Semua Bab The Green-Eyed Neighbor Who Stole My Heart: Bab 1 - Bab 10

My moms face falls a little which makes me feel kind of guilty. But I don't want to get her hopes up. Like I said, I'm not looking for a relationship, especially at my age. I've gone on dates before, but I've made sure not to get close to any of the guys. I just want to get through High School, and go to a college away from here, no more strings attached than I already have to this town. Because the way I see it, the whole reason for me to date someone is to find my future husband, and I don't believe in long distance relationships, so there's really no point in me dating until I'm out of high school. Like they say, if you aren't dating for marriage, than you're dating for heartbreak."Right. Of course," my mom replies dryly, disappointment clearly evident on her face.After I'm done eating, I clean my dishes and race up the stairs where I slip on a gray t-shirt that's loosely tucked into a red skirt, some sheer panty hose with big black polka dots, and a pair of black ankle boots. Ye

It started as an annoying buzz, and progressed to a shrill beeping. My alarm. I blindly smacked my hand over the device that was blaring into my ears and disrupting my sleep. It stopped. However that alarm had brought with it my mother."Wake up!" I hear my mom demand as she opens my bedroom door."Mmmm. Don't want to." I groan turning my head the other way so the sun is no longer in my face."Get up! Its Monday. You need to get ready for school.""Mondays suck..." I groan groggily, not capable of normal human speech quite yet.At that my mom laughs lightly."Well isn't that the truth. But you need to wake up. Come on." She reiterates, giving my arm a little shake for good measure."Okay, okay, I'm up, I'm up." I assure her, lifting my head up slightly.Mom smiles in a satisfied way and turns around. "Good. I'll get your breakfast started." She says as she walks out the door.I lay there in my bed for a few minutes longer, dreading getting up and out of my beautifully soft comforter a

Oh no. No, no, no, no.I glance over at Asher to see him in the same position he has been in this whole time, except now he has a small smirk playing on his annoyingly perfect face.What a pompous jerk.There was no way I was going to let him win and see me embarrass myself in front of the whole class. The way he confidently sat back in his chair clearly showed that he didn't believe I could come up with anything. That I would just stand there with nothing to say in front of the class.No. That's exactly what he wanted,So, that's exactly what he wouldn't get.I stand up with shaky hands and wipe them on my sweater, trying to calm my racing heart.Squaring back my shoulders and lifting my chin up, I totally wing it last second. "Hello. I'm introducing Asher Lester, his favorite color is hot pink, his favorite show is My Little Pony. He takes ballet, and enjoys dancing alone in his room when nobody is watching. His favorite thing to do is bake snickerdoodles, while rocking out to Justi

I'm sitting in the dimly lit library all alone. My favorite Librarian whom I have known for four years, Mrs Curtly has left the keys to the library for me just as long as I lock the door when I leave, something she's technically not supposed to do, and could definitely lose her job over if anyone found out, but she's been doing this special for me for a long time since I've gained her respect and trust.I'm studying some boring world history book when I feel myself drift off to sleep.A quiet yawn escapes my lips as I rest my head down on my bookI'll only sleep for a secondI tell myself even though I know it isn't true.Just as I'm about to drift off into dreamland, I hear a loud bang come from the back of the library. It sounds like a large stack of books falling. The sound instantly jerks me out of my sleepiness. I stand up and look around."Hello?" I call out as I cautiously walk towards where I think the sound came from, my heart pounding in my chest.When I look down the aisle,

The next day at school I was walking to my locker with Lyly when I see Asher. As soon as I see him I imagine him wearing a red mask and black hoodie.I shiver at the thought. What is with this guy? Following me around, watching me, scaring me. He wasn't going to get away with this. I wouldn't let him.I start to walk up to him, when Cassandra beats me to it. She instantly wraps her arms around his neck and starts kissing him. I stop dead in my tracks. Watching them for only a few seconds before I turn around and walk back to Lyra."What were you doing?" Lyra asks."I know it was him last night. I just know it. So I wanted to say something, let him know that I wasn't fooled." I answer.Lyra gives me a long stare, but slowly she nods "okay" she agrees simply, though I could tell that she didn't actually agree with me, she just didn't want to argue on the matter.The bell rings and we go off to class.🔹🔹🔹As I'm walking to my English class, I feel somebody grab onto my shoulder, adren
