ANNA Chapter 14
Colton's POV"Colton Morgan!" My mom yelled and I groaned. I was about to answer her when on second thoughts, I decided not to. Answering her wasn't going to do much anyway, since she was just going to repeat the same words she had been saying since I got home which were "don't make us go late".I adjusted tie I was wearing and deciding that I was looking good enough. I put my phone in my pocket and went downstairs to the living room, where my parents were seated. My dad was reading a newspaper and my mom was fiddling with her phone, probably playing candy crush. What is with females and that boring game? What do they see in it?"You're finally out", my dad said. "I was starting to think that you weren't coming." I rolled my eyes. I didn't want to go but they forced me into this. "It's not like I have a choice", I retorted.My mom put her phone in her purse and analyzed me. "This suit isn't good enough", she said when she was done. I almost fainted at that. Did she really expect me to
ANNA Chapter 15
Anna's POVDex and I got to the venue of the occasion and he opened the door for me. Under normal circumstances, I wouldn't let him do that but it was for appearances. Plus, I didn't want it to seem like he wasn't doing his job. I gave him a grateful smile and he nodded. He was still tense. I wanted to guess that it had something to do with meeting his former bosses but I honestly couldn't fathom how that was even a big deal. Throughout the ride, he was extra quiet and had a frown on his face. That worried me because the Dex I was used to was very jovial and always found a way to get me to converse with him.I took awhile to take a good look at the house before me. It was big, that's for sure. Too big, in fact. On the outside, it looked rich but empty. It didn't have that homely attribute. I liked our house more. Dex and I didn't have to go in before we saw a butler who said he would take us to the party room.When we got there, from the door to it, I could see that it was a very lar
ANNA Chapter 16
Anna's POVI let out an ear piercing scream. Something that looked very much like milk was spilled on my left arm.I waited for the impact of the liquid but nothing came."What is wrong with you?" The girl who was carrying it asked me. If the situation was better, I would have slapped her. I mean, dude you spilled something on me and couldn't apologize? I guessed she was one of these rich kids who see that as a reason to be rude.Still, I was too scared to argue with her. Instead, I asked, "what was that?""What was what?""The liquid that spilled on me."She scoffed. "It was wine. Haven't you seen wine before? Or maybe your parents just can't afford it."At that point, I was just irritated. Though I was relieved that it wasn't milk, I just couldn't help the anger and irritation that came over me. I
ANNA Chapter 17
Colton's POVThere was an earpiercing scream. This scream had the ability to make you deaf, literally. It was so loud that the chandeliers in the ball room shook a little. Yes, I was looking at the ceiling because I was bored.All of us at my table stood up to go in the direction the scream came from. We got there to see Carly Austin and Annabelle having what looked like a face off. Carly said something and Annabelle slapped her. That brought out the madness in Carly because she started shouting and jumping up and down.Call me evil, but I loved seeing Annabelle slap the girl. Whatever Carly said must have been really bad and I personally think she was born annoying, just like her mother.With time, the parents of both girls came over and the disagreement ended. At first, I thought of just watching them and staying in the shadows, but I remembered Anna and I were supposed to be f
ANNA Chapter 18
Anna's POVI left the table to find the bathroom. In all honesty, I had not the faintest idea of where the bathroom was. I had three options. One: ask someone in the Austin family, two: tell my parents to ask them, three: ask a random stranger. Asking any of the Austins was out of the question for me. I also didn't want to consider asking my parents because it still boiled to having one of the Austins, most likely Carly, accompany me. I settled with the idea of asking a random stranger, preferably a girl. The problem was finding a suitable person to ask. A large number of the guests was on the dance floor. I wandered around for awhile before someone tapped my shoulder. I turned around to see Carly's brother. Well, I hoped it was her brother since they sort of looked alike. "Can I help you?" I asked him. "Actually, I'm here to help you", he said. I raised my left eyebrow. "How, if I may ask?"He shrugged. "You're obviously looking for something. I just came to know if everything i
ANNA Chapter 19
Anna's POVWe finally got home after the party. I was more than grateful. That was a long night. At first, I thought Dex would take me home, just for my dad to tell me that we were all going home together and that he had already dismissed Dex.The drive home was silent, very silent. In short, it was too silent for my liking but who was I to complain? It's not like I was even prone to talking with my parents until it was absolutely necessary.We got home in no time. I dashed up to my room to remove that dress I was wearing. Just like Anas pointed out, I've never been a fan of dresses and wearing one was a lot of work for me. In fact, wearing a dress was my ideal picture of torture.I got out of that thing and went to have my bath for the third time that day. I was actually too exhausted to bathe but when I remembered the events of the night, I suddenly had lots of energy. I couldn't imagine myself sleeping in
ANNA Chapter 20
Anna's POVI got up for another day. I remembered the events of last night and hissed. I didn't want to think of those two. I would not let them spoil my morning.I did my morning routine and got ready for school. When I was ready, I went downstairs to the kitchen."Good morning, Kathy", I greeted her. She was making sandwiches. I guessed they were for my breakfast.Kathy responded with her usual smile. "How are you today, Belle?" She asked."I'm fine", I replied.Then the worst thing of the morning happened. My mother came in."Good morning ma'am", Kathy said nervously. One couldn't blame her. My mom had never been found in the kitchen since we got here."Good morning Katherine", she responded. "Please leave us.""But she hasn't finished making my sandwich", I protested. No way was I going to st
ANNA Chapter 21
Anna's povWe were in Physics class and it was extra boring. I normally hated Physics but in the case, Mrs. Kyle's teaching was making me hate it even more.I looked around me to see that more than half the class was already asleep. Great, just great. I was seated in the middle row, by the window, as always. Vanessa sat beside me, on my left since the window was on my right. Brooke was in the front row, paying attention like her life depended on it."I'm bored. I want to sleep", I whispered to Vanessa when Mrs. Kyle turned to face the board."Don't", she whispered back with a tone of warning.I rolled my eyes. "But why? Half the class is already sleeping", I said."Anna, I'm warning you. Don't do it. You'll thank me later", she said and resumed taking notes.Wait, what? She had been taking notes the whole time while I stared out the window?
