A Supportive BoyfriendCHAPTER TWENTY-FIVEAlexa“Whoa.” “Would you quit saying that? It’s starting to bug me.”“I can’t help it. It’s just that the video is so mesmerizing.”Stacey and I were currently hanging out in the cafeteria. Her lunch was long forgotten, since she was nose deep buried in her phone screen.Unintelligible sounds came from her phone speakers, eliciting a sigh from me. “Would please quit watching that forsaken video.”“I can’t.” She said. Not that I was hoping she would agree to what I was asking. After that show that Devon and I had put on earlier today, it was no surprise that someone had caught us on video.A lot of eyes had been watching us.Four hours later and the video was already going viral on the school community site. While Devon and I had definitely put on a show for everyone in the hallway, I hadn't even expected that it would go this far.Devon had been really attentive to my needs, and he had been really dedicated to convincing everyone that he was
Hanging outCHAPTER TWENTY SIXAlexa"Mom," I yelled for my mother who was currently in the kitchen. "Could you please help me see the person who's at the door?""Sure, sweetie."Finishing my shower, I wrapped the towel around my body and did the same for my hair. Strolling back into my room, I sat at my dressing table and swiftly began my hair.I quickly applied my body lotion and skincare before I changed into a short pair of denim shorts and a giant sized hoodie. I also tried my hair up in a mess bun.Shortly after I was done, my mom came knocking on my door. "Alexa, it's me sweetie, may I come in?""Of course."She peeked her head inside before coming fully inside. She was smirking at me and I was curious as to why she was doing that."So, who was at the door mom?""Oh." Her grin widened. "It was a young gentleman. He told me he was your boyfriend. He's currently waiting downstairs in the living room."My jaw dropped. There was no doubt she was possibly talking about Devon. I rush
Hanging out-part2CHAPTER TWENTY SEVENDevonI was currently perched at the front porch of my girlfriend's house, waiting for the doorbell that I had rang just a couple of seconds ago to be answered. Alexa, though only being my girlfriend in name only and none of it being real, it felt good to address her as such. My initial feelings at the moment were far from those that I felt from when we first met. However, with a few moments and some dramatic events occuring in both our live, I had found myself catching feelings for her.I had caught onto what a kind and brilliant person she was, especially during the library dates we had both shared over the past summer. I was dragged out of my thoughts when the door opened, revealing her mother. She was a beautiful blonde woman in her mid-forties and I could tell that Alexa had got her looks from her. She smiled pleasantly as she greeted me, "Hello.""Hi." I replied, handing over the bouquet of flowers I had in hand. They had originally bee
Hanging out-part2CHAPTER TWENTY EIGHTDevon"Oh my God. You actually brought me to a carnival." I leaned back against my back, crossing my arms with a shit eating grin as I watched Alexa squeal in excitement. I had come up with the idea after much thought, and I was glad it was actually paying off. "Yeah. I remember you told me about it a few months ago and that you hadn't been to one since you were a kid." I explained as we both made our way to where the tickets were being sold. Grabbing my wallet, I paid for our entrance tickets. "You actually remembered?"She sounded like she was touched."Of course I did. I looked up one online and fortunately found one that wasn't far away from where we lived.""Devon..."Her adorably eyes rounded beautifully as we made eye contact and I couldn't help but smile at her, scratching the back of my head. "I just wanted to make sure you got to have fun."A sweet silence echoed between us, both lost within each other's eyes. The moment however, sho
Prank gone wrong CHAPTER ONE Alexa"Stacey. Do we have everything we need?" I asked. "Yes. We do." Stacey replied. "Let's do a double check." "Okay." When I was sure we had everything we needed, I dragged Stacey through the door. Letting ourselves into the car, we both drove off. Oh, Nick was so gonna get it this time. How dare he, cancel our date night. And no, I wasn't being a drama queen. We both had taken a while without spending time with each other, football practices and everything that came with it. As far as I knew, the football coach had given the team a week off, after they had led the state to championship this year. Like every good girlfriend, I had come up with an idea to spend time with my boyfriend, make out with him or something, but of course, I'm the only one that thought that way. Apparently. Having persistently asked him if he would make it this weekend, and him assuring me he would show up, I thought it was a done deal, only for Karma to bitch slap me in
A not so great first meeting CHAPTER TWO Alexa"You." The words left the handsome stranger's lips in a cold soft caress, freezing me to the stop. To put it more clearly, he wasn't so much of a stranger. He was the guy from yesterday.I didn't know how long we stood there, each staring at the other, or more accurately, one glaring and the other drooling. It could have been seconds, minutes, hours, days, heck, even centuries, but I didn't care. His good looks were so out of this world, and I was having my fill. My eyes roamed his face, taking in his sharp jaw, those thick brows, his deep dark brown eyes that almost looked black, and the black studs in his ears. And above all, those full lips that probably kissed any female species to oblivion. I wanted those lips on mine. Whoa, Alexa. Where did that come from? I still had a boyfriend, even though I was still Godzilla angry at him. My eyes trailed lower, finding him in an almost similar outfit from last weekend, except his t-shirt
Apologetic boyfriends and revenge plotsCHAPTER THREEAlexaIt was a weekend again, and this time, I had the house all to myself. My parents were off for a mini vacation to a place they had let me choose for them, leaving me completely alone at my house. I rose earlier than the other days, doned a pair of shorts, matched with a baggie black shirt with the words "day off" printed on it.I applied a face scrub for a couple of minutes, cleaned my teeth, rinsed my face, and then left it make up free. I cleaned my room, and then dashed downstairs.My breakfast was simple, toast and coffee. Lord, whoever that made coffee was a genius. I don't think I would ever do without caffeine.I hadn't made any encounters with hot stranger, aka Devon Prince, as I had come to know what his name was. Any time we crossed paths, we had both ignored each other, only secretly acknowledging each other.Stacey had asked me to avoid him like the plague, which was hard, because he was everywhere. He had drawn him
An interesting turn of events.CHAPTER FOURDevon's POVI sat in my brother's pub for hours, thinking and relocating my plan, replaying it over and over my head.I took a sip from my drink, and watched the group of guys that sat in the right corner of the bar. My fists clenched, but I knew I had to wait. The right time had not yet come. I had to wait. Taking a deep breath, I unclenched them.I downed my drink in one gulp, grabbed a hundred dollar bill from my wallet, left it on the table and then left the pub.Outside, my brother Harry was playing pool with a couple of his friends. For a minute, I considered joining them, but then changed my mind. I need to tour this place, get used to this town, before actually starting school. I only had two days to do that.Without any need to waste any more time, I walked to the pub's packing lot where my bike was parked. Only to be greeted by a very horrifying sight.There, in broad daylig
