The day went by faster as expected.
Arianne spent extra 2 hours in the library to do some editing for the upcoming issue of their school's journal. Both Alexis and Kristinn already submitted their article that's why she was left alone. She didn't even notice its already six pm until she checked her phone for any message or call.
She lazily packed her things and headed to her car. Just to be surprised by the scene there.
Kyle, Mason, Kristinn, Alexis, Jace and somebody clinging to him whom she never get the chance to recognize, are all standing outside her car.
And as she walks closer to them, ladies and gentlemen please welcome Amber Prescott! Their school resident slut! Please give her a round of applause! Hahaha! Arianne cant help but to smile at the thought.
"hey guys!" she greeted them as soon as she come nearer pretending not being affected by the scene of Jace and Amber making out in front of almost everyone to see.
"hey Yanna! We've been waiting for you." Kristinn exclaim and giving her a "I can't believe it's happening look".
"didn't I told you I was working in the library?" She replied looking tired.
"yeah yeah like some nerdy stuff Yanna?" Mason said standing closer to Kristinn.
"oh yeah! nerdy thingy it is!" then she plastered her fakest smile.
"ahmm Yanna we're going to Jace place you wanna come with us?" Kyle said directly at her.
"no thanks! I'm not done with my editing yet. I have to finish it so I can show it to the principal first thing tomorrow morning!"
Yeah that's the biggest alibi that she can think of. She just don't want to see Jace and Amber right now.
They already stop sucking each others faces but she can still feel the pain deep inside. Omg what is it? Am I already falling for that jerk? I hope not, finger crossed. Arianne told herself
"Ohh I thought you've met your deadline already?" Alexis ask suddenly.
She gave her a knowing smile that means "just don't".
It's a good thing for the three of them, they have this kind of connection where there are things that they dont have to spell but still can read it. They can totally understand each other well even without saying anything.
"no Lex I still have to do some revision. So see you guys tomorrow then?" She tell it more to her friends.
"hey Yanna what about me?" Jace letting go of Amber strong hold said.
Arianne frowned, confuse of what he just said. Then she remember their conversation about the tutoring thing.
"of course Jace I will still help you with that. Why'd you think I'll back out or something?" without waiting for his reply, she then turn to her friends. "Sorry guys I really have to go now. Bye!"
She went inside her car and drove off refusing to look back because she's afraid if she do her tears will gonna betray her. And that's something she can't afford to risk. How stupid of her to think of liking the "Jace Keller"! He's like "everything"!
Just when she was at the library she tried looking at his i*******m account. And got shock at how much followers he has like millions and mostly are girls. How can she consider herself to attract his attention. She is just a plain and boring nerd. Nothing more.
She drove directly to her house and go straight to her room. Good thing her parents are still not home or else they will see her state and its not a very good thing.
She slammed her body on the bed for awhile then after a few moments she get up and change into a mickey mouse pajama. She wash her face and brush her teeth. She can't think of anything to do. She's done with her homework and also the journal papers were already forwarded to the principal. Maybe she'll just sleep yes maybe by then she will forget about him and the pain he caused her.
Just when she thought that maybe, just maybe, Jace likes her too, just like yesterday when he brought her home after they had dinner in the restaurant and he hold her hand in the car. Well, Arianne thought he might like her but as to what she saw in the parking lot, maybe it didn't mean anything to him.
After awhile of tossing and turning in bed, her phone beeps. She took her phone inside her bag and read the text.
"hey are you at home? You okay?" Kristinn said in text
"nope! I don't know why but I'm feeling sad! Are you still with them?"
"me and Lexi just stay there for half an hour maybe, then we told them that we need to go cause my mom called up and said there's an emergency and I don't want to go home alone cause I'm scared of what's the emergency all about."
"what is your emergency then? Are you okay?"
"cut it out Yanna there's no emergency. I just ask my mom quietly to call me that's it. And the reason why we decided to come is that we want to see what Jace and Amber are up to."
"Omg why did you do that?"
"because we care for you?!!"
"Ohh that's sweeeeet! thanks guys!"
"you know what happen after you go? Jace told Amber to go away hahaha!"
"but why did he do that?"
"to make you jealous? are you now?"
"maybe! I'm not sure. I felt sad when I saw them."
"Ohh Yanna you really like him, don't you?!!!!"
"I don't know K I don't know!"
After exchanging some more text messages for quite awhile they said their goodbyes. Arianne spent few more minutes thinking about Jace real motive before she fell into a deep sleep.
"Arianneeee get up!!! You're going to be late!!!" her mom screaming made Arianne get up in a haste. She reached for her phone in the nightstand and was shocked at the time. Its already 6:30.Normally she gets up around 6. She quickly run in the shower and took a quick bath. After drying herself she brushed teeth and put on her undergarments. She put baby powder and lip balm cause she don't have much time for makeup today just like everyday. Then quickly blow dried her hair and brush it and just let it fall. Then she open her closet and pick a denim short skirt and a white tank top. She put a jacket inside her bag just in case it gets colder. Then took her white vans. She run downstairs and just grab a cereal bar. She just wave and gave her parents flying kiss and run to her car. As she enter the school gate, both Alexis and Kristinn waving at her. She then parked her car and went to them.
