Badboy's Venom

chapter 15

TRIGGER'S POV

I'm coming to fetch my phone from the car when I approach this gorgeous delicate lady standing alone by the gate. The closer I approach her that's when I get a better view of her, she's beautiful. She's got a beautiful face, long brownish hair and her curves you'd swear they're man made. I know I like her already. "Hi, my name is Carl." I introduce myself.

"Hey, I'm Zoe." She replies. She looks so lost. No she can't be the girl Mike was talking about! I can tell already that she's a good girl. Mike doesn't deserve her, he will ruin her. Even though he claims to love her, I doubt he does. He wants to use her as a distraction and play her. I have to prevent that from happening.

"What is a gorgeous lady like you doing out here in this cold weather?" I question her. "I don't attend house parties, it's my first time and I am bored already." She says with a sad tone. "Didn't you come with your friends?" "I came with my friend Sammy and her boyfriend. She's been wondering all over the place that's the reason I came outside."

"Besides them, don't you know anybody here?" I ask. "I know Mike." She mumbles. He did it! Mike took advantage of her. I know he is manipulative. "Come let us sit down." We take a seat on the grass and gaze at the stars. She's shivering of cold. "Here, have my jacket" I place it around her. "Thank you. Why are you so kind?" She smiles as she's questioning me. "It's rude to let a lady die of cold." I tell her and she giggles. Zoe is even more gorgeous when she smiles.

"The stars are beautiful-" she compliments. "Do you believe in shooting stars?" Zoe questions. "Yes I do, if I didn't I wouldn't be sitting next to you now." I joke. "You know it's my first time stargazing with someone . I usually have these moments alone." "I too, it's my first time." I inform her. "What a coincidence!" We both laugh after she says that. "How about we both make our wishes?" I suggest. "You go first." "Ladies first" I challenge her.

"I desire peace and success on becoming a psychologist, lastly a loving husband who will love me with no doubt and put me first. I want that Jack and Rose love from Titanic." She's all emotional now. I wrap my arms around her shoulders then bring her close to my chest. I think she likes it since she doesn't move away. There's strong chemistry between us. "That's amazing Zoe, I believe all your desires will be fulfilled." "Thank you Carl, now you tell me yours." She enquires.

"I want to study art at college, so I'll own an art gallery. Currently I do paintings and sell them, that's how I make pocket money." Her eyes are wide open. "Wow that is awesome." Zoe says while looking at me in amazement. "You think so?"I reckon. "Yes really awesome. You have to do one painting of I." She pleas with pleading eyes. "Okay, okay I will. I'll have to invoice you for that one." She giggles.

"I don't mind as long as I'll have a painting of myself." She sighs "In terms of love, don't you want any?" Zoe asks. "I do but then I'm not searching for any. I believe love comes naturally." I say and she looks satisfied by my response.

ZOE'S POV

I feel safe in Carl's chest with his arms wrapped around me. I have never felt this way before, like I'm important to him. It feels like it's me and him against the universe. At this moment I am free from all my problems. "Are you okay? Let us go back inside the house." Carl's voice brings me back to reality. We are at the party; I've forgotten we've been here outside for long now. "Yes I'm okay. Let us head inside." We both head inside the house.

Carl offers me a drink, it's red wine so he says. We are now seated in the living room with other pupils who are busy dancing. I dart my eyes around. Mike finally shows up coming down the stairs. No it can't be! He is followed by a tall girl with purple hair, purple hair? It's her, Natasha. Natasha and Mike were making out right under my nose. I couldn't control the anger inside me. Before I know it I'm confronting Mike and her mistress.

"So this is how you do things huh? You take advantage of innocent girls like me then ditch them up after you've got what you wanted?" My voice is betraying me. I didn't mean to speak out loud. "Zoe it's not what it looks like." Mike says with a low voice trying not to bring attention upon us. "What it is then? Cause it's clear enough that you two were making out. You didn't try and pretend to care at least by calling or texting me." I feel my tears falling off my face.

"Bad boys are not for everyone. Leave them to us sweetheart or you'll get burnt." Natasha teases me. I don't like her at all and now she's giving me more reason to dislike her. "Shut up Natasha!" Mike snaps at her and moves closer to I. He tries to grab my hands, I jerk away immediately. "Can I have a minute with you to explain myself?"

"Get away from me!" I shout out loud. At this moment he's driving me insane. "You've heard her bro, give her space." Carl tells Mike as he wraps his hand around my waist. "Trigger do not push my buttons." Mike threatens Carl as he moves closer to him. "I'm not intimidated by you Mike. Come let us leave Zoe." Carl backfires and Mike gives me a dead glare. I know he will be pissed off if I leave with Carl but right now I'm more than hurt to consider his feelings. I give him a glare too before I leave.
