Looking outside the window, my orbs scanned the ground where the girls were practicing the cheer dance.Today our school---Rainwood High; had a swimming tournament with the rival school. Sighing, I looked back at the teacher who was babbling about god knows what. “Ms. Vidal, care to repeat what I just said?” Miss Hale, the history teacher asked.The entire class became eerily quiet. Arching an eyebrow, I leaned back on my seat.Tsking, I shook my head in a no.She glared at me with a clenched jaw. The tiniest wrinkles appearing on the side of her face. “This kind of behaviour wont be tolerated in my class.” She hissed.Waving a hand at her, I blankly stared at her.Cant this old hag just shut up for once? Oh wait let’s just stab her annoying face. “Ma’am just throw her out of the class, she is not letting us concentrate.” A girl whispered. My eyes landed on the intruder and I snarled in anger. Fucking Lilliana and her bitch.“Why don't you shut up instead, nerd?” I sassed back. Her h
“Fucking gorgeous.”Flora sucked in a deep breath whilst scanning me from head to toe. “This outfit was definitely made for you.” She sucked in her inner cheeks, plucking her lips out.Licking my lower lip, I grabbed the pom poms from her.“Lesbian alert,” she smirked. Chuckling, we both strided towards the pool.“Trust me, the guys are gonna go nuts over you, again.” She nudged me in the side. Glancing at her for a moment, I shook my head in amusement. “Says the one who has half of the population behind her back.”“Oh girl, I was born to rule over them.” She winked and walked out.The smell of chlorine once again entered my nose, making me gag in response. A wave of nausea passed over my body as the bruises from the previous fight began to ache. Why was I freaking nervous? Why was it aching now? Fuck. “Come on, Tina.” Flora yelled from the other side. Blowing out a breath, I stalked in leaving behind all the pain that overflowed in my upper abdomen.I felt as if the time had stopped
The late afternoon had ended with us winning the tournament. Rainwood was the winner, only because of their Captain otherwise we would have been dead ants.Caleb looked a bit sad but his wide smile had lifted up the gloomy atmosphere that was lurking around his teammates. “Yo Lina.” Ares whispered from behind, earning a shriek from me. “Holy chicken nuggets.” I instantly turned around and saw him smirk at me. “The little girl gets scared too, huh?” He teased, giving me a childish grin.“Try that one more time and I swear to god you’ll be 6ft under ground.” I huffed with a pout.“Awh, I’m scared.” He placed his palm on his cheek, leaving me chuckling at his cute behaviour. “I swear you don't want to anger the one who knows how to kill people." Winking at him, I gave him one of my menacing smile that left him all flabbergasted.“Ares, stop bothering her, you annoying piece of shit.” Caleb tsked, as he stalked towards me with a raging Apollo following behind. “Back off, hottie.” Ares gri
Fucking nonsense. Three days had passed by. He never acknowledged me even if I sat beside him during Math hours.Fucking seventy two hours had passed since I heard his voice.After the tournament, I didn't had the energy to go to the party. Apologizing to the trio, I had ended up sniffling and crying in the room with a box of tissues beside me.How pathetic of me. Right now, I had been sitting in the corner near the window, nausea hitting me after every second. The bruises were still aching. That fucker landed some harsh punches on me. Got to deal with him later on. “Class finished. Don't forget to write the essay, the due date is next Monday.” The science teacher---Miss Hailey stated, arranging the books.Series of groans were heard from the students.Ignoring, I packed my bag and strided out towards the cafeteria. My group was no where to be seen, they were probably ditching school today since they had decided last night to escape this hell hole for a while.Lucky them.Grabbing
The little girl ran hastily in the middle of the night. Her little feet brushed against the thorny bushes on the muddy ground. Her labored breathing and the burning within her chest grew as her will to fight grew and grew after each second. The same deep voice ringing within her mind; “run as fast you can and don't look back.” The monsters she was told to hide from were chasing her without any effort. The adrenaline pumping in her veins left her all sweaty and tired. Her legs almost gave away when her body collided with the huge rock infront of her.“Catch her, quick.” Turning around, she saw several men just a few meters away. Grabbing the rock for support, she stood up and ran off again, without worrying about the pain that was surfing on her stomach. Her erratic thumping heart telling her to run for her life. Swiftly, she came across a small cave. The thick and protruding branches lingering infront of it having it concealed from naked eyes. She pushed herself inside, the sha
The bad memories often come back to you in your nightmares, disturbing the once peaceful moments of life.I was always a firm believer of love.Growing up, mom and dad had loved me, pampering my little self to such extent that it was impossible to live without them. Once, I tried to lock myself in the room all angry just because mama hadn’t bought me my favorite chocolate, but then daddy came running with a bag full of sweets and candies.Those days were the best days. No sadness, nothing. As time passed slowly, everything crumbled down, leaving me in utter emptiness.That day when he brought me to visit my dad, the naive girl within me thought he was going to let us live but I was wrong.Extremely wrong.He killed daddy infront of my eyes, slowly yet with immense torture. With daddy, he killed my soul as well. “Celestina?”Stay with me. The film was on repeat, cruelly. His dead gaze had erased me from this numb world. There was nothing I could do. Only to blame myself.The biggest
Destiny can sometimes be cruel. Very cruel.“Another one.”The guy infront me sighed as he rubbed the counter with the cloth. “Are you sure?”Nodding, I slid the glass towards him. “Stronger this time.” Shaking his head, he replied, “I’m afraid not. You’ve already drank twenty-two shots in a row.”Rubbing my temple, I looked at him in disbelief, “can't a human drink away their sorrows?”“You’re underage.”“And suddenly everyone dancing and drinking here---is at legal age.” Scoffing, I hopped off the chair.Digging through my purse, I roughly placed the cash on the counter. “Thanks for the service. Hopefully I never come here again.”Without hearing his answer, I stumbled out of the club.The off-shoulder tightened thigh length fabric around my body made it difficult for me too breathe.“Such a hottie.”Wiping off the sweat, I walked pass the group of drunken boys. “Hey baby, come here.” One of them said.Ignoring, I kept on moving until I was a few meters away from them.“Ignoring, da
Zachariah;Her eyes.Her slightest touch.Everything was intoxicating and addictive. My body yearned to be eaten up whole by her. She was a sweet yet sour candy who everyone wanted to swallow.It was wrong but it felt so right. That day when she had been conversing with those three guys from the other school, had sparked something within me. My hands ached to rip off there arms away from her. It was as if jealousy had consumed my insides.Was I that jealous? She was dangerously occupying my brain.The feel of her lips still lingered on mine. She was one of the dominant kind who wanted to have her way with everything. And I? I let her claim me like a piece of desperate human I was. Sighing, I took a bite of the chilli nugget burger.“-Zach are you even listening?”Tilting my head, I starred at Scarlett who had her both eyebrows arched at me in confusion. “Were you even listening to the rant?” She asked with a hint of anger to her tone.“Huh?”“Zach when are you gonna start acting li
