Affection is an astonishing thing

Amy...." A low whisper dragged me out of my sleep. I opened my eyes slowly, my sight was blurred and a figure was standing near me but my sight was still blurred. "Amy.." again that voice yelled. "Wake up wake up", then someone poured a whole bucket of freezing water on me. "Holy freaking bubblegums! What's the matter with you." I yelled.
"Language! Watch your language young lady. Now wake up." Mom yelled.
And there she stood Samantha Parker, my mom, in not so good mood. "Amanda Parker!! You've 5 minutes to get ready, now hurry up. And don't get late I won't allow you to be late for school."
"But.." I whined.
"Don't but with my lady."
I quickly ran towards the washroom for a shower.
"You don't have much time, eat your breakfast in school." Then she leaves. Let me tell you one thing, my mother is very strict about timing. I can understand it. She's a very busy woman as she's a lawyer, that's why my childhood is still in a blur as she was very busy back then. She works very hard for us so that we can live a peaceful life. My father's memories are still a blur for me. I can't even remember his face but it's good because I don't want to remember that bloody heartless man who cheated on my mother. Whenever I see my mother I feel so proud of her. The way she managed herself and me, she's the type of person who always wants everything in time and follows all rules so here I am trying to get ready on time.
I moved to my closet. Today I'm not in a good mood so I decided to wear simple yet comfy clothes. I wore baggy jeans and a plaid shirt. My hairs were in a messy bun. The ride to school was also not good. Whenever I see something weird my mind takes me back to yesterday.
I was already out of the bus and heading to the school entrance. There is so much crowd chattering around. I got straight to the locker to get my books when my phone started ringing. Taking it out of my pocket, I see it's an unknown number. I was about to answer the call but I bumped into something and everything became blurred. My eyes were closed and I was ready to fall when someone grabbed me by my waist and I crushed it into someone's hard chest. A strong cologne hits my nostrils.
"You're so clumsy, nerd." He whispered looking straight into my eyes. His brown orbs meet my blue ones and I can't explain anything at that time. He was so close to me that my heart started beating fast, it was as if a volcano arise in me. He's just smirking and I know why. He's Cole, the player and for him, it is very common to get to close anyone but for me, it's not. I was just about to get up but he winked as if he knows how I'm feeling and how my heart is beating so fast.
Enough is enough Amanda, why are you getting affected by this jerk. I told myself and shoved him off.
"Oh, miss nerd is getting affected by a hot boy." He chuckled.
"No, I am not." I lied.
"Yes, you're."
"What do you think of yourself? Tom Cruise? Do you think that every girl will get flattered with your hotness?" I demanded and regretted it because I indirectly admitted that he was hot.
"You admitted that I'm hot." He showed me his full-fledged smile.
"Oh shut up and listen you're just an idiot," I yelled.
''You listen, girl, oh sorry you don't t look like a girl," he said eyeing me from head to toe.
"What do you mean?" I asked.
"Do you think that I was interested in you? You should look at yourself you don't even look like a girl. You should go and study.'' He replied with a chuckle.
Anger boiled in me. "You don't know how to talk to a girl, do you?" I yelled.
"Who says you're a girl?" He demanded.
This time I couldn't control myself and kicked him in his leg. He groaned in pain but before he could say anything I ran away saving my life towards the class but I heard him.
"Parker you're dead," he yelled.
For the rest of the day, I decided one thing for the very first time I'll skip all the classes which Cole and I share. I don't want to face him right now. I know that I've done something stupid but what can I do he was saying all these harsh things to me but my mind was yelling why should I care if he says those things to me. He's a jerk, what would you expect him to say.
"Oh stop just stop." I groaned in frustration.
"Amy!! What are you doing here I've been searching for you everywhere in school forever and why did you skip Maths class? What is wrong with you, you never skip classes, especially your favourite subject." Vess says all these things in just one second without taking any breath.
"Ah! Vess, I've done something very wrong and now I'm in danger" I whispered so that no one will listen in the washroom. This is the only place I can think of to hide from Cole because he will never come into the girl's washroom.
"Oh not again. What did you do this time," she demanded. Just at the way she's is saying I couldn't control my anger and this problem is getting very big day by day. Last time one boy said that I'm not good for anyone and he had made fun of me in front of his friends. At that time I had slapped him but he was not the popular one, just a boy. This time I kicked the 'Cole Maxwell'.
"I kicked someone." I uttered and she just looked in my direction, not with the 'approving' look but the look which says 'you're impossible.
"And who's this someone?"
