“ We need the deets girl, how did it go?" Both Raine and Mila said at the same time.
“Chill, calm your tits girls." Willow smiled as they walked towards the stall on the beach to get food to eat. They had gone out on a girls day with Aaliyah and her friends as well. Just to blow off steam.
“Naah, we're too eager to calm down. Now spill!"Mila ordered.
“ Can we get some food first, woman?" Willow rolled her eyebrows.
“ Fine, but just cause we're star----
Mila stood as her eyes grew wide as saucers. She saw the guy who forced herself on her pass-by.
When did he become a free man?
How come she never heard of his release?
Raine and Willow followed her gaze and also saw him. Raine had the same expression Mila had. Willow was just angry. He did the craziest thing by smirking at them as he walked off.
“ Did he just?!" Willow burst out. She almost stormed over to him but Mila and Raine held her back.
“Calm down, Willow." Mila softly said.
“How can I? How can I do that when he raped you?" Willow said?
“He what!? He did the same to you too?" Raine clasped her hand over her mouth when she realised what she said.
“ Raine, what was that?" Willow asked as they walked to their booth.
“ Hmmmm, he - he raped me." she managed to say.
“ This sounds surreal, he raped you, and he also raped Mila. Wait, in this town?" Willow inquired.
“ N-no, that was before I moved here. That was in New Orleans," she said, shaking.
Willow hugged her for her to feel safe. To know she'd got her.
“ It's fine, you don't have to talk about it now. Whenever you're ready." Mila chipped in.
“ Okay, but what I don't understand was how he got out and was able to move here." Raine voiced out.
“ The question is who let him outta jail?" Mila asked.
“ This is strange, maybe he's a twin or triplets?" Willow shrugged.
“ Um?" Raine said.
“ Maybe, they're triplets and he's had both his brother's serve for him while he freely roamed." Willow finished.
“ No, he's not." both Raine and Mila added.
“ How do you know?" Willow replied with their tone.
" His family records," Raine added.
“Maybe we could go to the station and check if he's really the one," Willow suggested.
" No need, he's an influential person, I mean his parents are influential and can bribe their way through anything," Mila stated.
" Are you girls hungry?" Vanilla asked.
" Yes, puhlease." Kiera dramatically added.
“ Let's get some food to eat then, ooh I spotted an eatery over there." Vanilla pointed as they gathered their things and headed there.
“ So you guys are dating now?" Niel asked his brother.
“ We went on a date alright, but I haven't officially asked her to be my girl," Neo said.
“ You like her that much, why are you delaying asking her out? Better do so before someone else does." he sipped his can of soda.
" Hey, go get your own," Neo smacked the back of his brother's head as he burst into laughter.
" Neo, you gotta ask her before we leave for school in a couple of weeks," he smirked.
" I will, and by the way, I saw how you were looking at their new friend...um what's her name again?" he snapped his fingers trying to remember.
" Raine?" Neil answered.
“ Yeah, her. You like her?" his brother asked.
" I think I'm beginning to," he confessed.
Raine sat in the car trying to get Ace's smirk out of her mind.How the hell did he get out of prison in New Orleans?
Did his mom bribe the judge?
I remember she was sleeping with him...
That could be it?!
And he's here in California
Doing the same thing?
She almost got sick in the car remembering how that psycho took months to get to know her and be her friend. Then one night it happened, no he wasn't drunk or on drugs. He was just unleashing his true self and inner beast.
Somehow, he managed to convince his teacher to get them to be partners on a project and insisted they meet at his home for the work. It was all fun until the night he ripped her off her pride. She saw that same smirk she saw today on his face, he looked like a different person altogether.
" Hey, can I stay at any of yours today?" she burst out.
“ Um, I and Aaliyah have got sister's night planned out tonight...sorry," Willow added.
” You can come over to my end, I'd love the company." Mila said, dropping Vanilla off at her house. She saw Hayes glaring at her as she showed him her f*ck you finger driving off.
" See you girls, tomorrow." Aaliyah and Willow bid them goodbye as they got off.
