Angelo's POV
"Are you okay? Did you get hurt from earlier?" I managed to start a conversation. She shook her head, not saying a word as we walked.
Damn! She was so short, that I could see the top of her head, and her petite figure made my eyes travel. Kiara was one pretty girl, and it would be interesting to play this game.
I would make her brother mad by the time I was done with her.
"Earlier... when you were..." She began, her cheeks turning pink all of a sudden.
"Fucking the maid?" I finished, a smirk on my face because she was too naive.
"Yeah, why did you do that?" She stopped walking, facing me. My eyes travelled to her small pointed mounds. She wasn't wearing anything underneath this shirt... I thought.
"Hello... Angelo?"
"You were saying?" I blinked.
"Nevermind. I guess you're just like every other guy." She murmured.
"What? No! I didn't fuck Samira because I wanted to. She threw herself at me, I don't force girls to open up..." I explained.
"But you still did, that's the point," I heard her say.
I had to clear the air! "Kiara, whatever you saw earlier... You shouldn't have seen it. I'm sorry I yelled at you, I was just so shocked to see you." I said I was trying hard to sound sincere.
She looked up at me before smiling. "So, friends now?" I asked her.
"Yeah, friends. But no one has to know okay?" She said.
"I almost forgot Kenzie doesn't want you around guys like me," I told her. She arched her brows, looking confused.
"Remind me why my brother is so mad at you?" She asked.
"I don't know, I guess he'll tell you that himself. Wanna come for a ride?" I suggested and she nodded, her pretty face lit up with a smile.
"Great, I'll grab my keys while you change into something more appropriate,"
"No, I'm not changing my outfit," She shook her head.
"Fine, I'll be back," I smirked at her childishness. Let the game begin!!!
Kenzie's POV
"Kenzie," Mum called over the phone.
"Mum, you're worried over nothing. I'll give her a call okay? I love you," I smiled.
"Love you too son," Mum replied. I could tell she was smiling as I hung up. I dialled Kiara's number but she didn't pick up.
Maybe she was having fun with her friends. I didn't want to get her mad by poke-nosing. Noticing a crowd gathering around the teddy shop, I walked over... Since my friends, we're calling my attention to it.
A guy stood at the claw machine, his hands on the claw as the crowd cheered him on. "Why are they cheering?" I asked Violet.
She shrugged and pointed to a girl who held a very large white teddy. I could easily recognize her. That was my sister Kiara, and what the fuck was she wearing?
"What the fuck is going on? That's... That's Kiara," I stammered. I was already as mad as walking over to her and taking her back home. She ran to the guy and hugged him.
"Why are you so mad? She's not a child for you to keep tabs on," Violet held my clenched fists.
"What are you saying? Kiara is just fifteen... She's still a child okay? Who's the guy?" I asked.
"I don't know, he's on a hoodie so..." Violet turned. Our eyes were fixed on Kiara as she giggled. This mystery guy was holding her hands now and they got into a car.
"Kenzie, let your sis have some fun okay? I get she's still naive, and you don't want her getting hurt, but then, you can't stay with her forever." Violet placed her palm on my back, rubbing it soothingly.
Kiara's POV
"Yeah, thank you so much." I smiled, my eyes on him as he drove.
"You are so cute," He reached out and pinched my cheeks which were red as a result of the blushing. We had spent the whole of the day having fun and he took me out for dinner.
Angelo was such a gentleman and to be honest, I loved this side of him. He won two teddies for me, I couldn't wait to show them off to Dani and Kristine.
"Do you know what a blowjob is?" He suddenly asked,
I frowned... Confusion set on my face. "Uh?" I asked.
"Never mind, we wouldn't wanna pollute your innocent mind, would we?" He smirked.
I took my lower lip in. I didn't want to be innocent, heck, I wanted to be the bad girl who Angelo would like. "I'm not that innocent," I said, putting on a brave face. I was slightly annoyed he was referring to me as innocent.
"Of course you are. There are lots of things I wanna say to you. Things I wanna do to you... for fun but no!" He glanced at me briefly before lowering his eyes and I could feel the weight of his stares on my exposed thighs.
"Cover up, baby girl," He said, grabbing a thick denim jacket with his free hand and handing it to me.
"Thanks," I smiled. Truth is... I didn't want to cover up anymore. I've been covering up all my life and that's why everyone thinks I'm a baby. I don't want to be naive or innocent... Or looked at as if I'm a child.
I want to be bad! Like Kristine... And like every girl that Angelo has been with... And I will. From today... I would never cover up.
"You're Dani's age, right, meaning you're sixteen, right? I know a lot of..."
"Not yet," I cut in, my hands fumbling with the jacket. It was too big considering how small I was. "I'll be sixteen next week."
Angelo had a surprised look on his face but it changed almost immediately. "Home, sweet home." He said stopping the car. I hadn't realized we were at his home yet, but I unbuckled my seatbelt and got down, walking behind him into the house.
He seemed to be walking faster than I was so I quickened my pace. "Hey gelo, are you okay?" I asked, and without sparing me a glance, he rushed up the stairs, leaving me alone.
"Is he okay?" I murmured, taking my lower lip in. The fact that he had ignored my question and went upstairs without even saying good night, made me sad.
