CHAPTER 81: STILL IN UNIFORM

JAXSON'S POV Sloane kept her hand firmly between my legs and leaned her body all the way across the center console. She pressed her lips directly against my jawline and tried to turn my face toward hers for a kiss. "Stop it, Sloane, I am driving," I said sharply, keeping my eyes locked on the busy road ahead of us. She ignored my warning completely and moved her hand in a slow circle. She kissed my neck again, this time biting down slightly on my skin. "Can you not see that I am driving this car?" I yelled, finally batting her hand away from my thighs. "You're distracting me right now, and we are going to crash.” Sloane huffed, "Then just pull over. There is a wide shoulder right up ahead." "No, I am not pulling over. I'm just not in the mood for this right now.” "Since when are you ever not in the mood for sex?

CHAPTER 82: EPIPHANY

JAXSON'S POVI nodded slowly at the police officer, still shocked by the whole thing."That is a very terrible situation, officer," I said quietly. "This never happens here. I hope the families get notified soon.""We are doing our best, young man," the officer replied, pointing his flashlight toward the road. "Move along now. The tow trucks are coming through."I rolled my window up and drove away from the flashing red and blue lights. The rest of the drive into the estate was very quiet. I pulled into our driveway and parked my car in the garage.I walked through the front doors and headed straight for the grand staircase. My mind already made up – I needed to talk to Clara. To apologize for Sloane's behavior yet again. Everything was making sense to me now. I was kinda seeing the world through her lens, and honestly, nothing was fair.I climbed the stairs and headed toward her room, running through what I wanted to say, when I heard laughing coming from down the hall. Lily was

CHAPTER 83: TODAY YOU LISTEN

CLARA'S POV My breath hitched in my chest. I opened my mouth to speak, to say how I truly felt when he called me Hulk, when he made fun of my weight and my looks in front of everyone. He looked at me, his eyes truly searching for an answer, but before I could speak, the bathroom door burst open."Is the dragon finished?!" Lily shouted, running back into the room.The tension broke instantly. Jaxson pulled his hand back up quickly, and I let out a quiet breath."It’s almost done," Jaxson said, still looking at me. He was breathing heavily, as if a scale had just been removed from his eyes.We spent another ten minutes painting tiny details on paper, but I couldn’t focus anymore. My mind was scattered."Alright," I said, standing up and wiping my hands on a damp towel. "That’s enough painting for tonight, Lily. We need to get you washed up for bed.""Aww, okay," Lily pouted, but she didn’t fight it.Jaxson stood up from the floor and wiped his blue nos

CHAPTER 84: BANG!!

JAXSON'S POV “What?" Clara said, sobbing lightly. “What the hell do you mean by that? Are you insulting me?" “No, not at all,” I said quickly, waving my hands in the air. “I mean, you have never really stood up to me before; you never stood up to anyone, and I …” "Jaxson, please leave!!” she cried out; her eyes were red and teary. "Wait, just hold on, let me explain what I meant…” “Just go!! Leave me alone, please!" “I didn’t mean to…” BANG! She shut the door in my face. I stood in the hallway, not sure if I should feel good or bad about what just happened. I really liked that she was standing up for herself. I honestly didn't think she had it in her. But maybe I got too excited and said the wrong thing. I definitely told her off without meaning to. I wanted to walk away, but then I heard her crying, sobbing loudly behind the door. "O

CHAPTER 85: TOO UPTIGHT

CLARA'S POV“Whoa, Lily,” I said, staring down at her bright face. “You were already sleeping last night when that happened.”“So I did hear right! I knew it!” she said, nodding her head up and down. “Hear what?” I asked, trying to keep my voice steady.“You and Jaxson talking about something,” she said. “I didn't really hear what you were saying, but I heard you both talking loudly. What was it about?”“Nothing, just school stuff,” I said quickly so she didn't have thoughts."That's nice." She said it slowly, thinking it over. "Really niceee.”“What do you mean?”“You guys are not close. You don't even talk to each other,” she explained. “You don't even act like classmates. I always talk to my classmates, even the ones I don't like.”And just like that, the whole thing moved from Jaxson and me onto every kid in her class who bugged her. I let her keep going. Honestly, I was happy to let her; anyt

