Few hours had passed by.At first Zachariah showed me that he had completed half of the project without me knowing, ofcourse.His notes were detailed and the descriptions of the thesis was extra.Then his mom had came by to pass us some snacks as we studied and surprisingly, I learned about a few topics but Maths was something I couldn't grasp my hands on.For the past few minutes I was stuck on the very same question he had just taught me how to solve it moments ago. My brain being the slowest couldn't understand it at all.A groan left my mouth as I banged my head against the table, “Stupid Maths. Who even fucking invented this piece of gross numbers.”A chuckle brought me back from my depressed trance. Lifting my head up, I saw Zachariah looking at me from under his glasses with an amused expression.An open book resting inbetween his hands.“Having trouble?”“What does it look like then? fun?” Grumbling, my eyes flickered back on the paper. The question making my patience slip awa
A wave of nervousness flashed in my body.His expression were twisted in a weird way making my stomach churn in anxiety. Did I get them all wrong? am I that stupid? Shifting in my position back and forth, I chewed on my lower lip. “Um..”“Quiet for a second.” His words instantly made me shut up.After a few minutes, which seemed to be hours, he finally placed the sheet of the paper down infront of him. His face blank and expressionless.Oh boy. I did disappoint him. “Did I.. fail?” I asked vulnerably, my voice just above a whisper.Sliding the paper towards me, I abruptly placed my hand on the paper, not liking the idea of glancing at a big fat zero.His eyebrow arched, silently questioning why I was being like this. But what can an anxiety filled girl do? she can't see the disappointment in their orbs, specially his.“Let go. And look at your paper.” He stated, gripping the corner of the paper and yanking it away from my hold.Shaking my head vigorously, I turned around and crossed
“The ocean?”Zachariah hummed, looking away. Red tint covering the whole area of his cheeks.We both had left the basement since it was getting a bit hotter with time. Right now, we were seated on the same bean bags but on a different floor. The floor of Zachariah's bedroom. “Why?”“Uh, I don’t know. I have always loved the fresh sea breeze.”“Oh? Really? Well for some reason the color of eyes reminds me of the sea and the greenery within in it.” I blurted out with a small smirk latched on my face. His head turned towards me, wide eyed. “Eh, stop exaggerating.”“I’m quite serious though.” I shrugged, giving him a playful glare.He shook his head and mumbled, “but some people say that I have weird and scary eyes who lure people away.”A gasp left my mouth. “What-?! no way. Who the fuck said such thing?”“N-No one.” He sighed and stood up.His feet led him to the attached balcony.“Zar, you can't let people talk to you like that.” I scoffed whilst mimicking his actions.I walked and st
"I still think this is a bad idea.""Shut your mouth for once, okay?" I huffed as I went through his weird stuffed closet. "I swear Celestina, this is not good." He sighed, leaning against the door with his arms wrapped on his chest.I tsked, ignoring him for the twentieth time."Shush."From the past half an hour I was trying to find something elegant yet attractive at the same time but his wardrobe was filled with simple and cute clothes. Expected from a nerd. "Don't you have something presentable?" Tilting my head, I arched an eyebrow at him."Sorry for not being presentable." He mocked back mimicking my exact same expression."Oh boy this won't do. You need exposure and these pieces are getting in the way." I stated, getting up. Turning around, I exited his walk in closet with him following me behind. Tapping my chin, I thought for a better idea."You have too many bright colors." Diverting my eyes to his body, I carefully examined his aura."Black, dark grey and white would defi
"You're drooling, Zachariah."Red tint immediately covered his cheeks. He gulped and averted his eyes.The bright red dress I wore today was quite revealing then usual so it was obvious for him to stare at me those big doey eyes. The silky bodycon dress was backless, strapless and reach my mid thighs as tiny white sequins adorned the chest line."Ready?" I asked him and he hesitantly nodded. "Great, let's get you your very first drink." I smiled and walked towards the exit with him following me behind.I swear I had even heard a sharp intake of breath behind me.We both took his luxurious car and departed from my house, since apparently I had left mine at home.*Few moments later, we reached at our destination; also know as the club; Devils Red.We both exited the car with him shivering in fear and anxiety. As we marched towards the entrance, Zachariah suddenly halted and looked at me, "I-I'm not sure about this. Can we like g-go back?" He asked."Are you scared, Zar?" Tilting my hea
"Common, move that body, round and round."The song above us was playing in a very sensational tone. Couples surrounded me and Zachariah bringing us closer to one another. My hands encircled his neck whilst his were carefully resting on my naked mid back."I'm d-dizzy." He muttered lowly as we both slowly swayed against the light beat.I chuckled and gazed at his angelic face. His lightly freckled skin was flushed deep red while his ocean green orbs had darkened and were dropping shut with each and every passing second.He was a pretty drunk, insanely pretty.Maybe I gave him too much shots? But their is a saying--first time for everything!"Zachariah, don't you dare sleep. We still have to party for the rest of the night." I whined, tightening my arms around his bare hot nape. He immediately shook his head and brought me closer until my chest was touching his muscular one.Holy macaroons. He dipped his head in crook of my neck and sensually mumbled against my skin. "T-This is.. craz
"Who the hell is this? and why are you dragging him in my house? Celestina Vidal, I swear to God if you have killed him and you're trying to bury him somewhere in this house, I'll kick you out with my own hands. And snitch out to the police and what the hell are you wearing? where-""Jesus, mom. Can you please stay quiet for a freaking moment?" I sighed in relief when his body carefully landed on my bed with a thud. "Are you sure, I don't have to call the police? I-""MOM!""What..?""Please quiet down would you?" She nodded and gave me knowing, clean-up-this-mess-and-we'll talk, expression and left my room.Grabbing a blanket from my couch, I covered him up. On instinct, his head immediately ducked under the delicate softness leaving his mop of fluffy hair in view.I chuckled and shook my head, amused.Walking away, I threw my nightdress over my shoulder and went to the bathroom to freshen up.Couple of minutes later, I came out more relaxed. The cold water had did wonders on my warm
"I suppose, if I say you didn't heard our conversation, would it be a lie?""I'm sorry."I heaved a deep sigh and closed my eyes for a moment, before opening them again. "How much?""H-Half, when your mother started to speak." He stuttered and sat down on the chair, which was placed beside the broken isle. "Here, your water." I slid the filled glass towards him. "Thankyou and I'm sorry once again." He mumbled and grabbed the glass. Gulping it in one go, he heaved a deep sigh."That's why you were always so emotional when someone mentioned your father?"I could have laughed at his question, though I wasn't amused at all. The smallest secret I held was now like an open book. Once, I had swore, if the truth of my life came out, I'd go take my life, one way or the other.I shrugged and opened the wooden cabinet, where I stuffed my junk.Grabbing a pack of cigarette, I opened the cap and placed the deadly stick between my lips, whilst tossing the half filled pack next to him.I wrapped my
