~ KIAN's pov ~
I woke up the next day with a serious headache. "Ugh my head, how did I get in here?"
I sat up, glanced at the time to discover it was past 11 in the morning. Fuck!! I'm late for work.
How could I have slept in?
I turned to the right to see Az sleeping peacefully. My eyes caught on a red stain on the sheets making me freeze.
The hell?
I didn't force myself on her, did I?
In other to confirm, I slowly raised the duvet from her body only to see her stark naked. Not only that, I can see bruises on her skin.
Oh shit!
What have I done?
Just then, she rolled over and her eyes opened. She winced slightly making my heart ache. Damn it!! I f*cked up!!
She shrank back when she met my gaze which shows she's afraid of me. Oh God, did I hurt her that much?
"Azra, I'm so
~ JAZMINE's pov~Waking up the next day, I thought about what I did last night and flushed.Gosh!I can't believe I acted so cheap, I actually forced myself on him and he... He rejected me! He did that even when I was almost nude in front of him. How awesome is that? He was right about one thing though, I would have hated myself and him if we did it.It's a good thing he stopped.Thinking about how he tucked me to bed made my heart warm. I'll admit that Aaron is a nice guy, he's totally different from Daniel.I can't believe I've been acting rudely towards him for the past few months but now I'm going to change It, starting right now.Lesley was right, I need to give him a chance, maybe he's my Mr right...who knows?I went to the bathroom, did my morning business, and showered. A
~ AZRA's pov ~His eyes ran down my body "That's right, I didn't get a chance to see you properly last night. But I will today" his eyes locked on mine "Strip."I let go of her hand and waited patiently for her. Yeah, you could say I'm still mad. I thought I'll be able to vent out my anger by going out but looking at her face, I suddenly became mad.She bit her lips pitifully"I already admit that I'm wrong. I shouldn't have done that Kian, I'm sorry. Look, I'll do anything you want, anything... just don't raise your voice at me okay? I know behaved foolishly last night but you can't blame me for this, will you? I was lonely, curious and I wanted you! But what did you do? You keep putting me at arm's length, with only me in this mansion where else do you want me to go? What else did you expect me to do? Of course, it's to come up with this idea" I yelled with tears streaming down my face.
"Surprise? What's that?"He grinned and showed me papers "I found a solution for your staying at home problems.""You did?" I blink taking the papers from his hands."Yeah, after thinking it through, I realize it isn't right for you to stay at home all by yourself, if you had a certificate, it'd have been much easier for you to get a job or something. So why don't you further your education?Your dad said you passed your GPA scores are high so I applied for a university here in California, it's one of the best universities here I'm sure you'll love it. And oh yes, I chose your favorite course, arts. I never knew you liked drawing. So, what do you say? Do you like it?" he asked excitedly.One minute passed, I didn't say anything. The second... Third..."Azra? Say something..."After digesting what he just said, I became somewhat flustered. "Wait what? You alread
Aaron's Pov"You're so cute" she muttered kissing me on the cheek. We both gasp, surprised by her actions.After asking if she trusted me, she answered"Yes."I kissed her while pretending to make out by the roadside, that was how we escaped. Right now, we're standing on the porch when she suddenly kissed my cheeks.I watched as her face heated "Uh i... I'll be going inside" she said and quickly entered the house.I shook my head, chuckling as she left. Yeah, I must admit, Jazmine is fun to be around.I was still thinking about this when I perceived something, gas.Why the hell am I perceiving gas?Suddenly, I remembered Daniel and cursed. "Shit!! Jazmine!!"I rushed inside the house, to see her standing in a daze. Without thinking, I pushed her to the ground, using my hand to support her, and then covered her with my body."Boom!"Just then, the gas from the kitchen
~ AZRA's pov ~Five girls surrounded me the moment I alighted my bike."Hmm look who we have here if it isn't Aria. Didn't we warn you not to return to this school again?"I glanced at everyone one of them, took my helmet with me, and instead of answering, I ignored them while strolling to the school entrance."Hold on, did she just ignore me? And where on earth did she get this bike from? Aria, stop right there!!!"I was still walking when someone pushed me. I stumbled, before I could catch my balance, another person slapped me hard on the face.My fist clenched. Okay, that's it.I stared at the girl who hit me for a while before asking"Did you just hit me?"She raised her brows "Obviously, and I'll do it again and again if you don't give me a reason for returning""Apologize, "I said
"Haha you guys shouldn't mind me, I heard this was a ' business meeting' so, by all means, please continue."A full minute passed, no one made a sound.I leaned on Kian's body while using my hand to play with his dark shiny hair."What? You guys should carry on, I don't mind waiting"The bitch coughed"Um Kian I think..."Before she could finish her sentence, I cut her off. "Kian? Why are you calling him by his name? It's a business meeting, isn't it? Mr. Creed, it doesn't sound bad does it?" I snapped.The girl's eyes locked on mine. I raised my brows at her, waiting.Clearing her throat she said"Yes yes, Mr. Creed, I'll be on my way now" she said and quickly walked out of the office leaving Kian and me alone.In my mind, I was doing a victory dance. Ha! Score one for me. Mmn, I loved the way I handled
~ ARIA's pov~I was laying in my room when I heard a knock on my door. "Ari? Are you in there?"It was Mandy.Sighing, I went to unlock the door for her."Hey"She glared at me"Hey? Just hey? Is that the only thing you have to say?"I frown"Uh yeah? Why do you look so mad? Did something happened at school?""Why do I look mad?" she puffed up her face"You even need to ask that? Don't you know what you've done?"I didn't reply. I could only stare at her feeling confused. What did I do now?Mandy and I are besties, more like sisters. We hardly fight or quarrel so it's weird seeing her this way."Firstly, this morning, you asked me who am I. That wasn't enough, you also left school without waiting for me? Ari, when did you start doing that? And what's with all t
~ Aaron's pov ~It's been a week after the fire incident and everything has been going well a little. The police haven't found any trace of Daniel which left Jazmine in a constant state of fear.She even took a month's leave from work.The next day, we went back to her house to check the remains of what was left. Thank goodness the fire service came on time so most of her things were safe, most.Even at that, we didn't go back to the house, we remained at the hotel.Right now, we were both sitting in front of the television, with popcorn in hand, searching for the movie we would watch."Oh yes, let's watch this cartoon, The Simpsons.""Hell no! Choose something else.""Barbie?""No"
