All Chapters of Tempting The Bad Boy: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Outside, I notice the grey clouds that are moving in overhead. What started out as a beautiful, bright, sunny day is quickly turning cold, windy and threatening to rain, but nothing could dampen my spirits, I'm having the most wonderful birthday, even if the weather doesn't want to co-operate.I questioned Andy relentlessly as he drove, trying desperately to just get a single hint out of him of what he had planned, but he dodged each question masterfully by showering me in compliments and admiration. Eventually, I stopped asking, realising that he was never going to crack, but when I saw him turn off the highway and follow the road down to the beach, I had a fair idea of what he had planned.He parked his car in the empty parking lot, instructing me to wait in my seat while he unpacked items from the back of the car. I turn around in my seat, trying to catch a peek at what he is pulling out, but I can't see because the backseat blocks my view.He walks around to my door and opens it f

ClaireClaremont and Brixton had a long-standing rivalry when it came to soccer, dating way back to when Dad first reformed a Claremont team. According to Dad, Brixton were undefeated champions because they scouted other schools for the best players, offering scholarships in exchange for joining the winning team. Being invited to play for Brixton was a huge honour, and it opened so many doors for the players after their final school year, with a majority going on to play for national and international teams, but all that changed once the Claremont Bears won the school district championship, their first year of playing as a team.Parents of budding soccer players soon realised that they didn't have to fork out money for Brixton's overpriced tuition fee, just to get their child onto the Bulldogs. They had an equally superior team that was available at a public school, one that was being coached by a former professional player. Dad dropped the team fees that all schools have that cover u

AndyIf I'd learnt anything in life, it's that whenever things appear to be going great, there's always something lurking in the shadows, ready to fuck up everything. It's like I'm forever waiting for the other shoe to drop, for my happiness to be snatched away, so I never fully allow myself to get too comfortable, but with Claire, I feel like I'm finally discovering true happiness that can't be destroyed.Claire coming along to watch and support me play tonight was something I'd never had when I was with Pia. It made me feel like a superstar, out there on the field, scoring goals while my girlfriend cheered me on. I also liked that Claire was making an effort to get to know my friends, not trying to separate me from them.What surprised me more than anything was how comfortable she was with sex. I'd prepared myself for there to be an awkward, shy stage from both of us, hers steaming from her lack of experience with sex and mine from not wanting to frighten her off, but I couldn't hav

ClaireI can't help but wonder if he's been looking at Jupiter's social media and seeing the new flurry of likes and comments that have been coming from Adrian. Sebastian doesn't have Instagram himself or any social media platform, claiming that it was under his dad's recommendation to keep a clean reputation for when he applies for university next year. I highly doubt, though university administrators would be able to find any dirt on clean-cut Sebastian; he doesn't drink at parties, opting to stay sober to drive the drunks home safely, he has never touched drugs, rarely swears and maintains a strong grade point average."I didn't know you had friends from Claremont High." Seb comments, not taking his focus off of Adrian."Yeah, they're Andy's friends, they're really nice, actually," I tell him, feeling the urge to defend the boys. "How did you know they went to Claremont High?"Sebastian breaks his focus on the boys, shifting it back to Jupiter and me. The cold, hard look he had bef

AndyEd and I haven't agreed on anything for well over a year now, our friendship had died the day I started dating his ex, but right now I knew he was right, more than anything I'd witnessed. There's no way Adrian would have betrayed me; his loyalty to our friendship was one thing I could always count on. Even when I'd pushed him away, he was still there.I shift my focus to Kyle and then to Nate. I hadn't been on the soccer team that long, but in that short time, these two had become my friends, cheering me on when I scored goals and encouraging me but that was all surface level, what if, underneath their friendly mannerisms there was something more sinister? Were these two capable of drugging and raping innocent women? If they were, then why would they go after their friend's girlfriend?Another thought then hit me: what if the attacker had already fled the scene once everything went down? This was the closest they'd come to getting caught; they would have felt the heat bearing dow
