The Badboy's Redemption CHAPTER TWENTY TWO
"Alright everyone. Pens up!"I groan as I tick off the correct answer to the last question in my test sheet. Miss Oregon decided to give us an impromptu Literature test today of all fucking days.Is today really that cursed for me?!"Alicia, gather up all the test sheets."Tiffany and Greg are literally glaring at each other, Tiffany's hand pulling at Greg's test sheet. My eyes let go of the silent war drama occuring between them as I stand, closing my pen and picking up my test sheet.Luke stretches his test sheet to me like I am some servant made to run his fucking errands for him. We haven't glanced each other's way since morning, let alone said any word to each other, and now he thinks he can just shove his test sheet into my hands?Hell fucking almighty NO!I ignore him and walk to the front. I hope he gets the memo that just because he is my seatmate and some stupid ass badboy doesn't mean he gets to maneuver standard class protocol.Emily, the fair pretty brunette of our class s

My mouth is still covered, the assailant's palm still muffling my screams, his other hand pressing me to the wall.The room is dark, so dark that I can't see anything.In a split second, the hand pressing me to the wall leaves my shoulder, and I hear a flip sound. I flinch when a bright light suddenly lits up the entire room, piercing through my eyes.I blink a couple times, adjusting my eyes to the light's intensity.And to the face of my assailant.I freeze.Anger starts to boil up inside me, and with all the strength I can muster, I crush the numbness in my bones by pushing him off me."Luke! Are you mad?!"My heart is slamming against my chest. Slamming in anger. Pain. Madness. Surprised fury."Alicia, we. . . . .we need to talk."I can hear the faint footsteps and giggles of students walking down the hallway outside, apparently heading to the cafeteria for lunch but oblivious of a girl trapped in this room with a boy that is just the definition of insanity."We don't have anythin

My hand is already at the door handle, but Luke's hand grabs my arm, spinning me around to face him."Alicia listen to me, please."His pleading voice fills me with even more spite."Leave me alone Luke!" I jerk my arm away from his grasp, the force making a teardrop fall from my left eye. "I don't want to listen to you! I don't want to listen to anything you have to say! You are so fucking insane Luke! Don't you get it?! I don't want to have anything to do with you anymore!"Another teardrop falls on my left cheek. My voice is cracking, and I can feel the bile swelling in my throat, forcing me to cry. I bite down my bottom lip. I don't want to cry. Especially in front of him. His silence is suffocating, and I struggle to breath. He leans closer to me, his hands falling limp at his sides."You don't mean that. You don't mean any of what you just said."His voice is calm and low, but the meaning in his words twists my belly.Because he is right.I look away from him.I really do not me

Luke's hands slide up my shoulders to the back of my neck, his thumb and index finger arching at my chin as he kisses me back with a passion that equals mine. I feel the tip of his tongue teasing along the seam of my bottom lip before it slips into my mouth. I moan when his tongue graze the tip of my own, passing on the minty scent that seems to be rushing in torrents to the back of my brain.I grip his shirt tighter, feeling like I am about to burst into flames here and now. My legs are weak, and I am scared that I may not be able to withstand this sweet torment for long. As if sensing my thoughts, Luke grabs my thighs and lifts me up. My legs wrap around his waist, and I marvel at how my body just clings to his.He turns us around so that my back presses to the wall that was behind him, never breaking our kiss. My arms wrap around his neck for support, and I arch my body to his, feeling his hands as they roughly caress my back. Bolts of electricity zap down my spine, and I moan, lovi

The rest of our classes for the day crawl by like some slimmy lazy snail. Luke didn't come back to class. Reece kept cutting me the 'what the hell is wrong with you' glances, and my eyes kept on patronizing the wall clock in our class like I am its favourite customer.Gosh! I can't wait to go home.__________________"Alicia, wait for me!"My hands clutch tighter to the straps of my bag as I hurry down the staircase leading out of the hallway, ignoring Reece's yell. The bell for school dismissal ringing overhead and throughout the entire school seems to be the best sound to my ears right now."ALICIA!"I finally halt in my tracks, my feet already down on the pavement in front of the staircase. The rest of the students chatter among themselves as they walk past me to head out of the school premises.My eyes instinctively follow them as they head towards the school gate. I scan around for Luke's bike or maybe to check if I can see the blue Jaguar.But as my eyes dart around the gate, I

This is going to be one hell of a very long conversation.A very long conversation that would have been cut short if I had fucking told Reece about my first kiss with Luke a long time ago."See Reece, let me explain everything."I begin."That day, after you left, Luke took me to Bailey's so that we could talk about how to go about the project. He was hungry and so was I. After ordering for some food, we got served and we began to eat. As we ate, Luke proposed that we could try to be friends, even just for the sake of the project, and I agreed.""You agreed?" Reece interrupts."Yeah. That was the only way I could think of at that time to help Luke and I from allowing our dislike for each other to ruin the project. I know it sounds stupid, but even you once blurted out one time about 'how we both can do the project together without ending up killing each other.' I accepted his offer just for the sake of the project, and for my grades."Reece huffs."I know I said that Alicia. But, acce

"What did he say?" Reece asks, her voice giving me a break from my reluctance.Her eyes are filled with so much anticipation and concern that they end up making the decision for me. "He said he wants me more than he has ever wanted anything or anyone in his entire life."Reece recoils back like she's just been bitten by a spider. At least she isn't in as much shock as I was back then that I had to cling my back to the wall behind me for support."He. . . .he said that?" She asks.I nod."Oh my gosh Alicia.""I was confused Reece, but he went on to say he much he needs me, and how he doesn't want to lose me and our friendship and before I knew what I was about to do, I had already done it.""You mean you. . . . .you kissed him?""Yes. And he kissed me back. And he didn't stop. Reece, I couldn't stop myself either. It was the ringing of the bell indicating the end of lunch break that stopped us. I have to leave before I find myself doing something. . . . . . something worse."I swallow
The Badboy's Redemption CHAPTER TWENTY NINE
To stay true to my word, I avoided Luke like a plague the following day.And the next.And well, up until today's evening.I ignored him when he tried to talk to me. I swear I visited the restroom more than a dozen times to ease my bladder because it always got so filled up every damn hour I sat near him in class, feeling my heart banging against my chest.When I stood in front of my locker in the hallway after school dismissal today to grab some notes, I kept my head down when he walked past me. Reece seemed to have noticed my discomfort, because she stopped chatting about how happy she is to attend Camilla's party tonight.It took everything in me not to lift my head up to look at Luke when he walked past me. Or to reach out my hand to him.Now, I am home, back from school.And alone.Sarah is at the hospital now, but before she left the house, she sneaked her silver boots, her makeup bag, and a paper note into my room while I was in the shower, getting freshened for Camilla's party
