Chapter 4

  • Confused
  • Jace's POV
  • I was dared to make out with one of the girls who has crush on me and dump her afterwards,there were alot I mean alot of them including Junior students and Michelle but I choose Ifeyinwa, alittle heartbreak will make her calm and sober for awhile.
  • I texted her and told her to come to Mason's house and she came in a jiffy.Mason and the boysknew about the dare excluding Michelle and some other people.
  • This will be fun
  • This will be the perfect opportunity for me to make Mich jealous.
  • I drag Ifeyinwa to the guest room to have few talks with her before the main deal,to my utmost surprise she started the whole thing.We kissed but it didn't feel right,she only kissed me because she likes me and I kissed her because of a dare but things didn't end well, Michelle caught us and I could see anger and pain in her eyes who wouldn't be angry ?I couldn't even say a word to her at that moment because I was guilty,I shouldn't have done the dare.
  • Stupid me
  • Two weeks has passed and she hasn't said a word to me anytime we make eye contact,she is always the first to break it.Icannot talk to Mason about it because he won't let me date his sister knowing fully well I am or was a player,he is also a player but no brother would want a player to date their sister right?!Ever since the incident,she has been hanging out with Tobi,they seem to be dating, I'm not sure tho,I can't judge by what I see right??!
  • I really want to talk to her about it,I have known her since childhood and I haven't spent a day without talking to her but now things are not thesame as they were,I think am addicted to her!!
  • Science class had free period and coincidently,The Government teacher isn't in school today so it is also free period for them as well.
  • This is the perfect opportunity to talk to her,I send one of my guys,James to tell her that her form mistress sent for her.When she got to where I was hiding,I dragged her upstairs to an empty class to apologize.
  • "Jace,are you okay?Why did you kidnap me"She said frowning.
  • "I didn't kidnap you,silly"I grinned.
  • "What do you want?Be quick,my form mistress sent for me"She said with a frown on her face.
  • "I just wanted to apologize, I'm sorry for what I did,I honestly have no explanation for what I did,it was really stupid of me to do that dare"I apologized with a sad face.
  • "Wait,it was a dare?"She asked curious than ever.
  • "Yeah,It was dare to sleep with any girl who has a crush on me"I replied looking down.
  • "And you chose Ife??So you were planning to take her virginity and dump her?? Really petty!! and what do you boys gain from breaking a girl's heart?!!"She replied angrily.
  • "You are overreacting"I stated with a straight face.
  • "Overreacting?Trust me,am not overreacting"She replied.
  • "And she isn't a virgin,she told me herself and it was a dare"I said defending myself.
  • "A dare you would have rejected,it still doesn't justify your action"She said in a low tone.
  • "I'm sorry,I didn't mean to hurt you"I apologized again.
  • "Hurt me??!Why would you think I will be hurt by your actions,I mean you have always been a player,it's not something new you know"She replied with pain in her eyes which she was trying to hide.
  • "Because you like me?!!"I said more like a question than a statement.
  • "Let's get things straight here,I liked you but not anymore,get that into your head and from now on,you are just my classmate and my brother's bestfriend!!"She stated and walked away.
  • Well,it totally deserve it.
  • Michelle's POV
  • I finally made it clear to him that I want nothing to do with him,I felt both guilty for hurting him and relieved for letting my feelings for him go,his eyes were always on me still pleading with hope that I will accept him back someday as a friend maybe.
  • I have been hanging out with Tobi,he seems to be a really nice guy if I am going to date him that means more love and attention less drama but I thought wrong.There were rumours about me getting dumped by Jace and now I'm already in a relationship with Tobi
  • Wow I wasn't in a relationship with any of them funny enough I got better things to do with my time
  • Well,it did seem like Tobi and I are dating because of the closeness and the names he calls me
  • Silly boy
  • "Hey princess❤️"
  • I got a DM from an unknown number, It has become my habit of not saving people's number especially if we ain't close or maybe I forgot to save it but by the name I was called I knew who it was.
  • "Hey Tobi "I replied with a smiley emoji.
  • "How are you, Beautiful"He asked.
  • "I'm all good what about you"I replied.
  • "I'm not fine,am actually cold and need to be cuddled so bad"He replied.
  • I honestly wish this statement came from Jace
  • Get your mind off him
  • I didn't know how to respond to the message so I left it on delivered and slept off.
  • "Mich!!Michelle!!"
