Chapter 14.3: How to be sick 101
Unlike her parents' room which was on the other side of the house, away from the backyard, the window of her room had the best view of the backyard. The lights around the fence were off, but the light from her room was casting enough light to make out the contents of the garden. Luckily, there was also a full moon tonight that made things easier.The cognac eyes were staring at the darkness behind the fence, at the spot where Midnight usually appeared. As she stared, she fell into deep thoughts, sighing and pouting with the flow of her thoughts, knowing well in her heart that Midnight wouldn't come. It was already almost eleven o'clock and he was nowhere to be seen.Yet, just as she was about to give up and go back to her bed, her eyes caught movement from behind the fence, and sure enough, a dark figure appeared. Her heart hiccupped once when she saw Midnight, then it started to beat fast as if racing against time.Without wasting time, Ryder opened the window and threw the closest th

Chapter 15.1: Midnight's present
Jasmine was convinced that the fever Ryder had on Sunday had fried her brains. There was no other explanation. That girl has been pinching her lips since she and Remy came by for a visit after school to such an extent they looked swollen as if she had made out with...Σ( ° △ °) No! NO!"Did you kiss Midnight?"Ryder, who had been staring at the TV "watching" the movie she opened for Jasmine and Remy, was so startled by Jasmine's accusations that she started choking on her saliva. Her face turned so red she looked like she would start dripping blood. This reaction didn't settle well with Jasmine who didn't know how to react to such a situation. Be angry? Disappointed? Congratulate her? In the end, she jumped on her like an angry kitten.Ryder and Remy were both sitting on the sofa while Jasmine sat on the floor between them. When she jumped on Ryder, Remy very skillfully grabbed the bowl of popcorn that was on the sofa between him and Ryder and sat on the armchair, undisturbed without e

Chapter 15.2: Midnight's present
Remy looked at Aiden with a bored expression, one hand holding the bowl of popcorn, the other grabbing a handful of it and stuffing it in his mouth. "What do you want?"Aiden almost snapped right then. With his face twitching and twisting, his usually calm expression finally cracking, he glared at Remy. What was this freak doing in Ryder's house?He didn't want to believe the reality of him having to ask this freak about his girlfriend in his girlfriend's house. "Is Ryder home?" It took all of his self-control not to shove Remy away and stomp his way into the house."Why do you need her?" Remy was just simply too bored. He had heard of the rumors of Aiden dating Ryder, but he also knew about Midnight. He had seen Ryder's eyes sparkling when talking about him to Jasmine, and he had just confirmed how Ryder felt about Midnight. Aiden was just causing trouble for no reason, so of course, Remy didn't have a good impression of Aiden. Actually, he never had a good impression of him. It's not

Chapter 16.1: Payback
Aiden had been acting quite... cold... lately. He has always seemed to be in a bad mood and a few times Ryder caught him staring at her with a rather strange look in his eyes as if he was holding a grudge... as if he was waiting for Ryder to do something... But Ryder had no idea what he wanted. Why couldn't he just simply tell her what's the matter? She really couldn't recall how she might have upset him. These looks he was giving her only made Ryder uncomfortable and rush to hide her face behind Jasmine to escape that line of sight that seems to be glaring daggers at her. This went on for quite a while. Aiden would always approach to talk to Ryder, but after a few minutes his eyes filled with annoyance and he would make some excuse and leave. Ryder was seeing a side of Aiden that she had never seen before and that side only confused her more. What was his problem? While they were sitting in the cafeteria, Remy and Jasmine side by side and Ryder in front of them, the latter after alm

Chapter 16.2: Payback
That night, like every other night, Midnight came to her room. Since she got sick, their meeting location changed from the garden to Ryder's room. It was getting colder with every passing day and it wasn't convenient to stay outside in that cold at such late hours. How could Ryder even explain herself to her parents? So the two of them came to an agreement. If Ryder wasn't out in the garden, Midnight would immediately come to her room, which has been the case so far.The lights in the room were off, except for the desk lamp that cast a dim white light in the corner of the room. Sitting on her bed, Ryder had opened her laptop. As Midnight jumped inside, closing the window behind him, she stole a glance, cheeks reddening slightly before she looked at the laptop screen again. Midnight sat by her side, kicking his sneakers off and covering himself in her blanket shivering."Brrr.... It's so cold outside."Ryder smiled. She tossed the laptop away and grabbed both of Midnight's freezing hand

