Chapter One

The boy I've been warned about just looked at me like he knew what I did.

Two seconds. That's how long he stared. Long enough for my spine to remember it's breakable, and my lungs to tangle like I'm addicted to smoking.
I guess I didn't run far enough.

The third Arlow son, with a face set in permanent indifference, had noticed me on my fourth day of school. He doesn't smile or frown at meโ€”just stares...but that was enough to make the hair on the back of my neck render a standing ovation.

It's difficult to picture him with a smile. I'm sure his smile would be scarier than a scowl from Thanos. Or maybe he doesn't smile at all. He doesn't even need to be next to you to make your stomach do a backflip, not in a cute way.

And for a second, I saw the numbers clicking behind his eyes. I duck my head before I can do something stupid. Like freeze. Or worse, stare back.

It's loud in here. The way schools get when nobody wants to go to class but everyone wants to be seen. Laughter buzzes behind lockers. Perfume fights with sweat. Sneakers squeak. A boy shouts something crude across the hall.

And somewhere in the noise, I hear itโ€”

"Isn't that the girl who..." I don't stop to listen. I just keep walking.

I really did not run far enough. Is this going to be my life now? They don't know anything.
It might not be the same school, but it's the same city, and the same words and shadows still plague me. I chose this place because it was supposed to be quieter. that's what Dad promised me.

"This school is perfect for you, Mandy. Nice environment, with kids who don't care enough to ask." He would've said anything to make me agree. I should've known.

But what really makes everything worse is the fact that no one thought to mention he went here too.
Kade Arlow. It only took a few days here to figure out he's the reason half the school flinches when his name comes up.

The boy who never fights fair. The boy whose sister jumped. The boy who lives for revenge. That's what people whisper about him behind his back. I almost want to sympathize with him since we share something in common, except he's never looked at me like that, not in the impromptu, sporadic moments we've crossed paths.

Not until today.

I reach my locker and fumble with the code. My hands are shaking. Stupid. I'm not supposed to care. He's just a guy. He doesn't know.

"You good?"

The voice comes from behind me. It's soft and familiar. I force myself to breathe and smile like I've got everything under control.

"Yeah. First-week jitters, I guess."

It's Jamie. My new almost-friend. We met in Chem on my first day, and he doesn't seem to mind my grump since he's obviously still sticking around. He's the kind of guy who throws his hands up at every question because he can't help it...but gets half wrong because he doesn't want to appear too smart.

His white shirt tucked beneath his faded blue jeans, hugging his waist and making him look too apathetic to be this friendly. He doesn't ask more questions. Just nods and pulls out his phone.

Kade's still standing there when I glance back down the hallway. Still watching like an owl. And then he turns and walks straight toward me.

My breath stops, but I can't look away. He doesn't look left or right. Doesn't even blink. Like I'm the only person here worth destroying.

"Don't," Jamie says under his breath. "Just ignore him."
Easy for you to say. He's not hunting you. I want to say it, but I don't.

"Hey," Kade says when he stops in front of me. The malice in his eyes does not shift. His cold voice slides under my skin like a cold needle.

I don't respond to his greeting.

He leans in just slightly, enough for his shadow to fall across my chest. Then he says, "You were there. Weren't you?"
I freeze.

I should be scrambling for answers or saying something random, even if it's stupid. Anything would be better than freezing. Anything would be less suspicious. But nothing's coming to me.

And in that exact moment, I know he's confirmed his suspicions. Not entirely. But enough to throw me under the bus.

"Sorry," I lie. "You've got the wrong person."
He stays still for what seems like an eternity, but in reality, it's just a few seconds. Then he tilts his head again, like he's watching something bleed.

Then he whispers to me, like Jamie wasn't right next to him...

"We'll see." Finally, he walks away and out of sight. It takes a few seconds for my heartbeat to return to a more reliable rate.

Giving my blank mind the space to curates heavy thoughts that all come crashing down on me at once.
I had lied to the boy who's hunting his sister's killer... and I think he just recognized the scent of guilt on my skin.

