Chapter 2 2

2.

Lesley's eyes flung open at the sound of the horrible alarming sound, she sat up sluggish and rubbed her eyes.

It took a while for her to remember the most stupid thing she had done the day before. Her eyes widened at herself in the mirror and she held her hand in horror.

"I didn't ask that guy to be my boyfriend! And? I even promised to do anything?!" She yelled and almost hit her head.

She bit her lower lips in fear. Of course, any man would take advantage of her stupidity. Though the guy had left her yesterday without kissing her, she knows he was going to do something worse than that.

She gasps at the horrible thought that had crept into her heart then clutched her hand to her chest like the guy was right in her presence taking her clothes off.

After long minutes of overthinking, she finally decided to avoid him in school as much as possible.

She wishes she could transfer but that was her last year at school, it will be a waste of time and effort.

Arriving at school, she looked right and left before heaving a loud sigh. Clutching unto her bag, she set foot to enter the school when a voice stopped her.

Though she hasn't met this guy for a long time, she can still recognize his voice cause it kept ringing in her ears.

"Why will my girlfriend enter the school without me" His voice was hoarse and soothing at the same time.

She turned back slowly, his face as she had noticed is plastered with a smirk. Though he was wearing black attire, he looked so cute with a bad boy vibe.

Her heart raced when he took slow steps towards her, she held her bag closely and half-closed her eyes, the guy approached her.

Suddenly, he scooped her into his arms. She let out a sharp gasp and watch the guy's adorable face.

"Put me down!" She manages to vomit.

"You're my girlfriend " he responded with a grin.

The hallway filled with students was an awkward silence when they saw the new guy carry Lesley. No doubt, they all hated her but at that moment that envied her.

Lesley hid her face in his broad chest, she was shy as well as scared they would throw garbage at her again. But, they all cooed and whispered words to themselves.

Celina Gomez who was filled with hatred quickly ran to the guy's presence. Intoxicated with his foreign green eyes, she looked down and talked; "Lesley, you're so despicable, just now, you have lied to this young guy. Have you forgotten how you shamelessly seduced Ethan at the school garden? You're shameless" She spat.

Riven Newman who was angered by the vicious words that came out of Celina, gently placed Lesley to his side, he held his hand as he talked.

"And you're telling me this why? Haha, I get. If Lesley is so shameless and you're? You sleep with your home dog and come to school every day able to show your filthy face to your horrible boyfriend!" He clamored, anger visible in his eyes but he masked it with an evil smirk

The students gasped and looked at Celina. With shock, she pointed at this mysterious guy. How did he know about that? That was her deepest secret and now, he revealed it just like that!

With shame, she ran through the students and buzzed out with tears in her eyes.

Lesley's eyes gently docked on his slim and slender body, her hand shivered at his slight touch. The guy suddenly appeared strange to her, how did she get herself involved with him?

Though he clearly can defend her and help her through these bullies he was also strange as well.

"Darling?" He faced her and cupped her small face in his broad but slim palm.

His face was handsome as well as compelling, the way he held her sent shivers down her spine and she won't deny, she felt good with his touch.

"I have to go now. Stay out of trouble cause I won't be back soon" He uttered and pecked her lightly on her forehead.

She breathes out as soon as he left her, she was holding her breath all this while and she didn't know.

I haven't gotten myself in mess, she assured herself and walked to class.

Just like he had told her, He didn't come back to class. She was done for the day so she packed her bags and got ready to go home after which she would go to her part-time job.

The hallway was silent, it seemed like every student had gone home but it was barely 4 in the evening.

She could even hear her breath in the air but she shook the negative thought that had crept into her heart.

Walking through and looking at each side to ensure she's safe, she hasn't walk halfway to the door when she suddenly felt a sound.

With a sharp turn, she faced the direction it came from. Her fear visible on her face, without thinking, she prepared to take to her heels when a hand pushed her to the wall with force.

Fear and Panic took over and she tried to scream but a pair of palm clasp onto her mouth preventing her from screaming.

"Hmmm" She muffled.

As the hallway was dark, she couldn't see the figure well.

"Hey, shush, it's me, Lesley" The figure voiced, releasing his grip on her slowly.

"Ethan?" She called, anger evident in her voice.

With anger, she pushed him aside and picked her bag off the floor barging out like a predator ready to strangle its prey.

"Hey, Lesley... I'm.." He stretched his hand to touch her but she jerked it off and paused.

"What was that all about? What if I had died of shock? After everything you've done to me, you're still not satisfied? Now, you want to kill me?!" She yelled, her eyes swelled in tears, she couldn't control herself.

"No, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to scare you" He apologized. His face curled in despair, he felt her tears piercing through his heart like an ax.

"You didn't mean to but clearly, that's what you did!" She yelled and tried walking away again.

To keep her, he quickly held her hand and pushed her to the wall.

"Are you dating that guy?!" He asked, anger in his voice.

With a scoff, she pushed him off and landed her hand on his cheeks.

"You should never hold me that way and, if I'm dating someone, it doesn't concern you" She yelled and ran off.

"Are you sleeping with him already?!"
