HIM AND I

14|PLEASE

TWO YEARS AGO

      It was just a normal school night. I was home with my younger sister and my mother along with some of the help staying the night. Chilling in bed with music blasting. Thank god my room was sound proof so I didn't wake my mother at ungodly hours that I couldn't sleep at. But this specific night I didn't get a ounce. Not the night before. I told my mother to have the maid drug me but she refuses. She just told me to do something productive.

      So I was drawing in my sketchbook. It worked. I was getting tired. Hopefully my mother would would just leave me to sleep and not wake me up at all. I didn't want to go to school.

      As I started falling asleep I woke up immediately as there was loud banging on my window.

      Like who would be knocking on my window at 4am? On a Friday morning. While my room was in the second floor. My lights were on so I had to open it. It was probably Tyler.

      I opened it up as Joshua jumps on me. Tackling me down in a bear hug to the floor. Tightly as he tries to catch his breathe. He pulls away as I get a look at his face.

      His piercing blue eyes all red. Glass shards in his hairline. Cut lips and blood splattered on his neck. I didn't want to ask as he was hovering over me. Hands cupping on cheek. Smearing the blood on me.

      I grabbed his shirt and pulled him to a kiss. Our first kiss. He winces in pain from the cut on his lip. Drying humping my crotch. Snaking his hands under my shirt. Removing our clothes as fast as possible. The only thing between us. Once that was gone he spoke. "She's gone."

      "Good." I whispered.

      I woke up mounted on Charles who was dead asleep. I look at the clock and gasp. I slap him and he immediately wakes up disoriented. "What?! Was I sleep talking?" He asks getting up. "You're late." I said as he checks his phone. "Fuck!" He utters while throwing me off him along with the blanket. "Sorry." He apologizes as I laughing when he threw me. "Are you going?" He asks. I huffed. "Hell No." I said getting under the covers. "Why not? They're holding a ceremony for that one student who committed suicide a few years back." He says putting on clean underwear. "Yeah. I know. That why I'm not." He tilts his head. "You knew her?" He asked as I roll my eyes. "Boy do I know her? The principal told me not to come."

"Why?" He asks slipping on his pants. "Do you really not know? I thought it'll be the talk amongst the teachers. Before she killed herself in her diary the last entry said that I was what drove her to do it."

"Is that why you were in and out of court for the past two years?" I shook my head. "Wh-what did it say...in her last entry?" He asks taking a seat on the bed as he was interested. "It doesn't matter. My parents kept it quiet." I said kicking him off the bed. "Hurry. Get your ass out." He chuckles as he puts on his shoes. "Head before I head out?" He asks with a pout. "When you come back yeah." He smiles as he presses a kiss on my lips and leaves the room in a hurry.

I stretch as I get up and head in the shower.

I walk into the kitchen after dressing. Luca was making breakfast with Marilyn who's fond of him. It was a mess when they all met Luca.

Tyler recognized him first. And when he said what he does they girls drooled over him and cursed me for being the one to be taking him as a plus one.

They all got familiar with each other after a day or so. Exchanging numbers and socials. Though no pictures will be posted till the day of the dance.
