I sense something crazy coming up, with a new guy moving to town.
Damien I was pissed when I noticed that I was talking to Dabby, and she got distracted by a message notification from her phone. I knew I had overreacted with how stressed I was from tending to her the previous day, but I was mostly because of the plans of vacation I heard my dad discuss with her mum. If it was in the past that I knew that Dad was traveling, I would have been happy because it was a great avenue to have my freedom to myself. But having to remain in the same house with a clumsy girl for days, where I would want to host a party and enjoy my space stuff is the worst. I could never allow anyone to know or find out that we had become step siblings. Especially from school. Without even allowing me to say any further, she opened the door to the car and alighted like she had been waiting for that. And off she ran like a flash of light without even looking back. I wondered why she was really dumb. I was used to seeing most ladies rebel whenever they didn't like some
DABBY I woke up to the cold feeling of the marbled floor, and then I realized that I was lying on the floor instead of the couch. I shook my head and stood up immediately realizing that I was supposed to be waking up from my room, and not from the living room where anyone could just see me. Remembering that mother and Damien's dad were not no longer in the house, I frowned the moment I checked my phone to see no call from Mum. Time was already fast spent. 'Was she that invested in spending more time with her new lover, that she absolutely forgot her daughter?' Nevertheless, I stood up from the couch, grabbed the remaining pieces of Mac and cheese I was eating from yesterday night, and made my way straight to the kitchen to clean it up. My mind traveled back to the previous night when Damien walked past me to the kitchen. I opened the pot to check and I knew that he had eaten from the food. I wondered if he was probably seeing me in a likable light. I felt kind of delighted th
Damien:Almost immediately, the doorbell rang and I pretended to not know who was there, as I opened the door nonchalantly and looked at them in the usual way. They were carrying a lot of things with them for the party. "Why were you running? We called you but you seemed to be in a rush," Xavier said with a doubtful look on his face, as they all made their way in one after the other. Madison gave me a tight hug immediately and tried to kiss me on the lips, but I evaded it instantly by just patting her hair. "Had something really important to check," I lied, and I almost snarled at myself. I didn't want to also be a snob to my friends like the figure I represented to others, but I definitely could not look like a joke either. "This place smells like baked cake or something. I thought you said your dad traveled already," Madison pointed out, and ran to the kitchen where the smell was coming from to check immediately. I wanted to yank her by the hair real hard, and drag her back to w
Dabby:When he was asked to go and sit down after the teacher introduced him, he ignored the willing eyes that urged him and came to sit in the empty locker space next to mine. He gave me a wink when I gave him a confused but timid too, and my heart almost melted. 'It was really him. Was I dreaming?' I couldn't focus for the next two classes, because my mind was filled with the fact that I had talked so much about myself, with a stranger that turned out to be real. And he was in my school. "I.. cannot believe this is really you," my voice came out so timidly, and fearfully too as I looked at the tall guy standing before me outside the classroom. He looked more handsome and manly than he did in his pictures, that it was difficult to believe that I had been friends with this hot guy all along. His pretty green eyes were really charming, and even his new style of hair was stunning. 'Just how could things take this kind of turn?' "It is more nice to see you, Dabby. You are rea
"Thank you, Mason," I appreciated him, thankful that he actually stood up for me. I felt sorry again that he had a loser like me for a friend. "It is my pleasure. Those people are terrible people. How do you cope with them?" He inquired incredulously with a crease on his eyebrow, which made him look really cute. Trying to fathom how I got a wonderful friend like him was unbelievable. "I am really fine. Thank you," I said again and he let out a smile instead. A very charming one. "That guy over there. The one that has the bully as a girlfriend. Is he your step brother? The one you told me about?" Mason asked mindlessly, and my heart surged by a fear raised to the degree of hundred. "Oh my goodness!" I exclaimed in fear that someone might hear from where we were standing, as I pulled Mason to another corner far away from where we were before."Please, do not say that. No one can know. Absolutely nobody," I panicked shakily, as I tried to check again if no one was around. The one
Damien POV:It was peaceful in the house till Monday morning, and I was quite surprised that Dabby left home so early. I hated that everything had to be like this, especially the part about being home with a clumsy girl, but it was much better than seeing dad around. I got ready for the day quite late, and decided to work on some projects on my laptop. I could peacefully do these things because dad is not at home, and I was having my freedom doing them without any shitty talks. He always thought I was a failure ever since mum left, and he had been trying to mold me into the man that he was. That he wanted. I only had two options: Study business administration and lead the company, or study medicine and take over grandfather's hospital as the director. I hated both courses even if it was going to pave my way to success, and dad was never going to hear of anything than what he wanted. It was glaring that even if I became what he wanted me to be, I would never be enough for h
Dabby: I watched Damien get more angry and angry with me, and I started to get the urge to cry already. I was really scared of him because of the way he was looking at me, and the manner at which he started to come closer. My entire body started to retreat in accordance with my brain signal even without my own permission, till my back was now resting on the wall and there was no place to move to any longer. Damien's huge body towered over my own body and he grabbed my jaw so harshly, as his blue eyes bored an invisible hole in me and I almost crumbled in fear. I held my breath so that he wouldn't hate me even more, but it was really hard to be so scared and not breathe at the same time. "Hear me out, four eyes. There is curfew in this house and you have to respect it. Anything after 9:00pm is a no, and you will sleep outside in the cold if you are a minute late. Is that clear?!" His voice ordered authoritatively, and I felt my breathe fly again with my eyes raised up to its
Dabby: "You got a new girl already?! Are you kidding Damien? Have you been two-timing?!" Madison rushed so many questions at him, and he just let out a derisive smirk and turned to her. "Do you know how disgusting it is to deal with you? Just a little breakup and you call the crowd. You really suck," he said to her face, and she could not hold her tears again. "So, who is your new girl? I am sure she cannot be any better than me! She would never be," Madison didn't give up still, and continued to shout and scream in anger. "You know what? I am sick of you, bitch. And that is why we are breaking up. I never want to see your face anywhere around me," he warned icily, "And also, for my new girlfriend. She doesn't have to be better than you. In fact, she might be a nerd, you know. A really innocent and clueless nerd," he emphasized on the last word, and continued to give me a very disgusting look. I hated that. Mason noticed what was going on between me and Damien, and just help
