Daisy's POVWhy does that sound so bad?I continue packing and a few minutes later, I hear the footstep of someone entering the tent. I turn to see that that person was Hunter. I examine his neat clothes and appearance; he didn't look like someone who spent the night with a woman.King jumps up from my bed and runs towards Hunter with his tail wagging happily. He lets out tiny barks and he tries to jump as high as he can to get Hunter's attention.Hunter bends down beside him and scratches King's belly before he moves his eyes to me making our gazes meet. I break the stare and continue packing while mumbling an awkward 'good morning' to him with a stray tear falling from my right eye but I hastily wipe it away.I just can't get the image of him kissing Taylor out of my head.He greets me back and goes to the side of his tent packing his own bag. Silence reigns for an hour before he grunts in what seems to be frustration and comes to the side of my bed pulling me up by my waist."You k
Daisy's POV"What! NO! I don't want to get married to someone I don't know! And that too, at age 18!!!" I screech shooting up from my seat."You won't get married now, you're too young. But you're going to be engaged till you both graduate college. Daisy, please don't question me on this one." He says tiredly and I notice the big bags under his eyes since the first time that I've entered the study making me feel like the worst daughter in the world. That still doesn't make me relent though."I'm not selling the rest of my life away just so you can make profits" I say walking out of the study and slamming the door before walking angrily to my room.I furiously throw all my pillows at the door and glare at nothing imagining it was the stupid idiot I was supposed to marry. Unwillingly,my mind goes to Hunter. Maybe I was secretly hoping that the kiss might have been a start of...........No, no, no Daisy don't go there. That would be a perfect recipe for disaster and heartbreak.Now inste
Daisy's POVOf all the people in the world, it just had to be him.Why am I surprised? I've always known fate had a personal vendetta against me. She's always been content to ruin my life just for her own amusement.I pick up my fork and turn my head to the approaching figure to see whether I had imagined him or if I needed glasses. Unfortunately, the figure didn't disappear or change, he kept approaching not looking up from his phone.I don't think he has noticed me yet.There he stood in all his glory, Hunter Stone.I haven't met anyone with as much rotten luck as mine. I had planned to avoid him for the few remaining months that remained for us in High school. Even though I doubt that would be possible with the growing friendship between his friends and my friends.He looked up from his phone and froze in his steps for a few seconds; myriads of emotions passing through his face in the blink of an eye: shock, surprise, a little softness and then anger.Why would he be angry? Does i
Daisy's POV"I'm waiting" she snarls.Is this the same sister Hunter was talking about as if she was an angel? Well, he did mention that she sometimes act like an overbearing mother."Uhmm, yes I am" I answer her question.She scans me from head to toe and then starts to fire me with questions."Do you like kids? What about animals? Who is your favorite Disney princess? Who would you choose between Edward and Jacob? And finally, do you love my brother?" She exhales after she finishes making me start to wonder what the point of this questioning is."Yeah, I do like kids and animals. My favourite disney princess is Tiana from the frog prince. Definitely Jacob and to answer your last question, I..........." I trail off unsure of how to answer.For God's sake Daisy, you just have to say yes or no.I surely don't love Hunter. I don't even like him. Okay the last part was a lie, I think it's time I accept the fact that I have a tiny crush on Hunter."Tiana! Oh, I love The frog prince too! I
Daisy's POVHis face keeps getting closer and my heart's beating speed increases rapidly. I wrap my arms around his neck to support my jelly legs. He touches his lips to mine; just a mere peck and I stand on my tip toes to get more......."Hunter, Mum says it's time to go" Lily suddenly appears and even though she sees the position we're currently in, she keeps standing there smiling.I move away from Hunter very reluctantly and he simply smiles and places a small peck on my cheek."See you at school tomorrow" he mutters before turning around and walking inside leaving me dazed."It worked, it worked! Now phase 2 is in progress" Lily mumbles to herself.When she finally notices she wasn't alone, she lifts her gaze to mine and clears her throat.I fix her with a glare for her earlier lies and give her an expectant look for her to explain herself."It was for a good cause! And besides I ....... You'll never catch me alive!!!" She declares turning around to run inside when she can't fin
Daisy's POVEveryone goes silent for a few seconds excluding some gasps before everything and everywhere goes hay wire. All these are just mere back ground noises though when Hunter's lips are on mine. I instantly wrap my arms around his neck and kiss him back like someone who has been starved of her favorite food for long. He groans into the kiss and then softly bites my lower lip making me moan and providing his tongue the entrance needed into my mouth. He pushes his tongue inside my mouth and I don't even bother to try and control the kiss, I just let him lead.Eventually the need for air wins out and we both reluctantly break apart only to see the whole school staring; some even taking pictures and videos. I immediately feel all the blood rushing to my cheek at what just happened, I've never really seen the appeal in PDA but with Hunter, I just seem to forget everything.And why did he kiss me like that?Was it just to make the engagement that'll be announced tonight look more re
Daisy's POV"It's not what it looks like!" I screech.He turns his mocking gaze to me "Oh, tell me exactly what is going on then?" He asks chuckling bitterly."He was just helping me out" I answer hurriedly having a strange urge to clear the misunderstanding. I'm not supposed to care that Hunter thinks I was about to kiss another guy but I do and I'm desperate for him to understand."Helping you do what? Clean your mouth with his?" He questions sneering and making a move to attack Dean again. I immediately jump between them successfully halting him in his steps."What? No, he was helping me with my eyes" I explain hoping to clarify everything."Because your eyes are just so dreamy he couldn't help but stare" He replies sarcastically and I feel my frustration starting to flare at his rudeness. We aren't even really together for heaven's sake!"I told you...." I start to say before he cuts me off rudely."You know what?! I'm done with this feelings shit and stuff. Thanks for reminding
Daisy's POVSilence.Absolute silence was what occupied the seconds that passed after I did the stupidest thing I've ever done: confess my feelings to Hunter.He finally recovers from the shock and fixes his intense stare on me."You like.......... Say that again" He says his voice taking on a very deep octave."It was a..... I didn't mean......I don't....... Fine. I like you. Go ahead and laugh it out" I answer worked up by the anticipation of his sure rejection.His expression completely changes and he moves closer to me holding my face in both his hands. I melt into his touch instantly and unconsciously take a step closer to him; every single thought flying out of head. I sigh at how familiar yet so different his caress felt this time. His eyes becomes completely fixed on mine except for some occasional moments when his eyes flick to my lips."Daisy, I want ....." He begins to say before a voice that I have strongly come to dislike stops him from completing his sentence and thereby
