"Thank you, sir," I said after paying his charges while he nodded and drove off.
I turned around and stared at my dearest home, the lemon and cream paintings were fading off and I glanced around and noticed the street was very quiet.
I walked anxiously to my home as I stepped on the three-step staircase while it made a creaking noise.
Placing my hand on the doorknob, I turned it to the left and the door made a click sound for me to know it was unlocked, I pushed it lightly as the door opened while I stepped in.
I became greeted with spiderwebs as I tried to clean my face with my hands while I closed the door behind.
I glanced at the cushions as I walked closer placing my hands on it, feeling its old textures.
The house was damn silent and it saddens me when I remember the old memories and the times spent in this once happy home.
I sighed
Lucas POV.***I got home late because I had to stay behind with Ben for the basketball practice, I was made the captain, our school was teaming against Daylight high school.I missed Camilla so much that I had to hurry my steps through the staircase and met her sleeping on the bed in my room with a book on her chest.I dropped my bag on the floor and walked closer to her when I saw a bottle of wine and a glass cup on the chest.'Is she drinking or what?' I thought removing the book from her chest and glanced through it.It was a diary, so I closed it and kept it on the draw, I didn't want to trespass into her privacy unless she allows me herself.I grabbed the bottle of wine and gazed at the content to make sure it wasn't alcoholic and who the fuck even gave her one when there was fruit juice.I didn't want her to
A week later,My wound had healed up though not fully, the stitches were removed but were still neatly dressed in cotton wool and plaster while my therapist said I've climbed some stones on the state of my depression, I was improving impressively so I can start going out.I was happy that I could get my feet back to school even though I tried to fight off the nervousness and anxiousness beginning to creep into me."Hey, you'll be fine," I heard Lucas say as he placed his hand on top of mine.We were both in his car as he pulled into the school's park, I stared at the students clustering around in their usual groups.I saw some set of girls in cheerleading uniform staring at Lucas's car as they giggled among themselves, though they can't see us in the car but we can."I hope so!" I breathed out entangling my hand in his as we both gazed into our eyes.&
The bell rang for the break as everyone hurried out of the class, all eyes were on me majorly especially when Lucas took his seating permanently by my side.I noticed Jenny wasn't in school today and Belle and Susan had been staring at me like I've grown two heads.I packed my books neatly in my bag as Lucas snatched them from me making me snap my head with a questioning brow, which implied, 'Is there a problem with you?'"Give that back!" I growled at him eyeing him profusely."Oh, little sparrow just gave out an order...'Give that back!' " He imitated me trying to make his voice sound tiny like a little girl."My voice doesn't sound that," I said rolling my eyes taking the book he left on the desk."But it does," Lucas said again trying to make his voice sound tiny as he slung the bag straps over his shoulder."Camilla!" A deep vo
LUCAS POV."Hey man!" I nudged Ben at his back as he was head over heels talking with Beatrice. I drew out the chair closer to Ben and sat contemplating what I was about to do."What's up with you?" Ben snickered at me while I just ignored him, such an annoying pest.'I almost wanted to say those three words I've been wanting her to hear, although I've said it to her before she was unconscious,' I thought placing my palm on my forehead as I ran my fingers through my hair while I positioned my elbow on the table.Maybe I should do it some other time where it will just be the two of us alone."Hey, big man! Thanks for taking care of her," Beatrice patted my back while I gazed at her with a nod."Where is she by the way and what took you guys long before coming here?" Beatrice asked while Ben stuffed the chips he was eating as a sly smirk formed on his lips.
2 hours later,I opened the door to my room and strode in, the practice was annoying because I would have beaten Damien to a pulp if not for Ben who interfered on time.I sighed pulling off the red sleeveless Jersey I was wearing and dropping it on the floor.I wore the school sportswear home because I was too lazy to change back in school when we were done with the practice.I glanced around the room and noticed Camilla wasn't here, maybe she's not back from her friend's house.What I wanted right now was a cold shower...I grabbed the band of the sports shorts and was ready to pull it down."You're back!" I heard a voice behind me and I turned around to see Camilla in a towel with water dripping from her body, her eyes widened as she saw my hands on the band of my shorts and a dirty thought ran through my mind as my eyes glistened on he
CAMILLA POV.***"We're late!" I squealed gripping Lucas's wrist firmly as we ran through the empty hallway while the bells chimed loudly for the start of the morning class.'Oh, God! How come we woke up so late?" I thought as I prayed that the biology teacher shouldn't be in class now.This is 8:15 a.m...Lucas and I woke up late due to the talking and gist we had almost throughout the night and Lucas stubbornly requested we bathe together this morning.We got carried away in the bathroom while things got heated between us as we both showered together despite us knowing we had a biology practical this morning.Lucas chuckled behind me as he walked faster while I was more running.We got closer to the lab and I stopped in my tracks, bending down with my hands placed firmly on my knees as I tried to gulp in the air w
“Ouch!” He hissed out gritting through his teeth loudly while gaining everyone’s attention.Oops… My bad!“Fuck! Camilla… that hurts like hell,” He groaned stepping back from me while I stared at his left foot he raised slightly.“Ms. Liam, is anything wrong?” Mrs. Justin asked as she craned her neck from where she was standing with a white hand glove in her hands already.“No!” I and Lucas said at the same time as we slowly stared at ourselves making eye contact.“If that’s the case, I don’t want any disturbances and carry on with your work,” She scolded with a loud scoff while I slowly tore my gaze away from Lucas’s scrutinizing stares.“Sorry,” I mumbled lowly for him to hear, while I picked the white gloves on the table and started wearing t
“Get into the car!” Lucas ordered as I approached his car after the school bell rang out for closing.“Aren’t you having practices?” I asked as I opened the back door of his car and threw my bag on the backseat.Today has been a stressful day, teachers were a bit strict and tedious on us since our exams were coming up soon.I closed the door and unlocked the front door as I slumped on the passenger’s seat.Lucas got into the car and pressed the button of his black Ferrari car. He gripped the steering of the car firmly and drove the car out of the school compound.The entire driving seemed awkward and silent while I pondered whether I should start up a conversation or just keep quiet.He tapped his finger continuously on the steering while I gazed through the windows.He took a turn which I noticed was n
