Chapter 18: Facing Reality
Faith’s P.O.V
The next morning, I had expected to wake up to a sour mood and odd circumstances. I had even expected to find myself in front of my aunt, with her disapproving glances once she found out that I had been hanging out with a boy I hardly even knew. However…what I hadn't expected to wake up to was at Debby’s house, on her bed and looking like a mess fresh out of hell and with Debby staring down at me, looking like she was ready to kill someone.
“What…?” I looked up at her groggily, rubbing my eyes to get rid of the last vestiges of sleep. “Why am I here?”
“How about you tell me what exactly happened yesterday?” She asked sharply. “You left the house in perfectly fine condition, but now, here you are, bandaged and bruised and Brandon just acted like it wasn’t even his fault!”
“It wasn’t.&r

Chapter 19: BulliedFaith’s P.O.VThe moment Debby and I stepped into the school hallways…it instantly felt like all eyes were on me.I stopped short, a few feet away from my locker, my heart thrashing against my ribcage wildly as I realized just how everyone was looking at me with this strange gaze…like they knew something that I didn’t…like I was being judged for something that I didn’t realize I had done wrong.“Do you feel like everyone in the hallway is suddenly judging us for some reason?” Debby whispered to me in a hushed voice and I immediately nodded.I would have pointed out that I had a feeling that it wasn’t actually ‘us’ by more specifically ‘me’ that was being judged…but my voice was all but gone. I didn’t think I could talk with so many people staring right at me.“Well…well…well…look who finally arrived.”The almost comical way the twin voices sounded from behind me made both Debby and me turn around instantly, not just because I knew it was being directed at me…but be

Chapter 20: Disappointed Faith’s P.O.V “Come on, just a bit more.” Debby said quietly, her own voice shaky as she helped me limp all the way to the nurse’s office, while she supported me as best as she could. I didn’t talk. I don’t think I could at the moment. What happened at the hallway today had shaken me deep down to my core, but more than that…there was this deep sense of betrayal that just didn’t seem to go away. Brandon…he hadn't even bothered to help me. I don’t know why I was even surprised. I shouldn’t be! Debby, David…almost every single person that I had met since my first day of college had been saying the same thing over and over again. Brandon was a walking red flag. Every single person I had met had told me to stay as far away from him as possible. Hell, even I knew that was the best choice! Then why did I keep feeling this sense of betrayal? Why was I so disappointed in him for not standing up for me? I didn’t want to be involved in this mess in the first pla
The Bad Boy's Innocent Obsession Chapter 21: Wanting
Chapter 21: Wanting Faith’s P.O.V “Easy,” Brandon helped me onto the couches, gently helping me settle down before he placed our bags at the foot of the coffee table in front of us. As he left me alone for an instant to go into the kitchen, I took the opportunity to look around the room with my heart hammering hard inside my chest. This was the first time in my life that I had come into a boy’s house…that too one who lived alone in a condo. Although calling this place a condo would be an understatement. Unlike the tiny apartments that I had seen on TV or heard my friends mentioning over the years, this place was massive. The kitchen was right opposite to the entrance and rather full size, like the one at my aunt’s house. The sitting area too was large with two couches and a larger sofa opposite a huge TV screen that was plugged onto several of those controller things that boys used to play games. However, what surprised me were the tiny indoor plants on various table tops here a

Chapter 22: Suspicions Brandon’s P.O.V “So…you took Faith to your Condo yesterday.” “And?” I narrowed my eyes at both Sagar and Cole who were guarding the door to the locker room like two bad boy wannabe’s who wanted the inside scoop on what went down between me and Faith so they could fill up the town’s gossip column with their ridiculous fantasies. “You’ve never taken anyone to your condo before.” Saga pointed out matter-of-factly. “Not even Julia.” “He didn’t even take Julia to any of his shoots either.” Cole inserted with an evil smirk. “Not that we blame you…we all know how crazy she gets when she’s jealous.” “Julia.” I rolled my eyes at them both in frustration before pushing past them to get to my locker. “Seriously, you two raccoons need to stop digging through yesterday’s trash bags.” “Wow, that was harsh.” Sagar winced, placing a hand over his heart and pouting at me like a four year old. “I’d rather be harsh than a cheater.” I told him clearly. “Julia abandoned me wh

Chapter 23: The Truth about Him Faith’s P.O.V “Here you go,” David pointed out to the isle that had all the books related to disaster management. “Try the books written by Heather Shaw and Kane Westwick, so far they are the most helpful ones you’ll find on the subject.” “Thank you so much, David,” I told him gratefully. “I’d be totally lost if you didn’t help me out here. This place is massive!” The next day, I once again found myself in the library after morning class and since I had time yet to get to my next class and I wasn’t hungry yet, I had decided to catch up on my assignments. And as I had expected, David was already here, in his usual spot, with his head buried in a ton of books. If it weren’t for his help, there was no way I was going to find my way around this maze of a library that I never seem to get used to. “I thought you’d be used to the library by now, considering how I always find you here in between classes.” David offered a small smile before shaking his head.

Chapter 24: Acting ObviousFaith’s P.O.V“He slept with his father’s secretary.” The words kept reverberating through my mind all night long, making it difficult for me to fall asleep. And even when I did, I would end up waking up not long after, causing me to remember those words once again.By now, I wasn’t all that surprised that Brandon was the kind of person that liked to sleep around. He was a player, the kind of person that parent’s warned their daughters about. However, why did the way David put those words…make it seem like there was way more to the meaning of it than what he was letting on?“He slept with his father’s secretary.”I’m assuming Brandon slept with a lot of people…but this? This seemed different.“What do you mean exactly?” I had asked David right at that moment. “Doesn’t Brandon sleep around a lot already?”Because that’s how I first met him…in the women’s washroom…up against Julia in the washroom counter…“Yes, he sleeps around and if this was so simple…then

Chapter 25: Unintentionally Hurting HimFaith’s P.O.VThe feeling that I might have done something terribly wrong…that I might have crossed some kind of invisible line in the sand that I wasn’t supposed to cross…it hit me harder now as the seconds ticked by and Brandon didn’t utter a single word.All he did was stare at me in utter silence, like he didn’t know what else to do or say…and I didn’t like it one bit.There was this look in his eyes, like even though he might be physically here…but mentally, he wasn’t here at all.“B-Brandon?” I touched his hand lightly and he instantly jerked my hand away, like I had somehow burned him.“Who told you?” His voice was harsh, unyielding.And that confession…even though he didn’t directly tell me the whole truth…that hurt even more than the way he withdrew his hand from mine.I hadn't expected it. I didn’t think Brandon had it in him to hurt someone like that…because what David had told me…it hadn't been just about him sleeping with his father

But Scott wasn’t done. Taking advantage of the fact that he was down, Scott lifted up his leg and kicked him hard in the chest.I covered my mouth with my hands to stop myself from screaming as I saw Brandon go down hard, as even more blood gushed out of his mouth. He had fallen face down onto the floor and when I saw Scott getting ready for yet another blow…I knew I had to do something.Turning back, I ran to the fire alarm without a second thought and pressed down on the button.Red lights started blaring from the hallw
