MasukWe finally went home at 7:13pm, Christy had made sure we went to every available shop in hunt for clothes, at the end I had settled for a red gown with V neckline, it had tiny diamonds on the edge which sparkles in the light. I spent a lot for that gown and believe me, I wasn’t entirely happy but Christy had said that since I was going with Adrian, I need to look my best. Honestly, I still don’t understand why I have to spend so much for just homecoming dance but she had her way of making it sound marvelous.She had suggested we got matching shoes, she had chosen a black gown, similar to mine but not really identical. I had refused on that idea, I had really nice red shoes that would go with the dress, I don’t want to spend more. I have already spent enough on Max’s party. When she parked in front of my house, I could hear the music from outside and prayed silently that the neighbors shouldn’t report us, I really don’t want the news to get to my parents.We got down from the car and c
Today is Max’s birthday, our parents had called us on video call to wish him a happy birthday, Max wasn’t happy with them, I wasn’t too. I had been hoping there were planning to surprise him, but it turns out they weren’t and they are really in Egypt, so much for having archeologists as parents, yeah right.Since my talk with Christy, I have tried giving Adrian a chance, although I didn’t tell him that, I forced myself to stop reading meaning in everything he did, to stop believing that every line he said to me was a pick up line for him and you will be surprise to know that my subconscious is so proud of me that she had stopped butting in my thoughts and accusing me of lying, at least, most a times.It turned out that removing every negative thoughts about Adrian really made me see him in a new light, as well as my unnamed feelings for him. I know it’s been three days I had agreed within myself to give him a chance but it seemed that the feeling has already been buckled up inside me.
I glanced at Adrian immediately I heard what Christy said, he only smiled and shrugged his shoulders. I looked back at Christy who was still eyeballing me and Adrian like she wants to do it at the same time. I sighed and walked away from Adrian to her, “listen Chris, it’s not what you think.”“What the hell do you mean by 'it’s not what I think'? Take a good look at this situation, Adrian Sanders is in your bathroom, Molly, he really is here. So tell me, what exactly can he be doing in your room?” She asked.I looked back at Adrian and he just ran his hand through his curls, “you know what? Why you ladies are figuring it out, I will just go home and prepare for school, you know? I have missed a lot of classes and I have a lot of catching up to do, so um…see you pretty ladies at school,” he winked on his way passing us and I grabbed his collar and dragged him back.“You are not going anywhere mister, you put me into this mess, you will bring me out. Right now, you are going to explain
“Well hurry up, we haven’t got all day,” Christy replied.Adrian was holding in his laughter, trying not to laugh out loud while I was trying not to cry, “please,” I whispered to him.“What should I do?” He whispered back.I walked up to him, “you know there is no way I can take a shower with you in here.”“I don’t see anything wrong with it, besides, it would have been a good way to start the day, only one problem.”“What is it?”“I always, always barf at the sight of blood.”I frowned, not understanding what he meant until I remembered I was in my period. I slapped his chest and he winced, “you suck, Adrian Sanders,” I said a little too loud and he helped me to cover my mouth with his hand.“Who are you talking to?” Christy asked.“Nobody,” I yelled to her, “Christy, I’m pooping and I hate talking while pooping.”“Well hurry up, you don’t have to sleep there. And talk about infection.”“I know, I’m almost done,” I said, Adrian was stifling his laughter and it looked like he would bu
“Um…um, it's not what you think,” I tried to defend myself, but how can that be possible? I was caught in the act.Adrian sat up on the bed and he was smiling as he looked at me. “Is that so? What should I think then?”“Nothing, don’t think of anything,” I rushed to say but his smile only broadened. Oh, what have I done to myself?“Do you realize what just happened? I woke up to you kissing me…”“No I wasn’t,” I cut him short.He smiled and the next thing I knew, he pounced on me like a tiger would on its prey. I fell on the bed and only today was I happy that my bed was big enough for three. He crouched on top of me and I could feel my heartbeat loud in my ears. Adrian smirked and leaned closer to my face. “You know you could have just woken me up. Although I love the idea of you waking me up with a kiss, I would be able to attend school on time if I have you around every morning.”I frowned at his words, forgetting my situation for a moment. “Wait, are you trying to say that you com
I stretched myself on the bed, hugging my pillow which was hard and soft at the same time. The sea scent that assailed my nostrils made me open my eyes. I was surprised to see the body of someone on my bed, a body that wasn’t mine. I got up and was shocked to see Adrian in my room, why is he in my room? Then I remembered, I was the one who asked him to stay and he did, he didn’t leave in the middle of the night after I must have fallen asleep. He stayed just to fulfill my wish, it was one of the best things someone has ever done for me.I lay back on the bed but not on him this time but on my pillow. I have seen him asleep once, that was in the bus, the night we were returning from the field trip and I couldn’t stand his presence then. But things have changed now. I know I don’t feel repulsive anytime I see him now but rather, I want to get closer to him more.This is all still strange to me, I mean, how could I hate a guy one time and love him the next? Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait,
“What are you talking about?” I decided to act dump, I might not understand what is happening to me, but what I do know is that I am not going to fall into his games, no, I will not, I shall not.“Oh pigeon, do you just want me to say it? You know what? Why don’t I just show you instead?” He starte
I saw Max standing in front of my door in his pajamas, “hey,” I said to him.“Hey,” he replied.“What’s the problem?”He looked at me, hesitating to say his problem and when he opened his mouth to talk, he just shook his head, “just forget about it,” he turned to walk back to his room.I grabbed hi
I glared at him and he laughed, “your words, remember?” He reminded me.“Point of correction, it wasn’t my words.”“But you suggested it and she just said it,” he winked and walked to my bed. Falling on it, he picked up the novel I had no idea was still there, yeah right. “Hmm, romance, never knew
“What the hell?” I asked.“I have missed you,” he chuckled, taking a step towards me, “what’s hard to understand there,” he was now in front of me and he ran his fingertips on my cheek, “I missed you pigeon,” he repeated in a whisper.A shiver ran through my body and I took a step back, “okay, you
