When I and Jasper arrived at the apartment, I saw Liam in the living room playing a video game with Ethan. I then remembered that he took my car leaving me stranded. I walked up to him and dragged the ps from his hands, making Ethan to win him. "what's your problem you bitch?" Liam snapped angrily at me. "I was just about to beat this amateur here" he pointed at Ethan. Ethan chuckled and said "yah! but that amateur beat you". Liam then glared at me. "I have somewhere to be at now, leave the door open for me when I return" Jasper said and then left the house. Liam who was still angry said "so do you care to tell me your reason for doing what you did?" "you took my car, leaving me stranded" I replied him, not hiding the fact that I was mad. I can swear that I saw Ethan's eyes flash with hurt, I wonder why. Liam got up from the couch "I would be doing more of that, so you better get used to it. Goodnight bro" he said to Ethan and then went upstairs, jerk! I turned to leave
"were is the party located at?" I asked. We have been walking for about 15mins now and we were yet to locate the place. "it's close by, we would soon be there" Riley answered me. After 5 more minutes, we arrived at a house, the house was close by to the school. "whose house is this?" I was curious, and also, so that incase I was lost I could call the cops and tell them whose house I was in. "Raphael, Riley's brother" Jasmine replied me. "and you need to relax, or haven't you been to a party before?" Why would she ask me that? I've gone to all sort of parties back in LA, but not a random persons party. "I have been to tons of parties" "great, for a second I thought you were a nerd, and Jasmine's description of you didn't suite you at all" Sasha said with her stupid accent, while I rolled my eyes. "yah! I thought so too, cus if you are, you better head back home, I wouldn't want you to ruin my brother's party" the other bitch said, and she and Sasha went inside the house.
When I got home, I went to my room and fell on my bed, I didn't even have the strength to take off my clothes, I just dozed off. The next morning when I woke up, my head hurt, I was having a hangover. it hurts so much. I tried getting up from my bed but I couldn't, when I turned around I saw a glass of water and a medicine on my lampstand, I quickly took it and swallowed it. "you came back drunk at midnight, so I thought I'd keep this for when you wake up" I saw Ethan standing at my door. "thanks, now I feel better. Sometimes I wonder why one must always have a hangover whenever they drink" He chuckled "and that's why teenagers shouldn't drink" I rolled my eyes "yah, like they would ever listen" then we both burst out laughing. "you should probably get ready for school, you wouldn't want to get late on your first week" he said with his signature smile. "I would rather get more sleep, who needs school anyways"I said and layed back down to sleep. "it's 7am, so you better
The moment I stepped foot inside the school hallway, everybody stopped what they were doing and turned to stare at me. I ignored them and walked to my locker. As I walked towards my locker I began hearing whispers. "so this is her" "yes, she is his new s**t" "I wonder how Tracy took the news" "I even heard that she had s** with him at the party" "she has no shame" "I also heard that she is pregnant" "she just got here and has already stolen my love, who does she even think she is" "I can't wait for Tracy to deal with her" Okay, what the real f**k? We had s**? Yah, that's highschool for you, filled with wannabes, spreading fake news everywhere, cus from what Jasper told me we only kissed, and if someone took my virginity I would know, and pregnant? Gosh people are so stupid. I didn't care about what they said about me, I took my books that I would be needing and went to my first class. My first class was s** education, I wonder why it is s subject, and it is even co
Barbie's POV After my last class for the day, I had to go for my art class, the extracurricular activity given to me. I have already skipped it since this week, so I can't skip it again, else I would have. "so do you have any extra class?" Dolly asked me. "yah, art" I made sure I didn't hide the fact that I hated it in my voice tone. She gave a toothy grin "really, but I have never seen you before?" Oh, so she was in art class, I guess I wouldn't be hating it there. "about that, I have never attended it, this would be my first time" "I'm sure you would love it, trust me. Now let us get going" she pulled me with her. When we got inside, we took a sit by the window, so that I could be looking outside instead of paying attention. After sometime the class was filled up and the teacher walked inside. "I can see some new faces here, looks like the authority has done some work" I scoffed, authority my foot. "for today's class, we would be doing a project and it would be in gro
I stopped by my car after school, I needed to leave this place. The chaffeur opened the door for me, and I got in, and obviously Liam was in the car. The chaffeur took off to our apartment. "so you and Jasper are a thing" I looked at him trying to check for any reaction from his face, but there was none. "is that a question, or you are just stating the obvious?" "the obvious? oh, so the rumors are true" he said while I rolled my eyes. "what rumors? people are saying stuffs about me? OMG! I have to transfer schools, my identity has been ruined" I said sarcastically. "I think you should also change town, so that I wouldn't have to see you again, or maybe country too" jerk! "so, why are you so interested in this art club?" I decided to start up a conversation with him. He looked at me for a moment and then kept his head straight. "just cus we are in the same car doesn't mean we are friends" "no, for the fact that you are in my car, you have to answer all of my questions"
