Two years ago my enemy Nick always teased, pranked and made fun of me, I never told anyone about the bullying because I was afraid of it getting worse than now. A Month later my parents and I had to move from Texas to New York for the sake of their company.
...****************...
[Back to Present]
Even through two years has already passed I still can't get the bullying out of my head. Then I got dressed, when suddenly my phone rang. When my two best friends Lilah and Emilia face timed me, I did my make-up and hairstyle. In the meantime I also told them about my crazy dream today, that my enemy moved here. After the call it was already 8:40 a.m. I panicked and rushed downstairs grabbing my bag, before I left the house my mom said "sweetie, don't you want to eat breakfast first before you head to school", I refused nicely even through I'm craving mom's breakfast "Thanks mom, but I can't, I'm already late!". As I arrived at school I went to my first class and sat down at my seat. The Teacher handed us our test that I totally forgot about to study for but luckily for me, it's a math test, and I'm pretty good at math. After the math test I just payed attention to the rest of the lessons, then I talked about the math test with my friends after the school. My friends Lilah and Emilia insisted me to come with them to the Party "You also deserve to have some fun after all the studying, we only live once, Mellow!!" said Emilia looking at me with that puppy eyes. Lilah was on her side and said "For once I totally agree with her." I replied "You know I can't resist your puppy eyes, right?! So, okay I'll come with you to the Party, but just this once!" They both were delighted as they heard me saying that, I'm coming with them, I couldn't help but smile.
[8p.m. at home]
I was getting ready for the party, put on my best dress, styled my hair, put on make-up and sprayed perfume on myself. Suddenly my mom came in my room without knocking and asked me confused while looking me up and down "Sweetie, what are you wearing and where are u going like this!!?" I told my mom that I'm heading to a party since it's my last year at high school. Then my mom got furious and forbade me from going or else she ground me for the entire summer holiday this year. I just stood there upset and nodded in agreement, when my mom left my room she told me to clean myself up. *phone rang* Lilah and Emilia face-timed me, then Emilia asked "Why are u still in your room??!" I replied "My mom doesn't want me to go because she wants me to focus more on my studies, so have fun girls" I smiled at them both. Lilah looked so disappointed, but Emilia said "Girl, we're not going to have fun without u, so get your ass here!" I laughed and told them that I'm fine, and they'll should just go and have some fun. Lilah disagreed with me and suggested I should climb out off the window, since my room was on the first floor. I thought about it for a long time and nodded at them, before making my way to the window. As I climbed out off the window, I saw a tall and handsome guy staring at me while he chuckled. I jumped off the window and walked towards him and said "Don't tell my mom, that I sneaked out!!" he said in a teasing way "or what?!?!" then I replied "Or else I'm going to be grounded for an entire summer holiday!" he looked teasingly with a smirk on his face and said "I'm not going to tell ur mom, only if u tell me were your headed!" I rolled my eyes at him and told him that I'm heading to a Party with my friends since it's my last year at high school. I looked at the time on my phone and said to him "And now if you'll excuse me, I have a Party waiting for me." After that i turned around and left him standing there, he just chuckled and walked off.
[At the Party]
As I finally arrived at the Party I looked around for Lilah and Emilia. After 5 minutes I found them sitting at the bar, so I went to them and said "Hey, girls! Missed me?" We all hugged and sat down to drink&chat. After a while both Lilah and Emilia's boyfriends came to ask them for a dance, they both agreed and went to the dance floor with them. I just sat there watching them from the bar and have a drink after another one, until I got so drunk that I put my head on the table and slowly closed my eyes. In a matter of seconds I felt someone's arm picking me up, and before I know it I was in a strangers car. I slowly opend one of my eye, so the stranger wouldn't notice anything. As time passes he stops the car and I immediately closed my eyes and pretended to be asleep. Then he put me on the bed and covered me with the blanket, suddenly he moved closer to my face that I could feel his warm breath on me. I thought he was going to kiss me without my permission, but surprisingly he pulled away and i heard him walked out from the room and turned off the lights.