"Playjerk"
"You mean? No no, tell me it's not true. If it is then you're dead Amy." She said with a shocked look.
"Yes, I kicked Cole Maxwell in his legs but what could I do, he was being a jerk and said harsh words to me. Now, what am I going to do? Tell me." I asked.
"Calm down I have an idea you already skipped the class which you share with him. Now don't come to school for two days and I think after two days he'll forget about this."
"Uh oh, then I'll say to mom that I'm not feeling well."
"Yes, now hurry up history class is about to start and I know that Cole doesn't take this class," she assured me.
"Let's go then," I replied as we walked towards the class.
****
My mind is somewhere else. I didn't get whatever Ms Woods is teaching and then out of nowhere, Cole came. My heart started beating fast. What is he doing here? I know that he didn't take this class then why?
"AMANDA PARKER" I heard my voice.
''Yes!!" I uttered.
''Principal wants to see you." Ms Woods said and Cole's smirk grew bigger second by second. I almost got a heart attack. I don't know what am I going to say to the principal. What if Cole complained about my behaviour? What if I got expelled? Why God why are you doing this to me, I'm not that bad. I quickly glanced in the direction of Vess. Her face looks the same as mine but she nods her head in my direction saying that I should go.
"Come on hurry up Amanda. Cole is getting late!" Ms Woods yelled. I nervously started walking towards where Cole is standing. When I reached, he just winked and headed straight towards the principal room. I followed him silently. When we reached, he knocked and a voice came saying "Come in". My breath hitched I'm so afraid. What if I got expelled? Mom will surely kill me. I was just thinking that when he asked, "So you're Amanda Parker?". I just nodded my head.
"Well, you know that Cole is an upcoming star player on our school's football team. He's the captain and he has the potential to become a star one day and make his school proud but..."
First of all, I didn't know that he plays football not just plays he's a star and now my mind started working why he is so popular, why every girl wants him and like the playjerk he is, he used them and ditched them. That's why he has built a body. "How can I be so unobservant," I asked myself.
"But?" I uttered nervously.
"His grades in maths are falling day by day."
"Oh," I was surprised I had never expected that.
"So Cole said that if you can tutor him he can improve his grades and then there will be no problem for the school's football team. You're excellent at academics so I want you to help him in maths it will also improve your skills."
"But .."
"No buts! It's up to you to help him so he can improve his grades and can remain in his position as the captain and our school can win in the next match," he uttered all this in one breath with so much hope.
"Ok, I'll tutor him, Mr Bennet,'' I replied but in my mind, I've planned something else.
"Good, then you may go now."
I was just about to go when Cole said: "Mr Bennet ask Amanda to give her phone no. to me." He said with a smirk.
My heart skipped a beat. What am I going to do now? It was like he read my mind and asked Mr Bennet because he knew I can't say no to him." For God's sake, what am I going to do now?
"Why?" Mr Bennet asked.
"Mr Bennet I don't know where she lives and we hardly have any classes together. How will I contact her for tutoring me?" he replied with a smirk.
"Ok, then Amanda give your phone no. to him now." Mr Bennet demanded. ****
I gave it. I freaking gave it!! I know he just wanted to take his revenge but I'm not that stupid. I'll do something so he can't get back to me. I thought to myself as the rest of the school day passed and I was waiting for Vess near her car when she came.
"Vess, for two days I"ll be in MIA. Don't contact me, please! I" ll also not come to school." I pleaded.
"But what happened in the principal's office?" she asked.
"I'll tell you everything after two days. Please just do what I say."
She just nodded her head in reply.
"Good girl now I"ll get going. Bye!" then I ran towards the bus.
****
When I reached home, the first thing I did was switch off my phone and throw it in the closet. Then I changed my clothes to something comfortable. Mom is not home yet so I decided to watch TV while eating popcorn when suddenly the house's phone started ringing. I don't expect any call and if mom was not at home then who's calling? I ran towards the phone and picked it up.
"HELLO PARKER'S RESIDENCE." in reply all I received was a chuckle and not just a regular chuckle but a dangerous yet sexy chuckle. My heart started beating so fast and then......
chuckle. My heart started beating so fast and then......