Chapter 17.1: Attack and retreat
Midnight looked at Ryder and just didn't know how to deal with this girl anymore. How can she come to such a conclusion after two barely muttered words from him? How can she even do that? Is that even doable? What is this? A Sherlock Holmes episode? I didn't sign up for this, okay? "I... I didn't say that." Midnight fought the urge to rub the spot between his eyebrows. The way Ry's brain works is out of this world. Ryder wasn't willing to let go of this. After such a long time, she finally got another hint. How could she be willing? Instead, she was beaming, grinning like an enthusiastic idiot. She was kneeling on the bed in front of Midnight, her hands grabbing his arms as she brought her face closer to his, failing to notice how close their faces were. But Midnight certainly didn't fail. He was very aware of that proximity. "You said that. You did. You can't lie to me." She wasn't even controlling her voice, which only made Midnight panic even more. At this point, he didn't know w

Chapter 17.2: Attack and retreat
Midnight laughed again, but as his laughter died slowly and silence filled the room, his breathing slowed down and Ryder heard his sigh. "I don't want to lose this..."The heart in her chest skipped a bit as Ryder tried to push herself off Midnight to take a look at him, but the arms around her didn't let her move. Instead, one hand wrapped tighter around her waist as the other hand rested on the back of her head, keeping her face pressed against the warm chest of Midnight where Ryder heard for the first time his heartbeat.Strange feelings filled her heart upon hearing the rhythmic heartbeat of the young man."Are you going to leave me when you find out who I am?" The voice was sad and almost trembled in the end. Ryder tried again to push herself off Midnight, unable to resist the urge to look at him but Midnight tightened the grip on her and rested his cheek on top of her head."No." She replied softly. "I won't leave you.""Do you promise me?" The voice broke into a choked sob that

Chapter 18.1: PA!
"No!" The voice saying that one word was powerful, filled with determination and hints of impatience and rage. No one could change his mind. Sadly... no one was asking for Aiden's opinion."But I haven't seen you play for years." His father said with a sigh, almost sounding as if he was whining. The voice makes Aiden even more unshaken by his decision. As if he would allow himself to get embarrassed in front of the entire school. "Even Jeremy is coming."Hearing this, Aiden had the sudden urge to end his existence and play ghost. Why are you saying that as if it would make things any better?!! "ABSOLUTELY, NO!"Mathew, his father stared at his son and bit his lip in order not to smack the back of his head and accidentally smack out that little brain he had left in that thick skull of his. Instead, a low humorless chuckle vibrated from his throat as he shook his head slowly, a dangerous aurora radiating from him. "Boy." One word made Aiden freeze. That tone was used only on one occasion

Chapter 18.2: PA!
The game was being held in the gym which, much to Ryder's surprise, was pretty packed. A lot of people had come, chatting and laughing, their voices filling the spacious place like buzzing bees. Since she didn't come to such events, Ryder didn't have any way of knowing that the gym was this packed pretty much every time there was a match. All the noise was a bit overwhelming and for sure it would get worse when the game started.Unlike Ryder who couldn't find it fun to watch several guys tossing and running after a ball, Jasmine was quite excited. Even though she wasn't a hardcore fan of any sports, in particular, she enjoyed watching basketball, volleyball, football, soccer, baseball games... as long as she knew the rules and could understand what was going on, she would enjoy the match a lot. As for with which team she was, Jasmine preferred to play Switzerland in WWII. However in this game... since it's Aiden playing, she would definitely be with the other team out of spite.There w

Chapter 19.1: Ryder, Aiden's girlfriend
For someone who didn't particularly like crowded places or sports, Ryder was bored out of her mind to the point she had put on her headphones listening to music while searching online on how to make a Mad Hatter hat. She had truly tried to focus on the game but after a while, it was getting quite boring.Of course, that wasn't the case for Jasmine. That Momma bear had quite some lungs. She seemed to be enjoying the game a lot. Given the fact that she had decided from the beginning that she would be with the team from the other school just because of spite, she had seized this opportunity to indirectly bully Aiden. Jasmine couldn't just start cheering for the other team with everyone from her school there. After all, even though she wasn't famous or whatever, she had quite the reputation and a lot of people knew her. So she could only yell at Aiden all sorts of things."Pass the ball! Pass the ball! DO YOU EVEN KNOW HOW TO PLAY?!!"Aiden who is the captain of the team "...""What the he
