Chapter 7 Trevor Fear

  • Chapter-7 Trevor Fear
  • Troy winked at Danica. Her heart skipped a beat.
  • She could feel the lump in her throat as her cheeks grew hot in embarrassment. She failed to see the tint of red shade on Troy’s cheeks while thinking about her own shyness. “How—how long will this pink dye last?” she managed to ask him in a meek voice.
  • “About twenty-four hours,” he answered and stood up from the couch. “I made it especially for Gabrielle, but look, it was us who ended up suffering. I guess our habit of dragging each other everywhere didn’t change.” He chuckled lightly while eyeing Danica’s pink dyed hair, which made her look very cute, almost like a barbie doll. Troy would admit that Danica was naturally beautiful, and she never failed to make his heart skip a beat with her original beauty.
  • Danica only hummed in response and stormed out of his room.
  • Meanwhile, Marker David, Troy's assistant, nervously approached Trevor, who was waiting for Danica in the living room. "Um, what should I do about this, Mr. Bennett?"
  • "Do what?" Troy looked up at the glasses-wearing young assistant.
  • "The editors and fans are going crazy over sir and Ms. Waylon's live kiss. They want me to make an official statement to clarify the situation," Marked explained.
  • Trevor smirked as an idea surfaced in his head. "I have the perfect statement for you." This is the only thing he could do to make improvements in the love life of his best friend. "Statement should go like 'Troy Kingston found his long-lost love after years', okay?"
  • Marker gulped, fearing his boss's wrath for making such a bold move without taking his permission. "But wouldn't sir get mad at me?"
  • "Don't worry. Why fear when Trevor is here?" Trevor gave a pat on his shoulder and made his way towards Troy's bedroom to look for Danica.
  • "You are what that causes me fear, Mr. Bennett," Marker mumbled under his breath before entering Troy's social media accounts, which was handled by him, and found out Danica's account. She didn't have any other social media account other than Instagram, so he followed her account with Troy's and liked a few of her posts to make the upcoming statement seem believable. Then he posted a tweet on Twitter with the same statement as Trevor instructed him to. "Now I leave it in the hands of God." With that, he rushed out of the mansion in a hurry because he knew his boss would chew him out once he saw the tweet.
  • On the other hand, Trevor found Danica standing in the hallway, lost in thoughts. "What are you thinking?" he asked, snapping her out of her fallacy. Danica glared at him which made him give her a teasing look. “Enough glaring. This is your room.” He smiled as he pointed to the moulded door a few steps next to Troy’s room.
  • "Thanks." Danica took a few steps towards her new room before making a stop. "By the way, Trevor, I heard that Gabrielle proposed to you first," Danica started, trying to hide the sinister smirk on her face.
  • "Yeah, so?"
  • "Why did Gabrielle have to propose? Why didn't you do it? Were you too afraid that she would reject you?" she spoke up which silenced Trevor. She turned around as she further spoke, "I guess you weren't much of a man then. Coward."
  • "You know how I was like back then. I didn't have much confidence in myself," he told her.
  • "Well, now you have. You must have enough confidence to be a model, I suppose." Danica shrugged.
  • "Why are you being so mean? You weren't like this."
  • "Well, letting the hair dye fall on me was a mean move too, don't you think?" she retorted.
  • Trevor let out a sigh and asked, "Is that how you're going to get your revenge?" She nodded. "Well, you got it. Now, are we even?"
  • "Have we ever been at odds, former bestie?" Danica joked and fist-bumped with him.
  • "Yet, I get the credit for letting you have a kiss with Troy," he teased. "And—" he paused before he spilled out the beans about the official statement. As Danica raised an eyebrow, he shook his head and said, "Nothing. I forgot."
  • Rolling her eyes, she replied, "I didn't ask for it." With that, she got into the fully beige-colored room. It was designed beautifully, with a king-sized bed in the middle of the room. Her luggage was placed near the closet room, which she had to organize. As her rapid breathing refused to stop, she sucked in a deep breath after closing the door and leaned against the door, locking it properly.
  • A smile formed on her lips as she remembered her first-ever kiss. She subconsciously touched her lips and started grinning like she was back in her high school days. It happened during the high school freshmen party. She got really drunk that day, and Troy was trying to take care of her. When she was completely out of her mind, she pulled Troy by the collar and smashed her lips on his all of a sudden. It was Troy’s first kiss too. Although she could not remember for the life of her if Troy ever kissed her back that night. The following morning, she apologized several times to Troy, who laughed it off and forgave her. But he never stopped teasing her about it, and she never forgot the fuzzy feeling of his lips on her.
  • And now, it was her second kiss, with the same person, but this time it was on-screen—she kissed Troy in front of several people. She had no idea what effect it would stir in her or Troy’s life.
