I was pacing back and forth beside the exit of the school, while I chewed my bottom lip and waited for Kourtney to pass by. My hands were sweating and thoughts crept in my head. I didn't know how was I going to confront her or even where to start. If I didn't seem believable enough, our plan would blow up.My attention averted when I noticed Kourtney strutting towards the exit. Her voluminous, brown hair bounced in every step she took, and her glamorous face was stoic. The cream-colored, fur coat she always wore was hiding her fitted blouse and slender body. Once she shot me her hazel eyes, I gulped in nervousness.She moved in front of me, as her vanilla scent entered my nose."What are you doing here?" she asked curiously."I need to tell you something," I answered, trying to hide the nervousness in my tone.She beckoned me to go with her outside and I complied. Trailing behind her, we t

I didn't expect packing some clothes would be difficult, and I regretted doing this the other day when I had all the time yesterday. I shouldn't have procrastinated, maybe I'd be done packing by now. Pieces of clothing were scattered everywhere in this room, the continuous ring of my phone was distracting me, and I was now drenched with sweat.Hasting, I picked up the phone, only to see the caller ID flashed on the screen. It seemed like I didn't have a choice and just answered it."Devaraux, what do you want?" I asked, my tone sounded displeased."Why aren't you picking up your phone?" She said, irritated."Why?""I'm outside the apartment building, and I decided to fetch you."I gaped my mouth in awe and furrowed my brows in annoyance. I can't believe her."What am I, a seven-year-old?" I responded in annoyance."I'm making sure

I felt like I could've fainted, and the oxygen was non-existent at this moment. His grip was making me sweat, and tingles began to form in my stomach. I couldn't move, and I wanted to push him away but a part of me didn't.He got closer and closer. Every bit of his move caused my heart to skip a beat. He was hovering on top of me, as his bare chest pressed against my bust. What was he doing? The tension grew thicker and his head moved closer to me. The void between us was non-existent, and all I could feel now was the hotness of his breath and my heart rapidly beating.His hands moved further to grasp the hem of my shirt, but he quickly unheld it to graze his hand on my waist. He was touching me and I was letting it happen. A part of me wanted to stop, but the tension was devouring me. I shouldn't, the voice whispered in my head.He leaned closer, leaving no space as his pink lips were an inch aw

Warning: There's a mention of abortion in this chapter. ~*~ Everyone's ears were lent to Kourtney in anticipation. She remained quiet, as she tried to comprehend what she was about to say. She was looking down at her fidgeting hands and I could tell it was hard for her to be opening up a sensitive topic like this."She was the first person to know that I was pregnant because I always confide things with her," she started, her tone became forced and strained. "But our relationship turned around and her betrayal led to us being apart."When she began the whole explanation, I didn't have a clue how to react. I didn't even know if I was supposed to understand or empathize with her. All I could do was listen."She was the one who told our parents about it before I even had a chance to talk it out with them. That's why my parents f

Another day came, and something about it was different from what I was used to. The sun had shone way brighter, and the aggravation I had every morning was replaced with refreshing energy. This day felt as if it had turned upside down— the kind that had my heart lifted.Last night wasn't a dream, I assured myself that caused my lips to curl in a warm smile. The happenings that night appeared vividly in my head like it was a sort of romance movie. I hadn't experienced that kind of magic before, and that made me feel a hundred times better.I went downstairs to the kitchen to brew a coffee. I was greeted by Jillian who was about to go outside when she stopped in her track. She was wearing a white bikini top and denim short shorts. Turning her back to look at me, she said, "Do you wanna join us outside?"I stepped out of the staircase and shook my head in response. She nodded before he left the vicinity. Walking to the kitchen, I spotted no one, giving me relief. That meant I could remini