My alarm blasted in my ears, I didn't even set one, so why the f**k is it even ringing. "ahhhhhhh!!!!" I screamed. I sat up and looked to my alarm table and saw that it was my phone that was ringing, I grumbled and picked it up ready to pour out my frustrations to the caller. "why would you be calling someone this early in the morning, are you that jobless that you want to just disturb someone's peace?" I yelled at whoever was calling me this morning. "young lady, is that how you speak to your mother? or is it because I'm not your favorite parent?" I heard my mum's voice over the phone. Just great. "I didn't know it was you, I mean any one that wakes up to their phone blasting would surely be mad. But anyways I'm sorry" "good, you are coming over to LA today, so get ready and Stanley is on his way to pick you up" she ranted. Wait, LA? "mum, you should have told me yesterday, I have plans. I'm calling dad now" "don't, it's his birthday and I want to throw him a surprise par
Barbie's POV During the ride to the airport, I decided to text Dolly to let her know that I wouldn't be going anywhere with her. After we reached the airport, we got into our flight and then after about 6.5 hours we reached LA. There was a Tesla model car waiting for us outside the airport. We got into it to and drove to my house. It took us approximately 45mins to reach the house. We got out from the car, I and my Uncle went to the front door and then rang the doorbell. While waiting I asked "so would I be leaving on Monday or Tuesday?" "depends on when your mum wants you to come back" he replied casually. The front door was then opened revealing our Butler, Franklin. Franklin smiled at us and made way for us to come in. After we were inside the house, he took I and my Uncle's box "I'll help you with that" "sure, where is my mum?" "she should be in the kitchen" he then took the luggages upstairs. "I'll go find mum, what are you going to do?" I asked my Uncle, when I wa
Barbie's POVI went to my maths class after the incident, which you already know about. My mind wasn’t even in the class, to be honest. Everything felt like a blur. I was late, and if not for the fact that I was actually friends with the teacher—Miss Clara—I would have gotten an F. My very first fail. Just imagining that sent a chill down my spine. Miss Clara gave me one of those looks that said, “You better explain later,” and handed me the test paper without a word. I mumbled a soft thank-you and took my seat.The test itself felt like a punishment. I kept glancing at the clock, watching the seconds drag by like molasses. My brain was swimming with everything but formulas and numbers. Somehow, I managed to finish, though I was sure my answers looked like a scrambled egg breakfast.After the test, I and Dolly walked to the cafeteria together. The hallway buzzed with other students, some chatting, some rushing like their lives depended on getting to their next class on time."So what
Maths class was next. At least I'm sure I'd Ace this one too, cus I'm pretty good in maths out of all others. I walked with Dolly through the hallway to get to maths class. She was ranting about our teacher being mean for giving us a test "I mean he is going to ask us to find his x again,, why is he so obsessed with her" she kept on ranting. We were halfway to the math block when I heard someone call my name. “Barbie.” I turned. Jasper. He stood a few feet away, hands in his pockets, eyes intense. There was always something about Jasper that felt like trouble wrapped in charm—sharp jawline, perfectly messy hair, and a gaze that made girls second-guess everything. Why does he always show up in my life? “Can we talk?” he said, glancing quickly at Dolly. "it's urgent" Dolly raised an eyebrow. “You okay? You don't have to go with him if you don't want to" I nodded slowly. “I’ll be right back.” Jasper rolled his eyes and pulled me away from her and into an empty classroom
I woke up not really wanting to go to school today, I sighed and stood up from the bed to start preparing so as not to get late.Monday mornings usually felt like a punishment. The kind of punishment that came with cold air, tight schedules, and the unbearable weight of Advanced Physics at 8 a.m. But not today.Today, I felt like sunshine. I felt happy, kinda, because of Ethan.Ethan showed up at my door right when I was done with dressing up. He wore a grey hoodie layered under a denim jacket, his curls slightly tousled like he’d run his hands through them one too many times. And when I opened the door, he smiled like I was the only thing that made sense in the world.“good morning angel" he handed me a flower which I happily accepted. "I'll bring you one of this everyday" I blushed, he was so romantic.He drove me to school today, so I didn't need to share a ride with Liam-the jerk. I felt that today wouldn't be so bad, like I had thought. I was having two tests today, maths and on