Darrell's P.O.V ๐Ÿงธ๐ŸŽ€
It's been half an hour after dinner and my mom wouldn't stop lecturing me about the benefits of literacy, Darren ratted me out to mom about me skipping school and she was livid, now she keeps telling me how stupid I was for not only skipping school but also doing it for a girl, "mom, I already told you before,I am already familiar with what they are doing here, I check their curriculum here, and I'm far ahead of them, this semester as a whole is a repeat of what we've done back in feast high" I defended "so what,what's wrong with a little revision huh?, why isn't Darren skipping school too then" she fired back "ion know, that's her choice mom" I echoed she rubbed he temples slowly, "do you have any idea how hard we work to get you in school... who the hell is this girl anyway " she hissed, I kept quite and looked away, which seemed to infuriate her the more "I said who is she" she yelled again "she's a friend "
"You've barely known this girl for a week, and you've already started skipping school, what has gotten into you son, you've never missed school before, why now and for some..... stupid girl " she cussed and that made my heart chest tighten "she's not stupid mom" I defended she looked at me like an angry bull "and now you talk back at me... wow.... let's see what your dad thinks about that " she spat and walked away, I stumped back to my room and shot the door hard.
Hours later I was called Mishka and after a few Rings she picked up, I got her number while we were talking at the lake, I have no idea why I'm calling her right now, she's just in my head, she's literally All I think about, and deep down I knew I wasn't going to settle for mere friendship, I wanted more than that, there was something about her that was pulling me to her, honestly I have no idea of what to say to her right,
"Hello, are you there" I heard from the other than line which snapped me back to reality, s**t
"Hey, hi, he..llo, umm it's Darrell " I said with as I did a facepalm wtf was that about, I don't remember ever being nervous for a girl, dammit girls back at Newyork trip for me, I literally got every single girl I wanted without stress, I'm that confident hot dude every girl wants, but her, she's different, at first she pushed me, ME away, and now I'm stuttering, what the hell Darrell, wow, I have to get my head in the game,
"Oh, yeah, what's up Dee"
She spoke
"Dee, seriously, lol, ion think Darrell should be shortened, sounds horrible " I laughed she did too
"Oh yeah, I don't think so, it's perfect " she said
"No its not, no one will want to be called that"
"Uh uh, I'll call you Dee, whether you like it or not" she insisted
"Great, you're pretty and stubborn"
"You bet" she laughed hysterically
"Umm, you feeling better now' right " I asked
"Yeah, thanks" her voice was now low
"Cool, wanted to check on you"
"Thanks alot, means alot,......'mish, honey who are you talking to ' I heard from the background
"Ummmm, I gotta go, see you tomorrow dee" she muttered and hung up before I could reply, I sighed heavily and laid on my back staring at the ceiling, i thought of mishka and a big grin touched my lips, she's really something.
I jogged downstairs towards the kitchen but stopped at my parents room when I heard my name, I got closer to the door, peeking through the slightly opened space, "his a teenager Tess, you're making a big deal out of nothing " dad said as he went and sat on the bed while mom stood, "I don't think you understand what's going on, darrell talked back at me because of this strange girl, which has never happened before, and you think it's nothing " she squealed "yeah" he simply replied she groaned and got in bed bed next to him "wait until he talks back at you too, then we'll see" she hissed pulling the duvet over her shoulders, dad shook his head and laid down turning off the lights,
"Pheeeew well that went well" I cheered and made my way to the kitchen, I opened the fridge and took Darren's cupcake, there was literally a not on the cup that says, Darren's property DO NOT TOUCH I smirked and devoured the delicious cake, gulping down a glass of juice I scurried back to my room before I got caught.

I woke up to a loud scream, I jumped out of bed and hurried down stairs, everyone stood by the kitchen, when I got there I saw Darren throwing a temper tantrum, "Its gone, my my cupcake is gone" she cried dramatically i rolled my eyes, gosh, "who, who took my cupcake " she squeaked as tears ran down her cheek, I smirked and leaned against the door.
"Honey, I was the last to leave this kitchen last night and I assure you that no one came here " mom countered, Darren wasn't convinced "then where is it mom, did you..."
"No, no of course not baby, i wouldn't" she slowly gazed at everyone's faces, when her gaze landed on me I turned to leave "Darrell wait" I stopped and turned around with confidence, she walked closer with a suspicious look, she got closer staring at me, then down to my body, "is this my vanilla frosting Darrell " I looked down at my shirt where there was a huge stain of vanilla frosting, Bursted, "nooo, its just uhhhh a vanilla frosting of ...ummmm ...another cake... definitely not yours sis, so... ahhh... I better go get ready for school"
I lied and walked away she let out a loud squeal, she threw a a flower vase at me, thank goodness I ducked in time, "ill get you back for this" she yelled, I sniggered and got into my room, and started preparing for school.

