It All Started With A DARE •31•
Standing between one of the shelves, my eyes scanned through the textbooks arranged neatly on each row of shelves.I was looking for a statistics textbook to borrow from the library and then go home immediately since it was closing hours.Squinting, my gaze, I searched through the textbooks in the business section when I felt an arm wrapped around my waist suddenly and twirling me around.A slight gasp escaped my lips, my eyes widened almost bulging out of their eye sockets, and my heart beating t before my gaze fell and rested on Kayden's appearance, and a rush of relief ran through me.“What are you doing here?” I asked him in a hushed, low voice, glancing around and hoping no one was nearby to see me and him together.Kayden smiled softly at me, releasing one of his arms around my waist and bringing them up to the side of my face.I swallowed hard staring at him, when he didn't reply, my instinct immediately told me to move away from him which I did, but he pulled me closer to him,

The next day at school, I was walking through the school hallway and I noticed the awkward stares I was getting from the students.They whispered among themselves and stared at me like I was a criminal and did something bad.“Are you sure she's the one?” I heard someone say.“She is, she is the one,” I heard another girl mutter to the other girl.I sighed and decided to keep my head low and ignored everyone, I was wondering what happened, it's not like I don't get awkward stares from people, I do, but today's own was a bit off.“So, she's the one who stole her boyfriend?” I heard another person say.'What?' My heart was beating quickly for unknown reasons.'Who stole whose boyfriend?' I thought but on second thought, I decided to brush everything aside, if anyone has the mind to say something about someone they would face them personally, eye to eye.I got closer to my locker, my hands shoved deep into my blue baggie trousers.My gaze fell on a poster pasted on my locker and I wondere

I decided to stop crying, why was I crying in the first place? He never declared he loved me, he just said he liked me, so, that's two different aspects, he didn't ask me to be his girlfriend, he never made advances for sex each time we were together, except he would kiss me and that was all.So, why am I angry at him? Is it because I've started to like him more than I should? Because I thought I would expect more from him? Is it because he was the first guy in my life I've gotten to love?'Why am I dumb?' I sighed, the thousands of questions running through my head were sickening.I don't want questions and I don't want answers, I just want to go back to the old normal me. So, why does this hurt so much? It felt as if I was stabbed with a poisoned sharpened knife.I didn't care much about the poster stuff, where they had pictures of Kayden and me kissing, I just had to bear in mind that I'll be a trending topic for the next two to three weeks before it finally goes down.I sniffed,

“Rose, please, can you get us three plates of fries and chicken,” I requested from her when I got to the counter while Ariana and Ivy looked for somewhere to sit?“Sure,” She replied, and I smiled at her before walking over to where Ariana and Ivy were sitting at.“It's very nice here,” Ariana remarked, and Ivy nodded in agreement.Rose came with the three plates and a different mix of smoothies.“Here you go, girls,” She smiled, dropping the food on the table.“Thank you,” Ariana and Ivy chirped happily at her, and she nodded in response, then she turned around with the food tray in her hands.Ariana dug into the fry first and deep it into the ketchup sauce she was given.“Oh, goodness, this is wonderful,” She beamed brightly.“Absolutely great,” Ivy nodded as she ate her chicken first.“How come I didn't know about this place?” Ariana asked herself dreamily while I chuckled.Being in their company was great, and it made me think less of Kayden at the moment.“Because we're living fa

Kayden's POV.I watched how Jade played with her friends on the rollercoaster ride, her screaming, and her laughter were everything to me.If, only she knew I especially loved her and didn't mean all that I said in that video. I hated Athena for what she did, that crazy bitch, it took me a lot of effort not to have slapped her.She crossed the line big time today. I stood not far from the rollercoaster where people were having a great time, I wore a face cap, so that Jade wouldn't see me if we were to pass by each other.I didn't want her to get angry and sad, now that she's getting over her emotions.My phone beeped, and I knew it was my dad calling, he could be annoying and a pain in the ass every so often.I decided not to pick up the call, I switched off my phone and shoved it back into my pocket.I smiled when she reached the lower part screaming, while her two friends were laughing their butts off, I'm happy they could cheer her spirit up.Standing at my hidden spot for a few mo

Jade's POV.I entered my room, Ariana and Ivy just dropped me in front of the house, we had a lot of fun at the park, and it was nice hanging out with them.I walked over to my bed and sat on the edge, I pulled off the hairband holding my hair up, and let my hair fall to the back.I lay on my bed and closed my eyes, I began thinking of Kayden why can't I shush him out of my bed, I thought angrily.I decided to have a warm breath, so, I dropped my bag on the bed, and stood up. I walked into my bathroom, after peeling off the clothes around my body.I switched on the shower and began taking my bath.Kayden's face popped up into my mind, and I opened my eyes immediately. 'What the hell is wrong with me?' I frowned.I quickly had my shower and stepped out of the bathroom, I walked back into my bedroom, then to my closest to pick a big-sized top that reach my mid-thigh.Then, I decided to pick up my phone, Kayden's messages popped up, and I sighed, deciding to open his messages.I saw tons

The next day at school, the sit next to me which was Kayden's seat was empty, I tried so hard not to think of where he could be.I didn't see any glimpse of him since the first period, and now we're in the third period.I wondered why I was being worried about him when I shouldn't.'He doesn't deserve it,' My face twisted in a knot while I hit the tip of my pen annoyingly on the desk.The bell rang, and the math teacher ended the class, after giving us an assignment, he then trotted out of the class.I brought out my phone and clicked on my call log, staring at his missed calls while my heart plummeted, I wanted to call him, but I decided against it.Biting my lower lips nervously, I sighed frustratingly and dropped my phone on the table, leaning back in my seat.Then, I packed my books into my bag and stood up, I glanced toward Athena when making my way out of the class, my gaze met hers and with her legs crossed on her desk, she sneered at me and looked away.I ignored her and walke

“Hey, are you okay?” I asked Kayden, staring at the way his hands wrapped firmly around my wrist.“Yeah,” I heard him mutter, we got into the hallway and the students around stared at us curiously, wondering what was wrong, especially with Kayden.His whole top was soaked with sweat, and blood drizzling aside his head.We got to his locker, and he unlocked it, finally leaving my hands alone, he brought out a black top and closed his locker. He leaned closer to the metallic locker and placed his forehead on the cold surface of the locker and closed his eyes.“Would you like to go to the infirmary?”“You don't look too well,” I observed.“No,” He muttered in a breathy voice.“I would just clean up, I'm fine,” He uttered then moved away from the locker and stared at me, then I nodded slowly.“Okay,” I agreed and took a step away from him, his eyes glistened at me as sadness clouded his features.I don't even know what to say to him.“Jade,” He started, moving closer to me, I can see all t
