VALENTINE'S DAY A better kiss
Valentina’s P.O.V I don’t know why Ethan seemed to be very interested in how I got the wound on my face, it was none of his business, but I felt telling him was the least I could do since he allowed his doctor to attend to me. I didn’t ask for it, but I still felt indebted to him, the doctors’ eyes narrowed suspiciously at my confession not buying it. Any other thing would only threaten my family, I don’t blame Ron for hitting me since I brought it upon myself, it was selfish of me to even think I could have a conversation with Mother. I knew I should have avoided her that evening, if only I had done that, none of this would have happened. The doctor applied some soothing balms after he was done cleaning and disinfecting my wounds, he handed me the rest of the balm and prescribed me some painkillers. “You should massage your neck with the balm, in the morning and night, use a cotton swab for your eyes.” He advised as he arranged his equipment back into his bag. “Use the painkil
VALENTINE'S DAY Battle line drawn
Valentina’s P.O.VEthan’s lips left mine, and a moan of disappointment escaped my lips, I struggled to catch my breath and I felt tears prickle in my eyes. This was the very first time, someone had held me so passionately, even if the kiss was from someone that I hated so much.While his lips were on mine, I didn’t feel any hatred from him, but I was still unable to call it love.I felt the clouds, I felt the butterflies, I felt everything Clarissa talked about and somehow, I wanted more, I wanted him to kiss me some more. I loved the warmth that was between us for that short while, I craved the sense of completion that kissing him gave me.The feeling of having someone, and the comfort that comes with that sense of ownership, except for the fact that Ethan could never belong to me. I stood there in a daze and in the aftermath of the sensation that traveled all over my body, I was lost in the forest of those green eyes that bore into mine intently…This was the second time, but I was
VALENTINE'S DAY It was me!
Valentina’s P.O.V “Valentina,” I raised my head as soon as I heard my name, Mrs. Cindy, our management teacher called me. “Please carry these test manuals to the staff office.” “Yes,” I stepped out of my desk, and stalked towards the table to pick up the test manuals, I wondered why she called for me instead of the class president but anyway, I would rather be anywhere but in the class.The swelling on my face had reduced, thanks to the balm Ethan’s doctor gave to me, the pain had also lessened and I wanted to thank him, but I couldn’t do that anymore because I had drawn the line. That bastard needs to know his place, I might be poor but that doesn’t make me less of a person. “Ouch!” I hissed in pain when I tripped on something or rather someone’s legs, I lost my balance and my knees collided with the marble flooring of the hallways. “Ahh… Valentina, I didn’t see you there.” Lucille chuckled, she was as annoying as ever, I lowered my head to take a closer look at my knee, and it w
VALENTINE'S DAY Ruining Ethan's plan
Travis’s P.O.V“Travis, let me go!” Lucille squealed as I dragged her along with me, we went across the hallways and stopped just before we reached the boy's locker room, she squirmed trying to get out of my grip and I slammed her against the wall. “Are you fucking crazy!?”She yelled at me she held her wrists and glared at me, if only looks could kill I’ll probably be dead by now.“I will ask you just once. It was you, right?” She blinked back at me nervously and continued to rub her arm, a small bruise forming on her very pale skin. “You are the one who tore the manuals they accusing Valentina of, right?”“What do you mean?” She asked pretentiously, and in response, I pressed her even tighter into the wall, she winced in pain. “Let me go!”“You know exactly what I am talking about, it was you who did that to Valentina, right?” I asked again, this time rephrasing myself in case she didn’t understand what I meant the first time. “Don’t you think it’s strange that you and those stupid
VALENTINE'S DAY A confession
Travis’s P.O.V“Now, tell me what is the meaning of this nonsense, Travis?” Ms. Carla asked with challenging eyebrows creased at me. “I know you didn’t do it.”“Yes, I did it,” I answered back, making her more speechless. “I will accept any punishment given to me.”“Even an expulsion?” She drawled curiously, and I paused for a while, wondering how my father would react to his son getting expelled from school. Since he is also friends with Mr. Lords, I am very sure the school could reach an agreement, this is something that wouldn’t happen if it were Valentina in my shoes. “Are you willing to get expelled?”“If that’s the punishment decided by the school disciplinary committee, then I do not have a choice,” I answered very confidently. “However, I’m willing to apologize to my classmates, Ms. Cindy and Valentina, for my misconduct.”“Travis, you are one of the best students this school has ever had.” She reminded me. “Taking responsibility for something like this would only tarnish you
VALENTINE'S DAY I want to disappear
Valentina’s P.O.V“Aren’t you going to say anything?” Alvin asked before pushing me, and I stumbled backward a bit before I was able to regain my balance. “If you destroyed something that isn’t yours, the least you could do is to apologize.”The whole class was restricting me from entering into the classroom, only then did I understand Ethan’s threat, I understood what he meant when he said he was going to show me my insignificance.He asked me if I understood what I was asking for, I guess I didn’t understand what he meant, but now I was overwhelmed and that son of a bitch wasn’t even in class to own up to his actions. I caught a glimpse of Chloe, the class president reaching for my bag on my desk and she strolled towards me with a grimace on her face.“Do you call this a bag?” She asked me curiously, and my eyes trailed to the patchwork of a bag, it was terrible, I know but she didn’t have any right to mock my bag when they were responsible for the destruction of the first one.“Oh!
VALENTINE'S DAY First Threat
Ethan’s P.O.VI stepped back into the classroom with a slight smirk on my face, there was a small sting at the corner of my lips because the conversation ended with Travis hitting me across the face… well there is a first time for everything.It could have been more than that if I also decided to resort to violence, but it would be pathetic if I were to fight Travis over a girl like that, Valentina was not in her seat, and I couldn’t help but wonder if she had gone home already.Travis got everything settled, by sacrificing himself, the least the bitch could do is to stay in class and utilize his sacrifice. I don’t know if it’s just me or the classroom was a bit off, everyone seemed to be discussing something interesting, and I can’t help but wonder what I missed.As I approached my desk, I stepped on a hard-cover notebook, I frowned slightly, who left such a cute notebook in the center of the classroom, I bent to reach for it, apart from having a pretty cover, it also had small cute
VALENTINE'S DAY Ending the blackmail
Valentina’s P.O.V I stood at the edge of the pool staring hard into the water, I stood at the end with the thought of jumping in and ending it all. Would they be happy if I turned out dead? Or would they be sad? I bet no one would care about me... Mother… Ron…. Norah… Nathan…. I doubt they would even think about me, they probably wouldn’t notice I was gone, I didn’t know how to swim, so jumping from her would do it, but the water scares me. It wouldn’t take long for me to die but what about the pain… It would hurt. I wiped my tears away and sighed in frustration, I was so cowardly that I couldn’t even commit suicide properly. I didn’t even know what I was doing, I didn’t want to live but I was too scared to die… I was standing in the middle like a freaking ghost. I knew that I didn’t deserve the life I was living, but I was still selfish enough to want to keep it, even if my existence was at the expense of someone else, I was still trying my best to survive. I have always wond