MISHKA'S POV ๐Ÿงธ๐ŸŽ€
I waited patiently at the parking lot, finally the blue ferrari arrived,I knew very well who it belonged to,I rushed over to it,there she was majestically hopping out of her fancy car,she walked over to me,I sighed this is it we are finally going to reconcile, I put on my best smile as sh got closer "Hey bes..."she walked past me without a second thought,what the hell...what just freaking happened,did my best friend just ghost me,I didn't realise our fight was this serious,I turned around in a flash, "hey am really sorry about yesterday I know it wasn't fair,I didn't mean to be rude shira I promise"to my surprise she didn't reply,just walked away like I wasn't talking to her,I felt invisible,but mostly heartbroken and sad,shira had never kept groggies that lasted an hour so believe me this felt entirely strange.

"Y'all did terrible in your test,I won't say all though,but 80% of you can and will be labelled as 'all' as your chemistry teacher I am majorly disappointed,this test was supposed to be the last test for this semester but a hand full of you did miserably,to say the least you all have a 50/50 chance of resitting for this semester,and wouldn't want that now would we? "Mr emmanuel gushed pushing his spectacles against the bridge of his nose,must of the class shook their head in response,"good,now am assigning a project to you all,it more of creativity than research,although you might have the urge to skip this one little project,but trust me you don't wanna,like I said before, this project will be assigned to you,to boost your grades in other to avoid resitting this semester,I will let you all on the details later,I will group you all now"......... "Marcia and Jordan"
"Laura and ace"
"Stephanie and roddy"
"Crist and mira"
"Carlos and Michelle" Mr emmanuel went on and on and on with the names I silently prayed to be group with shira,
"Tyler and Marvin"
I was getting excited since it was me,her,darrel,his sister and nomani left,I hope luck is on my side.
"Darrel stick with your sister for the sake that you guys are new here wouldn't want to peer you up with a stranger for now" Mr emmanuel smiled gracefully,darrel just shrugged,I was already getting excited,smiling sweetly at the sensible man,he is now my new favourite teacher.
"Shira and......."I was getting way to excited than I thought,I will finally makeup with my best friend,thank goodness.
"Nomani" what the freaking pinata, my mouth fell upon, gosh,this man is delusional,"crap,mishka you don't have a partner,ummmm,amma peer you up with Darrell and his sister I see you are familiar with them,great that all now" he finished I did a mental face palm,great, I'm familiar with them but I'm not with shira, his just plain stupid, arrrgh, I hate this..........
The bell rang,and the students rushed out,I noticed shira stalked out,I was about to follow her when I had my name,I turned around to see darrell approaching me with a smile,I smiled back,and watch him walk closer "Hey mish" he muttered "Hi Dee" I smiled, he chuckled and shook his head "again with this name" he laughed,I grinned innocently, "you act like you don't love it" I droned "I don't honestly" he replied with a small laugh. "Too bad you have to get use to it though"
"Whatever,about the project,is it at my place on your place" he asked,what the freaking mangos,this is it,I finally find the perfect opportunity to leave the house, this is sooooo great, "your place" I said a bit more desperately than I intended too, he gave he a weird look, before shrugging his shoulders "ummmm, ok, cool" he replied "ill text you my address " he droned I noticed shira walked pass, I too short steps approaching her when I recalled I was still with Darrell, "ooh, yeah, sure" I said and hurried out, i couldn't find shira in the anywhere, it's like she disappeared, then I noticed her troop into the bathroom, I smiled, here goes nothing, I followed her into the bathroom and found her washing her hands In the sink, while staring at her reflection on the mirror, I took a deep breath and stalked forward, "Hey" she looked at me through the mirror and didn't answer, but I continued anyways "look shira, I'm really sorry, I know I was" she shoved her palm in my face, in a stop sign gesture, she slowly shook her head then turn to me, "you don't get it do you" she paused and stared for a few seconds then continued, "I don't want anything to do with you anymore, I don't care about you and I don't want to 'pretend ' anymore, so please mishka, don't ever come anywhere close to me again, don't" she spat, my heart beat sped up and I went pale, we've fought alot all our years of being friends but this, I literally have no idea what is going on, I'm dumbfounded, I blinked twice as I watched her pick up her phone and brushed past me, I wasn't going to give up, I know she's just upset that I shouted at her in front of everyone but it wasn't intentional, I twirled and followed her, she was heading to the cafeteria and the hall way was half empty, "Hey, hey, shira" I gently grabbed her shoulders as she refused to stop, she grabbed my hand and shoved it, I somehow lost my balance and was sent crashing to the ground, no pain, no crashing sounds, no hard surface felt, someone caught me, how, I was pit back on my feet, I could see regret in shira's eyes, but it transformed back to anger and hatred, I turned to look at my saviour and it was him, Tyler, he save me from a broken nose, "what is the matter with you shira" he yelled as students gathered around, she glared at her like he was going to hit her, "ooooh, you're going to take her side now" she spat, he rubbed his temples and stared at his little sister, "she could have been hurt" he yelled with a death glare, "Tyler, its OK, no need to yell" I tried easing the tension, those brats were already laughing and recording on their phones, jerks "yeah right, she means nothing to me, and I'm your sister, so stop yelling at me for this b***h"she hissed with her eyes blood shot, what the f**k did she really just call me that........

