CHAPTER 49 : THAT NIGHT...The girls had Econs after break. Elva and Natalia sat together at the front while Nicky sat alone behind. They were talking until someone slipped in beside her. Nicky turned to pass a greeting but stopped seeing Jeffrey's smiling face. She looked away immediately.Sorry Jeff, but you aren't gonna make getting over you harder for me."Hey, Nick." He grinned but she only nodded. After saying hi to Elva and Natalia, they naughtily winked at her and faced forward.Silly girls! When did they turn to matchmakers??Nicky thought of leaving. It was the best thing to do. She looked around to see if there was a free seat but found none. The class was full."Is there a reason you're back to being distant?" He worriedly asked. Maybe the 'uninterested' vibe would shun him. She thought and faced her books."Nicky, what happened to our friendship? Are you mad at me?"She still ignored him. When Jeffrey tried to take her hand, she stood up instantly."Who wanna switch sea
CHAPTER 50 : HIS SEDUCTIVE TOUCH."No, no! I meant nothing serious happened between us! Please stop crying. I'm not good with crying girls...or people in general." Arian pleaded and Natalia stopped a bit.He grabbed one of his phones nearest to him. Thankfully, it wasn't ruined like the rest and logged into the school's blog. What Arian saw nearly made him laugh out!It was a picture of the both of them earlier at the school garden. A student obviously took it when they almost kissed. It was shot in a way that it actually looked like they were kissing!They looked so cute together!!"What are you grinning at?!" Natalia whined, wiping her tears completely. Was he really smiling??She tried to poke her head in but Arian kept it away from her, admiring how cute she looked in curiosity."Arian, let me see!" She demanded making him chuckle. The Princess impatiently glared at him. But to the young French, not even the glare could make her less attractive."Okay, fine!" He chuckled when she
CHAPTER 1 : The Renowned Princess. The sweet smell of freshly cut roses wafted through her nostrils as the princess stirred slightly on her too comfy, queen size bed. With an aggrieved groan, the Crown Royal thought of catching a teeny more snooze before the royal maids came into her chambers for the usual morning routine. But sadly enough... "Good morning, your Highness." A courteous voice she knew too well, uh not-too-pleasantly, serenaded her. It was the capable Elva Thompson, the princess's personal aide. "Elva, in the name of all things spicy which you can't live without, please just five more minutes!" Natalia drawled and lazily turned over the other side of the huge bed, cuddling more into one of her countless soft throw pillows. "I apologize, Your Highness, but there's a lot of royal duties to perform today and we're running out of time." Elva replied with the same professional voice which could fool anybody. Well, not everybody though. "No! I ache
CHAPTER 2 : Fall In Love Too. "Well...your loss." Jeffrey replied in the same tone. Everyone chuckled again and even Ricky ended up smirking. Arian simply displayed his legendary eye roll and completed the journey from the stairs to the nearest dining chair. With a curt gesture of his hands, Butler Lee signalled the standby maids and what was left of breakfast was cleared up within minutes. Nanny came over and took little Tommy upstairs while Mom Rose followed behind, fussing over ordering a new collection of children's wears again. Certainly, the old ones were as good as trashed. The rich? Jeffrey Campbell sighed. "Dude, tell me you're taking that baby out on a freakin' helluva ride!" Ricky whistled, looking thrilled the moment the young heirs were left by themselves. With the exception of the family butler, of course. A-mobiles was about to launch another brand new, model sport car and as usual, Arian's father had sent him one in advance. Sir Argen
CHAPTER 3 : Twisted Distractions... Elva Thompson, who was a fanatic of juicy gists, gasped again in astonishment as Natalia shared the conversation between her and her grandmother. They were seated on the princess's bed with the canopy away. Elva was brushing her hair, preparing her for bed. "I feel so ungrateful. How could I be so selfish to think of myself alone!" Natalia groaned again and palmed her flushed face. "Hey, it's okay. Don't beat yourself up over it. You were just being sincere to your only blood relative." Elva soothed, packing her glorious brownish blonde hair into two cute ponytails. The Princess had really long hair. Natalia took the hair brush from her and they promptly switched places. Yeah... they were that close. "I know but I could've been a little more sensitive!" "Okay, but if you don't mind....you're being a little too tough on my poor hair!" Elva painfully squealed. Natalia was unconsciously pulling her hair too hard, e
CHAPTER 4 : Meeting The Twin. ( Beverly Hills, California. ) The party was as hot as flames! The music, the drinks, the girls?? Shit! Ricky Winterfield chuckled deliriously as he drove into the familiar surrounding. The party mania got all his depression, pain and frustration away....at least temporarily. He parked his sport car randomly at the driveway and strutted his way up into the deserted mansion where he lived alone, stumbling a bit in the process. Home, Sweet Home! Ricky sighed. No business obsessed father. No fashion freak of a mother. No annoying, conventional twin sister. No one!Just he, himself and.... him? Ricky tipsily chuckled at nothing in particular, mentally prepping himself for a delicious hot dip in the jacuzzi! His quiet time. In his ecstatic state, he failed to notice the figure sitting impatiently on a couch, her legs crossed with her fingers impatiently tapping the armrest. Immediately the heir came
CHAPTER 5 : Sounds Like A Plan. Morning had long come, but Becky O'Neil laid on her simple but cozy bed, listening to the clock tick away. Aside studying or running to her part time jobs, it was something she did every morning on school breaks when she woke up. Different from those times when her thoughts were occupied on how to steal Danny Craig's attention, the sound from the clock soothed her wandering mind and helped her think a bit more clearly. Becky wasn't sure what to call it. A crush, love, fantasy, infatuation or plain stupidity! As far as she could remember, she'd always liked Danny, ever since junior high. Now they were about to enter senior year but he still hadn't even looked her way once. Since Danny was the assistant captain of the school's football team, Becky had tried everything possible to get him to notice her. Even trying out for cheerleaders practice! No one could really know how frustrating it was trying out repeatedly only to be awfully embar
CHAPTER 6 : Sad And Pained.Jeffrey's text popped up next. "Guys! Guess what luck I ran into last night??... Well, bad-good luck?" "Got mugged, stole your stuff, had to walk home naked?" THAT was Arian. "Jeez, man! Why'd you hate me so much?" From where he was taking a break at the Campbell's gym, Jeffrey twitched his lips. "Yeah. After you crashed his little party last night!" Ricky chuckled. Jeffrey suddenly felt betrayed. Arian had never thrown a party before. And as his best friend, he wasn't invited?! "What party?" He sulked, swiftly moving his fingers. Ricky was about to generously reply when someone showed up. He looked up expecting Nicky but met his mom....or rather, Mrs Winterfield, instead in her elements. She lit up when she saw him. "It's been a while, son! How long again?... Well, that's not important as long as you're back home." She gushed and walked further down the stairs with her personal maids. "Why didn't you come see me? I'ld have a
