“Annalise,” I exclaimed. “What are you doing?”“Do not test my patience right now, Revon,” Annalise snapped, giving me crazy eyes. “Why was Adam Kennedy defending you?!”Even in the darkened corridor, I could clearly see that she was a mess. Annalise always spent a ridiculous amount of time on her image, making sure that she looked perfect before stepping out of her bedroom every morning. I knew this because I’d seen her do her meticulous make-up routine multiple times.But that morning, she looked like she hadn’t slept for a day. Not even heavy makeup could hide the dark bags under her eyes, and her eyes were red-rimmed, as if she’d been up all night or crying. Her lips were scabbed as if she’d been biting them, and her clothes were rumpled, as if she hadn’t bothered to put them on with care.A very bad feeling settled in my bones.“I have no idea, okay, I’m as baffled as you are,” I answered, putting my hands up around her because she was holding onto my jacket lapels. “I literally

“What’s the deal with you and the Kennedy boy?” My mom asked me as soon as I stepped into the threshold.Wait, how did she know anything about us this fast? I just finished my first tutoring session.Then again, she had spies all over the place, so it shouldn’t have been a surprise. Everyone around town knew who Adam was, too.“Well, good evening to you too, mom. How are you doing?”“Cut it out,” Mom chided. “What’s going on? He came looking for you the last day as well, wanting to drop off an assignment.”“He’s a friend,” I replied, trying to move away from the conversation.“I thought your friends were all scholarship kids, and Annalise.”Hearing that name nearly makes me stumble over my legs.“Not anymore.”“How curious. Why would someone like Adam Kennedy suddenly befriend you?” Mom asked, more like she was asking a rhetorical question. She didn’t even look at me, just her own nails.I froze.“Why can’t someone like him be friends with someone like me?”“Revon, I went to Sawhill P

For a moment, I couldn’t move.It had been happening all these years, but no one cared enough to notice. Even my friends, who had sensed something was not right, didn’t question me further when I told them to back away.No one had certainly clocked that I was hurt.There’s a raw sort of anger in Adam’s eyes. His jaw was set so hard that it had to hurt, and his fingers, which were bunched around the fabric of my shirt, were shivering. His attention was solely focused on the mosaic of bruises littering my left flank.My mind flashed to the last time we’d been like this, him cornering me against a wall, with his hand on my body. My heart raced in my chest, and my throat felt dry.“Revon, you have to tell me,” Adam insisted, voice rough. “This looks bad. Who did this? Was it AJ and Jaice? I told those idiots to leave you alone! What happened?”That managed to snap me back to the present, and I shoved him away from me, righting my clothes. Panic rushed through me. I needed to get away from

Adam’s lips attacked me as soon as I managed to stand up after climbing into his room in the middle of the room via the window to his bedroom.“Mffff!” I let out a muffled yell, flailing as I lost my balance.But Adam, who seemed to have a plan for everything, smoothly used my loss of momentum to topple us both into his bed, which was conveniently near the window. “God, I missed you,” he said, pressing me into the bedcover between kisses. “It’s been far too long.”Giddiness erupted in my chest, and I felt like giggling. Before meeting Adam, I’d never felt this way before. It was like I’d been transformed into a romance novel lead overnight.Or more precisely, over the course of five days.It's been five days since we acknowledged that there was something between us and decided to pursue a relationship. Sort of. Since then, we have met two times. One for our tutoring session, and the other for a hookup.It was our first where both of us were in our right minds, and it was awkward. Fu

“Okay, Revon, we need to take you to the hospital right now.”I rolled my eyes as we made our way through the rows and rows of students to get to the one empty spot in the bleachers. I had no idea that the stands would fill up this fast. But can anyone blame me? I’d never been to one of these before, and I had no idea what would happen!It was late in the evening, and the atmosphere was buzzing with barely contained energy, and everyone was dressed in either the uniform or the school colors, grey and blue. Jerseys, letterman jackets, face paint, scarves-the whole nine yards. They wore various merchandise related to the school mascot, which was, of course, a blue-and-grey lion.The game was to begin in a few minutes, and the anticipation in the crowd was almost palpable. We were playing against one of our neighboring private schools this time, Halegrim Academy, which boasted a very capable football team that seldom lost.Adam and his team were in on a very intense match for sure.And fo