๐Ÿ“šโ™ฃ๏ธ CHAPTER FOUR โ™ฃ๏ธ๐Ÿ“š

I stared into his green beautiful eyes, he looked into mine, he said something but I did'nt get what he said, I was on my way to cloud nine, "Don't you need help" he said more audible, I nodded, "then move aside cutie" he bit his lips, "oh, sorry" I moved aside, embarrassment floods my face, s**t, what was I thinking, I really need to stop watching cartoons, this is the f**King real world, he took a glass without any stress "here" he handed it to me, "thanks" I muttered looking everywhere but him, he shot my one last dashing smile and walked out,God...... my heart was beating hard against my chest, I drank a glass of water and went back upstairs...

I pushed the door open and got in, I headed upstairs hopefully they aren't home yet, it was 3 mins pass 6, they should be home by now, maybe their in their rooms, "what's up couz" I heard Christopher say from the sitting room, busted! I walked over to him, he laid on the couch typing away on his phone, I sat next to him, "Hey chris" I smiled, he didn't look up from his phone, rude.. "yo, where are you coming from" he asked as he sat up, "Non of your business " I droned, he furrowed his brows and shrugged, "my bad, just wanted to know what's up with my favourite cousin" he said and I rolled my eyes, "yeah right," I got up from the couch and made my way out of the sitting room, "love that shirt couz" he implored I laughed it off and went up to my room, I took a warm bath and felt really relaxed, I stayed in the tub for a while And felt really drowsy.....
A loud knock came on my door and I was yanked away from dream world, dammit I fell asleep in the tub, I got up, showered and tied a towel around my chest, I rushed to the door and opened up, my mom stood there, I gave her a quizzical look and she shrugged, "honey, we need to talk" she hollered "sure mom, just give me a minute " I quickly got into my closet and dressed up in my nighties, I got back into the room and stalked towards mom who sat on my bed, "is everything OK " I asked, she nodded with a sigh "Mishka, what is this about you staying out late," I frowned automatically and tried not to roll my eyes "mom, what is this about, I didn't see anyone here when I got back, I didn't want to stay cooped up in here like some prisoners so I stepped out, what's the big deal" I droned, her brows touch "oh really, I already told you that I don't want you leaving the house" she said, I felt my blood boil, was she serious, I'm not a child "but why mom" I asked she stared at me for a while, she wanted to say something but she stopped herself, she sighed deeply, "mish, you're to young to understand "
"Mom,I'm 16, I'm not you're little child anymore "
"Just, Don't leave the house Mishka, if you must, I have to get full details on where,why, and when you're going " she ordered I just shrugged My shoulders "got it?" I nodded, she finally dropped the serious face and pat my shoulders with a small smile "common, it's time for dinner, it's your favourite " she said, I smiled and we went down stairs to eat....
I got ready for school, I looked at the mirror one last time, I wore a green tank top, black jeans, white snickers with green horizontal stripes, my makeup was light and my hair had a simple style, I loved what I was seeing, I picked up my bag and walked out, I got downstairs and they were
All eating at the dining table, "good morning mom, good morning boys" I greeted all at once, with they replied noisily, I smiled and picked a banana from the tray and headed out, "wait young lady " I stopped in my tracks and turned around "yes mom" I answered "aren't you gonna eat breakfast?" I shook my head "nahhh, I'm good" I made my way to leave but she stopped me again "here, I packed you some food" she gave me a food bag, I didn't want to argue so I took it "Thanks mom" I was leaving when she called again "it's kinda chilly outside, won't you put on you're jacket" she said, "I have one in my bag, don't worry, I'll put them on if I feel the need to" I replied she shrugged "do you plan on walking to school " she asked picking up her keys "shira is picking me up" I smiled she looked a little bit disappointed but she smiled back, "OK fine, be back soon" I nodded and walked out.

