Author's POV
Chase was staring at the ceiling of his bedroom when alarm goes off in his phone telling him it’s morning.He couldn’t sleep a wink the whole night, again. It’s starting to get so common now that it doesn’t even bother him anymore.His insomnia is getting worse with every passing day.But surprisingly the reason why he was not able to sleep last night or almost for last three nights is not his regular nightmares, to which he has now gotten accustomed.This time the reason is certain someone whose ocean blue eyes have somehow managed to held his heart, his mind and his body captive.No matter what he tries to do, he is not able to take her out of his mind. Even after telling himself that him staying away from her is best for both of them, her as well as him.He tried drowning himself in his work, which actually is the most important thing in his life.He tried numbing his senses by drinking, if it could help him in keeping the thoughts of Cara away from his mind.He even tried banging few nameless chicks to distract his mind and most importantly his body which is craving her and only her touch.He turned his face to his side and saw a blonde laying on his bed beside him, wearing only her underwear.He closed his eyes while rubbing his forehead when last night’s scene came rushing back to his mind.After drinking, he doesn’t even know how many glasses of beer and whiskey with John and George, he entered into his room and saw this blonde sitting on his bed, just in under garments.To seduce him and It worked too.But just before things could get heated, those blue orbs flashed in front of his eyes and he froze. He just couldn’t continue after that even after all the tricks this blonde used to turn him on, but nothing worked.He told the girl to go away as he lied down on his bed closing his eyes in futile attempt to sleep, but those innocent ocean blue orbs kept bothering him.It’s as if she is clutching him tightly with her innocence.He doesn’t even remember when this blonde again came into his bedroom and slept beside him. Or did she never leave? he really doesn’t know.He pushed himself off of the bed still rubbing his forehead to soothe the constant headache he has due to lack of sleep.He made his way into the bathroom to freshen up for the day while thinking of the ways to spend the day without going to college.He has never been a person who likes attending every classes so most of the times he just doesn’t do them.About attendance requirements and anything else, he really doesn’t care. And anyways who is going to go against the monster himself and most importantly the mayor’s son.He has been passing all of the subjects with decent scores until now so that he doesn't have to repeat the same year and that is what matters to him.Another reason why he doesn’t want to go to college is Cara. He just wants to avoid her for as long as he can because he has a feeling that something really troubling is going to happen if he hangs around her.He came out after taking a shower when he saw John his best friend sitting on his bed. The blonde is not in the room anymore. He knew John must have sent her away because he knows Chase doesn’t like anyone sleeping in his bed.Chase started dressing in his usual outfit. Dark ripped jeans, white figure fitting t-shirt which he knows leaves girls drooling over his hot body, and black leather jacket.At the same time John started talking with him about some random stuff and joking around, being his usual self which according to Chase is really annoying.Once he was done dressing John dropped the fun and his features turned to serious one in a matter of seconds as he said, “We need to go to college and take care of that bastard”.Chase’s jaw clenched as he said, “We have everything ready, right?” to which John nodded while balling his palms into fists.“Let’s go and put some sense into his f**ked up head then” Chase said and both of them made their way out of the room and found George who was waiting in living room.With a final nod all three of them walked out of the car to complete their unfinished work..................................................................“Not you Cara, you stay here” his voice boomed in the room and Cara’s steps halted.She gulped visibly as she turned halfway to stare into Sapphire’s scared eyes before turning around completely to come face to face with him.‘Now don’t you want to drown in depths of those orbs?’ her inner self mocked reminding her about the thoughts she was having about him.She was a little scared and it was a normal reaction for anyone who stands like this in the spotlight of his burning gaze.But for some reason she is not as much scared as she was three days ago. Maybe it was that soft look in his eyes for her a minute ago or something else, but she just had a feeling he won’t hurt her.“You go Sapphire” he said still keeping his gaze fixed on her face and now it caused her heartbeat to rise a little more.‘Is he going to beat me up like the Max guy?’