[The next morning]
I woke up in a strange place with an extreme headache. I sat down and looked around this room and tried to remember everything from last night and how i ended up here in this room. As time passed by and I still couldn't remember anything from last night after the Party, I have no choice but to walk out from this room and see who this stranger is that brought me here. Then I smelled the delicious scent of pancakes from the kitchen and walked towards it. To my shock it was the same guy from yesterday that saw me climb out off the window, I spoke "Is this why you were so curious to know where I'm headed so you could kidnap me." he laughed and said "No, of course not! I just happened to be at the same Party as you were yesterday!" I just rolled my eyes at him and asked him where the bathroom is, he pointed to the door down the hallway. As I walked down the hallway I could hear him chuckle in the kitchen, that kind of made a smile on my face. When I opened the bathroom door, I froze in shock to see a guy half-nacked standing in front of me in the bathroom. Even through I tried to cover my eyes with my hands, I couldn't help it but look at his dripping wet abs and his wet hair. Of course he noticed me staring at his gorgeous abs, suddenly he spoke in a deep voice "Enjoying the view, sweetheart?" When I heard that I pulled my hands down to look at him straight into the face, and to my shock it was someone who I never thought I would meet again.
...----------------...
Who was that guy, was that someone Mellow knows? Maybe from the past? A crush who broke her heart? An ex maybe? Or her childhood friend? Keep reading to find out.
...... To be continued......
Mellow stood there frozen, unable to process what or who she just encountered. When she was awkwardly deafened by the silence, the guy whose apartment this belongs to, rushed towards the bathroom as he heard the commotion and broke the awkwardness between Mellow and that guy. He said "oh, looks like u have already met my buddy Xavier. I'm Colt by the way." Colt said while smiling and looking at me, then i just realized that i was wearing his big white shirt without any trousers. Then I awkwardly asked with my face flushed all red "uh...Colt, where are my clothes from yesterday?" he chuckled at me and said "There in the laundry. Don't u remember throwing up on ur outfit yesterday, princess?" I looked embarrassed and said awkwardly "uh, not really..." Suddenly my enemy Xavier coughed and said "Not to be rude, but I'm fr!cking hungry! Colt, did u make any breakfast?!" I rolled my eyes, then Colt answered "yea, Xavier. Breakfast is right at the kitchen counter." Xavier just walked right passed me, our hands almost touched, while heading out of the bathroom wearing just a single towel, showing his gorgeous abs and went to the kitchen counter. Colt and I also went to the kitchen to fill our stomach with some food.
[At the kitchen]
Even through it's wrong, i couldn't help but look at him standing there, drinking a bottle of cold water while showing his "abs!!" i said then realized i said it out loud. [shit, shit, shit!] i thought to myself, then i tried to think of something similar to say, so i wouldn't come of as a total creep "i meant, this breakfast is abs-olutely delicious..." i spoke and sighed out of relief, that i could come up with something that fast. Colt looked at me and smiled "thanks, i didn't know what u actually liked, but glad to know that u like my cooking." he said. I looked over to Xavier and i could swear i saw a smirk at the corner of his lips, and knew immediately that he didn't bought my excuse. I knew that it was a bad idea staring at him like that [What was I even thinking!!!? I can't possibly be staring at him like that, I HATE HIM!!] I thought to myself as Xavier noticed me zoning out and a smirk reappeared on his lips. I just shook it away and thought to myself how much I HATE him, so I could finish up my breakfast, and leave immediately afterwards, to head back to school.
[Arrived at school]
[In Art class]
I sat down at my seat and started taking out my notes and other art supplies. When the bell rang, the teacher repeated yesterday's lesson as a revision. After 30 minutes someone entered our classroom, I was too busy sketching to even notice who entered our class. That was until the teacher asked the student to sit next to me, not that I mind having someone sit besides me, it's just that today i don't feel like communicating with anyone, other than my friends. I let out a small sigh and began to look at the student who sat besides me. As I put down my pencil, turned myself towards the student to look at him or her, while saying "Just so u know, i don't feel like talking to anybody today, so don't bother me and focus on the lesson instead." Suddenly I gasped out of shock and confusion, when I couldn't believe my eyes, that the person sitting besides ME is whom I never thought i would be in the same class with ever again. I didn't even know that he/she chose art class, I never thought that he/she was even interested in art, since I saw him/her most of the times slacking off or skipping this class in our previous school, that's why I'm wondering why he/she is in art class. I was so confused, shocked and slightly surprised at that exact moment, and realized that I was still staring at him/her. Then I remembered that half the semester is over, and why she/he decided to come to the class now.
...----------------...
Who sat besides Mellow and why does the student only show up now even when half the semester is over? And why does Mellow look so shocked when he/she join her class? Is it Mellow's ex-bestie, her enemy Xavier or just a bitch from grade school who made fun of her? Keep reading to find out more about it! Stay tuned!
