I gathered all my books and headed towards the school parking lot. On the way, many stared and whispered. Go to hell with that boy and his bad-boy vibes. I was getting irritated with every gossiping person I passed by. By the time I reached Emily who was controlling her laugh, I was fuming.

"Relax, they'll forget it by Monday. I swear," she asserted.

"Yeah. So will you come with me shopping tomorrow? I haven't got the slightest idea of where to shop."I blurted out.

"Yep absolutely" she exclaimed. We exchanged numbers and parted. I had texted my dad earlier and he had told me to wait a few minutes near the school entrance.

But before my dad arrived a white posh audi stopped in front of me. The door opened and out came a model. Wow!!! I didn't know we could look so good in a uniform. I was quite stunned by her appearance and so were the students nearby

She walked towards me and took off her sunglasses when we were a foot apart.

"Do you know Jake?" She asked me scowling.

What? "No" I exclaimed quickly.

"It better stay that way. And steer clear of him okay?" she glared at me.

But suddenly she looked behind me and blushed. She gave me a furious look and got in her car.

Woah!!! What an encounter. I quickly turned around only to spot another speeding car racing towards rhe entrance. When it reached near me I could sense eyes on me but with the shaded windows I could barely make out the person inside.

Who the hell is this Jake!!! And why the hell would he looking at me make such a mess

I sighed. I have only heard of high school dramas, but now I guess I am getting the first-hand experience in it.

But I am no damsel they could mess with.

***********

Mom was busy feeding Lily when Dad and I returned home. We unloaded the new bike we bought on the way back home so I could drive myself around the town on the weekend and schooldays. I loved to ride and explore just like my mum but not to the extreme she sometimes goes.

By the time I bathed and did my homework, it was dinner time. After that, I retired to my room and fell right on my bed and opened my phone when it chimed.

Emily: Was she wearing a 👚way too small for her size, but you feel like it's completely okay for her to wear it cuz she looked gorgeous in it?😌

I chuckled.

"Yep" I replied.

Emily: That's Addison. The 👸 queen. Jake's undeclared girlfriend.

"But why would she threaten me?" I frowned, typing.

"That's because Jake supposedly looked at you. And someone even said that they heard him asking your name around. It's okay though, he never talks to girls. For that matter, he never talks to anyone except for their rich circle. "

"Hey don't forget my know the popular 101 kkk?" she added

We chatted some more and then I put on my earplugs and sat by the window with the 101 paper.

1. Jackson Maximilian aka Jake: heartthrob. Google Heir of Revere Holdings.

OMG!!! This jake guy was the heir of the world's most successful company? which I might add had a net worth of over a trillion dollars? I didn't even know that it had an heir?

I knew this town had rich people but I didn't know THIS RICH too liked going to regular schools than the Oxford or Harvard or whatever. I mean homeschooling?

Wide-eyed I quickly googled, only to gasp.

Blue eyes stared back at me. He was beautiful. The kind of beauty that takes your breath away. But that was not the thing that startled me the most. I had seen him before. In my dreams.

My heart missed a beat. With the terror of something, I couldn't comprehend.