The next day I rushed to school, I just wanted the day to be over, so that I can go out for that date. I have been thinking about it since last night.Time moves in slow motion when you're waiting for something exciting. And right now, sitting in the back row of my History and Culture lecture, it felt like the clock was actively mocking me. I tapped my pen against my notebook, not taking in a single word the lecturer was saying. My mind was far away—specifically, 7:00 p.m. far away, when Ethan and I would finally go on our first real date. I have always hated history, and the fact that they put it in the morning today.As soon as the lecture ended, I made a beeline for the maths class. That was my best subject, so at least it wouldn't be boring.“Barbie!” Dolly waved the moment I stepped in. I smiled and dropped my bag next to her. “Hey, I kinda ditched history class, I had to do my maths homework, so rather than doze off in class, why not do it" she explained.I didn't really notice
Ethan took me back to school after the date, at least that's what I call it. I had history for last period, so I met Dolly by her locker. Her face brightened up when she saw me "this school is so boring without you" "don't flatter me" we both chuckled. I got my books and we both left for class. "so how was your date?" Dolly asked me. See it's not only me who sees it as a date. "it w..." I wanted to say but I stopped when u saw Jasmine walking inside the class frowning. Normally I wouldn't care, cus that's the kind of person I am, but some would say that Dolly had really changed me for the best. "hey Jas" She looked at me and smiled small "hey" she then took a sit next to me. "you must be the famous Dolly" she referred to Dolly. Dolly looked puzzled "famous?" I was also going to ask the same question. "never mind" she said as the teacher walked inside the class. The class was boring like every other history classes, I can't just wait to be done with this hell. After class
After Ethan had left the restroom, I felt bad. "what's the problem?" Jasper asked me because I wanted to leave the restroom after Ethan had left. "I need to go home, I'm really tired" I opened the door and left. He held my arm "I will come with you to get your car from the school, what kind of guy would I be if I just let you go by yourself" "thanks, but I know my way there, it isn't that far" I left the party, went to get my car, then went home. __________________________________ "what do you mean by you kissed Jasper?" Dolly asked. Right now I was by my locker telling Dolly about what happened last night. "I was drunk" I replied blankly. "you shouldn't have gone to that party. But did you explain to him what happened?" "he left, and I didn't see him at home this morning" "ugh! come on let's get to class, we would discuss this later" As I turned to leave I bumped into someone's chest, with the cologne I already knew who it was. "watch where you are going miss" Lia
After school I went to my locker to put my books back along with Dolly. While we were there Tracy walked up to us along with Julia and Julie smiling. "hi Barbie, I think you need to thank me for helping you today" I rolled my eyes at her, so dramatic. "don't you have anything to do rather than being a bitch?" "no! isn't that what you want me to say? look, I just want us to be friends, let's start afresh. I'm sorry for everything I have done to you" she pleaded. "really?" she nodded. "cool, but I'll pass, I don't want to be back stabbed like Lucy. I'll catch up with you later, come on Dolly" I closed my locker and walked away with Dolly. "that girl has no limits" Dolly said as we were both walking out of the school building. "OMG, I just got an idea, I think we should throw a party, we would use your house for it" "okay, what led to this?" "I have always dreamt of throwing one, I'll freshen up and come over, bye" she walked away. I sighed and walked over to my car. When I got th
Lucy's POV Everything would have worked, the principal announced about the missing funds, everything went out as planned. She sent staffs to search all lockers, and they found the money in Barbie's locker, but.... __________________________________ I was at my locker, so was everyone. The principal along with some staffs began the search, my locker was clean, but they found it in her locker. "I didn't put it in there principal Valencia" Barbie began explaining. "we would discuss this in my office" the principal said. Then a video was played on our notice screen. It showed how Barbie and Jasper was putting the money in Barbie's locker, I wonder who made that video. "to my office now!" But then something else happened, Tracy came out with Julie and Julia and knelt down in front of the principal. "Miss Valencia, Barbie is innocent, it was Lucy who stole the money, and blackmailed me to Halo her create that fake video" Tracy began. "yes, she wanted to pay Barbie back for steali
Barbie's POV I opened my eyes and it landed on the chandelier on the ceiling, where was I? oh, I remember, I was in my bedroom, I came here for my dad's birthday. I tried standing up, but my head hurts so much, I hate these stupid migraines. I stood up from the bed, deciding to get a tablet downstairs. But when I stood up, I saw a glass of water with a tablet on top of my lampstand, I quickly picked it up and drank it. I thank whoever did this for me. I freshened up after that, then went downstairs. I saw my mum in the kitchen reading a book, while the chefs were cooking. I went to the kitchen to eat an apple. "some people just sits in the kitchen, so it'll look like they are doing the cooking" I whispered loudly so that she would hear it. I saw her drop her book on the table "hey, is that what you say to your mum in the morning?" I sighed "good morning mum" "you know I wouldn't blame you for not saying that earlier, I mean not all of us had a good morning, some of us wo
