If it isn't you Chapter 1
“ I am not taking you with me. Go bug someone else.” Zander sneers at me. I can only see his back but I know him very well and his expressions. “ Please, Zan. We are already getting late and you know very well that I can’t drive.” I beg him. He turned around and like always my heart skipped a beat. Looking at him is always a new experience. His dirty blonde hair is smeared on his forehead, his one leg is already on a bike. He rolled his steel-gray eyes at me and huffed. “ Hurry up then. I am not going to wait for you.” “ You are the best Zan.” I grin at him and take a leap toward him. He smirked at me and before I could even understand what he was going to do, he revived the engine and left me standing in front of his house. I looked at his passing image and the ghost of his bike and sighed. It's always like this with him. The more I try to breach his walls, the harder he pushes me. I look at the time and I know I am getting late on the first day of school. I could ask f

After the detention, I quickly ran to catch Zander. He was sitting on his bike. I rejoiced thinking that he might be waiting for me. I ran towards him. “ Thanks for waiting for me.” I tried to sit behind him but he stopped me. “ Don’t. I am not waiting for you.” He looked at me frowning. I snorted. “ Then who are you waiting for?” I asked him. Because I know there is nobody he gives his time of day. “ Me.” I turned and saw Daisy standing with a meek smile. She is a sophomore. What is she doing with a senior I don’t get it? I raised my eyebrows at Zander who only frowned deeper. “ So you would happily take some Sophomore with you but not me?” “ I can go on my own.” Daisy whispers behind me. My gut was instantly filled with guilt. As I know she is a very sweet and innocent girl. There is not a single mean bone in her body. “ Shut up and sit on the bike. She can stand here all day. Hell if I care.” Zander growled and I took a step back. It's not the first time he has s

“ Thanks, Dad, love you.” I kissed Dad Mave on his cheek and left his car. “ Tomorrow you will drive your to school.” he shouted at me but I was already moving. As I enter the school gates I stopped in my tracks. Zander is there on his bike like every day, but behind him, Daisy is sitting with him. My stomach clenched. What’s happening between them? Daisy left without saying anything to him and I follows him to the halls. “ Can we talk?” I ask Zander. “ If I say no, Would you stop.” He eyes me warily. I grind my teeth. “ Still asking something is a more polite way.” He snorts. “ What’s going on between you and Daisy?” I raises my suspicion and it was a mere whisper. He turns to look at me and grabs my wrist to pull me closer. “ What’s going on between me and Daisy is none of your fucking business.” he sneers at my face. “ We can talk calmly. You don’t have to shout at me.” I whisper softly. Even though my face is calm my stomach is clenching, his face is way t

“ This is your ride?” I asked him while rubbing my temple. “ Yeah. I don’t like the color but its works for me. What do you think?” He looked at me with a hopeful expression. “ It’s a bicycle? There is not even a backseat. Where am I supposed to sit?” I asked him and rolled my eyes. He chuckled. “ Haven’t you seen those old school movies where the heroine sits at the front and then the couple goes on the ride in the town?” He gave me an amused smile. “ I am not sitting there.” Famous last word of a girl who is sitting at the front and enjoying the summer breeze. “ Isn’t it amazing?” Triston asks from behind me. “ Yeah. it's really nice.” I said. I don’t know where he is taking me but right now I don’t really care. I just want to escape. My phone was constantly ringing so I switched it off and threw it inside my bag. “ I think I am going to buy one for me too.” I told him, I don’t know why I told him this but I just did. “ I know the place. I can take you, tomorrow m

The next morning, I called Grandpa to drive me to school, but I had ulterior motives for the meeting. “ My favorite grandkid. Hurry or I will leave your late ass here.” He shouted from outside. I hurried with a box and put it in the back seat. “ I am your only grandkid. Gramps. I don’t have competition, unlike someone.” I teased him. “ Touche.” “ Ask your assistant to donate the box at the back.” “ Will do.” The only reason I asked Grandpa is that he would not ask me the reason behind it. “ Julian wants to talk to you. He has something important to discuss with you.” I groaned. “ Don’t tell me you threw me under the bus again?” This is what my grandparents do. They pull up some crazy shit and blame it on me. Last time they took me to an illegal poker night which got busted by the police. Uncle Julian reams a new asshole out of us. He smirked at me. “ I wish kid. I wish. Guess you have to talk to him on this matter.” When the school building came into my view. My
If it isn't you Chapter 6
After the shock of the confrontation melted I headed back to my class and tried my best to avoid the stares of my friends or I should say, ex-friends. It was hard to concentrate when there were more than a couple of eyes that were drilling holes in the back of my head. When lunchtime came, the dread in my stomach increased. What would be the new dynamics of the cafeteria and how would I fit in all of that? I cannot sit with Zander and others. I don’t think my heart can take that much. I took a deep breath and decided that I would go with the flow. I took my lunch and tried to find an empty table, but as I was so lucky nowadays, there were none. “Bleacher, it is then,” I muttered to myself and as I was about to turn, I was stopped in my tracks by a commanding voice that I am very familiar with. “Daph,” Hunter's voice echoed in the canteen and everyone fell silent. My eyes widened at this. If he was also going to insult me then the only way I would be able to deal with t
If it isn't you Chapter 7
Chill ran down my spine thinking about all the possibilities that could ruin my life, the air in the room grew thick. I never in my wildest dream thought that I would be so scared in front of Uncle Julian. Uncle Julian looked at me with narrowed eyes and the weight of his stairs made me uncomfortable and uncomfortable was a very lighter term that I was using. I was horrified and closed my eyes. “I thought you trusted me.” He accused me. “I ..Uncle..” I tried to say something, anything that would make him less mad. “No, you can’t uncle me, now.” He stood up and I did that too. I was so scared that I stuttered. “I…I didn’t know.. I was scared.” I stuttered. “You were scared?” a hollow laugh escaped his mouth. “You know how embarrassing it was to find out that my niece is in love with Knight’s nephew,” he said. “I am really… what?” I looked at him, startled. I could not believe what I heard. “What did you just say?” I asked him. “Don’t act so innocently in front of
If it isn't you Chapter 8
I was getting ready for school the next day and my phone pinged. Nobody tried to contact me after everything happened in the school and I was thinking that maybe it was one of them. But I was shocked to see the message. My hand trembled in rage not at him, but at me. He caught me in a vulnerable position and now I don’t have any way to protect myself. All the events of that night came rushing to me but I closed my eyes to keep myself steady. This is not the right time to fall in the rabbit hole. I took a deep breath and opened my phone. Devil : How’s my princess doing? Princess That idiot. He is making fun of me. Me: Planning your murder. Devil: Threatening will not take you far, Darling. Me: Ohh, It’s working fine for you. Devil: Whatever, Be ready I am picking you up. Me: Are you crazy? I am not going out with you. Devil: That’s good because I wasn’t asking. I am telling you. Be there at 15. Fuck! I don’t know what his deal was but he was crazy. Our schools were ri
