Chloe We sat in silence for a while, and I leaned my head against his shoulder, feeling a wave of sleep wash over me. However, I didn't want to fall asleep there because it might be difficult for him to carry me inside. As if reading my thoughts, he leaned back and rubbed my back."Go ahead," his deep, nonchalant voice said, and I nodded, too tired to fight it at the moment.I didn't immediately drift off to sleep, and I was awake when he shifted me into a more comfortable position. This time, sleep claimed me instantly. When I woke up, I found myself in bed. As I sat up, the sheets fell into my lap, and I glanced around, realizing that I was alone. However, the empty space beside me indicated that I hadn't slept alone. I got up, made my way to the bathroom outside, took a shower, brushed my teeth, and then returned downstairs. Still, there was no one in sight, which puzzled me. I settled behind the counter and began eating a bowl of cereal. Just then, the back door swung open, and
ChloeHayden stood behind me, his breath carrying a faint hint of mint as it gently brushed against my neck. Normally, I despised people breathing down my neck, but this time, I didn't feel uncomfortable."I knew I saw them come here," a voice approached, drawing closer to the room we were in. Absent-mindedly, I took a step back and accidentally bumped into Hayden. Swiftly, he wrapped his arms around me, preventing me from falling. The door swung open, and my nervousness compelled me to reach down and squeeze his hand.A mischievous idea struck him. Hayden buried his face in my neck from behind, his fluffy hair tickling my skin, and I struggled to stifle a giggle.Intentionally, he nuzzled his face, fully aware of the effect it had on me. Then, his lips touched my neck, soft and cold, causing a wave of sensation to surge through me. I nearly fainted as he sucked gently on the sensitive spot. His arms tightened, ensuring I couldn't escape, and I forgot about the presence of others hu
ChloeI decided not to question him further, knowing it wouldn't make any sense. Instead, I returned to my movie while he remained silent, lost in his star-gazing. As I started to drift off to sleep, I was abruptly awakened by the sound of vomit hitting the floor. Turning my attention to him, I found him with his eyes shut, breathing heavily. I let out a sigh and got up, walking around the area."Come on," I said calmly, and he looked up at me, staring for a moment before sighing.I offered him my assistance, but soon realized he didn't actually need it. Nevertheless, he leaned on me, and it made me chuckle. I grabbed a towel and some clothes from his bag, handing them to him before leading him to the bathroom. Once I was certain he wouldn't accidentally drown somehow, I left the room and went downstairs to fetch some cleaning supplies. I proceeded to clean up the mess he had made by the pool. Returning upstairs with my laptop, I laid on the bed and continued watching my movie. A few
Chloe I leaned against his car, waiting for him to come down. When he finally did, he had an angry look on his face."Why are you always angry?" I rolled my eyes, and he opened the passenger door for me."Get in," he said blankly, obviously not in the mood to talk right now.Sighing, I slowly got into the car and unlocked my phone, scrolling through it. He came around to his side and got in, but he didn't start the car immediately. His gaze fell on me, and I looked up at him, wondering what he was looking at. But he shook his head as if dismissing his thoughts, then started the car and sped out of the parking lot. The ride there wasn't long. Just a few corners, and we arrived. The others were already standing outside, waiting to board the yacht. It was a big one, surprisingly, as I thought they might have settled for a smaller one. But regardless, I was excited. He got out, coming around and opening my door for me. But when I stood up, I found myself cornered between him and the ca
ChloeI struggled to form coherent words as it felt like my lips were sealed shut, making it impossible to speak. I hesitated to share my thoughts with Hayden because he was known for his confrontational nature, and I didn't want to create any unnecessary drama. So I chose to remain silent, which only led him to sigh in frustration."Hale, I can't help you if you refuse to communicate," he said in a flat tone, causing me to shake my head and bury my face in his chest."I...," my voice trailed off, and I took a deep breath before continuing, "Can I talk to you about it later?" I asked, and he looked down at me with a groan."Fine," he replied monotonously before standing up, still holding onto me. He walked to the front of the boat, disregarding my struggles to be let go. The boat had come to a stop, and I could hear splashing sounds from outside.Before I knew it, I was unexpectedly thrown over the railing, plunging into the water with a loud splash. I stayed submerged for a moment, a
Chloe I woke up, realizing that I was now in Hayden's car. We were parked outside a store, so I assumed he had gone inside for something. Yawning, I stretched my body and settled against the seat, which was covered with a towel.I had fallen asleep again, and when I woke up, Hayden was carrying me towards the door. I patted his chest, letting him know I was awake and that he could put me down. He gently placed me on my feet, his hands still on my hips as my legs wobbled. Nodding, I opened the car door, and we went inside. I immediately headed upstairs, with Hayden following me. I rummaged through my bag, searching for a sweater or a hoodie, but couldn't find any.He looked at me before reaching into his bag and tossing something over to me. I looked at it and found a red, oversized hoodie, which made me ecstatic. It was exactly what I needed at that moment.With an appreciative smile, I grabbed some leggings and went to the bathroom to freshen up. After showering, I returned to the
Chloe I sat in detention, unsurprisingly finding myself surrounded by familiar faces. "Chloe! Come here!" Kai's loud voice drew the teacher's glare, but Hayden continued to ignore me. Despite that, I allowed my feet to carry me slowly towards Kai, earning a smile from Leah."How's your day going?" she asked, and I glanced at her."Could be better," I replied, alluding to my current detention. She chuckled in response."Well, at least you get to spend time with us," she said, her smile warm. I returned the smile."We're all going to a party tonight. Want to come?" Kai offered, but I shook my head."I'm really tired," I said, stifling a yawn as I spoke."That's fine. I'll bring you back a beer," he replied, and I chuckled softly."Thanks, Kai.""We heard Delton talking about you today. Are you guys friends?" Lilly inquired, and I shrugged."I just gave him some money to help with... something," I said, unwilling to reveal his secret."Help with what?" Zeek asked with a blank expression
Chloe It was now the second period, and I shared this class with Kai. We were discussing Hayden, who had to leave earlier because his ankle monitor started flashing red."So wait, he wasn't supposed to be here?" I asked Kai, furrowing my eyebrows. He nodded in response."He's not supposed to leave home, but he managed to mess up his ankle monitor," Kai chuckled, and I joined in."Well, I guess his freedom didn't last long," I remarked, watching as the teacher walked into our classroom.I made sure Hayden went home before the police showed up here. With a blank look, he left the building, but I wasn't entirely convinced he actually went home. Feeling exhausted, both Kai and I rested our heads on the desk and dozed off. Lunchtime arrived quickly, and my stomach growled, but I decided to delay eating. I had been losing weight slowly but surely, and I wasn't sure how to feel about it. It was great in one way, but it also highlighted my vulnerability. I allowed others' words to get to me,
