White sleeveless dress with lacey pastel pink at the bottom. Oh and my black leather jacket, and of course, black high heels. And hey there's still accessories!!
Jane stood in front of the mirror, checking herself up to down again and again and again.
"Babe, you're checking yourself out more than I do to you." Luke winked as he wrapped his arms around my waist from behind. Oh boy, that's the effect he has on me.
"I'm just nervous. I'm gonna attend school as The Queen. Do you know that's one of the amazing things that has ever happened to me!" I squeaked.
"Don't worry, sweetheart. I'll be with you the whole day. Wait, one of the amazing things?" He grinned knowingly.
"Because you're also one of the amazing thing that God had gave me." I turned back and smiled at him, causing him to tighten his grip around my waist.
"You're my first and last amazing beautiful girlfriend that I ever have." He said, ducking his red face into the crook of my neck, tracing kisses from my earlobe, down my neck and to my collarbone. Yikes, boy you got me turned on.
"Alright, lover boy. We gotta hurry if we don't want to miss lesson." I pulled away from his warm embrace before we both do something irrational. You know what I mean.
"Why hurry, it's TGIF!! We can totally skip school, sneak out and party!!" he suggested.
"It's too early to party. Plus we can leave for home after lessons, why hurry. I still want my grades so come on, let's head out." I smirked, interlocked my hands with his.
-
"Everyone is staring, wanna say something to distract them?" I asked, trying to hide away from those envious eyes.
"Well what can I say. My girlfriend is so hot, how can they not notice?" he faced me, giving me his trademark - his shockingly amazing dazing smirk. Oh boy, that's why you got me falling head over heels. I simply smiled and walked towards the hallway to grab my books. He caught up quickly after saying 'hi' to some of his friends and managing some remarks about me being the Queen.
"Sup loving couples!" I greeted as soon as I saw Vivy and Ryder making out beside my locker.
They immediately broke off as soon as I made my presence known. Ha gotcha, still wanna deny not in a relationship with him uhh? I eyed Vivy as she kept avoiding my gaze. Something is obviously going on for sure.
"So how's it going for you uh, Queen?" Ryder smirked. Geez, these boys sure like smirking.
"It's okay, I guess. Wait, actually it's not because everyone is staring." I ducked my head into Luke's shoulders, blushing.
"You better get use to that now because from now you're the Queen that rules this school." Tim said as he appeared with Aidan and Darren, giving the bad boy vibes and hence, as usual, getting chicks' attentions.
"Yup as well as having us as best friends." Darren winked.
"God, what would I do without you all?" I teased.
"Alright, let's head for class. Music is it?" Luke asked.
"Yeah, let's hurry or else detention." Aidan sulked.
I walked hand in hand with Luke, behind Vivy who was really quiet and Ryder > note: hand intervened too. What just happened? She sure have some explaining to do later on.
***
"Um you guys go ahead for lunch first, I need to go to the toilet." Vivy said.
"I'll come too." I said while hurried after Vivy.
"Hey." I entered the toilet, seeing Vivy touching up her makeup.
"Hi."
"So when were you going to tell me?"
"I... I'm sorry Jane. I didn't mean to hide it from you. I just... I'm not sure if this is right."
"What do you mean by 'right'? You meant if Ryder is really interested in you?"
She nodded her head. Aww girl.
"But you're serious in him, aren't you?"
"Yeah but y'know, he's a player. He ain't going to change that for me like Luke changed for you."
"I know it's difficult for you to trust him but love is rare. If it's here now, you're going to take that chance of having your heart belongs somewhere. People change, you just got to give them a chance."
"Really?"
"I'm 100% sure, besides I can see that Ryder really likes you."
"Okay, I guess I have to give him a chance."
"Alright, now shall we go? The prince awaits." I teased.
She blushed and linked arms with me while heading out for the café.
***
"Hey what took you so long?" Luke whispered in my ear when I took my seat beside him.
"Nothing, just assuring Vivy to accept Ryder." I smiled.
"Ha that boy seriously should grow some balls and ask her out, instead of making her feel so inferior and doubtful."
"Yeah, so what have you got me for lunch?"
"Your favourite mushroom cream spaghetti."
"Thank you!" I leaned in to give him a peck on his cheek.
