TRENT のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 31 - チャプター 40

Trent is unconscious. He's restless. He's breathing hard. I don't know why the doctor said he's okay but he's not okay. And he's calling my name. That melts my heart. He's calling me. I'm the one he always calls in time of need. I grip his arm tight and I don't care if his cousin and his dad are standing beside me, staring at me. Trent suddenly opens his eyes and relief washes over me. Believe me, I've never been so relieved to see someone open their eyes. And that feeling scares the shit out of me. I shouldn't feel anything for Trent. Trent glimpses at me sweetly and you can tell his vision is a blur. He blinks twice then looks around the room. He freezes at the sight of his dad, then looks at me again. This time, angrily. Typical Trent is back. Trent snatches his hand from

It's been a whole week now and Trent is still giving me the silent treatment.  He's always in the trophy room these days. I. wonder what he does there. And if not, he works out in the gym in his house or plays video games when Jesse and Marcus come over. I've gotten used to this and it's fine. If this is how he wants us to live, cool. School is great these days. I got over Danna Fox's death. And guess what, Troy has a girlfriend, Jenna, who looks like a geek with her round glasses and baggy jeans. Her long ebony hair is always tied in a bun on top of her head. She's cute though. So at the cafeteria the following week, Troy doesn't join us at our table. He's gone to finish his assignment at Jenna's. Rumours on the street have it that Jenna's dad is filthy rich so you can

Just when I thought this whole Garry situation couldn't get worse, Nate proves that the creep is worse than we thought. From a few friends and of course, his mother who was a victim of Garry, Nate was able to find out who Garry is. His real name is Tom Taylor. He was first put in jail for child molestation when he was just a teenager. He raped a 3-year old girl and as if it doesn't get even sicker, he sodomized a 5-year old boy. He did all this at sixteen when he lived with his mother in a small town called Springville. But fortunately for him, he was diagnosed with some mental illness so he was able to escape as a juvenile. After high school, he moved to Manchester where he changed his identity to Todd Gamble. And when the police in Manchester started paying close attention to him and got closer to his footsteps, he decided to start afresh in Liverpool, where he became Garry Hook.

Trent is sleeping so peacefully when I wake up. I told him the whole Garry story last night as we lay in bed. The moment felt so surreal. Laying there. Pouring out all my problems to this extremely handsome player. And what amused me is that Trent understood why I had to hide the truth from my aunt. So we ended up sleeping very late. Thank God the class today is at midday so I have time to prepare myself for school. I shamble to the kitchen where I make two cups of coffee and a few pancakes. Trent suddenly enters the kitchen and hugs me lightly. "Are you okay?" He asks while taking a cup of coffee. I nod. "I'm better now that you're here..." Trent smiles. "

I'm shocked and caught off guard. Jenna is blaming me for their break-up. First of all, she's accusing the wrong person because the last person I would ever have a thing with is Troy. I'm saying that for the millionth time. Why doesn't anyone get it? Troy looks up at her since I'm a mum and doesn't say a word to her. "Stop blaming Becca!" Thank you. "Oh ya!" Jenna snaps. "All you ever do is talk about Becca. Becca this. Becca that. Becca! Becca! Becca! It's always her! I'm sure the only reason you ever dated me," her tone is lower and sad. "Is to make her jealous. You used me, Troy! You used me!" T