  • I heard my name been called from afar,I didn't bother to answer because I knew who it was.
  • "Michelle!I have been calling your name for a long time"Tobi said finally catching up with me.
  • "Sorry,I didn't hear you"I replied still walking.
  • "Why have u been avoiding me?!"He asked in a high tone.
  • "I haven't"I stated.
  • "Then why did you snub my messages and also my calls"He asked again.
  • "I didn't know how to respond to the messages"I blurted.
  • "And you thought snubbing was the best option"He snapped.
  • "Yes"I replied looking away.
  • "That's not how you are supposed to behave as my girlfriend...."He was about to complete his statement when I cut him short.
  • "Your girlfriend?!Tobi,I think you misunderstood the whole situation,we hanged out,good!You are a nice guy,that's right!I enjoyed your company but we aren't dating alright?!"I stated and walked away before he could reply.
  • After saying those words,I felt relieved,I didn't want to be in a situation whereby I am in a relationship without my knowledge.
  • I didn't go to school for the rest of the week,I was sick from high fever,so I was being taken care of,by my mum.
  • On Saturday,my family went for a friend's wedding,I couldn't go because I haven't recovered fully so I was left home alone,Olivia was going to come visit but she delayed.I decided to watch a movie,I left my room and went downstairs to the living room to watch a movie on Mzone.
  • I was half way in the movie when I heard the door bell ring
  • Finally she is here!!
  • I rushed to the door thinking it was Olivia but it turned out to be the Devil himself in front of my door.
  • "What do you want?!!Mason isn't home"I whispered yelled at Jace without letting him in.
  • "Oh I didn't know"He replied nervously.
  • "Now you know"I snapped shutting the door half way.
  • "Can I come in please?"He asked in a low tone.
  • Arrgh I can't help it
  • I want him
  • Nah I don't think so
  • Maybe because I just want company
  • "Okay,come in"I soothed walking away from the door back to the coach.
  • "Thank you"He gushed with a huge smile beaming on his face.
  • I clearly ignored him and continued watching the movie,it was a romantic one.He sat close to me on the couch making me wonder why
  • What kind of temptation is this
  • We were watching the movie together,when a kissing scene occured,I found a pair of eyes staring at me making me feel uncomfortable.
  • "Why are you staring at me?"I asked nervously.
  • "Because I wanna kiss you!"He replied with a straight face.
  • "What..I couldn't complete my statement before he smashed his lips against mine,I didn't respond to the kiss because my brain was turned off immediately..
  • His lips tastes like strawberry
  • What?!!
  • "I'm sorry,I shouldn't have kissed you "He apologized quickly.
  • I placed my lips on his again and kissed him,our lips moved in sync,he pulled me close and held my waist,kissing and biting my lips
  • Arrrgh his lips are so good
  • Bitch stop this shit right now
  • I stopped it and stood up immediately to my room,blushing on my way all along
  • Jace Walker kissed me
  • OMG!!!
  • Is it bad that I want more
  • I wonder how my lips tasted like
  • Bitter?!
  • Stupid fever
  • As soon as I got to my room,I closed my door and screamed so loud because of enthusiasm,I still didn't believe it.I heard footsteps running upstairs to my room
  • "Mich!!Are you okay??"Jace and Olivia asked in unison.
  • Oh she is here
  • Good thing she came late
  • "I'm fine guys"I stated the obvious with a huge smile on my face.
  • "You got me scared for a second"Jace gasped holding his chest.
  • Awwwn he cares!!
  • "Why are you smiling"Olivia asked.
  • "Umm.....umm.."I stuttered.
  • "Is the kiss the reason for your stuttering?"He chuckled.
  • Why did you tell?!
  • Olivia's eyes widened as though they wanted to pop out of the sockets as she heard it,she took a quick glance at him and then at me and gave me the happy"when did this happen"kind of look.
  • "Bye,Muffin"He pecked me and left and ofcourse he didn't leave without giving me his signature wink.
  • Muffin?!!
  • I was left startled and of course very excited,maybe this whole thing was just my imagination.
  • Fortunately,it wasn't because I was brought back to reality by the big question.
  • "You kissed Jace Walker?!!!"Olivia asked screaming so loud.
  • "Shuuuusssh!!Yes I did,he kissed me first"I blushed,my cheeks like that of a tomato.
  • We instantly screamed together, jumping up and down like chickens.
