AUSTIN'S POV "So, I won't advise us to make the mistake of getting a paper for this as it might later put us in trouble." He explained further and my head banged. "You know it could put us in trouble so why do you still want to do it? Why?" I questioned him and he smirked. "That's because it's fun." He replied. His reply made me angrier and it was like he intentionally came to my place that evening to provoke me. "I'm sure you remember me saying that this room is soundproof. They won't hear us from outside no matter how loud you scream..." I reminded in a low tone and he pursed his lips. "Okay, okay. I won't provoke you anymore. Let's just get to the point." He said as he brought out his laptop. "Tell me your rules and I will tell you mine." He said and I frowned. "Didn't you say we won't use paper? Why are you bringing out your laptop again?" I demanded. "Oh! I just want us to remember everything we want and immediately we are done, I will delete it all." He replied and I nod

AUSTIN'S POV"It's nice meeting you too, Jason" I replied half-heartedly.Truth be told, I wasn't okay with the sudden familiarity he was trying to pull with me and the smile on his face was something I wasn't appreciating either but I couldn't just wipe the smile off at that moment now, can I?He smiled more as he grabbed my hand and turned around. Without waiting for me to say anything or even ask me if I would be happy to go with him, he dragged me inside the stadium and only stopped when we reached a place where many people were shooting guns.The shooting range was wider than I expected and there were a lot of people there, learning to shoot, teaching and even chatting leisurely.Jason stared at them for a while before he shook his head and turned "Let's go to my personal space. We will be freer there." He said to me before practically dragging me there again.His attitude was strange, to say the least. He was treating me as if I was his younger brother and it was annoying me but

KELVIN'S POV"Should I drop you home?" Austin asked as usual and I shook my head. "I won't be going home today. I just got a part-time job as a home tutor." I explained, earning a confused look from two friends. "Part-time work? When did you become so broke that you needed to work part-time to get some money? Why didn't you tell us anything?" Tine was annoyed. He was staring at me impatiently, and I knew he was ready to throw a punch or two if my reply wasn't correct. After Austin told us about his ordeal with Adrian, we were angry about it for a while because Austin kept it away from us for several days while we were worried about him and since then, we all promised each other never to keep secrets anymore. The day Tine hung out with a girl without telling any of us, I was the first to punch his chest and since then, I knew he had been waiting for me to screw up so he could pay me back tenfold. I took a step back and forced a smile. "I'm not broke, guys. My family's business is

AUSTIN'S POVMy friends had been busy with their new jobs, Kelvin wouldn't stop complaining about how he hated being around Knight which was understandable as I would have hated to work alongside someone like Adrian too.Tine on the other hand was yet to get a nice job but he had been helping some friends on how to drive and he claimed to enjoy driving. He also told us he might take a jobteaching people how to drive which I knew would be nice as something of such would suit him well."Hey, When is the audition?" Sulking Kelvin questioned with his hands on his lap.He had remained frustrated since he started working a week ago but neither Tine nor I had a way of helping him. I even advised him to stop working but he claimed that wouldn't be possible because he had a crush on Abby, Knight's little sister.He showed us the picture and we all agreed that the girl was cute but would that really be possible? The only way he would ever have a chance with the girl would be to make up with Kni

ADRIAN'S POV Seeing Austin was really out of the picture. Among everyone I thought I might meet, he wasn't one of them at all. The reason being that he was always the introverted type of person. The Austin I knew would never say yes to acting as that would make him popular and he hated to be just that. Austin hated being the center of attention and he liked to be on his own. The way he acted toward me, the way he was nonchalant and the way he saved me from his friend was strange, to say the least, and it made me wonder if I had stayed too far away from him that I was starting to forget what he is like. The painful part was that my heart still raced for him. I still loved him nonetheless and I still wanted to conquer the world just so he would be safe and stay with me forever. "I was invited here." I finally managed to say to the raging Tine who seemed to be ready to decapitate me. Tine shook his head "Who? Who invited you?!" He yelled and I let out a deep breath. I really would
