After my swimming training, Aiden asked me to meet with him in his apartment, which I did. If I want to forget about what transpired between Ryan and me, then I need to find an alternative.Here, I am, standing in front of my boyfriend's room, he was living in a rented apartment which wasn't far from his college.I knocked on the door, then after a few seconds the door opened, and I stared face to face with my shirtless boyfriend, he looked hot but not as hot as Ryan.'Hailey, get a hold of yourself, no Ryan, remember,' I sighed inwardly while smiling at my boyfriend.“Hey babe,” He greeted, gazing at me.“Hey, “I smiled at him, and he opened the door wider and moved away from the door path for me to get inside.I walked inside dropped my bag on one of the sofa seats and made my way to the kitchen, after getting a glass of water, I walked back into the living room.“How are you doing, Hailey?” He asked, and I nodded at him.“Fine,” I gulped the water and sat beside him.“You've been bu

Ryan's POV.Hailey and I kept on talking, we just had a normal conversation without letting the pull of attraction between us come to light.Now, we were watching the movie and Hailey was sitting pretty close to me, her smell was intoxicating me, but I had to control myself.I've been thinking countlessly about what happened to us at the park, she let me have a taste of her, and she thinks that will be the last of it or just a one-time thing as she puts it.Last my foot…Her head suddenly slip to my shoulder and I lowered my gaze to stare at her and noticed she was asleep.I stared at her more closely, and she looked so, innocent, and peaceful in her sleep.Her chest heaved up and down in a steady manner and her soft pink lips were parted while I felt a slight breath that escaped her lips.I don't know what she did to me, I don't know how she managed to get me wrapped around her fingers.There are times I would want to shut her out of my mind, try to stop thinking about her, I even th

The roaring and rumbling sounds of the thunder and the flashing of light from the lightning scared the shit out of me. It was raining heavily at midnight, no one would be expecting it would fall tonight, and I couldn't get any ounce of sleep.I kept tossing side by side on my bed, everything was frustrating, the thunder roared, and I jolted on my bed, the wheezing sound from the wind made it sound scarier.I dug my fingers into the bedsheets, clutching them tight and mumbling some prayers to myself.Furthermore, I wished I had fallen asleep before the rain started, I wonder how Ryan will be doing in his room, maybe he's asleep while I'm scared as hell here.The thunder rumbled, and it felt like I was having the most horrible nightmare in my life, I've always been the type who freaked out since childhood when the thunder roared and strikes.I couldn't take it anymore, I was already shivering in my bed. I removed the duvets covering my body and jumped to my feet. The cold contact from t

'What was happening?' The shock was written all over my face.Ryan and Brielle kissing? I blinked my eyes severally, telling myself that it was a dream. Then Brielle pulled away from Ryan and giggled at him.“Good morning,” She greeted him, an enticing smile playing on her face.“Good morning,” I heard Ryan greet her and I snapped my gaze at him, my eyes were slightly wide, and I tried to act as if everything were fine.'Did he just smile at her?'He's smiling at her, I stared awkwardly at Ryan who fixed his gaze on Brielle, it seems like he was bound in a spell, or did I wake up on the wrong side of his bed?“Good morning, Hailey,” Brielle turned her gaze to me as she jolted me from my trance, then I forcefully dragged my gaze from Ryan to her.The witch was even smiling and waving at me.“Good morning,” Surprise evident in my voice the way I greeted her.“I have to get to my locker,” I plastered a fake smile on my face and began walking away.'What the hell just happened back there

I was manipulating my phone when my door barged open and Ryan walked, I quickly sprang up from my bed wondering what was going on and why would he enter my room like that.“What do you want, Ryan?” I fired at him, standing up from my bed and wearing my bunny slippers, while he closed the door behind him.“And you can't just come into my room like that. How many times do I have to tell you?” I shot at him annoyingly while he began taking his steps close to me, his eyes studying me like a predator.After, the break incident with Shirley in school, he disappeared for the next class, and I was least unbothered about him.“We need to talk,” He said in a deep voice, his eyes holding some sort of emotions I can't place thoughts on.“About what?” I asked, folding my hands on my chest, scowling my face at him.“Us,” He uttered, and I flapped my eyelashes at him surprisingly.'What does he want to say now?' I thought.'Or is he tired of his little game?' I smirked.“Well, what about us?” I aske
