Chapter 16
Zeke’s P.O.V.
I finally made it home after the long bus ride home. No one was home obviously since I left them at the mall. I slowly made my way towards my room. I didn’t notice I was crying until I felt my cheeks wet with tears, I guess that explains why so many people were looking at me on the bus.
I hate my life. No matter how hard I try to make myself happy or try pretending my life is ok. When really it’s crumbling beneath my feet and got no one to help me. I feel like I’m drowning in my own self pity and despair. Was I not meant to be love?
First my dad leaves me and my mom, then my mom dies, a few years after that my grandpa dies, and my grandma dies. I never even got to say goodbye to any of them. Sure my dad isn’t dead and he expects me to just let him waltz right in. He’s a stranger to me, but my grandparents and mom are the ones who raised me. They are just gone, leaving me all alone.
I was foolish to think Stryker wouldn’t be the one to cheat and that he change. Still I should have known that he didn’t once a bad ass/manwhore, always a bad ass/manwhore. I might have forgotten to mention that he sleeps around a lot, with girls that is, not too sure about the guys though.
I curled up into a ball and eventually cried myself to sleep.

Stryker’s P.O.V.
I can’t believe the guys would drag me to the mall of all places. I rather be at home playing video games with Danny and thinking about Zeke. I don’t even know how I got him, but damn am I lucky to have him.
“Hey Stry,” great I so don’t want to deal with her, “how come we never get together anymore?” her arms finding their way around my neck.
“Not today and not any other day Kara,” she was the school slut. Only reason I even bother with her is because when I wanted to release some unwanted energy. She was there ready and willing, but I don’t need her anymore I have Zeke.
“Well how about one more quickie before we call it quits,” tempting, what I’m thinking? No Stryker focus.
“No”
“Fine, but at least let me have one last kiss,” what harm can it do?
“Fine only one,” he lips were moist with flavour lip gloss. She swept her tongue across my bottom lip and on instinct I let he in and explore. I didn’t realize how long we were going at until Hopper jab my ribs with his elbow. Right I almost forgot these guys dragged me here. I pulled away and simply turned around scanning the crowd. Apparently we weren’t the only ones at the mall today.
There sat on the other side of the food court was December, Maddie, Rayden and the rest of my so called friends/relative. But the one who caught my eyes was ZEKE!
FUCK! I hope he didn’t see what just happen. Right ago Stryker you actually found a decent looking guy and you go and fuck it up. On impulse I made my way across the food court hoping that it look causal that I saw them, but in the inside I was a having a raging battle in my head. Should I play it cool or should I out right apologize for what I did? There are so many things I want to do to make this better between us. Sure no one knows about us, but if we came out together then maybe we would a real couple and hold hands in public or something.
But no I had to go with his idea and keep it a secret. He asked if I was ok with it, but I really wasn’t. I had to respect his choice just like Rayden, Keagan, Hopper, Codie and Maddie respected mine. I have no one to blame but myself.
As I got near Zeke suddenly got up and walked away from the group going unnoticed. I didn’t even know the rest of the guys had followed until Tessa squealed with delight because she saw Sage. Talk about annoying.
“What are you guys doing here?” Rayden had to ask.
“Thought we have a shopping spree,” Keagan voice was dripping with sarcasm, “it’s a fucking mall Ray, what do you think we’re doing?”
“I thought you guys were having an orgy at our house,” Rayden came back with sarcasm. Sometimes these two can get along, but I guess it just one of those bad siblings moment.
“Hey where’s Zeke?” December’s voice rang out. She stood up looking around until her eyes landed on me. What did I do to her now?
“What?” I was staring at her with boredom. Well at least I hope I was I can’t let anyone find out about me and Zeke, I made him a promise.
“What the hell did you do?” she grinding her teeth together so hard I could see her jaw bone clenching. Amazing how she can still talk through them.
“I didn’t do anything,” shit!
“Don’t play dumb with me Stryker Blaine Rivera, I know, you know I know,” what I’m little confused. My eyes almost went wide, but that didn’t stop my heart beating a mile a minute.
How the hell did she figured it out?
“Wait, what are guys talking about?” Tessa looked confused as did the rest. Hopper was the first one to catch on to what December was talking about.
“Stryker please tell me you did not just screw him over,” yeah way to make me feel more guilty Hopper, “by kissing another person, especially with the school slut.”
“Ok I won’t.”
“What the hell is everyone going on about?” Lennox must have been very curios.
“I also know that your..”I covered her mouth before she could have said the first letter.
“Can we talk about this somewhere more private and I really don’t want to announce it to the whole damn mall, when I don’t have the one person I’m willing to come out with, here,” I was whispered in her ear. I felt her nod her head.
I let go I thought she would just walk head then I would follow her, but instead she grabbed my arm half dragging and half pulling me out. Only seven of the eleven people that were following us knew my secret and now my cousin knows. I’m so gonna kill whoever told her.