I clutched the two teddy bears tightly to my chest as I climbed the stairs. Dani's room door was open when I got there. She sighted me first and ran to hug me.
"How was it?" Kristine asked,
"We just saw Angelo slam his door. Don't tell me you both fought?" Dani pulled me to sit with her on her bed.
"Kiara... Talk to us," Kristine pouted,
"We were okay just now. But he... he just left without saying a word. He didn't even say good night," I rolled my eyes,
"Angelo is such a dick!" Kristine uttered, I and Dani frowned at her, and she shrugged.
"Don't think too much about it okay? Come on... Get some rest. Who knows maybe he will tell you why he acted that way." Dani stroked my hair.
But he didn't. The next morning, we all gathered around the table for breakfast and Angelo didn't even say a simple hi to me.
He just ate the cereal slowly, his eyes on the bowl. I kept staring at him, my meal untouched. And when he raised his head, I looked away.
"Gelo, what are your plans for the day?" Kristine asked, I frowned. Did she just call him Gelo? Since when did they get that familiar?
"Nothing much. Why, pretty?" He smiled at Kristine. My hands tightened around my spoon. He didn't just say that. He had never called me pretty,
"Mind joining us? We are going to see a movie," Kristine said again,
"Sure, I'd love to." He replied, our eyes met but he looked away. Gosh! He just acted like I was invisible, I bit my lips slowly... trying to stop the pool of tears that was forming in my eyes.
"Kiara? You okay?" Dani asked me,
"Yeah... I... I'm fine." I nodded. I took a look at the three of them. Angelo, openly flirting with Kristine, and she didn't even try to stop him.
She seemed to be enjoying it. Dani was lost in her world, she was engrossed in her phone. She was probably chatting with her crush, she didn't want to tell me about.
I felt left out. Angelo had made a fool out of me. I thought he saw me differently. Maybe I was wrong, I got up,
"Kiara," My friends called me, I went up the stairs to Dani's room and grabbed my duffel bag. I hurriedly began folding my clothes back into the bag. I wasn't welcome here,
"Where are you going?" A familiar voice startled me. Angelo? I turned to the door but it was just my imagination.
"Oh darn! You are so... whipped," I mumbled. "Why would he come looking for you? You aren't even his type of girl. Kristine is," I said aloud.
"Are you talking to yourself, baby girl?" The voice from earlier came again. This time, I looked at the door and there he was.
Looking as hot as ever, his hair... I shut my eyes. I shouldn't be having such thoughts. "Angelo?" I muttered, reopening my eyes... he was still by the door.
"Where are you going?" He asked me, his hands in his pocket.
"Back home," I replied, my eyes avoiding his.
"Did I do something wrong, honey?" He looked curious. I found his curious face kinda cute... And did he just call me honey?
"Don't call me that!" I tried to sound stern, he chuckled before walking into the room and shutting the door behind him.
"What are you doing?" I frowned,
"Tell me, what did I do? Why are you so mad?"
"You told me we could be friends. And you just ignored me. I said hi to you this morning... You ignored me. And you don't like girls like me but you like girls like Kristine... And you said she's pretty. What am I to you?" I blurted out, a streak of tears finding its way to my face.
"Kiara? Stop being delusional," He barked, his eyes giving away his angry expression.
I gasped. He thought I was delusional?
"I am not..." I tried to say,
"We are just friends. Nothing more than that, and if you think there's anything else then you're wrong. Yeah, Kristine is pretty, and hot... She's a woman and not a baby. Stop comparing yourself to her," Angelo's words only made more tears slip out.
"Fuck! Why are you crying?" He groaned and made to touch my hands but I flinched.
"See? You're just a child." He said, turning to go.
"I am not a child," I said, loud enough for him to hear.
"Did you say something?" He turned a smirk on his beautiful face.
"I said I'm not a child," I managed to say again in defence.
"Let's see... Have you ever had a boyfriend? Have you ever been touched? Have you ever been fucked? Do you even know how to please yourself? You don't know what a blow job is... You cry at every little instant... You are a fucking child!" He spat.
I broke into a sob, not caring if he decided to call me a baby anymore. He watched me crying for a while before shaking his head and opening the door he had locked.
The last person I had expected to be here rushed into the room the moment the door opened and he ran to me. Seeing my brother here only intensified my cries...
"Kia!" He called, his eyes turning red on seeing my teary face. I held on to him, crying my eyes out.
"What did he do to you?" Kenzie asked, his voice as low as possible. I shook my head, not wanting to say a word, but my brother rushed to Angelo, who was by the door, and he threw his fists at him.
"No! Kenzie... stop!" I screamed, Kenzie got off a bleeding Angelo after he felt like Angelo had gotten enough. He walked back to me...
"Are you okay? Did that son of a bitch touch you?" Kenzie asked,
"No, I want to go home," I said weakly.
"Come on," He pulled my hands. We passed Kristine and Dani downstairs without acknowledging them. And by the time I got into the car... Seeing my brother's disappointed face, I knew I had messed up big time.
"Kenzie..." I called,
"Wait till Mom and Dad hear this," He muttered under his breath, and my eyes widened.