“ Would you like to pick some clothes from home?" she asked her friend who was lost in thought.
“ Raine?" she called.
" Um... what did you say?" she asked, panicking.
Luckily enough, they were in front of Mila's house so she stopped and went to the back where her friend sat and hugged her.
“ Shhh, you'd be fine. I haven't been myself either since I saw him too." Mila said.
“ How did he get out?" she voiced her fears.
" I don't know, but he ain't gonna harm you okay, we are stronger together and we've got people who love us." she consoled.
“ You girls alright?" Niel asked, startling them.
“ Shit Niel! You scared us." Mila put her hand on her chest.
“ Well, are you okay?" he asked.
" No, and can you help me, help her inside?" she asked.
“ Okay." he opened the door and carried a sobbing Raine bridal style into the house.
“ You gonna be alright, alright?" he said to her. She caught a whiff of his cologne and it smelt really good. She couldn't help but lean closer to his chest to get a better smell of his cologne.
" Do I smell that good?" he asked Raine, setting her on Mila's bed.
“ Yeah, you do." she blushed as Mila walked in smiling at them.
“ Stop flirting with my friend." Mila pouted.
" No, she's pretty." Niel blurted out. When he realised what he had done, he hurried out of the room.
“ He likes you," Mila added, setting a tub of vanilla ice cream in front of her friend.
" No please don't! Somebody help me! Ace, Ace, Ace please don't do this please!" she begged.
"Come on, it would be painless, and fun." he let out a crazy laugh.
"No, no...no, please!" she screamed as he yanked her legs open.
"Shut up bitch!" he covered her mouth, preventing her from screaming.
“NO!" both Raine and Mila yelled at the same time. They were both having the same nightmare. The very one they had tried to forget.
“ Are you girls okay?" Niel asked as Neo followed behind him turning the lights on.
“ No, no I'm not. Mila managed to say. Raine sat on the floor hugging her knees and sobbing.
“ The nightmare?" Neo asked as he hugged his sister and Niel hugged Raine.
“ Yeah, he did the same thing to her." she managed to let out, as Niel hugged Raine tighter.
“ It's going to be fine. He won't hurt you now. He's in jail." Niel added.
“ No, he isn't, we saw him at the beach yesterday, he's out. What if he's coming for us?" Raine asked.
“ Look at me.". Niel said as she panicked the more.
“ Look at me, Raine!" he said louder as she did.
“ No one is coming for you girls. We are here for you." Niel said as she rested her head on his shoulder. He rocked her back and forth until she fell asleep. Mila had also fallen asleep on Neo's lap.
Earth to Raine," Khalil said, startling her.“Yeah?" she said, pushing her food around on her plate. Ever since she saw Asher at the beach she had been edgy and uncomfortable.“You alright?" Jake asked as she nodded. She's been living ever since that day. She just goes home to pick up clothes and come back to hers. Not that Mila disliked the idea, but she was worried about her friend.“What if he comes back?" she found herself asking."Then he's got all of us to deal with. We're much stronger now. We've got each other back now. He can't harm you, Raine." Willow squeezed her hand.“Seriously Hayes?" he stood there smirking. He had dumped a cup of coffee all over Mila's shorts.“The colour looks good on you though," he burst out into laughter."Low move man, low move," Khalil said to him"What you gonna do about it gay boy? Huh?" he asked."Hayes Miller, my office now!" the principal bellowed,
Niel and Neo had left for school a week ago and Willow and Raine were a little grumpy. Willow had missed her boyfriend, Raine had missed Niel. Those two had a strong connection going on but hadn't worked on it, knowing very well they liked each other. Niel and Neo we're of the same height, 6'8. Olive skinned, handsome but had different eye colours. Neo had dark brown eyes while Niel had deep grey eyes. Niel was a little heavier than his twin and had dimples. Neo had pink cute lips rather than dimples.The tension between those two was so thick it could be sawed into half. Mila, Aaliyah, Vanilla and Kiera had planned a little surprise for those two to make them feel better.With the help of Aaliyah and her friends, they were able to clear out her lair and turn it into a home cinema. They had selected a couple of movies such as; To all the boys I've loved; Always and Forever, The prom, Raja and the lost dragon, and the wish dragon, and Luna.Naya helped prepare snacks for the movie nigh
" Kassy, just in time f---, what the hell is he doing here?" Mila fumed. "You think I like being here huh?" Hayes asked matching her tonation. "Sorry I didn't inform you, Mila, he's my student...lemme just say I tutor him and I thought it wise for him to be here for our session today so I don't have to teach him after this one," Kassy explained. "I am agreeing on this just for you Kassy, just for you. Come on, in" she ushered them into the study room. There were snacks and bottles of water on the table as they entered. "Please help yourself to anything, I'd be back in a jiffy." she bolted up the stairs to her room and the group texted her friends. Mila: Hayes Miller is at my house!
