She turned to her friends and added, “We shouldn’t jump to conclusions. He would never be interested in someone like Isabella.” The girls nodded in agreement, murmuring polite affirmations, but the words stung more than I wanted to admit.

Tom furrowed his eyebrow and looked at Avery, who was very displeased by Nate's presence. “Avery, what's this?” he asked, pointing at the tall guy in front of him. “I think you need to revise your grammar. We say who's this? when we refer to a person.” Nate scoffed. “I know exactly what I said,” Tom muttered. Damian couldn't stop his laughter, and Avery was surprised by Tom’s savage behaviour. She liked it. “You're trying to provoke me, right?” Nate frowned. Tom shrugged, “I don't have time to waste for you, so leave us.”

everyone raises a sign and it’s all Never. “Never have I ever broken up with someone” we all raise a sign and I saw someone who’s different. IT’s Joshua. “You know my past relationship?

Leo’s mother never allowed swearing in her house hold, not even his father could let out as much as a ‘shit’ under his breath and go scot free. “Where are you?” “At our hang out spot.” He said and I cussed under my breath, I had completely forgotten about the plans we had made. “You said you’d be here over 2 hours ago!” “I’m on my way.” I told him turning the car around. “Give me 10 minutes.” “Your ass better be here in 10 or I swear on what you hold dearest I will-” Not wanting to listen to his empty threats, I hang up and focused on the road and what lie I would make up for why I was late.