It took half an hour to reach Jace' house. They then enter a huge steel gate then parked in front of a beautiful and huge sky blue colored house. Not really house, but a huge mansion! Jace went down and Arianne followed. They were greeted by the butler in the front door. "good afternoon sir!" Jace just nodded to him. "Mr. Watkins, can you bring some snacks into my room I have a guest!" he then said. Arianne's eyes were about to fall in their socket because of the amazement she thought about the luxury in this mansion. Kristinn's mansion is also huge but this as Arianne's thoughts go further, is tremendously huge! Jace grab her hand and lead her to the stairs. He opens a door to what seems to be his room. Arianne thinks her house is nothing compare to this room alone. "just make yourself comfortable I'll just go freshen up. The food is coming." He winked then went thr
It was a fine Friday morning. Arianne woke up with the sound of her alarm clock. She went into the bathroom to do her morning rituals and dressed up. Then she went downstairs and have some breakfast. She bid her parents goodbye, they will be going out of town tonight and will comeback on Sunday evening. News flash: Arianne’s dad surprisingly agreed when she asks them if she could go with her friends to watch a football match outside their school and that there’s a follow-up party on Friday next week. Her dad only warned her to call him if anything unusual happens. Finally she went to school happily. But what made her extra happy is because today she and her friends are doing a sleepover in her house. “good morning beautiful!” oh she didn’t see that coming. Its Owen! “morning Owen!” Arianne replied. “ahmm Arianne I’m just wondering
After their last class, Alexis and Kristinn hopped inside Arianne's car. They are going to Kristinn's house so that they can help her prepare for the party tonight. She's going to attend it with her parents. When they arrived, there are some boxes of pizza awaits for them. Courtesy of Kristinn's mom who exactly knows what time they are arriving. The three girls made themselves busy after their meal, making Kristinn's hair and makeup. They even change her nail polish with the same color as her dress, navy blue. After some time, they presented Kristinn to her parents who gladly appreciated what Arianne and Alexis did to her. Kristinn absolutely look amazing! When Kristinn and her parents' time to leavefor the party, Arianne and Alexis also decided to go to the latter's house for their monthly sleepover. Before leaving, Kristinn's mom Jodie assure them both th
Arianne woke up to the feel of an arm snaking around her waist. When she looks to the owner of it she got shocked.Jace and her slept together in her room!She don’t remember coming to her room last night. She thought she fell asleep after the third movie they watched.She tried to get up to check her friends but Jace hold on to her gets tighten.“what now? Still too early! Where are you going?” Jace with furrowed brows said in a hoarse but sexy, voice.“I’m going to the bathroom, can I?” Arianne said in a sarcastic tone.He reluctantly let go of her.She went to the closet and take a pair of shorts and atee with the pic of Disney princess on it.She then went to her bathroom and take a quick shower, brush her teeth andcomb her hair after. She didn't bother to dry her hair at all
After a cheesy-sweet breakfast, without talking, Arianne and Jace are on the kitchen cleaning everything their friends used in preparing breakfast. When they’re done they headed to the living roomwhere the rest of the guys are already watching a rerun of vampire diaries. Arianne then decided to go upstairs and call her parents. Her mom answered and asked how’s everything going on. She told her everything is okay and that Lexi and K are downstairs watching tv. Of course she don’t tell her that there are also three boys who joined their sleepover or more of crash over. Almost after the call, Kristinn and Alexis came barging through both grinning from ear to ear. “what is happening to you and Jace huh?” Alexis ask teasing her. “nothing! Why?” she said clueless to what her friends insinuating. “my goodness! He’s so into
Arianne is back at the kitchen again and this time, to prepare dinner. And because the boys never take their leave yet, she decided to cook something more, especially for Jace. She’s planning to make baked lasagna and roasted chicken. When Jace found out what she’s cooking, he spent his time in the kitchen again with Arianne. He entertained her through his travel stories. He told her about his parents and their love for travelling. They would always bring Jace to almost every trip they went but as soon as the call from business is taking much of their time, his parents both stop their travels not unless it is work related. But that didn’t stop Jace from touring the world. He’s been to many countries. And he’s favorite place to visit is Italy. He also told Arianne that he wants to take Journalism in college so that it is still possible for him to tra
Arianne felt a body in her bed when she was about to lay down. She quickly get up and turn on the night lamp while holding on to her chest. “Jace maybe you may never see me again! I think I’m going to have a heart attack!” she spat at him. “at least its not because of a broken heart!” he said grinning. “ what are you doing here in my room?” Arianne trying to ignore his playful act. “your bed is more comfortable I think than the couch then I don’t want to be third wheeling with my friends and I like your body next to mine.” He said smirking. “my god Jace your way of thinking is disgusting!” she said scrunching her nose. “but why? don’t you like the warmth feeling between our bodies. Its not about sex Arianne if that is what you’re thinking.” he said in a serious tone. She felt strange when he said her name completely. What’s going on in him? Arianne
