Finding the Lost Heiress of Montenegro's

CHAPTER 4

I am currently looking at myself on the mirror here inside the school toilet. My eyes seem really red and my eyebags has gotten darker. All because I couldn't sleep last night. Asking myself why I always have to be sad. I'm in deep trouble at home. My mom and dad hates me a lot. I pity myself. And here at school, I'm acting as if I'm the bravest, when in fact, I'm the most coward of all. I can't fight back to my parents. I can't even experience a normal teenage life with stories narrate like this: Parents love their children, do everything for them, respect them, let them live the life they wanted, and most of all, not treating them like rags. 

I let a deep sigh for the hundredth time today. I walk inside the room for our first class with Mr. Lopez. I sigh again when I remember that I'll be sitting beside Jake Williams. He's one of the reasons why I couldn't manage to get a sleep last night. That guy acted like a jerk the first time we met, but last night he was different, very different.

I sit up straight on my seat and bring out my Algebra book. What a nice day to start with numbers! I smile because there is no sign of Jake Williams yet. Then, I frown because there will be no Kara beside me today. She called me last night, saying that she won't attend classes today because she's really ill. I feel bad for her. She always stay up until night studying, after working for about four hours after school. I don't know her parents and their works, she never tell it to me. 

I look up when I hear murmurs from our room. I look down when I realize what's the reason. Nothing new, it's just Jake Williams and his two friends, whom I don't know yet, walking to their seats. I am just looking at my book, pretending that I'm solving a hard word problem, when in fact, I am just scared to see Jake's face, especially because of what happened yesterday. Am I really starting to fall for him? I shake my head. No is the answer! No, Never!

I startle when I saw him leaning on me. He's very close to me again, like yesterday. His face is just..... just perfect. I look away knowing that I'm blushing. I don't want him to see my blushing cheeks. That would be very embarrassing. 

I saw every girl in the room looking at me. I immediately look down when I saw Abbie Brookes paying me a deadly look. Oh, Kara please save from their eyes! Mr. Lopez just come here and start the class already!

"So" I panic as soon as I hear my seatmate's voice. "Am I included in your dream last night?" I look at him and saw him smirking. What a perfect creature of God! Oh, stupid Eunice! Stop complimenting a guy. Especially, if his name is Jake Williams.

How can I even dream of him when I didn't get even a minute of sleep? 

I couldn't answer so I just shake my head. I return on reading my book again. I feel really intense I don't know why. I close my eyes, wishing that Mr. Lopez would come soon. He's already late for goodness sake!

I immediately open my eyes when I feel someone touching me. I am shocked for the nth time today. Jake is holding my left hand while facing me. Again and again, he gave me a smirk. "How about a date after school?" My eyes bulge with his question. Is this playboy asking me for a date? Is he playing games with me? What on earth is he doing holding my hand?

I am about to remove my hand from his hold when a certain idea popped out of my mind telling my inner self to do something evil today. I look at Abbie's direction. Her eyes narrowed at me and I can feel her anger. Time for revenge, my dear. I smirk at her. My first ever smirk, I think.

I immediately face Jake, making sure that Abbie is still looking at us. Luckily, she is. I give Jake my biggest smile and nod at him. He smirks at me again and starts brushing my hair with his fingers. I lean into him and rest my head into his right shoulder. Looking at Abbie again, I smiled at her. She's about to cry. What a shame! I succeeded.

"You really enjoy getting into trouble sweetie?" I look at Jake's face. What is he talking about?

"What do you mean?" 

"You're doing it because of Abbie hmm?" He said while still playing with my hair.

"She's up to no good. I'm up to no good. We like each other." I said faking a smile to him.

"Want her to get mad or want her to get jealous?" He asked me directly looking at my eyes. This is uncomfortable. I leave his arm and face him.

"How about both?" 

"You're really the trouble queen." He laughed at me. Now, we're both facing each other. He cupped my jaw. I heard everyone mumbling. "Want me to help you with it?" 

What is he saying? Oh Jesus! I'm really in trouble. Please let's just skip this day and pretend that nothing like this happened or just bring me back to last night when I was just crying on my bed, or just bring me back to Alice Valley! It's more peaceful there. 

But then, this is reality. I have always lived an ordinary life. Trying something new isn't bad. It must be exciting. How would I know? Then I should give it a try.

I slowly nod my head to him and by that, our lips meet. Gently and passionately. I close my eyes, feeling his lips on mine. I'm right! It's really soft and kissable. I suddenly opened my eyes when he bit my lower lip asking for entrance. What the hell! What to do next? I should have at least googled a tutorial for this. 

Concentrate Eunice! Everyone is looking. Abbie is looking! I opened my mouth and encircled my arms on his neck, while he's pulling my head to deepen the kiss. I startle when I feel his lips making small kisses on my neck. I let a short moan when he bit a good spot somewhere near my collar bone. I closed my mouth with my right hand. Did I just moan? While everyone from the class is watching? Because of a playboy? Shit. I am really up to no good.

Jake looked at me and remove my hand from my mouth. He kissed my lips again and I kissed him back. Didn't know kissing is this good. Returning my arms back on his neck, he suddenly stopped the kiss. I am looking at him desperately, waiting for more, asking for more.

"Enough for now, sweetie," He smirked at me then give a quick peck on my lips. I immediately removed my arms on his neck. Gosh, this is awkward. I can't look anywhere at the moment.

The bell rang and everyone exited the room. I can feel all their eyes on me. Jake also left the room with his friends, who were all laughing at me. THIS IS EMBARASSING. 

Please remind me what I have just done? Enlighten me, please. Did I just make out with the playboy? Eunice, you're dead.
