Truth or Dare

April's POV Oh no!!I was not liking what was going on at the moment. I was not the person to be dramatic or start any drama but I could sense drama brewing. I was what? Two minutes around people and they were already causing drama."Why would you take the snack if it is not yours?" Marcus asked and I secretly pinched him to stop him from escalating the situation."You are right Maddy. It is just a snack. You can have it."I decided to speak hoping that was a good signal to show everyone that I was fine. But the truth was, I was not okay deep down. I wanted to be away from everyone there.There was an awkward silence around the room and I wondered what I was supposed to do. So I awkwardly sat down."Okay, can we get back to the game?" Leo cheerfully said saving the situation. I took a relieved breath when everyone agreed with him. I forced a small smile on my lips. Then I felt a stare boring through me. I looked at Alex who was the source of the stare. I stared back at him without sa

April's POV The game continued for a while and more drinking games were introduced. People got so drunk except for Alex and I. I avoided anything that would make me drunk. When I had no choice but drink, Marcus would secretly drink for me. I guess he knew I did not drink. For some reason, Alex drunk as much as everyone but he did not get drunk.Now it was morning. I slowly opened my eyes letting my eyes adjust to the sudden light that welcomed my eyes. I had a foggy recollection of how and when I fell asleep but judging from the familiar decor of Marcus's sitting room, I was sure I was at Marcus's place. I sat up from my sleeping position apparently on the couch and I looked around hoping to see anyone. You know, Marcus's friends."Look who is up?"a cheerful familiar voice sounded in the room. It was Olivia. I turned to see her walking towards me. I was at the moment bothered that I was the only one on the couch. I cleared my voice to avoid it from coming hoarse because of my sleep.

Typical rude Alex

April's POV " Woah, who is that?" Maddy gasped grabbing attention of everyone in the group to look at who she was referring. My face instantly lit up. My brother stood against his car that was parked at the lone spot in the parking lot. He had sunglasses on. "And what car is that?"Maddy added as we walked further into the parking lot."That car is worth millions. As rich as my family is we cannot afford it as easily."Marcus commented and I looked at my brother's car. I had not noticed the type of car he came with. I instantly got annoyed that he chose to come with a flashy car. He knew I hated attention and he came with a car that screamed attention."P....why are you just standing there? Come here and give me a hug." Landon said and everyone looked at me with with questioning gazes. I forced a smile. "That is my brother Landon."I told them and I heard one or two gasps."Are you serious?" Maverick asked looking me up and down. That was weird right?Just when I was about to answer, I

I want me Gone

April's POV "What are you doing here?"Alex coldly asked Landon. This was getting weird. I stepped away from where I was standing behind Landon and I stood next to him."What is going on?"I asked Landon out of curiosity."How rude was this asshole to you?"Landon asked getting so serious I was actually getting scared.I blinked confused then I glanced at Alex. I wanted to see his expression and he was as unreadable as always. "He was not rude at all."I told Landon shaking my head a little bit more vigorous than I intended."She is lying. I was the worst person she has probably met."Alex said and I narrowed my eyes at him. Why would he say that? It was true anyways but...why would he say that? Couldn't he read the air? My brother was not about to laugh with him. He made that clear with his dangerous tone.I looked at Landon shaking my head again but it was too late. He had already swung his fist and hit Alex's perfect jaw. I think I heard a crack sound as a result. I was not sure from

APRIL'S POV I looked at Alex waiting for an explanation. What did he mean by what he said? "How do you know my family?"I asked when I got tired of waiting for Alex to take the hint and explain on his own accord.Alex stared at me. "Get your stuff June and leave. I don't even know why I am speaking to you in the first place."He told me coldly then the next moment he stood up straight and walked away. I jumped at the sound of the door banging. He went to his room.I sighed and I bent down near my suitcases. A few minutes later I was done packing and I was pushing my suitcases down the hall to the sitting room where I assumed Landon was. He was looking, no...surveying around the sitting room like a person who was hoping to find something he lost."What are you doing?"I cleared my throat before asking to gain his attention.He turned to look at me acting like he was not snooping a second ago."Are you done?" He asked looking at my suitcases."Do you know snooping is considered creepy?"I
