"I made the varsity team!" Tyler yelled excitedly and I hugged him. "I'm so proud of you," I told him and he pinched my cheeks. "I made the team!" Storm said before pulling me into a hug and I smiled at him. "I'm so happy for you guys," I told them before we walked over to Griff's car. Griff took his helmet off before throwing Paige over his shoulder and she screamed before giggling wildly as he spun her around in the air. "You guys need to shower," I told Tyler and Storm and they laughed before nodding. "We're going to Griff's house, we'll shower there," Tyler explained and I sighed tiredly. "Are you still coming?" Storm asked me and I nodded. Cole came walking out of the locker room, I could tell that he had taken a quick shower when the smell of his shower gel met my nose."Let's go." Cole blankly told me and I frowned lightly. "Liv." He said and I jogged over to him. I'd rather ride with Cole than sit in a car with a bunch of smelly jocks, no offense. Cole opened my door for

"Rook, what's wrong?" I asked in concern. "Nothing." He said softly."What do you mean it's nothing? So you drove all the way here and climbed through my window for nothing?" I asked him and he silently looked at me before nodding. "Can we just pretend that it's nothing? You've got a way of making me feel better when I'm down." He said and I nodded before hugging him. I sat down on my bed and I watched him sitting down on the floor. He rested his back against the side of my bed and I frowned lightly. "Where were you today? You weren't at school." I said in realization and he looked up at the ceiling. "My mom, we found out that she-- uh-- has cancer." He said and my heart skipped a beat. "She doesn't have long, Liv." He said and my eyes welled up with tears. "I'm so sorry, Rook," I said before sitting down next to him and hugging him tightly. "She was devastated when she found out." He said before he wrapped his arms around me. His soft sobs filled my room and I started crying wi

I unzipped my dress before letting it fall to the ground. I stepped into the shower and steamy drops of water made contact with my skin. I closed my eyes before thinking about Cole. I bit into my bottom lip as I felt myself throbbing for him. I heard the door to the bathroom open so I frowned lightly before stepping behind the shower curtain. "Via." Cole's voice sounded and I breathed out in relief. I bit into my bottom lip before opening the shower door. Cole clenched his jaw as he was looking at my naked form in front of him. He was wearing some black Calvin Klein boxer briefs. "What?" I asked innocently and Cole smirked at me. "Wouldn't you love it if we finished what we started?" He asked before taking a step towards me and I felt butterflies in my stomach. "Come on admit it, you want me to bend you over and fuck you until you scream." He said as our faces were mere inches from each other. "Say I were to feel this way. What would you do about it?" I asked and Cole smirked at

I woke up to the sound of my alarm. Last night Cole locked himself in his room, so I figured he needed space. I rolled out of bed before grabbing a towel. I took a quick shower and when I was done I went back to my room. I got dressed in my cheer outfit and some white Nike shoes. I tied my hair into a ponytail before applying some cream to my face. I grabbed my backpack before leaving my room and going downstairs. "Good morning Uncle Ian," I said before sitting down by the kitchen island. "Good morning, Liv." He greeted me while his focus remained on the scrambled eggs he was making. "Have you spoken to Cole, yet?" I asked carefully and he looked up at me. "No, why?" He asked blankly. "Because you're his dad and he was clearly feeling bad last night," I said and Uncle Ian sighed. "What gives you that idea?" Uncle Ian asked in confusion. "This is going to sound rude, but it's not. Have you ever talked to Cole about his mom?" I asked and Uncle Ian frowned at me. "Yes and no." H

"I'll get out first. Please don't get out at the same time as me because we can't show up together at places anymore." I told Cole and he frowned at me. "Why not?" He asked in confusion before running his fingers through the curls on his head. "Because we're not together anymore," I said and he frowned. "And what does that matter? Can we just go?" He asked and I sighed before climbing out of the car. I remember what those girls were saying about me the other day in the bathroom. Now they'll just start another rumor about me. Cole walked next to me and I briefly looked up at him. The bonfire came into view and we walked towards it. Griff dabbed Cole up as soon as we reached him. The music suddenly sounded much louder and everyone was dancing wildly along with the music. I'm not drinking tonight."Hey, Liv!" Nina called me so I placed my hands into the pockets of Cole's cardigan before walking over to Nina and the cheer squad. "Liv!" Pai*e yelled before hugging me and taking a self
