Alone

Chapter 7

Michelle's POV

"Mason,where you going?"I asked observing his dressing.

"To meet my girlfriend!I don't owe you a fucking explanation but I'm going to visit Jace though"He responded with chips in his mouth.

"I have never been to his house before,can I come with?won't his dad get mad that a girl came to visit him?!"I inquired.

"Well,he isn't staying with his parents,long story short,he has his own apartment"He replied preparing to go tell my mum.

"Awesome!!So....can I come with ?Pwetty please"I pleaded pouting my lips.

"Okay fine"He agreed with a frown.

"What's with that face?!Anyways let's go"I cheered grabbing his hands and running to our mum's room.

What?!

I just want to see his house

Or you want to see his cute face and maybe get another kiss

No!!

I guess I'm right

You are not!!

I argued with my subconscious

My mum gave us permission so we left for his house,the apartment looked really fascinating

I likey

"Dude,this apartment is so cool,you get to do whatever you want,no parents,freeman and alot of girls to bring home, I'm jealous,man!"Mason remarked going in and out of every room in the house.

By rooms,I mean kitchen, bathrooms,bedrooms,living rooms,you know that right?!

"Yeah,I know"Jace replied uninterested and somewhat sad.

"Hey,you doing okay?"I asked worried.

"Yeah,I'm okay"He replied walking away.

Ouch

Told ya he didn't like you

Shut up

Maybe he isn't in the mood to talk

Or maybe he is irritated by your presence

Shut uupp!!!

I argued with my subconscious again.I regretted why I came, Jace and Mason were already playing video games,I was left bored and my phone was also boring because Olivia wasn't reachable,I was already planning to tell Mason I wanted go home when

"Shitt!!"Mason exclaimed standing up quickly.

"Dude,what's wrong?"Jace asked raising one of his perfectly carved eyebrow.

So hot

"I gotta meet up with Kim,I gotta go right now,see you later"He explained leaving the house swiftly.

Did he just?!

No he didn't?!

Yes he did!

Wait was this a plan to leave me alone with Jace?!

Nah

My twin brother just forgot he came with his sister and he left without her!!

Are you sure he's my brother because I think my real brother was switched at birth with this weirdo

Who you asking?!!

Great!!

Now I'm left with Jace,this is going to be so awkward!!

"So you and me huh?!"Jace said hopping into the couch very close to me.

"Alone"He whispered into my ears sending chills all over my body.

Ladies and gentlemen the moment we have been waiting for is finally here!!

Bitch he's only talking to you because you two are alone and he's bored

I don't think so

Stop acting dumb

Shut up I might be a dumb bitch but I ain't fucking stupid

We will see about that

I argue with subconscious alot

"So...why did you come"He asked touching my hands softly.

"Well,I..... just wanted to...come see your house...since I have never been here"I muttered.

"Didn't Mason tell you,this is a new apartment,I just got here,I actually got kicked out from my father's house"He chuckled.

"I didn't know"I replied surprised.

"But why?"I asked out of curiosity.

"That's a story for another day,it's not that important,my dad just wanted me to move here"He replied looking elsewhere.

I could hear and feel the pain in his voice and words,I didn't push him further,there was deefening silence which lasted for a while before he broke it.

"Do you like pizza?I'm really craving one right now,I'm so hungry"He chuckled as he broke the silence.

"Yes, please!,I'm also hungry"I giggled.

We talked about school and different things before the delivery boy came with the pizza.

I found him staring at me making me wonder if he has noticed how ugly I am

"Your eyes are so beautiful..not just your eyes,I mean you are beautiful in general.. I mean you have a pretty face"He stuttered.

Wait is Jace Walker stuttering because of me?!

Nah

"Thanks"I replied looking downwards with my cheeks almost like red tomatoes.

"Do you want to go on a date sometime with me?"He asked.

"What??I mean yes sure..I would love to"I replied hugging him.

I suddenly realized what I just did and I retreated but I was pulled back into his arms and his lips pressed against mine.Our lips moved in sync,sucking each other's tongues,he moved to my neck kissing me all over,he carried me with my legs wrapped around his waist to his bedroom,he placed me on his bed,took off his shirt showing his abs making me drool all over,he slowly came close to me taking my shirt off my body,leaving me in bra,his fingers moved slowly from my belly bottom to chest,making me breathe heavily

I don't want to loose my virginity now

"You haven't been touched before?"He whispered into my ears and then looking into my eyes.

