"I don't know why I'm telling you this, but I didn't always live with Luka and Leonardo. We have different mums you see." she gave a wide smile that didn't even come close to hiding the pain in her eyes and I adjusted in my seat. I didn't know that. I've heard someone refer to Paula as Luka's cousin but I've always just known they were siblings. "But he treats me well. He is like the best big brother in the whole world even though he is older than me by barely a year. Most of the time he got beaten was also because of me. Luka is like that you know, always wanting to take care of those he loved." I nodded and smiled in agreement. "When Luka was 7 and I just moved in, he caught his mom cheating on our dad and she had begged him not tell on her. It messed with him, but he kept it in, because our dad was obsessed with Luka's mom. He didn't even cheat with my mom voluntarily, according to the story, he was drunk that night on a buisness trip away from home and my mom took advantage of

My body feels boneless as I gaze unto his brown, shiny eyes. We're both lying on our back, bodies wet with sweat and slowly coming back to normal. Luka leans forward to stroke my cheek gently with his fingers and placed a chaste kiss on my lips. "I love you," he murmurs. I try to keep my eyes open but I suddenly feel so sleepy so I mumbled, "I love you too."He pulled me closer so that my head was laying in his chest and I could hear the slight worked up beat of his heart. "I'm sorry I wasn't able to take it slow for your first time. I.. I really tried to control myself but when I was inside you, it just felt so good and I kind of lost it. " He whispers and I smile gently."It was perfect." I know that I don't have anything to compare it with, but it felt so good and amazing for me. Now I'm his and he he is mine, it's all ive ever wanted coming to life. I let out a content smile as my eyes began to droop and he pulled me in closer. I woke up alone, sprawled out on his big bed and

He left. After I told him I didn't want people in school to know about us in a relationship, he just got out of the car and left. It was what I wanted but truth be told I didn't expect him to accept easily. I got out immediately after him and he locked the car. I walked behind him, but he was taken giant steps towards the class making sure there was much distance between us which I didn't like at all.On the hallway everyone was looking at me strangely. Some with pity, others in curiosity, and the last bunch with disdain. Our class was no any different. The moment I entered the rowdy class quieted down and everyone was whispering about me. It reminded me of the first day Luka got here. I wiped my seat and desk before I sat down and turned to give Luka a quick stare but he was looking outside the window ignoring all of us. Immediately the teacher came in, she referenced my return and I tried to smile and politely answer as much as I could about my absence. She didn't look satisfied

I rang the doorbell and pulled my jacket closer to stop the shivers I got as a result of the cold of the evening air. After school I walked home, avoiding the ride back with Luka to get a little bit of time to clear my head. Immediately I got home, I dropped my school bag, picked an apple and headed to Jamie's apartment. It's been two days of me being fully friendless. You'll think a girl gets kidnapped and her friends will stay in her life. Tammy was also now not talking to me, I tried to reach out to her during lunch break today and she had carried her plate and left. She wasn't even hanging out with new people; she just didn't want to talk to me. All day in school it was just me, trying not to be seen with Luka while taking our kids break as he liked to call it in the art room. He didn't look like he was happy with my decision to keep my relationship with him under wraps either, it just seemed like he accepted it for my sake. That's why I'm here now. I was going to fix all my f

"Isabella, open the door right this minute!" My mom yelled while we scrambled around. Luka struggled to put on his clothes while I struggled to find something else to wear. He gathered his jacket and boots and moved towards the toilet. "What are you doing?" I whispered in shock, pulling him back, "you need to go, like in that direction," I pointed towards the window and he nodded, struggling to put on his shoes as he trailed in that direction. I rushed after him and watched him climb down, as lithe as a jumping monkey. The moment he jumped out, I struggled to smooth the bed as much as I could. I just hoped the air didn't smell of sex and all of that. "Isabella!" The octave of her voice was deeper and I knew that she was close to her elastic limit at this point. "I'm coming mum," I answered groggily and opened the door. I rubbed my eyes with my knuckle and used the best sleeping voice I had, "what is it mum?" She pushed past me to enter the room and looked around. "So you want to