  • "OMG!! I'm so excited,am more excited actually"She giggled.
  • "It is just a kiss,you know and besides he's still a player"I stated.
  • "Which is the beginning of your love story and he might have changed you know"She replied.
  • "You are not serious"I said rolling my eyes.
  • Maybe this is really the beginning of my love story
  • Nah he's a player don't fall for this.
  • Jace's POV
  • "Jaaaace!!"Noah,my little stepbrother came running to my room screaming my name.
  • "Wassup champ"I responded as I lowered to his level.
  • "Daddy is calling you"He answered shining his little teeth.
  • He's so adorable
  • "Okay"I replied leaving my room to the living room where my dad was.
  • So my dad is a bank manager,he also has a big hotel and supermarket with some other businesses so he is rich maybe filthy rich but it doesn't matter...
  • "Good evening, Dad"I greeted him ignoring Maria,my stepmum who hates me.
  • "Good evening to you too"Maria responded.
  • Bitch it wasn't for you
  • "Son,sit!"He said with his hands indicating such.
  • I wonder what's wrong
  • He cleared his throat before he dropped the bomb
  • "Maria and I have decided that your presence won't be needed in this house anymore"He stated with hands intertwined with Maria's.
  • My presence won't be needed here anymore?!!
  • Am I like a servant who gets kicked out??!
  • "Dad,I'm your son,your blood,you can't just kick me out like am some servant who you do not need his services anymore!!"I ranted.
  • "Wait,don't tell me Maria brought up this idea"I added glaring at her.
  • "She's my wife and your stepmother,show some respect!!"My dad demanded.
  • "No and I never will"I snapped standing up ready to leave.
  • "Calm down, Son"He pleaded.
  • "Son?!,did you just say Son?!,do you even know the meaning of that word?!,you call me your son and yet you both treat me like I'm adopted and now you want to kick me out!!To where exactly?? Obviously the streets,Thanks so much Father!!!"I ranted again.
  • I was trying as much as possible to keep my anger in check but I don't think that will be possible.
  • "Look,your father..."Maria added but I cut her short before she could finish her statement.
  • "Look,Miss Maria or whatever your name is!It will be best if you stay out of this,this doesn't concern a concubine who just got lucky,my father and I are having a conversation,even though my mum left me at a very young age, everything was still fine until you walked into his life and now you want to destroy it!!What's your problem huh?!!You think seeing me kicked out of my father's house will make your plans easier!!"I yelled at her clenching my fist.
  • "Jace!!!That's enough,now listen real good,I'm your father and I'm not actually kicking you out,I would never,you are actually moving out to a two-bedroom apartment I have arranged for you and maybe if your mother decides to show up someday,you both can live there"He explained which calmed me down alittle.
  • "You are just justifying your guilty actions,anyways thanks!!I understand my parents both feel my presence irritates them so I will leave but not to your house"I stated.
  • Dude!!WTF are you doing ?!!
  • He is your father,enjoy a little from his money and besides you get to bring girls to the house with no rules or whatsoever
  • Freeman!!
  • I decided to listen to my subconscious since it made sense besides I had no where to go.
  • "Okay fine,I will move to the apartment today if that is okay by you"I added finally giving up my rants.
  • "That's my boy!"He remarked tapping my back.
  • I'm still mad at you
  • My dad and I got to the apartment with my stuff and ofcourse Maria knew well enough to not follow us except she wanted more insults.
  • The apartment was nicely air-conditioned with a delightful ground floor, furnitures were already fixed into the house,a 84 inch LG Tv was in the living room with leather chairs,other furnitures and gadgets,the two rooms were spacious and ornate,the kitchen was well equipped with refrigerator and some cooking stuffs that I don't know
  • Lol I'm a guy don't blame me but I'm supposed to know
  • This house is more like a gift but it cant be compared to the mansion I lived in back there
  • I think I overreacted but whatever...
  • "Do you like the house?"He asked.
  • "Yeah,it's cool"I responded looking around.
  • "Good,fix yourself,I'm leaving,I transferred some cash into your account,if you need anything call me,okay?!"He said with some air of authority.
  • "I got it, thanks"I replied still feigning annoyance.
  • As soon as he left the house,I informed Mason of the good and bad news,he said he was going to come over.
  • Please come with Michelle
  • Wait what?!
  • Get your shits together
  • Players don't catch feelings remember?!!
  • Right!!
  • I think I like her,I think!!!.
