. We're get
I give up. I knew it has been like a day but everything just seemed so bleak. First off I found out this betting shit had some ridiculous organizers, just so everyone gambled legally. The number of girls willing to join in increased until the bet was raised to one hundred thousand dollars. It was huge, hence why I was giving up. Can I even compete with those rich girls? I mean look at my plain ass. Once I sign those documents, my money is never coming back. If I lost, that was it. No refund, no nothing. Taking out money from my savings was going to bite me in the ass. Literally."You've been sighing nonstop. It's irritating " jake complained picking up an empty can behind a tree."Oh my bad. Me overthinking the stupid bet and stuff is making me sigh so much, so excuse me for making you feel miserable with me".He regarded me skeptically. "You're in a sour mood, I see" he pointed out and I gasped."Omg, you noticed. And here I thought I was being subtle about it."Jake rolled his eyes,
I set to the task the next day because I had to win this come rain or shine. Thunder rumbled overhead, making me flinch."Jeez, I was just kidding. Chill already" I muttered at the dark cloudy sky. Why the weather chose to be so gloomy was beyond me. Was this an omen or something? Maybe I should visit a shaman, and confirm if I'm on the right path. Oh wait, I don't believe in those things. Haha, forgot for a second there.Appearing in places he was, was way easier than I expected. I was at the sports center during his practice and I almost squealed as we made eye contact. The upside of this whole stalking job that I'd gotten myself was that he was rarely alone which was not surprising. I mean, he's Zach freaking Dante. If he was alone, that's when I'd be worrying. But I needed him alone for my plan to work tho, so it was getting frustrating.I got my chance in the library. He came there to relax, cause the dude didn't pick up any book. He was bored with all the attention I guess.I mad