CHAPTER 86: NOT TODAY

CLARA'S POV “But we live in the same house,” I said, looking straight into his eyes. “We go to the same school…” "It doesn't matter, Clara. We'd still need to…” “Whatever you need to tell me," I cut him off. “You could tell me in school or back here at home. Please excuse me” I turned around and walked back inside the house, letting the heavy front door swing shut. I thought it was over, but then I heard his quick footsteps right behind me. He followed me straight into the grand foyer. “Clara!” he said, reaching out and holding my hand. “Please just hear me out.” "What is it with you, Jaxson?” I yanked my hand off his grip and stepped back. "What do you need my number for? So you can save it as HULK?” He flinched a little, looking down at his phone screen before meeting my eyes again. "I'm sorry about that. About all of it. Calling you that… I didn't know better then, and now I…” “Now I don't

CHAPTER 87: JUST A BOY

JAXSON'S POVMaria was so shocked and rightfully so. My mother had spoken to me about this shopping trip yesterday, and I said a big no. But so much can change in twenty-four hours. Now here I am, inserting myself by force, just to be close to her.“But sir, your mother asked me to...” Maria started, holding her purse tight."Maria, please let Jaxson take us," Lily cut her off. “We will be back early, we promise. And Jaxson is fun.""But that's not the arrangement," Maria stammered."It is fine, Maria," I said firmly. "I'll take responsibility."I pulled the back door open wider and looked at Clara. “Here, go in."She walked in and sat down slowly, still maintaining her tight grin. She did not look at me at all.I shut the door and walked to the front. I sat in the passenger seat and told the driver to head to the mall. The heater blew warm air through the vents. We had a seamless ride to the store. The streets were busy, but the driver knew the best routes. I looked in the rea

CHAPTER 88: SHORT FLORAL DRESS

JAXSON'S POV"Rule number one," she said, holding up one finger. "We study in the home library. Not in your room. Not in mine. The library is a quiet space for studying. I do not want any distractions.”"That's fair," I said. "The library it is.""Rule number two." She held up a second finger. "You listen to me and follow my steps with the calculations. You don't argue about my methods.""You're the smart one here. I'm not arguing. Ever.""Rule number three." Her eyes narrowed a little. "We stick to the subjects you're not good at, or our assignments. No personal talk. Not about Maya, not about Lily, not about anyone. Strictly academics.""Strictly academics," I repeated."And the last rule." She gripped the doorknob tighter. "No jokes. No trying to be nice. We are not friends. I work here, and this stays professional. Understood?""Understood.""Good." She started to close the door. "Exams are close, so we'd study… I mean, I'll tutor you every da

CHAPTER 89: PEN DROP

JAXSON'S POVShe sat across from me and pulled out her notes, all business again. "Let's start with the assignments we had on Friday.""Fine, boss.""Don't call me that!" She spat."Sorry. Miss Tutor."She gave me a look, but I caught the corner of her mouth twitch before she looked back down at her notes. I opened my book to the right page and tried my best to focus on the numbers in front of me. But my eyes kept drifting up every so often to the small flowers on her sleeve every time she pointed at my page."Jaxson. Are you even listening?""Yeah," I said fast, snapping my eyes back down. "I'm listening.""What did I just say?""Something about the second equation."She raised an eyebrow. "Try again.""Okay, I wasn't listening. Sorry."She sighed, but not the annoyed kind. She went back through the steps, slower this time, tapping her pen on the page after each part until I nodded that I got it.Halfway through the second question, I actually solved one complex math prob

CHAPTER 90: DECEITFUL LIKE DEREK

JAXSON'S POVI took a deep breath, feeling relieved. I sat down on the edge of my bed and laughed a little."This isn't funny, Jaxson!" she snapped."I'm not laughing at you," I said quickly. I stood back up and stepped closer to her. "I am just surprised you were worrying about that, Clara. Because I deleted it.""You deleted it?" she said, her eyes wide with surprise."Yes. I deleted it that same week. Off my phone, off the cloud, everywhere I saved it. I even had it wiped from our server so nobody on staff could dig it back up."Clara shook her head. Her grip tightened on her book. "How do I know you are telling the truth?""Because I am," I said. “Look at me, Clara." I stepped in front of her and reached out, taking her hand gently. Her fingers were freezing cold. "I know I was a massive jerk to you. I did awful things, and I forced you into situations you hated. I should never have taken that video in the first place, let alone used it on you. That was messed up, and I know
