Lahat ng Kabanata ng Eden High Series: Kabanata 21 - Kabanata 30

I was expecting there to be some backlash, in fact I'd spent a good part of last night thinking about that, when I wasn't imagining Jace and I together. I came to the decision to choose my battles and rise above whatever they threw my way. "Skank alert." Belle, not so much!"It won't last you know, he's just mad at me about something, but we all know he always comes back to me, his one true love. I'm sure he probably has some kind of bet going with the rest of the team. You know how those guys are."This was said loud enough for everyone who was interested to hear of course, and I had a momentary fear that she might be right.I mean that made more sense than the hottest guy anywhere ever, being interested in me.Then I remembered him holding my hand and closing his eyes last night; that look on his face.There was definitely something there; just the memory of that moment made my heart race and filled me with…something.Besides, my brother is on the team. Surely he would've tol

I am about to die; I'm sure my face is ten shades of red and if I open my mouth I'm going to put my foot in it. I was getting some weird vibes from the new guy. Weird as in, I think he likes me.But that so cannot be. I've seen the way the girls look at him, they've been following him around like lovesick puppies for the last two days.So why was he sitting so close to me? This better not be one of those stupid high school set-ups where the popular guy loses a bet or something, because the way he just carted me around in front of the whole school gave a very distinct impression of…what?"Something wrong with your food Red?""What?" Red, was that like some kind of endearment or something?"You're glaring at your sandwich babe, I thought maybe it had offended you in some way. I have noticed that you can be a bit prickly." He grinned at me like my life wasn't complicated enough, what with him sucking up all my oxygen and stealing my senses.And since when have I become one of the bo

We finally made our escape fifteen minutes later, which is why I'd shown up early.I wanted every second of our time together to count, so the few minutes I'd stood there giving her dad the time he needed to adjust and her sister to question as any eight year old would, weren't taking away from that."You look pretty Sian." And she did, simple teenage wear. No over abundance of makeup, no mile high heels, and especially no cleavage revealing thin wear designed to make my dick uncomfortably hard for the rest of the night.The thing was, she didn't need any of that. I'm as horny as the next seventeen year old guy don't get me wrong; but there's something different about what I feel when I look at this girl.There's a hell of a lot more involved than my dick, but instead of scaring me, I feel myself wanting to move towards it.I seated and belted her into the passenger seat before stealing one more kiss walking around. As soon as I was seated and the car was in gear her hand was back

Dinner was an experience with my parents vying for the top spot. It was fun watching them fight over her attention. It was also good to see the girl who had freaked out at the grandeur of my home, treat my parents like an old aunt and uncle that she'd known for years. What the fuck happened in that phone call anyway?She got dad's jokes and shared mom's obsession with coma inducing literature. It was a good fit.Mom and dad gave me the stamp of approval, which was a kiss to her head from each as they said goodnight and left us for the next hour.I had half expected it, wanted it, but it was good to have it."Your parents are amazing, nothing at all like I expected.""Oh? What did you expect?" I pulled her down on the couch next to me in the living room. She was so relaxed now that she didn't even bat a lash at all the awards and trophies and shit that lined the walls."I have a confession to make." She bit her lip, looking nervous again, but I had learned not to second-guess he

There is a sense of forever, but you worry that forever might not last. Then you wonder how you could possibly move on from someone as beautiful as this. At least that was my worry.What if we didn't work? What if he decides one day that I'm not enough? It's only been a few days, but a few days with Jace feels like half a lifetime.It's the way he talks I think, like he's so sure of himself, he's so together, he knows what he wants, and he wants me.I could easily believe that this, what we have, what we're beginning to have, is like what my parents found with each other all those years ago. I can almost feel it deep inside. But can I trust that feeling? Or was it just a case of he's the first guy I've ever dated? I didn't like that thought.As silly as it may seem, I couldn't imagine not being with him. He was just so perfect and I was so scared, afraid to mess this up before we even had a chance."Let's get you to class, they're about to ring the bell." He pulled me under his ar