"Could you guys stop acting as if you care? What's the matter, why did you video call us all?" Mila cut to the chase. " Honey, that's no way to talk to your mom," Naya added. " That's fine, Naya." her dad said as she rolled her eyes at them. " Mom, dad cut to the chase, I've got class in a bit," Neo added. "Fine, we've got a new addition to the family... and she would be staying with Naya and Mila." their mom told. "You had another kid and you didn't bother telling us?" Both Neil and Mila said. " How old is she?" Naya sighed. " 3 years old." Mr Bennett rubbed his head. " So, you're
Who's at the door this early?" Mila rubbed her eyes and unlocked her bedroom door as she headed downstairs to check who was at the door that early. "I'm coming, jeez. Calm your ti--- "Raine?" she wondered what she was doing at her house early on a Saturday morning. She noticed bruises on her body and her arm held up in a cast. " Who did this to you?" Mila asked letting her friend in. " My mom and dad." she croaked. " What? Why?" she tried not to wake Naya and Tara up as they climbed up to her room. " Because they enjoy doing it. They just like to abuse me just for the fun of it," she told her friend. " You don't believe me right
"Who's Mila walking with?" Jake asked his boyfriend seated at their regular table. " Babe, let's wait until they get here," he answered, not looking up from his phone. " How come you're more interesting and less annoying than that jerk of your brother? No offence though?" she couldn't help but ask. She met him stranded in the hallway while rushing to class. Apparently, he was a new student on transfer from another school and the brother to her arch-nemesis, Hayes. At first, she was reluctant to help him when he mentioned his name, but on second thought, she decided to. She went with him to the administration for his schedule. It turned out that he had the same schedule as hers so she walked to class with him talking abou
Mila and Rémy's friendship had grown over the weeks. He sat with her and her friends every day during lunch. Though his brother wasn't thrilled with his actions, he could care less. And besides, when did Hayes start caring for anyone other than himself. Mila and her friends had been to some of Rémy's races though it was illegal but they enjoyed it. Jake and Khalil were fans of car races and were beyond thrilled each time they went to the tracks to watch him. “ Umm, the seat's taken,” Mila said to Hayes not looking up from her phone. “ I don't see anyone here, Bennett,” he smirked. “ He's right in front of you Hayes,” he looked up to see his brother smirking.
Mila, Willow, Raine, Jake, and Khalil were watching the race from the sidelines. They were there to support Rémy as he competed against his toughest opponent. When he was racing, he was a different person than the friendly Rémy they all knew, colder and perhaps a touch more vicious. Nonetheless, they were all aware of his altered demeanour. "He's in a comfortable lead right now," Jake jolted Mila out of her self-induced stupor, bringing her focus to the race. Rémy's car was a silver 2021 Chevrolet Corvette, whereas opponents was a blue 2021 Porsche Boxster. During Rémy's final sprint, the crowd erupted in cheers. It wasn't long before Terry's opponent caught up to him as he crossed the finish line with his trademark sneer. Upon seeing his fans approaching to greet him, he exited his vehicle to meet them.