‘What are you thinking Cara? Weren’t you the one who was sure a minute ago that he won’t hurt you?’ her subconscious mind reminded.Her emotions were all over the place at the moment.Sapphire left but not before squeezing her hand lightly and giving her an apologetic look.Cara stood there glued to her place, eyes still locked with his. She doesn’t know from where she got this courage to keep eyes locked with him and why staring into those smokey gray eyes made her feel less scared.He started walking towards her once they were left alone, stopping a step away in front of her.This was the first time that she took in each and every feature of him. The first thought that came to her mind was that he was hot and very.. gorgeous, if you can describe him like that.He was almost 6’4 tall, way too tall in front of her 5’6 body. He had a very masculine body which was trying to bulge out of the tight fitted t-shirt that he was wearing. He is not wearing his leather jacket right now which let her have a look on his bare forearms.She doesn’t know why but she thought he would be covered in blue and black ink everywhere but by the looks of him, it feels like he does not have a tattoo.He has a dark black hair and chiseled jawline which could even pass as best jawline of the country along with defined cheekbones.His smokey gray eyes were the most beautiful eyes she has ever seen in her life, which actually remind her of someone.He was hands down definition of sexy.“Didn’t I tell you not to come in front of my eyes? Did you forget my warning already?” he asked in cold tone bringing her out of her fantasy world.She didn’t say anything and kept staring into his eyes trying to see through the depths of those orbs.Getting impatient he took a step closer and said with gritted teeth, “What did I tell you how I feel about repeating myself?”She tried taking a step away as there was practically no space between them but his hand reached to wrap around her waist and pulled her back to where she was standing before. Her body again tingled because of his touch.He was starting to get angry now as he repeated “What did I tell you about repeating….” He was cut off when she replied softly still staring into his eyes, “You don’t like repeating yourself”.“Good, now answer my first question, did you forget about my warning?” he asked as the anger vanished from his tone but it was still cold.“I didn’t forget about it. I remember” she replied as she looked away, his intense gaze was doing something to her. But he didn’t like it when she broke the eye contact, and it's effect was clear in his tone.“Then you must remember that I told you to stay the f**k away from me” he growled at her face which even surprised him and she flinched a bit at his tone.“I know…you told me to stay away but…I didn’t know you were here” she replied trying to keep her voice even as she again locked her eyes with him, it made him a little relaxed.He pulled her closer causing a small gasp to escape her lips when her chest collided with his and he asked, “So you are saying that it’s my fault that we met again, huh?”“No, no, that’s not what I meant. It isn’t anyone’s fault” she replied immediately.She is so innocent, he thought.“But someone needs to be held responsible so that we can decide on the punishment” he said and even he knew he wasn’t making any sense. But he just wanted to talk to her for a bit more.She involuntarily bit her lips between her teeth showing she is nervous. His eyes followed the movement and he felt his d**k twitch in his pants.F**k.“Why is punishment needed when no one is at fault” she simply said with a small frown on her face and he found it adorable.“Are you trying to lecture me?” he asked with a fake scowl on his face, somehow enjoying the different emotions that were flashing in her eyes and on her face, every other second.“No! I wasn’t lecturing you” she said quickly in attempt to clear the misunderstanding and he just kept observing her reactions, enjoying every second of it.He missed her touch, her intoxicating fragrance, her breath fanning his lips and everything about her.Only he knows how he controlled himself for last three days from coming in front of her, to avoid scaring her.But as he can notice she is not that scared of him right now. Instead her cheeks are covered in slight tint of pink.‘Is she blushing? Is my closeness affecting her like hers is doing to me?’ he thought and a faint smile appeared on his lips surprisingly liking this colour on her face.He lifted his free hand, desperately wanting to touch her pink cheeks but his hand halted just few inches away from her face when he remembered how she flinched away from his touch, the last time he tried to do the same thing.But when she didn’t show any discomfort, he reached and cupped her face with one hand, softly caressing her cheek with his thumb. The touch was so soft that it shocked his own self because he never thought he could ever be this soft towards anyone.Her blush deepened and she lowered her eyes but this time it didn’t anger him, instead her shy eyes caused his heart to flutter in his chest.“You are blushing” he whispered.“No, I am not” she said turning her face away from him to hide her blush. But he put a little pressure around her neck so that she is staring right into his eyes. He just kept staring at her face.The bell ringed indicating there are only five minutes left before the class starts and both of them came out of the trance that they were in. But he still didn’t let her go, enjoying the feeling of her soft body against his hard one.She realized that she is standing way too close to him for her own liking.