After 4 years Kisses POV Finally, I have already finished college and have my own degree as a veterinarian. I am so happy that, despite the circumstances in life, I was still able to make my dream come true. My entire journey in college is not easy. It is like I’m on a roller coaster ride. Being far from my relatives and especially Daniel, is like I’ve been surviving. Daniel visits and sleeps in my condo once a week if he doesn’t have practice football. Despite all the hardships I have encountered, I am still thankful that there are people willing to extend their hand for help. Tomorrow is the day I have been waiting for. I am excited about having my diploma. I need to have beauty rest for tomorrow’s special event in my life. I wake up with a smile on my face. I feel mixed emotions: happy and sad. I am happy that my relatives and friends will be present on my special day. Sad because my parents will not be there. But still, I need to have happy vibes for my day. I quickly get a show
The much awaited day had finally arrived. Kisses Jackson would officially become Kisses Jackson Green and Daniel would finally marry the love of his life. All of the last minute preparations were being carried out diligently. The wedding was to be the event of the year. The groom, the biggest corporate honcho in all of North Carolina and the bride, a well established doctor and socialite. All the big names in both the industries had arrived from all over the world to witness their union. Back in his hotel suite, Daniel was fidgeting with his cufflinks in anticipation and nervousness. Today was the day the love of his life would become his, truly. ****************** Kisses Pov When the veil was finally placed over my face, the back of it pinned to my hair with a crystal hair pin I let out a breathe I had been holding in for quite some time. Kylie was yelling at the wedding planner to make minute changes over the phone to the decorations while the poor woman who was overlooking thing
“What’s that from?” Daniel says lifting up my sleeve a little more to reveal the obvious bruise. Shit I forgot about that one, “I bumped into my counter last night. You know me, clumsy” Daniel looks at me knowingly. “I have to get to class but I’ll meet you at lunch. My treat” I say running off to class. That was a close one. ~Rewind one month~ “Can we work at the project at your house?” Christine, my assigned partner for this lame project asks. “Um, I’m actually not allowed to have anyone over. Stupid family rule.” I say rolling my eyes and laughing a fake laugh. “Okay, I’ll just have to check with my parents when I get home. I’ll text you and let you know.” She says and I nod walking away. As I’m walking out of the Crystal Valley School doors I bump into someone while looking for my keys. It knocks me off my feet. “Shit, I am so sorry. I wasn’t paying attention and I was looking for my keys” “Yo Daniel, What are you doing? Let’s go” I hear a bunch of guys call and I finally
My alarm sounds quiet enough for me to hear but not scare me shitless. I grab the clothes I picked out last night and turn the shower dial to hot and wait for the water to heat up. This is the only time I can blast my music at home because my parents are at work. After I shower I do my hair and makeup and grab my change of clothes for after work and stuff them in my backpack. I throw on my black converse and run out the door. Once I get to work I go into Catherine, my managers office. I knock on her door and she calls me in. “Hi Catherine, I came to ask if I can have my hours changed for today after school. I have a project to work on with a friend if that’s alright” I say and she smiles at me. “Yeah honey, that’s perfectly alright. Just take today and tomorrow after school off. Don’t worry about it” She says and I quickly thank her. I start to get to work and right before my shift is done and I’m ready to go change my coworker, Cody, asks me to take the last persons order while h
I pull up to Christine’s mansion sized house pushing my idea to the back of my head for now. I quickly park and get my school bad and some supplies I had in my car already and walk up her Grand Staircase “Hey Kisses, come in” She says opening the door and pulling me into her house. “You have a beautiful house Christine. What do your parents do?” I say honestly curious. The house is 10x bigger on the inside. I didn’t even think it was possible. “My mother owns a fashion line called Brittney’s fashion co. and my father is a doctor” She says shrugging. “Can I live here? I bet you have an extra room” I say jokingly but in all seriousness. “Oh yeah totally” She says giggling as we sit down at the kitchen table. “Hello, you must be Kisses. I’m Martha, would you two like anything to eat or drink?” So called Martha says wearing an apron. “Martha, my parents aren’t home. Go watch TV or something. I can take care of myself. I don’t need a cook right now” Christine says giggling as my mout
I wake up to yelling and decide its not a good day to go to work before school. I text Cody and ask him to tell Catherine that I can’t come in because I’m sick. I know she gave me yesterday and today off, but I obviously hate being home. I check my phone to see a text from Daniel. Daniel: Good morning, I have football practice tonight, so if we can go anytime before 6 that would be amazing. Me: Yeah sure, we can go right after school if it works for you and Kylie. Daniel: Perfect, I’ll pick you up. Address? Me: It’s alright, I like to drive. That was close I don’t want Daniel knowing where I live just incase. I don’t want my secret getting out to anyone. Plus, Daniel and I just became friends. He may not even be my friend. Maybe he feels bad or it was a dare. I wouldn’t doubt it. With these thoughts running through mg head I sluggishly make my way over to the closet and chose a navy blue hoodie and a pair of black skinny jeans with my converse. I curl my hair and throw it into
I woke up a little before school ends to see a glass of water next to the bed along with my phone and book bag. A thin blanket covering me and the door separating the room and office closed to give me privacy. I pick up my phone to see texts from Daniel, Christine even Kylie. Daniel: Come back Daniel: Where are you? Daniel: Kisses seriously, wtf happened? Daniel: I’m fucking worried Daniel: Mother of all things large and small where’d you go? Daniel: Why aren’t you in any of your classes? Daniel: I’m going to the hospital Daniel: Dammit your not here Daniel: Are you still at school? Daniel: What’s your address? Daniel: I’m waiting outside the school. I’m be here till I have football practice. Me: I’ll be there Christine: Kisses Christine: He’s a dick, come back Christine: Where do you go? Christine: At least tell me your okay. Me: I’m fine. Thank you. Kylie: Where’d you go? Kylie: Daniel’s worried sick Kylie: He just punched the guy Kylie: Are you okay? You aren’
Recap: “No f?cking way. Your Kylie’s childhood friend. You’re the one who I had a huge crush on” Daniel says wide eyed. “Wait, what?” Kylie and I both gasp at the same time. Well shit Reality: Daniel just exposed himself for having a Childhood crush on me …. “Um, okay then. How about we do this homework” Kylie says as I shift uncomfortably. “Uh yeah, that sounds good” I say taking out my finished math homework and 5 other sheets of it, copying down the answers for a bunch of Daniel’s friends. “Uh, Kisses? What are you doing?” Kylie asks seeing the 6 copies of our math homework. “Doing some of the jocks homework” I say finishing up one page of it. “You still do that for them? Kiss, stand up for yourself” Daniel says taking the pages away from me. “Daniel, incase you haven’t noticed. I can’t fight. I don’t go to the gym or football practice everyday like you and the rest of the guys on your team. I’m the schools nerd who works two jobs just to make money to go to any college.