On our ride to school, I tried to figure out what was up with mom, but I just didn't get it, ever since my dad walked out on us, she had never remained the same, she works day and night, she never has anytime for us, just works all the time,we use to be inseparable when dad was here, but now she doesn't even know the first thing about me, and it crushes me, things are moving too fast, and she is too, I tried to talk to her about it a few times but she never pays attention anymore and you think I'm probably use to it by now but honestly, it hurts, it hurts alot, and I hope she'll figure it out soon, before it's too "Hey, are you OK,you look a little distracted " shira said yanking me out of my thoughts, with one of her hand on my shoulder as she controlled the wheels with the other, "yeah ....I'm fine" I said she gave my shoulder a small squeeze "you can talk to me mish, you know that right " I sighed "I'm ok shira, thanks" I said, which was obviously a lie, I was far from ok, I was the opposite of ok, I was not ok, I wanted to scream my frustrations out, but I couldn't more like I shouldn't, if only my father Didn't leave.........
Shira drove into the space at the parking lot, we got off and headed for the school building, honestly what I wanted was to be alone at home for as long as I could, right now I felt really helpless and depressed, just comparing our status quo then and now makes me feel worst, everything changed so fast, I walked straight into someone unconsciously, but I was pulled away by shira, the girl who I almost bumped into glared at me muttering some curse words, I looked at her apologetically "I'm sorry" I said as she walked away, "Hey, you look really off, are you sure you're OK?" She asked again, again with this, I thought we've had this discussion, why is she being extra annoying this morning, can't she just quit the stupid motherly act, I felt her hand on my shoulder and I lost it, "let go off me, what's wrong with you, I told you before that I was ok, stop acting like you care and drop the stupid act shira" I yelled she looked at me with shocked, I regretted those words immediately, she looked hurt, and I could see I had rendered her speechless, what was wrong with me, students were already staring at us, most of them whispering adrenaline rushed through my body, "what is this about, you think I'm pretending, where is all this coming from Mish" she replied with the same tone, "just, just leave me alone" I said and ran into the school building, the stares were intense but I did'nt care, i found my self strolling through the surface of the lake, behind the school, this was my getaway, it was my most favourite place whenever I wanted to be alone, only one person has been here with me, and that was shira, she knew I would always come here if I was sad, but I doubt if she'll come look for me, you know after our fight, i felt terrible for saying those horrible things to her, I really didn't mean too, my eyes water and tears fall from my eyes, which made me feel worse about myself, I was such a weakling, and that broke me....
My head was still buried on my legs when I head some ruffling sounds, I ignored it thinking it must be birds on the trees or something, but it kept getting louder and I knew it was a person, the footsteps got closer and finally sat next to me, I already figured out that it must be shira, so I didn't bother getting up, I thought of how to apologise, but didn't say a word, I didn't want to bring my head up since my eyes was probably swollen for crying so much, but weirdly she didn't say anything, maybe she was waiting for my apology, I mean I was the one in the wrong, but she pushed me though,..... nahhh, I think it was my fault not hers, I finally lifted my head up, "look I'm really...... " I stopped when I saw someone who was definitely not shira staring at me, "you, what .. are .. you doing here" I stuttered a bit "I saw you run through the hallway and I followed to see if you were ok" he said with a concern look, did I look that miserable that everyone knows I'm not ok, "well I'm ok, please leave me alone, you shouldn't be here " I droned he smirked " you shouldn't be here either " he hollered, I stared at him to read his expression, but I could only see mixed emotions, I looked away, now staring at the beautiful lake, "you know, I also love the lake so much, it reminds me of my mom" he smiled I looked at him "is she?..." I asked "oh, no no no, she's still very much alive, I meant, she always tell us stories about lakes, magical,supernatural and special beings love the lake," he looked at me as he finished his sentence, I couldn't help but smile, I was feeling a little bit better than I felt some minutes ago "well, she sounds like a great mom" I countered, he sniggered, "yeah, she is, although she'd mostly say stuff like, 'you're so irresponsible Darrell, you can't do anything yourself and you always smell terribly like a pig" he mimicked in a squeaky voice which made me laugh hard, "well, you don't smell bad at all ...right now" I said and he smiled and mouthed a thank you.
I felt really safe and secured sitting next to him, I leaned my head on his shoulders as we talked for hours, joking about random stuff, talked about our favourite movies and it turned out we had alot in common,
"So, mind telling me what's bothering you " he cajoled I stared at him for a while then sighed, "its my mom" I told him everything and he went silent as if processing everything, "you know" he started "it's not her fault she's being distant, and she's not really completely being distant, maybe you are too" he said I looked at him quizzically he chuckled, he grabbed my hand "common we should head Back, school should be over by now" my eyes bug out, I checked my phone and it was 6 mins past 2:00 what the freaking tomatoes, we spent seven whole hours talking, how is that even possible, no wonder I've been so hungry, we got off the ground and headed back to the school...
The school building was half empty,I turned to Darrell who was still holding my hands "I'm really sorry you missed school because of me" I said looking at the ground with guilt "what, tskk no way, I didn't do it because of you, I needed an excuse to skip classes, we're wayyy ahead of you guys in my old school " she droned with made me me smile a bit, watching him act like he doesn't care was cute, but I knew better, "oooh Darrell, you're in so much trouble " a girl appeared and my jaw fell, she looked exactly like Darrell, except for her eye colour, wow "what are you talking about Darren " she replied she smirked "wait till we get home" with that she walked off, that was kinda rude, she acted like I wasn't standing right next to her brother, "sorry about that, that's my sister Darren " he said I smiled, "I should leave now " he said "yeah me too, thanks for today, I really needed that " I confessed "the name is mishka by the way" I finally introduce he laughed "I knew that already, asked a couple of students, you're quite popular here" he praised I just shrugged "I suggest you hold on to that popularity tightly because amma sn**ch it away soon" he laughed "or we could be both popular " I held his second hand and looked up at his beautiful face "na, I'm selfish, I don't share" he said, his hand trailed to my waist, I felt a shiver, "I like that" my eyes closed as I waited him him to make the move, honk honk honk "the sound of the car broke us apart and I felt mad for not kissing him earlier, his sister was in the car glaring daggers at us, "bye, ill see you tomorrow " he smiled and walked away......
I took a cab home, when I arrived I wasn't ready for what I saw