We sat in the round table which is located in the middle of the café which obviously was for the popular ones.
"Get out of my way!" A high-pitched voice shrieked suddenly.
"That should be you, Devon. You're not the Queen bee in this school anymore. Get a life and fuck off." Another voice interrupted.
Before my senses kicked in, I was already walking towards the commotion.
"Hey stop. What's happening?"
"It's none of your business, Sherlock." Chris hissed.
"Well, she still thinks she's the Queen of this school and thought she still have the power of making people do whatever she orders." A guy from the crowd shouted and a few acknowledgement came by.
Before I could see tears rolling down her face, Chris made a dash for the nearby girl's toilet.
"Hey, I'm going to take a look. Don't worry about me, I'll be fine." I took my bag and headed for the same way Chris went after Luke briefly nod his head.
***
I pushed the door open then close. I spotted Chris sitting at a corner with her legs against her chest and her face buried in between.
"Hey, are you okay?" I asked genuinely with concern.
"Fuck off." She spat.
I knelt down beside her, placing a hand on her arm.
"You know what, I'm sick of your nonsense but if you are going out with your face full of black stains because of the mascara, then I'm sure to laugh my ass off at you."
"Why are you doing this?"
"I'm not doing anything."
"Why are you being so kind to me? After all those that I've done to you?" She lifted her head up and stared at me.
"Well I think you deserve a tight slap from me but I won't. Because of you, I got my heart broken but you also gave me a chance of falling in love again."
"You should hate me. You should not haven't came in. I'm too ashamed to face you right now."
"Of course you should be ashamed, look at you. Where's the confident and beautiful lady that always bullied me?"
"You really don't blame me?"
"I did blamed you but everything is over right now."
"I'm sorry, I really am."
"I know, so come on. I'll help you touch up your face. Oh and I've an extra set of clothes at my locker. Wait for me." I said after seeing her white blouse stained with slimy things that come from the nose after crying and her stained lipstick and mascara.
She nodded and soon I returned within 5 minutes and get on with work.
***
"I'm done. Now look at yourself in the mirror."
"Wow." She stared at the mirror which reflected her in my vintage tank top and short jean shorts. I helped tie her hair up in a French braid and gave her a day look makeup. Now she look normal yet stunning.
"Now, shall we get going?"
"Thank you Jane."
"You're welcome."
"Before you go, I want to tell you some things."
"Sure."
"First, I'm really sorry for being mean at you."
"You've said that a million times already."
"Let me finish. Second, Danny left for Germany because he was ashamed to be here."
"Okay, anymore?"
"Last, Luke was drunk once when I found him at our, now yours, dorm. He said something about you."
"What did he say?"
"He said along those lines that you couldn't remember him anymore, and that you wouldn't look at him the same way you did when you were younger. Are you guys childhood sweethearts or something?"
"No I don't think so. If we were, I would have remembered."
"Oh then maybe I heard wrongly. Sorry."
"It's okay. Let's get going."
***
After school, Luke and I headed for my home.
"Mom, we're back!" I shouted.
"Hey honey, how's school?"
"Good."
"Oh okay I was just cleaning..." She stopped abruptly when she came down. "Hey Luke."
"Hi Julie." He smiled and so my mom returned the favour.
"Mom?"
"Yeah?"
"Luke's my boyfriend now."
"Really? That's wonderful. You guys should have got together long time ago if not for..." She stopped as if what's she going to say next is a secret that cannot be revealed.
"Jane, could you go up first? I would like to have a word with Luke." she asked.
"Yeah sure." I turned to Luke as he mouthed, I'll be fine to me.
******** Luke Galen's POV ********
"Luke?"
"Yes?"
"Have you told her yet?"
"Nope, but I was thinking if it's alright to tell her now."
"I guess you can. But if possible could you do me a favour too?"
"Sure, why not."
She leaned in and whispered something that made my eyes bulged.
And guess what I was thinking:
Oh shit...
******** Jane Sherlock's POV ********
What is it that mom wants to talk about?
He broke my thoughts as he entered my room and sat beside me on my blue couch.
His mind seems far away.
I scooted to him so that our arms and thighs touched. I put my hand in his which were held in fists, then slowly, he caved in and relaxed.
