TAYA's POV : - - - - - ONE WEEK LATER - - - - - "What do you mean you're not going to the prom?" Hallee was fuming. If I were telling her this face to face, she would have gone all physical and started smacking my head, claiming that I had lost a few bolts. Thankfully though, it was over the phone "It means I'm not going," I repeated myself. "But... it's the prom!" "I know it is," It was the morning of the prom and I couldn't be less enthused. I kept checking for news about Mr. Harrison and nothing came up, so I'd assume he's still alive and well. That was a good thing. Judah going rogue must mean that he knows what he's doing. But still, Judah couldn't be reached and I had given up all hope that he would be back for the prom. And so, I called Hallee up and I told her that I wasn't going to leave the comfort of my room today. Sorry prom, but you're canceled, I said to myself as I glanced at the long golden dress hanging on my bathroom door. "But Tay, we got our dresses. We re
Kissing the Bad Boy 75: The Crush Culture
TAYA's POV : We walked down the stairs, full of laughter and smiles. Hallee was fixing Jesse's tie and Jesse was poking fun at Gabe's little handkerchief. I realized I hadn't smile this much in a while, not since two weeks ago, in fact. I decided to make it my mission to just have fun and have the best time tonight. With or without him. "Wait! Everyone, we need prom pictures!" my mom's voice echoed through the house as the four of us were about to walk out the door. She came out running, a camcorder on one hand, and her phone on the other hand. We ended up stopping by the living room and let mom took a few photos of us. "Ah, look at you, all grown up. And I love your new hair, or shall I say, old?" “Old is the new ‘new’,” I shrugged. “Well, I love it,” Mom smiled brightly. Once she was satisfied with the photo session, mom was going through the pictures with a smile, but suddenly the ball dropped and she shot me a look. "Hey, honey, what happened to Judah? I'm surprised he's n
Kissing the Bad Boy 76: The Plastic Crown
TAYA's POV : Senior Prom – A Night to Remember. The big banner in the middle of the room said it loud and proud. Our school went all out this year, renting this huge ballroom at the Harrison Resort, and the ballroom had been transformed into what looked like a Met Gala. The air was full of glamour and glitz. The room was donned in tall chandeliers, silky silver fabric hanging on the roof, a shining disco ball in the middle, and all these pretty people in their awesome dresses and suits were dancing through the night. The prom marked a monumental time in the lives of teenagers all across America. Some people dubbed it our coming of age moment, and others claimed that it was the grandest night of our teenage lives. So much pressure to put on a night. I spent the first hour of the night dancing and laughing away with Hallee, Gabe, and Jesse. I suppose this was the reason that made prom so special, it was our last big event that we could have together with our friends. After gradua
Kissing the Bad Boy 77: The Reality Bites
TAYA’s POV : "This is the worst night ever!” Viv declared. “I didn't win prom queen and I just caught my stupid boyfriend cheating on me with my best friend!" "What?" "Cameron... I saw him and Peyton went out the back door... I followed them out and I saw them having sex in the parking lot!" "Oh, Viv..." I let out a sigh and I patted her back a few times. As much as I didn't like Viviane, she did not deserve this. No one deserved this. "I gave him everything... I went all the way with him. He was my first," she cried into her hands some more, and I could only rub her back gently in response. "That sucks. I'm so sorry," She was bawling her eyes out, and I didn't know what to do. I was just awkwardly patting her back for the longest time before I finally decided to sit on the ground next to her. "Why are you here in this stinking bathroom with me? You wanna gloat about winning prom queen and having the most amazing boyfriend ever or something?" she spat suddenly. "No, Viv. I j
Kissing the Bad Boy 78: The Faith Leap
TAYA's POV : At first I thought about jumping down, but then my brain kicked in. Take the damn stairs! My feet turned on their heels instinctively. I was feeling a mix of emotions as I ran down the staircase— angry, happy, confused, relieved, everything all at once. "Judah...?" I stopped as I finally reached the last step down. "Wow, you look amazing," he shook his head from side to side as he studied me, "Love what you did with your hair," It really was him, nonchalant and cool as always. But I was not cool. I couldn't contain it anymore. Tears rolled down my face and my hand went to cover my mouth in disbelief. I wanted to speak but I was rendered speechless. I had so many things I wanted to say. Too many. I wanted to scream and yell at him too. But everything fell away the moment I saw his face again. "Hey, why are you crying?" he said as he closed in on me. His arms stretched out as he was about to hug me, but I quickly stepped back and shoved him away instead. "You left
Kissing the Bad Boy 79: The Silver Lining
JUDAH’s POV :* DING! *The elevator door opened with a ding and I stepped right out. A long dark desk stood in front of me and the man behind it lifted his gaze up to meet mine. He was sitting in this room all alone as his other bodyguards had been directed somewhere else.He was shocked to see someone entering the room, and his frown grew deeper as he studied my face. And when the realization hit him, his eyes widened in shock."Hello, father," I smiled. “It’s been a while,”"...Jaden?" he croaked.“No. That’s not my name. My name’s Judah now,”“W—what are you doing here?” he sat back in his chair, eyeing me from head to toe. Then he looked behind me to make sure I was alone, and his eyes scanned the room for his guards, though none of them were around.“I wouldn’t do that if I were you,” I said when I saw his hand reaching under the table. “If you sound the alarm, you’re gonna cause a riot. They’ll then take you to the South Gate and that’s not the place you wanna be,”Dad furrowed
Kissing the Bad Boy 80: The Last Cigarette
TAYA's POV :Our hair, body, and clothes were soaked, but we didn't care.With our hands clasped together, we just laughed at the people who gave us weird looks as we made our way back inside. Not everyone was giving us weird looks though, some people cheered and whistled at us too. Principal Finn had a concerned look on his face, and Judah just flashed him a wink.We were making a dash out of the ballroom, followed by claps and cheers. I wished we could stay for one more dance, but Judah had given me an offer I couldn't refuse.As we made our way out to the parking lot, I caught a glimpse of Hallee's red dress stuck amongst a row of bushes. I couldn't help laugh a little, wondering about that girl and her bushes fetish."After you, my lady," Judah had his hand out to me as we reached his motorcycle."Why, I thought you said chivalry's dead?" I said as I took his hand, and he led me gently up the bike."Not tonight," and that boyish smirk came out again.* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Kissing the Bad Boy 81: The Moving Mountains
TAYA's POV :- - - - - THREE WEEKS LATER - - - - -I hadn't been this nervous since the time I stood on a stage for the play. And here I was again, standing in front of hundreds and hundreds of my family and friends on a makeshift stage in the middle of the football field.I knocked the microphone in front of me a few times and coughed to loosen up my throat. The feedback rang and I stopped the knocking immediately."Teachers and faculty, family and friends, and our fellow graduating seniors, first of all, I'd like to say congratulations to us all, we've made it," I said as I took in a deep breath, staring out into the sea of faces in front of me."I'm standing here today as your senior class representative, and I'm supposed to give you a speech, to reflect back on our high school days and to motivate you all for the upcoming future. But let's be honest, that's a load of crap," short laughs echoed through the air and I sighed a breath of relief."Honestly, I don't even know how I got