“I am getting late for the class” she whispered softly not wanting to make him angry.He didn’t say anything and just kept staring into her eyes and now he saw the fear that was starting to take over her features.After few seconds he let her go, instantly missing the touch, he took few steps away from her. As soon as he let go, she released a breath that even she didn’t know she was holding.She turned around to leave and he just kept staring at her back with a ghost of a smile playing on his lips.She was at the end of the room when he decided to turn around and leave but his eyes widened and he felt a flip in his stomach when she turned around to stare back at him with a small smile dancing on her lips, before disappearing from his sight.He wondered if it really happened or he just imagined it but the blush on her face and the pounding in his heart told him it was real.And he could swear that it was the most beautiful sight one could ever witness. It was first time that he felt this happy in so many years and reason was simple.She glanced back at him and that to with a smile on her lips.He came out of his daze when John and George walked up to him. Both of them had mischievous smirk on their faces and Chase knew that he is screwed.They are not going to leave him alone now..................................................................Cara made her way to the class and she was glad that she was not late. She took her seat beside Sapphire and she asked, “Are you okay? Did he hurt you?”The concern was evident on her features and it reminded Cara that just few minutes ago she was alone with the infamous bully Chase Adams, which she kind of forgot when she was in his arms.“I am okay and he didn’t hurt me” she replied quickly so that Sapphire won’t worry for her. She was about to ask something to Cara when teacher entered into the classroom.Cara didn’t pay any attention in the class as her mind went back to her interaction with Chase and how she behaved so weirdly around him.‘Shouldn’t you be scared around him? Didn’t you see him almost killing a student in the locker room right in front of your eyes. Yet instead of running away from him like you always do, you were enjoying his touch’ she asked herself.She doesn’t know why she acted in such a way when she was with him. It was for the first time that she felt such kind of unfamiliar emotions. It was as if she was not in control of her own senses.She even blushed.Not only hers but even his behaviour towards her was as weird.‘Does he have feelings for me?’ She thought but instantly shook her head to remove the idea from her mind.‘He is a bully Cara. You might be his next target' she told herself and even the idea of being the target of most vicious bully is dangerous.‘Why was he being that way towards me earlier? Does he have ulterior motive? Does he want to hurt me because I offended him three days ago or want to get back at me because I stood against him and his friends to save Aria?’ there were so many questions in her mind which were making her go insane.She decided to just meet him as soon as possible and clear the misunderstanding. She want to talk and apologize to him if she offended him in any kind of way.Because she doesn’t want to hurt anyone’s feeling, not even by mistake. She doesn’t want to get on anyone’s bad side, and definitely not on The Infamous Chase Adams’.The class was over and it’s lunch time. Cara decided to make her way to library instead of going to cafeteria in order to avoid running into Law. She put her books in her bag and started making her way out of the class with Sapphire who tried convincing Cara to just forget about Law and have lunch with her but she didn’t press much, as she knows how troubling Law is being towards Cara. As soon as Cara came out of class, she bumped into something or rather someone. She lost her balance but two strong arms held her in her place. Her eyes met with the person and she quickly detached herself from him. “Hey sweetheart” Law said. “Oh, hi Law” Cara replied slowly. “What are you doing here?” Sapphire asked irritated. She knows that Law is again going to pester Cara. She wants to help her friend but she is well aware that this guy Law is really stubborn, who doesn’t listen to anyone except his father. “I missed my sweetheart. She didn’t come to cafeteria yesterday so today I came to esc
Chase was standing there stunned, staring at Cara’s retreating back. He couldn’t bring himself to take another step further to go after her. She looked scared. Damn! She looked terrified. And the reason behind the fear in those eyes of hers was noone else but him, Again. His heart felt a pang of hurt almost numbing his every other senses. What is this pain? He came out of his shock when he heard Sapphire calling her name and started running after her. He also wanted to go after her to see if she is okay, to ask if she is scared because of him. To tell her not to be scared of him. But her scared face came in front of his eyes and he could not move forward. He felt John putting his hand on his shoulder.He turned around to look at Law who seemed deep in thoughts as if he was confused about something. But Chase didn’t wait to think what it could be and crouched down in front of him, grabbing him by his collar. Law came out of his daze and locked eyes with Chase. His evil smirk maki