I picked up my books from my locker, slaming it shot,shira's face popped up, "heyyyyyy besty" she droned I rolled my eyes and leaned on the locker "talk" I countered she frowned and guilt skates through her face, "Hey, I'm really sorry about yesterday, I swear I didn't mean to leave you waiting I promise " she pleaded I looked at her with no remorse and didn't want to act paranoid, "you ditched me completely yesterday, leaving me stranded out there,do you have any idea how much trouble I would have gotten into if my brothers found out that I lied about my whereabouts " it was already too late to compose because I was entertaining anger by then, "I know and I'm sorry, something came up and I couldn't leave the house, I tried to call you but your number wasn't reachable " she added, I scoffed and looked away, I didn't want to make eye contact with her pleading eyes, "please forgive me mish, " she continued, I sighed taking my time to decide when she spoke again, "I got you lunchhhh" she waved a food bag at my face with a small smile, a gentle smile touched my lips, "its your favorite " my smile grew wider as I bit my lips "Fine, I forgive you " I said, besidesit isn't totally her fault, my cell phonewas dead, thank goodnessmom gave me back my charger, "yayyyy" she rejoiced with a genuine grin, "Thanks bestie " I nodded, "OK, now for the big exciting surprise, guess what " she chirped, ummmmmmmmmmmm what could it be, "you won a lottery " I guessed clueless she chuckle and shook her head, "No, you know about Ivan Shane's last show on Friday night right " she asked enthusiastically I nodded with furrowed brows she let out a long excited squeak, "I've got two tickets for both of us" she screamed getting almost all the attention of students in the hall way, I rejoiced too, and we did our happy dance regardless of the stares we got, who cares about stares when they are with their best friends, definitely not me, I can't wait.......

