-Blake's POV-"Then why can't I be your girlfriend?"I stopped. It seemed as if everything froze with me. I looked down slowly at Dominic. Her lips captivating me instantly, but I resisted. She's drunk. She's drunk. I had to remember she was drunk."You're drunk Dominic," I stated, trying to divert my attention from her to the exit. I didn't know why I was panicking or why my heart was racing like it was but at that moment, all I could hear was its unsteady beat and how it wouldn't slow down."I know," she deadpanned, "but you were also drunk when you told me you loved me so I think this makes it equal," I gulped, we hadn't brought that up again ever since she had come back to America so this caught me off guard. "Unless that was a lie
It had been only a few days since the new guys had joined the school and they were getting popular, fast. Apart from their popularity, another thing that was rising was their rivalry with Dominic. Dominic's reputation didn't falter however, she stood her ground and spent her days as normally as she could. Well,hernormal anyway.School began and just like any other day, Dominic walked towards her locker with a monotone face, clearly showing her disinterest to the people around her.She opened her locker and took out the necessary books. She had maths first, a subject she found interesting but wasn't thrilled about. But it didn't matter, she thought. She just closed her locker and turned around ho
-Dominic's POV-Confusion was the first thing I had felt when I woke up that morning.The walls were unfamiliar, the bed was unfamiliar, everything was unfamiliar. This wasn't my house, I confirmed before looking down at myself, almost afraid that I had done something I regretted. However, to my relief, I still had last night's clothes on and nothing looked or felt out of place at all.With further inspection of the room I was in, I realised it was a guy’s room and that the guy was laying in the space next to me in bed. So, I slowly checked who it was only to have my breath stuck in my chest. It was Blake. This was Blake's room and I was in Blake's bed.I calmed my racing heart befo
-Arthur's POV-How many fucking pills were in here?No matter how many I took out of the drawer, more lay inside, taunting me. I glared at the pill containers in my hands and grit my teeth.It was all my fault.Suddenly someone grabbed my shoulder which made me ease my muscles and turn to face him. It was Nick. I was so consumed by these that I hadn't heard him come in. "Hey, we just came back from school. Dominic headed straight to the bar, but the rest of the lads are here." He then looked down at my hands and the drawer before looking at me with concern. "You alright?" he asked which made me put the containers down and giving him a nod.He seemed to catch onto my sadne
The sound of a heavy door slamming shut and footsteps echoing into a room filled the empty set. There were no windows, no desks, one way in and one way out. The room was dimly lit with just enough light for the two males to see that they weren't alone."What do you want?" The man who just entered asked, eager to leave as if someone was chasing him."You know what we want," the first man hissed, stepping forward threateningly. "And you're going to help us get it. You're one of us remember?"The second man grits his teeth in frustration and didn't reply for a moment. Instead, he stared back at him with an intense glare. "It's not going to work. You're not going to be able to kill them-""Shut the fuck up! You do as I fucking tell you!" The yelling whisp
-Arthur's POV-"Bye Arthur! See you after school!" I kissed her forehead and grinned down at her."See you later sis, stay safe alright?" She gave me a curt nod and ran towards her school's building. I loved my sister, so much so that I'd probably die in order to keep her safe. Dominic meant so much to me, her happiness meant so much to me.That was on my mind whilst I was riding my motorcycle back home until I heard a gunshot. I hadn't had enough time to turn and look at where it came from when I was hit. I wasn't prepared for it at all. It was quick, but I was in so much pain. I had been shot. I fell off of my bike, rolling against the floor before stopping and groaning in pain.I
-Dominic's POV-Discomfort.No matter what I did or who I was with I was uncomfortable.Arthur's words rang constantly in the back of my head and it was driving me insane. 'You're not really my sister so fuck off,'. Sure, what he said upset me but it was whatever drove him to say those words which annoyed me too.I thought I could trust Arthur but now I wasn't so sure. Not only did he lie to me, but he also wouldn't tell me the truth after I caught his lie. He was hiding something from me and -as much as I didn't want to believe it- I had a feeling I knew what he was keeping hidden.Clearly, I hadn't killed the whole gang, I thought with minor anger but took a breat
-Blake's POV-I smiled down at my screen as I read Dominic's text message explaining that the was dragged out of the house by Xavier to go and train which was why the door was suddenly slammed closed all of a sudden. I trusted Xavier with Dominic, so I saw no problem with him taking her but now the only issue was finding out what to do now that she wasn't here.I wasn't bored for long though as there was a knock at the door and this time the lads and I go up to open it with caution. When we did, we saw that Arthur stood outside with a straight face. Nick was pretty welcoming and invited him in happily but there was something about him I wasn't comfortable with. After Dominic and I's last encounter with him, hi
-Dominic's POV-"He's done what?" Xavier asked nerve struck."He's convinced them all that he's doing this for my benefit. They're trying to get me to go to some people to get 'wiped clean' or some bullshit like that." I responded dryly. Unlike, Xavier I wasn't really angry, I was just tired of it now."I know I said that we shouldn't trust them, but I didn't know that they couldn't be trusted! Fuck this!" He exclaimed, flailing his arms in the air before holding the bridge of his nose to calm down. "Fine. It doesn't matter. We were alone for four years, we can carry on working alone. Remember, act normal, don't let them get anything from you. I just-" He clenched his fists, "I just can't believe they fell for his lie!""They fell for it?"I turned my
