KATHY POV
"I know I shouldn't be saying this but I can't stop thinking of what he said to Miss Rona".
"You'd look so much better on top of it....". Squeaky sounds were heard followed by giggling.
I tried so hard not to listen cos I too was suffering from the after effect of his words earlier but these girls behind me in the cafeteria were not helping matters and I so badly wanted to...
"Would you guys shut up and eat?"
"Am about to loose my appetite cos of the both of you". My dearly beloved friends Rubby and Lena said while glaring at them. I heard the sound of hurried footsteps and within seconds they were gone.
"I still don't know why we're here Kathy". Rubby said eyeing me and the entire cafeteria.
Yeah, I know that I don't usually eat with the other students cos we have a private cafeteria for that, amongst the upper class and this was just as a result of the mess my head was in that I just walked in here without knowing and Ruby and Lena came to find me.
"Kathy say something"
"Huh?"
"Are you serious right now? What's going on with you?"
"Just tired. Need to get home now". And just like that I got up to leave so I can clear my mind. Just a few more steps...
Bump!
I bumped into something hard but suprisingly smells good...
Wait! I know this smell! It's... It's.. him! I raised my face immediately to confirm and yes it was him..
Beat... Beat... Beat...
I came in contact with his eyes and gosh!
The hard thing was his chest... Does he work out a lot?
Having been hit with realization I tried to move away, not because I was scared but because this guy was just not good for my heart..
My heart was pounding like crazy and it hurts like hell and it was messing with my breathing and they were coming in jagged.
In my hurry not to make a fool of myself I missed a step and started falling backwards with a panicked look when a gentle but firm hold on my wrist drew me back up but stopped me from crashing down on his chest again. Am guessing he's a neat freak...
And just like that he put his hand in his pocket and walked away like nothing happened.
Look, I was just trying to get you off my mind, why did you have to create another mess in my heart?
One thing was for real, I was falling and at an unbelievably fast rate. And am definitely not taking my bath tonight...
Nina POV
I heard someone throwing things at my window while I was struggling to remove the annoying heels my mum got me. Why would anyone wear these?
I walked towards the window and saw my so called best friend outside the window.
"Open up"
"What happened to the front door?"
"It's really late". I checked my time, it was a little past ten PM.
"So?"
"Come on, that would be so cruel to the lovely couple and as a romantic I have an obligation to protect such beautiful moments". He said with a smirk. I was cringing inside, what a pervert!
"So are you just gonna stare at this handsome young master or are you gonna let me in?"
"Say that one more time and you'll sleep outside".
His tone changed immediately..
"Am so sorry kitty, it's really chilly out here and am being chased by female hunters".
"How many?"
"About six or seven"
"For this week?"
"No.. just today?"
I was shocked beyond words.. just.. just today! You broke up with seven girls in one day? You were dating all of them at once?"
"I won't say dating but seeing... And yeah at once, any problem?"
"You just keep breaking records don't you?" I said in unbelief. This guy just never ceases to amaze me. At this rate I shouldn't even be surprised but he keeps shocking me..
"Hope you at least gave them a proper break-up?"
"Yeah"
"What exactly?"
"A text"
"A text? What kinda text?" I raised a furrowed eyebrow.
"A broken heart emoji 💔".
To say I was shocked was an understatement....
Was this guy human at all? He had the face of an angel but the heart of...
"You... You.. did what?"
I couldn't get any words out... How the hell do I know this guy?
"You know what... You're sleeping outside. I can't stay with a heartless being" I said about to close my window when my phone started buzzing. And it was the heartless being outside, remind me to change his name from bestie to jerk!
"Why are you calling me?"
Silence...
Then a helpless sigh...
"Baby..." And my world froze... If it was in the past I'd roll my eyes with a bored face but ever since the incident at his place, my heart has been acting funny and am yet to understand it, and right now it was really acting up..
"Please... Else I'd be eaten alive and I just wanna spend time with you... Please baby, hmm?" He added cutely while my whole being softened and my face felt hot as I unconsciously fanned myself while trying to control the unsteady beating of my heart as I placed a hand on my chest...
