ZARA; fight

“Oh shit,” Jace muttered under his breath, but it was already too late.

Amber didn’t even hesitate, she marched straight up to us and landed a heavy slap on his cheek.

I let out a loud gasp.

“Amber!” Jace snapped, grabbing his face.

People were staring now. Some even paused their videos. Great. Just great. Another public embarrassment to add to my week.

“You think I’m stupid?” Amber yelled, her voice cracking from anger. “You think I don’t know you’ve been avoiding my calls because you’re busy with her? You have been waiting for this moment, you have. That's why you brought up the quarrel!” words escaped me. What the heck was i even supposed to say.

“Amber, stop,” Jace said, trying to keep his voice low. “You’re making a scene.”

“Oh, I’m making a scene?” she shot back. “You’re the one running around a park with your little best friend while ignoring your girlfriend! You are a fool.”

I swallowed hard, I hated this.

I hated the way people were looking at us.

  • Tempted by the wrong bad boy    chapter 50

    ZARA’ ; At the cafeteria The next place I found myself was Riley’s apartment. I didn’t even remember the walk. One second I was running out the door, the next I was in her arms, crying like my chest had cracked open.“This is fucked, Riley. So fucked,” I choked out, sobbing into her shoulder.“I’m sorry, Zara. I’m so sorry,” she whispered, rubbing slow circles on my back.“You know what’s worse?” My voice trembled, bitter, and breaking. “I let him touch me. I gave in. I keep giving in when I’m supposed to be pushing him away. I’m such an idiot.”“Girl, it’s not you,” Riley said firmly. “You’re just a girl with feelings. It’s his fault for being like that.”“I think I’m in love with him, Riley.” My words came out soft and cracked. “It’s just… I don’t know… I—”Riley pressed her index finger gently against my lips.“Girl, it’s fine. You’re allowed to feel what you feel. And you know what? I’m not letting you go back to that apartment tonight. I don’t want you to see those jerks.”“Than

    ZARA: what happened to you? I stood frozen, words failing me, my heart thudding so hard it felt like it might punch through my chest. Noah was right in front of me real, solid, breathing but my mind refused to believe it. Was this even happening?Before I could process a single thought, his lips crashed onto mine.My eyes widened in shock, but the rest of me… melted. Instead of pushing him away like I knew I was supposed to, my body betrayed me. His mouth moved against mine with a kind of hunger I hadn’t felt in months, desperate, angry, relieved, everything at once. Our breaths tangled, shallow and shaky, feeding off each other.God, I had missed him. Missed him more than I ever wanted to admit. And this kiss was dragging every buried feeling straight to the surface, unraveling me piece by piece.But I shouldn't…. I need to stop. “Noah…” I breathed out, barely a whisper, but he only leaned in again, closing the space like he couldn’t stand even a second apart.Noah’s were on my che

    ZARA, He is back. Lena didn’t waste a second, her hand flew up and cracked across my face.The slap stung hot and sharp.Out of pure reflex, I flung the drink in my hand right at her. It splashed all over her hair and dress."You bitch!" Lena shrieked and grabbed a fistful of my hair, yanking hard.I grabbed hers right back.Within seconds, we were tangled together, dragging each other, fighting like wild animals.People around us started laughing, gasping, pulling out their phones, recording like it was their entertainment for the night.Of course they were.This school loved drama as long as it wasn’t theirs.But this time… I wasn’t the same Zara.I wasn’t the girl who cried in bathrooms, who let everyone walk over her, who swallowed insults and pretended it didn’t hurt.I promised myself I was coming back stronger this semester.And I meant it.I had endured enough because of Lena.I spent last semester miserable because of what happened, because of people like her.Not again, not

    ZARA- Welcome party. Jace continued an entire conversation with me in the car like nothing had happened, and honestly, I didn’t want to start reading meaning into anything. We were just best friends. At least… that’s what he thought of me.When we finally got to the apartment with our luggage, my eyes flickered toward Noah’s room. I had never stepped a foot inside there because he barely stayed in it. Sometimes, I genuinely wondered what went on in Noah’s head… where he went…Jace caught me staring at his door.“We’ll talk to the housing admin to see if we can move to any free apartment. If not, we’ll check apartments not signed to the campus,” he said.“You don’t need to stress yourself, Jace,” I muttered, dragging my box toward my room.“Zara, we are leaving this apartment if it helps you,” he insisted. “Noah is not coming back. And even if he does, you’re not getting entangled with him again. I’ll make sure of that.”I rolled my eyes. “Yes, Daddy,” I hissed sarcastically.But Jac

    ZARA; another phase. TWO MONTHS LATERTwo months passed before I knew what was happening, and there was still no sign of Noah. Nothing. No texts. No calls. No apology. Not even a stupid emoji.I forced myself to forget about him.Forced myself to delete his name from my phone. The wing necklace he gave me?I took it off weeks ago.At first, I kept it in my drawer.Then I hid it at the bottom of my bag.Then one day, I couldn’t stand looking at it anymore, so I shoved it into a box and pushed it under my bed like it was toxic.Even after two months, even after everything I went through, even after forcing myself to heal…There was still this tiny, embarrassing part of me waiting for him to show up, checking my phone to see if I could find answers to at least the reason why he is doing this.But nothing, not once.Instead, the silence grew louder.After that week the incident happened, the upper week rolled into exam weeks, so people didn’t pester me much, everyone was too busy studyi

    ZARA; she did it. I sat at the back staircase behind the faculty block, tucked into the corner where barely anyone passed. My knees were pulled to my chest, and I buried my face in them as I cried. The kind of crying that makes your chest hurt. The kind you can't stop even when you try. “I’m so sorry, Zee. I don’t know how this happened.”Riley’s voice trembled as she sat beside me. “When you left, the course representative said he wanted a word with me and I didn’t think someone was going to swap your files. I’m so sorry.” She made a heart felt apology. More tears spilled down my face. Hot, heavy, humiliating. Was I really about to start my first year retaking courses? “It’s not your fault, Riley…” I managed, wiping my face with the back of my hand while she kept rubbing my back gently. “Who in the hell could have done this?” she muttered. “That’s so unfair. People are so cruel…” She muttered . Then it hit me as I thought of someone. “Lena…” I mumbled before I eve