“Chase” The word left her mouth and his lips curled up into a tiny smile which she couldn’t notice because of shock. She didn’t expect the one standing outside of her room to be him. And specifically not at this hour of time. “If you don’t want to invite any bug in that mouth of yours, I suggest you to close it” Chase said in a teasing tone and Cara quickly shut her mouth putting her hand on her lips. He smirked at her reaction and entered into her room and it was when she came out of her shock. She turned around to find him looking around in her dorm room. “What are you doing here?” she whisper yelled while walking towards him after closing the door and standing two steps away from him. He turned around to look at her with a raised brow. And she realized that she is talking with the infamous bully Chase, so she should mind her tone. “I mean it is a girls dorm. Boys are not allowed in here” she said softly taking one more step away from him. He was observing each and every mo
Author’s POV Cara entered into the classroom and took a deep breath of relief when she saw that no one is here yet. The classroom is empty so now she and Sapphire, both of them can talk in silence. She settled down on her seat, waiting for Sapphire to come. Sapphire called her as soon as she woke up. And the reason why she called so early in the morning was a text message that Cara sent her around midnight, telling her about surprise visit of the great Chase Adams himself. Sapphire had put her phone on silent mode before sleeping that is why she did not get the message at night. But as soon as she saw her phone in the morning she called Cara immediately, asking if she was okay. Both of them spoke for a while and Cara said that she will share the details about her conversation with Chase, in the college.They decided to come to college a little earlier so that not many people would be present in the class. Cara rested her head on her desk closing her eyes in the process. She cou
Author’s POV “She can not date you Law because she is my girlfriend” Chase said from behind Cara. All the heads whipped in the direction of the door of the classroom where Chase was standing with George and John. But Cara was still frozen to her place upon hearing his voice. Sapphire glanced back at Chase who has now started walking in their direction then she looked at her friend, who didn’t even move to look back. Chase came and stood beside Cara. He glanced at her face for a moment to find her beyond shocked because of his words, as he expected. Then his eyes moved to Law who was looking at his face with a weird kind of expression, which he didn’t expect at all. After few seconds Law composed his look and asked, “What did you say?” “Just what you heard.” Chase replied. Law chuckled at his words, “And you want me to believe that? Look at her face, she doesn’t even know what’s going on”. “She knows exactly what I mean” Chase said and turned his head around to look at Cara wh
Author's POV“Shut up before I lose my control” he spat through gritted teeth. His ragged breath was fanning her face, making her heart to pound in her chest. “Stop talking, I don’t want to hear that s**t from your mouth” he growled but Cara didn’t even flinch at his tone this time. She was shocked and at the same time confused. She was not able to understand the reason behind his anger, whenever she talks about what Law did and might do to her. “Take you to his bed? F**k yu…Damn!” He paused not being able to repeat her words without losing his temper. “I will kill that bastard Law or anyone else if they even tried coming close to you after today. You heard me? I will kill that person” he said in dangerously low tone and Cara could see the madness in his eyes. “You asked me yesterday why I was so angry when that bastard Law kissed you, right?” “It’s because I can’t see anyone else around you, but that f**ker dared to touch you” he grated and this time a shiver went down her spin
Author’s POV “What happened Chase? What did you say to her?” John asked as soon as Cara and Sapphire left the classroom. “I asked her to be my girlfriend” Chase replied while sitting on one of the chairs in class. “That we already saw. You changed your plan and asked her to pretend to be your girlfriend instead, right?” John asked. Chase closed his eyes and rubbed his aching temple with his fingers while saying, “No.. I asked her to be my real girlfriend. I asked her to date me for real”. And it shocked both John and George. “What? What… did you do?” it was George this time. “I asked her if she would like to be my girlfriend for real” Chase replied now opening his eyes. “What did she say?” asked John. “She needs time to think about it” Chase replied. “You didn’t threaten her right?” George asked in unsure tone. Chase glared at his friend with look on his face which says, ‘Are you serious?’ “Sorry, I know you would never do that. But I just couldn’t stop myself from asking”
Author's POVCara was standing in front of the mirror, looking at herself for the hundredth time now. Just joking. But even she doesn’t know how many times she has checked herself out in this dressing table’s mirror in her dorm room. Yes you guessed it right, she is getting ready for her date with Chase. She is wearing a simple white knee length dress. It has a v neck line and sleeves are reaching up to her wrist. They are fitted perfectly to her delicate arms. It’s very simple dress but she is liking her look in this dress. She doesn’t have any expensive or fashionable clothes for special occasions. She didn’t want to wear dress and was planning on wearing her regular jeans and top for this date. But Sapphire convinced her in wearing this white dress which they found hiding in the back of her dresser. Cara had purchased this dress before coming to this town. Sapphire said it would go really well with her simple but beautiful personality. ‘And it will definitely leave Chase wit
