The third period was hectic and boisterous as I ran down the hallway to my locker before anyone could pick at me especially him.
I haven't had the chance to talk with Beatrice and I've tried calling her number during the weekend but she refused to pick, guess she's still angry with me.
I have to look for a way and apologize to her, I can't afford to lose the friendship I've been keeping for almost 6 years because of a psychopath.
I closed my locker after keeping my last book in it and ran to the library.
You may ask me why I'm running, it's all because of Lucas. I've been trying every possible way to avoid eye contact with him or even glance in his direction.
I had to stay stiff in all periods without turning or scratching my body, I've never felt so nervous like that in my life, and immediately the bell rang I would be the first to scoot out from class.
I go
"Can we talk about this, when we leave school," I said softly as Beatrice drew out her chair to seat. "No one would hear us here!" Beatrice smirked as she tapped her hands on the table. We sat at the far end of the canteen not where we normally seat but it was still a bit far from where Lucas, Jenny, and their crews always seat. "I still don't feel comfortable," I said glancing around my gaze scrutinizing the whole canteen looking out for him. "Sit down, Camilla!" Beatrice snickered as she threw a fried chip into her mouth. I sighed and drew out the chair sitting on it, knowing how stubborn Beatrice could be. "I'm listening," She spoke her gaze taunting me. "He took me to his home!" I started and she coughed grabbing the bottle of water quickly, gulping its contents. I knew she was silly that's why I w
It was another stressful day in the week and the hallway seemed crowded than it usually should be.I saw some students gathering up and shouting, some bringing out their phones taking pictures.I got curious, well something was telling me to mind my business but I disobeyed.I moved closer to the gathered teenagers as they kept laughing and shouting.I gasped as I saw a timid girl sobbing on the floor, I think she's from the junior class, well, I was a year senior for her.Then there stood the three crazy rascals, torturing and oppressing the poor girl.It was Jenny and her maniacs...Don't they have shame other than oppressing and bullying their inferior ones?"So are you telling me you weren't trying to steal my precious diamond bracelet?" Jenny asked angrily as she fisted the girl's hair in her hands.
I couldn't concentrate in class the whole day, as my mind drifted to what Lucas had said earlier. I had expected him to give an explanation but he walked away, leaving me staring in astonishment. What had happened to Lola? Was he mistaking me for another person? Oh God! What's all this? And even though I looked like the person he mentioned, does that give him guts to mistreat me anyhow. I sighed restlessly and felt moody throughout the maths period and I was glad it was finally over. Many questions were running through my head, I wanted to know who was this Lola of a person he mentioned, did he hate her so much as he did towards me... I needed answers but I dared not walk up to the devil himself and start asking him questions about it. Everything was okay at least for a moment and each time I mistakenl
"I heard what happened this morning, Camilla!" Beatrice said as we placed our food on the table. "That Jenny of a girl is a bitch, she's driving me crazy, She's going to make me kill her and bury her 10ft into the ground without anyone knowing," Beatrice seethed and I rolled my eyes with her exaggerating statement. "Lucas was there to help me," I murmured pinching my chocolate doughnuts. "He's so protective of you, he's just a psycho most times," Beatrice said with her mouth full as she munched on her strawberry-filled doughnuts. "He mentioned someone when he kissed me in the hallway," I said biting my lips as I blinked at Beatrice who drew her chair closer to me making a screeching noise. "Can you please stop with that screeching noise each time you draw your chair?" I asked annoyingly, it has always been her habit and I'm not in the mood to listen to anything that wil
Every day almost seemed like a disaster to me, the week was running quickly and I've still not been able to pay my excursion fee. Well, today was the deadline let me put it that way. I walked into the class and sat at my usual spot beside the windows as I twirled my pen in between my fingers. Well, I didn't feel like going anywhere and I think it would be better to just be alone since we were on a free period. Most of the students were not in class including Lucas and Ben. Lucas has decided to give me some break these last few days as he didn't approach me or tease me as he does. He even missed some days and I wasn't bothered to ask, why should I even ask in the first place? He's my bully... I wondered if he even came to school today because I didn't see him during the first and second periods. I hadn'
"Are you sure, he's the one?" I asked Beatrice again as we went to our lunch table. "Yeah, who else could have paid the money?" Beatrice asked eating her macaroni. I glanced towards his table and saw Lucas manipulating his phone as Jenny sat close to him talking. He didn't give me his terrifying looks that always bore holes into my skin. "What if it's not him, and even if it's him I'm not accepting his money," I sneered stuffing the chips into my mouth. I stole glances at Lucas but his eyes were glued to his phone. "What a psycho!" I scoffed and at that moment, he raised his head like he heard what I said as our eyes made contact making me cough as I shifted my gaze away from him feeling nervous. "OMG! Did I say that loud?" I asked myself almost panicking. "Say what loud?" Beatrice asked turning her fo
CAMILLA POV. * * * I Slammed the door making a light thud, clutching the straps of my bag tightly to my back. I walked up through the stairs, today was just as bad as the former. He had paid my fees, why does he have to? I turned the knob of my door to the side as I walked into my room and dropped my bag on the bed. A sigh escaped my lips as I walked over to the mirror, I drew my top to the side and stared at the hickey Lucas caused on my skin. I brought my fingers up slowly tracing the mark which was turning red already. I closed my eyes as his face invaded my thought. I bit my lips, I'm falling for him, he's making me fall for him. But I can't, I hate him and he hates me too, the feeling is mutual. I needed to refresh my mind and w
"So what did you tell your mum?" Beatrice asked as I closed the passenger door of her car and slung the straps of my bag over my shoulders clutching them tightly to myself."Well, I told her you paid for my fees," I smiled warmly. as I kicked the small stone on the ground out of my way.Cars kept converging into the school's park as lots of students huddled around the school's ground."And she bought that lie?" Beatrice asked tauntingly as she chuckled slightly adjusting the band of her denim Jean trouser, while I rolled my eyes, she knew it was Lucas who paid the fee in the first place."What do you expect me to say? That a guy paid for my fee most especially from my worst enemy," I scoffed as we walked closer to the school building."I was just kidding!" Beatrice laughed throwing her arms over my shoulder as she drew me closer to her body."Mum will e