I shake my head indicating no

"Don't worry,I'm not gonna disvirgin you,not now"He said with a smirk.

I breathed a sigh of relief,he drew me close to him and wrapped his arms around my waist and placed a kiss on my forehead,making me comfy for some reasons,I closed my eyes and let darkness take over.

Michelle's POV

He wrapped his arms around my waist from behind and whispered into my ears with a seductive voice

"You look so fucking hot in this dress,it's so seductive"He complimented biting his lips.

He slowly spun me around and smashed his lips against mine,it was so passionate,our lips moved in sync,making me release a moan I have been holding when he grabbed my ass and..

"Michelle,what are you thinking of?Chop those onions quickly"My mum said bringing me out of my imaginations to reality.

She must have called my name,a thousand times.

"Sorry mum,here you go"I apologized handing her a plate of chopped onions.

The Date is today, well I don't really think is a date,we just gonna hang out in some restaurant and talk about different things,I think that's a date.

I used this opportunity to tell my mum about my outing today

"Mum, I'm going out today with Olivia"I lied.

I avoided her eyes because if I look into hers and say those words,I'm definitely going to spill the beans.

"Okay,what time?"She asked still cooking without looking at me.

"By 1"I replied looking downwards to my feet.

"Okay,be back before 5pm, alright?!"She ordered.

"Yes,sure mum"I giggled and went to my room to get dressed.

I got to look good,who knows ?!

He might ask me out

I still have an hour left

I sat down on my bed remembering all the times we spent together at school,I was being given special treatment and I must say I enjoy it,don't get me wrong,I'm not an attention seeker but everygirl loves attention from a guy she would want to be her future boyfriend right?!

At school,he was always around to make me smile,blush,laugh so hard and I got alot of deadly glares from girls especially Miss Ifeyinwa.

They all want to eat me up

I decided go casual,I wore a V top with high waisted jeans and a black leather

jacket just to add an edgy touch,I applied mascara and a flavoured lipgloss just in case of a kiss you know lol...

I wore hoops earrings and my sneakers,it was already 1pm when I finished getting ready.

I observed myself in the mirror to see if anything was missing,I wanted to look perfect for him.

"You look really pretty,more like a bad bitch!!"I complimented myself while looking at my reflection.

I grabbed my phone from my purse and called him to let him know I was ready.

I called but it showed line busy,I sent him text messages,I called countless times but he didn't pick up,my hands trembled,tears were trying to escape my eyes but I consoled myself that I was overthinking everything.

I decided to wait a little,I waited till 2pm,no calls or texts from him

This is worst than heartbreak

Suddenly,I got a call,I quickly answered it without checking the caller's ID

"Hey Jace,I'm ready,you got me worried....are you okay?!....,I have...been waiting...for you"I quavered on the phone.

"Mich?Is everything okay?Is Oli,were you expecting Jace?"Olivia inquired in a worried tone.

"Oh,hi Oli,I thought it was Jace,we were supposed to go on a date but he isn't reachable"I sobbed.

"Awwwn,stop crying,look I'm on my way,we will go grab some icecream,now put on a happy face till I get there okay?!"She comforted me on the phone.

"Okay,I will be waiting"I replied wiping the tears off my face.

Few minutes later

"Good evening,Ma"

I heard a voice from downstairs,it must be Olivia.

That was fast

"I'm here"She said in a high pitched tone.

"Oh good,I wanna sleep"I replied with a long face taking off my jacket.

"Hello?!!,what do you think you are doing?!"She asked raising one of her eyebrows and folding her arms.

"About to sleep"I replied giving her that obvious look.

"Is this because of Jace"She inclined sitting close to me on my bed.

"Sort of"I replied playing with my fingers.

"J stands for Jace and it also stands for Jerk,why carry a long face when your bestfriend is here?!You don't need him,you only want him,now get up,let's go to Crunchies"She stated tapping me on my right shoulder.

"Ouuucch"I exclaimed feigning pain.

"That didn't even hurt,now get up"She chuckled.

"Okay,fine let's go"I rolled my eyes with a smile on my face.

We got to Crunchies,I must commend that this fast food is really amazing when it comes to Ice cream department,just one taste and you are already addicted.

We were waiting on a line to get the ice-creams when I sighted Jace and a girl laughing and eating together on a table.

