Chapter 21: Drunken MayhemKai’s P.O.V“Excuse me.”I let go of Erica and began moving away from the dancefloor, my mood considerably sour, however, she held onto me tightly, not letting go.“Come on…are you seriously going to walk away?” She snapped. “Just like that?”I looked back at the table to find Landon sitting alone and drinking, before Devon joined him at the table sans the women who had been hanging off of his arms. I didn’t know when he spotted the two of them, but thankfully, Cole was nowhere to be seen, which I could take as a good sign…However, another person who appeared to be MIA was Night…and that male partner of his…I took a swig of my drink, every possible kind of scenarios playing out in my mind at that very moment.It could mean they had just gone to the men’s room, right? It’s not like Night was going to hookup with every possible guy he saw in a bar…right?Fucking hell!I hated this! I hated that my mind was racing with all the worst kind of scenarios and what
Chapter 22: IdentityNight’s P.O.VI grit my teeth as the pain blinded me for a few moments, but I didn’t let go of him.My hands were on his back, clutching onto him just as tightly as he clutched onto my shirt, his hands shaking as he further tightened his white-knuckled grip.But then I felt his jaw loosen from my shoulder…slowing letting go of me as his grip on my shirt loosened as well.The rain pelted down on us mercilessly and the coolness of the water helped relieve some of the pain from my shoulder even though I tried to keep myself from making a noise.Kai’s head fell onto my shoulders in defeat, the fight leaving his body as his hands simply came to rest on my waist, his thumbs hooking onto the loops on my belt to keep them from falling to his side limply. His breath came in pants and he refused to look at me…but somehow I felt like his anger was dissipating.Maybe it was the slight tremble of his shoulders…or the way his jaw was still clenched…but I could tell that he wasn
Chapter 23: Hot and ColdKai’s P.O.V “Sleep with me.” I repeated, running a hand through my hair in frustration.“Please, for the love of god, do not tell me that you just thought sleeping with me once would get this out of your system and you’ll go back to being with as many women as you fucking want!” He snapped at me, finally losing his temper. “Hell, Kai! Get yourself together! Go to sleep before your drunken ass says something stupid again and I’m forced to punch you in that pretty face of yours!”“I’m not saying this because I’m drunk!” I hissed. “What if I really want this?”“Yeah? How about you tell me that tomorrow morning, when you’re sober and thinking clearly once again” He spoke through gritted teeth. “Oh wait…you wouldn’t even be here tomorrow morning!”My god, this was really getting on my nerves!What the fuck was even wrong with me? Why had I even followed Night here?“I…I don’t know, Night!” I leaned back against the window; feeling drained all of a sudden. “I serio
Chapter 24: FearsKai’s P.O.V“One month?” Cole raised his eyebrows at me as I told him about Friday night.It was Sunday morning and neither Cole nor I, had anywhere to be.Night on the other hand, had gone off to his parent’s, to spend the day with his folks. I hadn't asked much as he left in the morning, because he looked reluctant to go back home.I never asked him about his family, but from the looks of it, there was certainly some kind of trouble.“One month.” I repeated, nodding my head at Cole’s surprised expression.“I’m surprised he even agreed to such a stupid proposition.” Cole shook his head, stuffing a bunch of French fries into his mouth. “Especially after the shit you’re putting him through.”“Cole…” I narrowed my eyes at my best friend.“What?” He frowned. “I’m telling you the truth and that too, quite nicely. You won’t get that from someone else. They’d just punch you in the face and be done with it!”“Wow…thanks a lot man! Just the kind of confidence I needed.” I ro
Chapter 25: An Incomprehensible RealityNight’s P.O.VBreakfast on a Sunday morning was exactly how I thought it was going to be…My mother immersed with her PA as they went on to discuss their next charity event. My father on his phone with his secretary about what recent mayhem he thinks is going on with his company. And me at the opposite end of the table, wanting nothing more than to finish my breakfast and get the fuck out of here as soon as I could.I didn’t particularly show up at my house on a Sunday, but today, I had been summoned here for some reason. My parents had both been away on business trips for the last couple months and had finally returned home.And even though my mother had called to see me at home because she ‘missed’ me; nothing about this scenario told me that I had been missed in the slightest.So I stashed my bacons and eggs between the two buttered toasts I had on my plate, and ate it as a sandwich, so I could get breakfast over with as quickly as possible.
Chapter 26: Pairing UpKai’s P.O.V“People’s choice is so overrated.” I let out another sigh as I took in the array of clothes lined up in front of me. “Why do I have to do this all over again this year as well? Wasn’t two years enough?”“I’m guessing that the girls want to get you bare chested and in the pool once again.” Zach laughed at my sour expression. “Remember how those pictures got over 50k likes last year?”I narrowed my eyes at the Student Council President. “You’re having an awful lot of fun with this, aren’t you?”“Look, girls want some eye candy.” He shrugged shamelessly. “And my duty, as the Student Council President, is to provide them with exactly what they want.”“Zachary Billard!” I snapped at the fourth year med student. “You’re supposed to help students in distress! Not feed us to the sharks!”“I promise the pool is shark free!” He held up his hands in surrender, a wide grin plastered on his face. “If you start making even more fuss, I’ll have you wear g-strings.”
Chapter 27: JealousyKai’s P.O.V“Huh?” I blinked, several times, to try to understand the reason behind the sudden sharpness in his voice.“Don’t ‘huh’ me!” His eyes narrowed to slits as he gave me a thunderous expression. “You told me to not go around dating or having one-night stands, but here you are, frolicking around like a harlot!”“Excuse me?” A harlot? Was he kidding me! What fucking era was this again?Letting go of my collar, he brushed his fingers on my neck, making me shiver involuntarily, even though I tried to hide the reaction.And then he brought his fingers up to my face, making me narrow my eyes so I could look at what he was trying to show me.“Glitter?” I asked incredulously.“Unless you’re parading around with some woman in your arms…” he spoke through gritted teeth, “explain to me how glitter ended up on your neck!”“Huh?” I stood up straight, since bending down to Night’s level to talk to him was giving me back pain, and then I wiped at my neck with my own hand
Chapter 28: Tops and Bottoms Kai’s P.O.V “Do I have to pair up with her?” Night whined for the thousandth time as I finally got him to eat something before he plopped back down onto his bed. “Why can’t it be anyone else?” “I tried to negotiate with Zach, the student body president, but he doesn’t want to.” I shrugged, finishing up on my assignments as I sat on the table right opposite to Night’s bed. “At least he’s not having us do couple’s photoshoots in the pool.” “That doesn’t sound so bad…” Night frowned. “Is it?” “Considering that Ruby and I ended up having sex in the changing room last year?” I raised my eyebrows, my lips tilting up in a smirk when I saw Night’s expression sour. “Yup. I think it is.” “At least that’s not happening with me.” He grumbled under his breath, before he sat up with his pillow clutched in his arms. “What about you? Who are you paired with this year?” “Ah…I think her name is Saya? She’s a freshman from Commerce.” I shrugged. “Pretty cute if you ask
