บททั้งหมดของ The Bad Boy’s Fight Club: บทที่ 41 - บทที่ 50

We heard the door slam open and Hayden practically sprinted in.Scott, Drew and I who were camped in the living area all turned to look at him.“Geez Hayden, is there a freaking fire or something?” Scott asked.Hayden pulled on his collar as his neck turned pink.He walked over to us at a level pace.“Sorry, I just wanted to be here before you got the call. Any news?” He asked.The air in the room was filled with tension and I turned to look at Drew who sat across from me on the coffee table.He looked as white as a sheet. Neither Scott nor I could get him to eat anything all day and it was clear he was stressed about what verdict the judge would pass.I had even heard him wake up in the middle of the night to throw up.“Nothing yet.” Drew spoke. He let out an exhausted breath.A buddy of his from the courthouse said they’d give him a call when the judge made a decision. My testimony was only a part of it, they had to go over the evidence now.That lawyer, Mr Reed, had assured me that

Kaden spun around and the look on his face was of sheer shock. “Mia?” He let go of the guy he had been holding up. I saw the strange man drop to the ground groaning in pain, his face so bloody and swollen that his features were almost completely unrecognisable. Rand and another huge man stood behind them, his arms had been crossed over his chest and he almost looked bored as he watched the scene before them. “Hello brother,” Dylan spoke walking in past me. “Mia just stopped by to say hey.” My eyes were wide and I felt frozen in my spot as my eyes darted from Kaden to the guy on the ground. “Mia -“ Kaden tried to take a step forward but I flinched. My eyes focused on his blood stained hands as he tried to hold them up like he was calming a wild animal. “Mia, this is not what it looks like -“ I didn’t wait for another work and turned around immediately sprinting out of the gym. I didn’t stop to hear whatever Kelly was trying to sneer at me and I pushed the doors open. “Mia!

No. No, no, no.I thought to myself as I stared at the chemistry quiz results before me. A clear ‘45’ in red ink.I groaned internally and dropped my head onto my desk before sitting up again and looking at the grade like it would change.The last bell for the day rang and I was more than ready to filter out of the classroom feeling worse that I already was. And that was saying a lot considering Adele’s greatest hits was my current playlist of choice.I fished into my backpack taking out my earbuds ai that I could let her songs of despair fill my thoughts. At least that would stop me from having to think about how on top of another failed relationship, I was flunking school.But before I could, I heard my name get called out.“Mia?”I looked up and saw Mrs Keen looking at me from her desk. I sighed already knowing what this was about.I walked over to her and she gave me a kind smile.“How are you doing, sweetie?” She asked in a soft voice that reminded me she was the only teacher to

The next day at school, I made my way to classroom 14B.A small group of students were already gathered with scrolls of paper and different folders as well as colour swatches spread all over.There must have been about eight kids all talking over each other as they went about their business.I paused at the door waiting for someone to notice me amidst all the chaos. But it was clear that wasn’t going to happen.“I told you this won’t go with chartreuse! Do you even know what chartreuse is, Ross?” A mousy haired girl yelled out sharply at a big and burly kid.Half of me was ready to make a bee line right out of there. Maybe Mrs Keen didn’t know what she was talking about when she said this was exactly what I needed.Finally, I got the courage to clear my throat.No one turned to look at me or even spare me a glance.Clearly that tactic wasn’t going to work. I stepped closer to the chaos and cleared my throat louder.“Er herm!”This time I did manage to get their attention.Too bad eve

I always thought loneliness was an ailment that could be cured by simply just trying to forget.In my mind I thought I could convince myself that Kaden had never even existed. That our time together could just disappear like that if I threw myself into other things.So far getting into prom planning was taking up most of my time but unfortunately not all of it. I got into studying as much as I could and it also helped that Keri has practically become my new best friend.It was almost crazy how after that night Drew had brought her over, she had instantly won my affection.We had exchanged numbers after I had told her I was planning on beginning my college applications. She had told me to reach out if I needed help with my essays and I don’t know how that had shifted to us talking about music then clothes and then TV shows.Keri was great. She was cool and fun and super smart.Honestly, my brother was the real winner here. She was a total prize and not to mention, good for Drew. I coul