Son of a bitch

I got ditched for her?!

Michelle's POV

"Oh My God!!Isn't that Jace Walker and is he with a girl?!"Olivia pointed out.

"Yeah,I guess,I will be right back"I said smiling briefly at Olivia and walked towards Jace's table.

"Hi Jace"I muttered waving my hands.

I didn't get a response

"Babe,who is she?"The girl with Jace said pointing at me.

"Oh,she's my classmate and Mason's sister"He replied without facing me.

Wow Jace nice introduction

"Oh,hi,I'm Joan,Jace's girlfriend and you are pretty"She stated with a wide smile on her face.

Girl what?!

Girlfriend!!

Oh she called me pretty

She's cool

What?!

She called me pretty?!Don't get me wrong,I'm happy with her compliment not because I got ditched by a guy thereby my gay side is coming out ,nay but I'm happy because I think it's cool when your fellow girl compliments you because I assume she's been honest than a guy who might lie about your beauty just because he wants to get under your pants.

For someone who looks so beautiful, beautiful is infact an understatement,she looks a goddess,my beauty or whatsoever isn't a match for her,no wonder I got ditched, anybody would ditch an ugly ogre like me for a goddess like her.

"I'm Michelle"I introduced myself to her faking a smile.

You know my reason for my fake smile right?!

"I just decided to say hi to you two,I gotta go,see you guys later"I said waving them as I took my leave.

So he has a girlfriend,this whole time I thought I was special,the make out scene didn't mean anything to him,why would it mean anything to him?!I mean it's his thing,he has made out with tons of girls,why would I think mine was special?!

Michelle Adigheji, I'm ashamed of you for being among the conquest list.

You have been officially used and dumped maybe ?!

If Mason finds out about this,he is going to kill us,mostly Jace because he used his sister so it would be best if I kept my mouth shut.

"You okay?"Olivia asked as I got to our table.

"No,I'm not"I drawled holding back the tears in my eyes that were trying to escape.

You don't want cry in front of everyone do you?!

Come on

You are a bad bitch

Fight it !!

"It's okay,do you want to go home?We can leave if you want us to"She offered.

"Yes,please"I replied looking downwards.

Remind me never to have high hopes about love in my next life

Olivia couldn't go home with me because her mum needed her,so she left,leaving me alone with my annoying asshole brother.I was so bored and sad,I decided to check my phone to find something to lighten my mood but I wished I never did.

Jace posted pictures and videos of them together on Instagram and his WhatsApp status,they looked adorable,I groaned as soon as I saw their pics and the comments....it was so annoying and heartbreaking.

If I knew he had a girlfriend,I would have backed off honestly,but too bad I had to find out this way.

I heard the door bell ring,I decided to check because I know Mason would never go and check,I got to door and it turned out to be Kim.

When will all these girls get that my brother is a player?!

When you finally get that Jace is a player and you get over him!!

My subconscious replied

She's rude lol

"Can I come in?Mason invited me"She said with her hands on her waist.

"But it's late"I replied giving her a dirty look.

"Just call Mason, already"She bellowed.

"Woah,calm your ass down,this is my house,anyways come in,I will go get him"I replied leaving her at the door to decide if to come in or not.

I was at Mason's door when I heard his conservation with someone whose voice sounded familiar so I decided to eavesdrop.

Jace?

But when did he get here?!

"What's going on between you and my sister?"Mason inquired.

"What?! Nothing is going on between us"Jace faltered.

"But you two are always together at school, holding hands,having fun and you say there's nothing going on"Mason stated.

"Dude,relax, okay?!We are just friends nothing more or less besides she's not my type"Jace concluded.

Ouch that hurt alittle

"Hello??!!We are talking about my sister here and if I'm hot then she is"Mason asserted.

Awwwn thanks bro

"You know she's a girl right,anyways it doesn't matter, she's hot okay fine"Jace acknowledged.

"So how did your date go with Joan?have you smashed her yet ?"Mason asked.

"Dude,no!!I haven't,I'm planning to tho"Jace whispered yelled at Mason.

I completely remembered that Kim was downstairs waiting,I walked in and told Mason that Kim was downstairs waiting for him,he ran out immediately leaving Jace and I alone.

I was kinda waiting for an apology and when I didn't get any...

"Joan is a pretty nice girl,I don't think you should play her"I stated and walked away without waiting for a reply.

Love sucks!!.