I walked out of class, when I got a text from zelda 'meet me behind your school cafeteria, we need to talk' what the hell was this about, I bumped into something hard, I dropped my phone, "what the hell, watch where you're...." I paused when I looked up to see "you!" I frowned "what the f**k are you doing here, are you stalking me" I hollered he scoffed with an eye roll, "and why would I do that " he questioned looking calm and gentle as always which was was really kinda cute, I brushed off the foolish thoughts and picked up my phone "whatever" I shoved him off and was about to leave when he held my arm, there was this electric spark I felt as his hand touched mine, I turned and looked at him, my heart started to beat fast, what is the matter with me, he let go of my arm and looked away, "look, just wanted to say sorry for making you feel uncomfortable yesterday " he apologised with both his hands now in his pocket, I don't know why but I blushed "I shouldn't have tried to force you into taking the f**King ice cream, it was inappropriate I'm sorry " he added,I found myself smiling at him, he furrowed his brows and I composed myself, "it cool" I muttered wryly, trying to make a serious expression which worked because he looked less relaxed, "So we cool" he stretched out his hand I nodded "yeah, we're cool" I shook his hand, as my cheek turned bright pink, "pheeeew that's a relief, wouldn't want you telling all this hot girls I'm a jerk, it will definitely make it a bit harder to get a hot girl to date" I frowned at his level was thinking as I glared at him, was that why he apologised, arrgh boys are the worst, I was about to leave when "Hey, I've been looking for you everywhere " shira appeared out of no where, I wanted to say something but she beat me to it, "ooooooow who's your hot new friend " she asked with a smirk staring at Darrell "his not my friend " I said eyeing him, he scoffed "sure.. I'm darrel" he introduced "I'm shira, her best friend, nice to meet you darrel" she but her lips as the shook hands, pathetic, I rolled my eyes again, I hope they don't fall out,...
"Hey, darrel right " Miss emelda our principal who was really young and super hot showed up, darrel nodded with a smile, "I see you're making friends already " we all smiled as she looked at us, " I was gonna assign someone to show you around, but I think your new friend can take care of that ?" She asked I turned to walk away when he grabbed my shoulder, the f**k is his problem, "actually miss,she just offered to do that for me" what the, is this dude for real, s**t, "No I did not" I protested "yez you did" he smiled innocently at miss emelda "oh really, that's nice, with that taking of, you should be just fine" she tapped his shoulder gently and walked off.
After the exhausting tour around the school, I turned to Darrell with tired eyes, "Great, that's everywhere " I said walking off, "see ya" he called out, I hope I don't have to see you again, shira had to leave for her band practice leaving just me and that jerk, he made me repeat one thing like a hundred times, my jaw literally hurts from talking too much, lunch break was almost up, all thanks to Darrell, I had a bunch of missed calls from zelda and texts,
"Mishka, where are you "
"Hey, I'm exhausted are you coming or what"
"Dude, I'm waiting "
"F**k, mish "
Great, now I have zelda to worry about, can today get any worst, I took out my lunch bag, I got into the library and ate, o don't need any more drama today.......
After the dismising Bell rang, I took off heading to the school exit, "Mishka " I heard someone call out, I turned around to see zelda walking towards me, swinging her lips left and right, I took a deep breath, here we go, "what the hell mish, why weren't you picking my calls or replying any of my text" she half yelled, I gave her a quizzical look, "why, what do you want zee" she started fanning her face dramatically with a "sad" expression, "its micah, he just broke up with me this morning, out of no where, and I have no idea why, please mish, I beg you, talk to him for me,please, you know how much I love him mish" I rolled my eyes at her "this is your 7th breakup this year, what is wrong with both of you " I steered she broke into dramatic