"I have something to tell you, Jane."
Oh no.
Is he going to break up with me?
What did my mom told him?
What the eff is going on?
Shit.
"I'm in love with you." His words made relief washed my face.
"But..." Oh man, what the hell!?
"I've a confession to make."
Is he going to tell me that he cheated on me?
Wait I'm not ready to hear all these. I need a break.
With these wild thoughts in my head, I made a dash for my balcony.
"Jane!"
I immediately broke down into tears when he grabbed me by my waist and pulled me to my bed.
"Are you going to break up with me?" I stuttered.
"What! No!" He shouted frantically.
"Then what were you going to tell me?"
He walked to the other side of my bed and pulled me so I was hugging his right side of his body, head on his chest while his arms are wrapped around me tightly, as if he's scared that I will run away again.
"I have to tell you. But promise me you aren't going to run away again, please?" This time, he pulled away and stared at me. His eyes were full of emotions that I can't decipher.
I don't trust my voice because he would have recognise the weakness in it so I nodded before returning to his arms.
"I know you're not ready to accept what's coming from my mouth but I have to, since your mom has already approved."
My mom? What has she got to do with this?
"Jane Sherlock, you've known me since we were young. We were childhood sweethearts."
We were childhood what!?
"What!" I shrieked as I sat up, facing him with an unbelievable look.
"Let me finish this, please?" He pleaded.
I nodded, looking down at our intervened hands, he gave a slight squeeze before returning to whatever he was saying.
"We were really close and your parents always tease us, saying that we'll be the cutest couple when we grow up. However, one day I was supposed to meet you at your house. The door wasn't locked so I walked in and up to your room. But meanwhile, I passed by your dad's study room and found out that your parents were quarrelling. Your mom (Julie) was shouting at your dad (Paul). I overheard that your dad have been embezzling his company's money. He did that because he didn't have any extra income for his mistress and their child." He looked at me but I asked him to continue.
I couldn't believe that we're actually childhood sweethearts.
I couldn't believe that my dad would do such things too.
It's too ridiculous.
"They then found me outside the room so they pulled me in and start explaining to me. Your dad told me off and said that if I were to tell anybody else, he would forbid us to see each other again. Therefore, I kept it a secret. After awhile, your dad had passed away. You were so depressed and traumatic because you witnessed his death. Soon, you gotten yourself sick despite the continuous nightmares. After a few days, you recovered, but when I visited you, you asked who am I. I was so shocked and sad but your mom told me that the doctor had diagnosed you to be suffering from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, which is known as PTSD. I don't know why you somehow deleted me from your memory, as well as your life. Ever since, I've been checking on you to see if you were any better of if you're doing well. It upsets me when you're with Danny. I wanted you to remember me and all the things we've done in the past but also, I was scared that you will be reminded of the accident." He finished, then slowly look at me with sadness and helpless.
"I... I barely have nightmares of my dad's accident already. I was healed. And I really still haven't got back any memories of you. Except the few days after I saw your sketch book. How did we really meet?"
He took out his sketch book and flipped to the first page.
"The very first time we met was at the playground down town. I fell down from the swing and you helped me up. You tried talking to me but I felt inferior because I was an adopted kid. The next day you bought your lunch box and shared with me. Since then, we kept hanging out and we reckoned each other as best friends, naively thinking that it would be forever. I've liked you since then and we kept hanging out each day, playing the swings, building sandcastles on the fake sand pit and so on. Everyone in town always compliment us. But everything changed since your dad passed away."
"It sucks isn't it?"
"What?" He questioned.
"That I couldn't recognised my own childhood sweethearts."
"It is."
"So my mom also decided to keep it from me, fear that after I recall everything, it will worsen my condition?"
"Yeah."
"And you dumbly agreed their condition. Choosing to see me in be with a jerk and decide that you will play the noble man?"
"No, I didn't mean that. I was just..."
I silenced him by placing my lips on his. He gladly move his lips against mine.
I pulled back, trying to gasp for air.
"And..."
"What is it?"
"I'm sorry."
"Why? It's not your fault."
"Okay then but..."
"Ugh!"
"I love you."
"I love you too!"
We leaned in for another kiss.