"Like that would work?" I said after mustering up enough courage which was hanging on a thin line.
"You are the toughest girl I've ever met! How could you not fall for that? Every girl does!"
"Well am not every girl".
"True, you're different, special, my best friend". He said sincerely while looking up at me through the window where I was watching him with a phone to his ear. He was still as handsome as ever in an all black outfit with a leather jacket to it and with his blonde hair falling close to his face, contrasting everything but at the same time giving it uniform and class. He gave off the rich bad boy vibe which he is..
2mins later...
"Thanks kitty, I owe you one".
Scoff..
"Wait... What's that you're wearing?" He asked with amusement in his eyes as he stepped closer and his cologne filled my nostrils, God! He smelt so nice and fresh that I just want to hug him...
Get behind me Satan!
"Can't you tell?"
"I can but it's just weird seeing you in it" he said trying to hide his laughter while I rolled my eyes. Yes am wearing a dress , my mum is trying to turn me into a 'lady' cos I look too much like a boy. But the dress was just not my size and I was having the biggest challenge of my life trying to unzip the annoying dress but I just can't reach.
He sat on the he bed while I stood up struggling with the dress zipper cos it was getting annoying.
I walked up to him as he was busy on the phone.
"Little help?" I said as I turned my back to him.
I felt him behind me as his cologne filled my nose again... His warm breath was on my neck as he leaned over me to get the zip.
After a few struggles he got it open. At first he was fast but just as fast as he opened it he stopped.
Very slowly, he unzipped it..
I felt his eyes intensely on my bare back making me conscious of how close he is to me and trust me, it didn't help matters at all.. I heard him mutter something in Italian which was his mother tongue. He barely spoke that language except when he's terribly angry or totally amazed, sometimes he used it to charm the ladies . I looked a little beside me and caught his reflection in the mirror. He looked like one in a daze and the look in his eyes were starting to tight the knot in my stomach.
Suddenly, I felt cold fingers tracing the line down my bare skin, sending shivers of electricity down my spine. That was the first time I felt something like this and it made my breath shaky as I held tightly to the hem of my dress.
Chen POV
"Madre de dio..." I couldn't help but stare at the... Flawless skin before me. It was my first time seeing her bare back and I couldn't help staring untill I could no longer bear to know how it feels..
It felt as smooth as velvet and as soft as... God! I wanted to see more as I slowly brought down the zip and my fingers followed suite as it got closer to the small of her back. While my heart was pounding like crazy I heard a shuddered breathing followed by sharp breath.
It took the utmost resistance and self control not to kiss every inch of beautiful skin on her body..
I've seen a lot of skin from different ladies but it's the first time I've seen any this pure and beautiful that makes me wanna press my lips to every inch. Maybe it's because it's my first time... She's always so buttoned up and closed up with her clothes.
"Ch... Chen?" I heard a strained whispered voice that alerted my senses. It was so pleasing to the ear..
"Hmm" was that my voice?
She tried to look back and her eye came in contact with my mine. I held it... And very slowly I unzipped the rest of the dress. I broke eye contact to take a good look at the beauty before me. I swallowed really hard as...
Nina POV
He held eye contact with me making my already messed up heart beat like crazy... What exactly was this feeling??
It was the way he stares at me, the look in his eyes when he stares at mine... It was making me tipsy and I wasn't even drunk! There were butterflies in my stomach..
I saw his Adam's apple go up and down and believe me when I say I've never seen anything so sexy! .
Quickly I turned around to face him cos his stare was beginning to burn into my skin and the sensation from it and his fingers earlier on was messing with my sanity and I didn't trust myself one bit.
" I'll go change now" with that I ran into the bathroom but before I closed the door I caught sight of him running his family fingers through his hair in frustration .
Anderson POV
He just sat there but was creating havoc in the hearts of many.. girls to be precise . Yeah, he's really handsome, I got it but why the unnecessary squealing .