tears as she held my arm with pleading eyes "mish please tell me the truth, is micah cheating on me " I shook my head, micah loves her as much as she loves him, and I Really hate the fact that she's bringing me into their relationship, I mean I have nothing to do with their stupid love life, so why is she dragging me in now, I gently took my arm off hers, "he wouldn't even pick my calls" tears gathered in her eyes and I truly felt sorry for her, I path her back "Don't worry everything will be fine" I smiled, she wiped her face and walked away, I can't believe she would come to my school just to beg for my help with her boyfriend, jeez people are weird and desperate for love, I would never!
I walked Into the house but it was quite and felt empty, what was going on, was I home alone, I rushed upstairs and had a quick shower, I put on a rainbow coloured crop top and gray sweats, I wore comfy black pams, tie my hair in a pony,applied light makeup, grabbed my phone and went down stairs, I got to the kitchen, i checked the fridge, it was half full, grabbing an apple I head out.
I rang the door bell again, the door clicked open revealing Tyler, shira's elder brother, he was a year older than shira, and his the hottest in school, girls go crazy for him, his that handsome cool jock that evey girls wish for, and I have to admit, I hard a little crush on him, I mean who wouldn't, he has v shaped face, green shiny eyes, straight nose,red lips, long black afro mane, which was packed in a pony, sharp jawline, fair skin, tall, smart, funny, who wouldn't crush on him, he is PERFECT.
"Hey mish" he smiled showing off his straight white teeth, the butterflies in my tummy went crazy, "Hi, is .. miska in" I managed to say, he nodded, he created space for me to pass, and I did, "shira, mishka is here" he half yelled, soon shira came running down the stairs, "Hey girl, what's up" she muttered I just smiled as I noticed Tyler staring at me, "are your parents in" I whispered, she furrowed her brows at me, "No, why" she asked, "nothing, I said" she smiled "oohk let's go to my room, I was watching a movie " we both went upstairs and weirdly I noticed that Tyler was stealing glances at me, could it be possible that he likes me too, lol, I don't think so, I'm probably not his type...
I were watching a movie, it was a love movie, about a pauper girl who fell in love with a wealthy guy, they loved each other but couldn't be together due to their status difference, those kinda clishe movies, it was predictable, but the movie took a drastic surprising turn when the guy took his life since everyone was against their unity, it was really unpredictable, he broke her heart and the heart of the people who loved him, the movie was really complicated and I really enjoyed it, we muched more movies for hours....
"What's his deal anyway " shira asked me raising one brow at me "who" I asked completely clueless, "Darrell, duhh" she muttered, "ooh, nothing " she laughed giving me a smug look, "I don't think so" I laughed " I'm serious, nothing, I just met him at the park and" she cut me short "ooooooow, you met at the park" she bit her lips and I pretended to gag "ewwww, I don't mean it like that, I just " she cut me short again " was it "hot" "I beat you had "fun" she teased lacking her lips "eww no, listen, I.... arrrgh never mind " I said and she laughed hard, she laughed at my frustrated expression "you're cute" she said, I glared at her, I picked up a pillow a threw it at her, she just laughed, I jumped off the bed, "I'm thirsty, be right back" I walked out of her room to the kitchen.
I took out a bottle of water, I spotted the glasses ontop of the shelf above the fridge, I tried to reach it but I couldn't, it was too high up, I on my toes but I still couldn't grab it, I groaned inwardly, just then I felt a presence behind me, I heart skip, he was so close, I turned around immediately and he was standing 0 inches away, I could hear his heart beat, our bodies touched and I looked up at the towering figure, he stared at me, he stared into my eyes which sent cold down my spine, he lowered his head to my level, our eyes never breaking the contact, his cologne was strong and it feeled my nose, what was going on...........