Team Cole or Team Amanda? Xoxo❤
The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits. -----------------------------------------------------------Ever wondered what will you do when you don't want to do anything Nah you don't because I'm holding this phone and whoever is on the other side of it just want to laugh at my situation. I asked again,"Hello??????""Parker is so clumsy, clumsy is a nerd but Parker is an idiot while I'm smart as fuck.""In your dreams" I muttered."What did you just say?""Nothing so tell me what do you want and how did you get my house no?""I think you forget that I'm the star of our school and no one can say no to me if I want something" he finished. I can feel that he has his smirk plastered on his face. Ughh I just want to wipe that expressio
Don't judge emotions judge Intentions -------------------------------------------------Second time in a day I am completely drenched in cold water. I stood there open-mouthed and soaked, I wanted to curse him but I felt disgusted so I pulled my soaked t-shirt away from me and pushed away from the hair that was stuck to my mouth.Urgh!!I was just struggling to get away from my drenched shirt when I looked up to question him he was just looking into my eyes. His eyes were so hypnotizing. Oh God if I looked into them with the same passion he's looking then I will do something which I might regret later.Then look away damn it.So I started fixing my attire which is completely drenched in water. I don't know when and how he's in
The present tense is all we know regrets of the past we don't show -----------------------------------------------------------The sight of a vehicle is fading in front of my eyes. He's going to leave me alone. I can't see his face. "Please don't go, please don't leave me alone," I shouted on top of my voice but he didn't listen, he just vanished."Amanda wake up! Wake up!" Someone shouted in my ear.Slowly I opened my eyes, everything is in a blur but where am I? I was getting confused when I saw mom's face. Again that dream. I saw that dream again but I couldn't recall anything, everything was in a blur."Hurry up girl otherwise you'll be late and I don't allow tardiness." She demanded then walked away but wait for what? How did I end up here? As far as I remember I was in Cole's car yesterday when we were heading towards my hom
Fallacies are waiting for you everywhere.-----------------------------------------------------------I waited for his answer but a sudden outburst happened. The door opened and in just a moment some girls were looking at me with disgust. Well, I can't deny that I'm looking like some joker covered in paint but what I didn't understand is that they were looking at Cole with their mouth wide open. They were checking him out with lust I think! Eww! Disgusting.How can you say that it's disgusting just to look at him for once?My stupid inner voice can't resist herself. Well, it is not that bad to look at him. So, I moved my head towards playjerk's direction and he's shirtless but when and how he removed his shirt I don't know. His perfect body glorified him and paint colours were all over his body which made him sexier. Yeah, he's sexy but h
Whenever she sleeps, she hooked by the magic of dreams-----------------------------------------------------------Here, what I was thinking is Beyond far away from the reality because I never expected him to be here in my home and cheery on the cake is that he was talking with my mother in my absence."What're you doing here?" I yelled."Oh, I'm here for swimming! Can't you see?" His eyes bored into mine.Only I knew that his stupid sarcasm is not good just like his face.But you thought that his face was sexy remember?''Shutup! I didn't ask for your opinion. " I yelled and regretted. why? Because he heard it."I think you've lost your mind that's why you're blabbering things! Oh, one thing I almost forget is that you don't have a
Not everything happens according to you. -----------------------------------------------------------Finally, the day came the day in which I can feel different the day in which I can be enjoying specialities which normally people do of my age, The day which needs a lot of courageous work.I sighed as I woke up while thinking these things don't know what'll be going to happen today, my alarm alarmed me that I don't have enough time to think about these things. So, I got up and took the quickest shower although I almost sleep for eight hours I feel quite exhausted.I entered the school building with my bag hoisted on my shoulder. I don't know but I have a feeling that today is something different something is not regular then I got it school hallway is almost empty most of the students are not here. It only meant that I'm late, I rushed towards my first
Reality is far away from your imagination. -----------------------------------------------------------As we reached there, the palace is very big made up of white marble, It looks like a mansion a very big mansion."wow," I uttered in astonishment.People were rushing to get to go in there, the parking area is full with all the vehicles or should I say Cars because everywhere where my eyes roaming is just the Cars not normal Cars but all the high-class ravishing cars.Seriously, I don't understand why the hell is this gala or whatever it is happening and above all Dylan is throwing? I'm sure it's not what it looks like, I need to do something to find out or else I"all became mad in all this suspense, let me tell you one thing I can't bear suspense If whenever someone tells me anythi
You didn't even get a hint of it, but your heart gets it all. ----------------------------------------------------------Fact: A handsome guy is kissing me.Curious fact: I don't even know him.Strange fact: I liked it.When his lips crashed mine that was a moment when I forget everything. His lips were so soft and a weird tingling feeling ran through them to the tip of my toes.Slowly, he nibbled on my bottom lip causing my stomach to flip.Oh my god, what should I do? He's kissing me and I don't even know him. This is my first kiss and I'm enjoying it? What the hell is wrong with meJust push him away. Will you? Yeah, I need to push him this is the only thing I can do. I moved my hands to push h