My ears are about to burst open by the amount of squealing that was going on around me. I came out of the classroom cos it was so noisy and choose to stay in the empty field till this 'being' came and brought with him an army of squealing girls. Don't they have better things to do?? And the annoying part was that they were directly behind me. I tried to push it all behind me and forget that they were even existing.
Something fell on my book, in the middle of the page I was reading. I adjusted my glasses to make sure I wasn't imagining things.
Right in front of me was a chewed gum in it's wrap! I turned around quickly to see him opening another one and throwing into his mouth. My blood was literally boiling as I turned around to face the annoying person behind me.
"Could you please take your product which you kindly dropped on my beloved book?" I said, doing nothing to hide my disgust or the sacarsim in my words.
Very gently, he turned and his full face came in view...
Okay, this guy was gorgeous! Those deep blue eyes with a bored and lazy expression were to die for! I can actually see myself in them. His dark brown hair was constantly playing in the wind with gentle waves constantly making them get in his eyes but did nothing to hide his beauty but rather improved it. His skin was as flawless as the sun reflecting on his face. For a moment there , I lost it..
What was I saying?
Right I was supposed to be angry .
I raised my book closer to his face and he raised an eyebrow at me. Obviously dumb!
"Your product..."
No response.
"This is as good as littering"
No response.
"Did you even hear me?"
No response. I was getting irritated and frustrated. What's this guy's problem?
"Didn't anyone teach you any manners?"
The bored expression was no longer in his eyes as it got replaced with amusement and a glint of mischief. He turned around fully with his two hands in front of him and his head tilted to the side like one checking a person out. Meanwhile my face was a darker shade of red due to unspeakable anger. I picked up the gum and pasted right across his shirt, making sure to draw it as a satisfied smirk played it's way to my lips.
"If you wanted my shirt that bad you could have said so?"
"What?" I nearly exploded!
"Am not that stingy you know".
How shameless! He was getting amused by the second, what the freaking hell was amusing him?
"You"
"What?"
"You're amusing me".
"Did I say that out loud" I thought.
"No you didn't, it's written all over your face".
"Psyco!"
"Am definitely one in bed..." Then came the squealing .. I almost forgot we had company.
"I don't need to know that! You jerk".
"Jerk? Interesting... especially for a nerd... What's your name sweetheart?"
"Like I would ever tell you..."
"ANDERSON!!! THE PHYSICS TEACHER IS ASKING FOR YOU!!!"
That was my classmate calling me from a distance...
I face palmed myself.. such perfect timing!
"Anderson it is..but I still prefer sweet heart".
I glared at him and after adjusting my glasses I walked off, though I could still feel his gaze on me... What a psycho!
Darren POV
I watched as she left with her black hair bouncing from the ponytail it was made into and the wind playing with the loose strands... She'd look so much better with her hair down and without that hideous glasses , nerds... What's there problem? But she was really cute, especially when mad, you could see the flames in her eyes.
Chen POV
A girl just walked past me fumming but I didn't really mind it cos I was here to get a certain someone.
Wait... Darren was smiling? I looked at the direction he was looking at and it was the fumming cute girl.
That's new... We've been friends since the beginning of highschool and I must say we just clicked! We were clearly the opposite of each other but at the same time similar...
We were both from top rich families.. first sons and yeah, players... If I was bright as day, then Dan was as cold as the night sky. If am hot as fire, he was cold as ice and we kinda complement and understand each other. Just like he knows about my family issues, I know about his.
We were like two sides of a coin..
But he'll never admit that I was better looking than him .
"In your dreams". I was shocked.
"What?"
"You're no where better looking than I am".
I touched my head and crossed my heart..
"You reading minds now? You doing that weird sh**again".
"It's written on your face".
"Ain't nothing on my face bro, stop playing with me". He chukled.
"You actually smiled! That's the first time in three months! I need to thank whoever was responsible for this". Then it hit me.. the fumming cute girl was she a hard nut to crack?? That was impossible! Dan could get any girl he wanted... Think I have to know more about this lady she maybe useful in teasing him.
The next day...
