WASHINGTON METROPOLITAN HIGH SCHOOL***
Jaime and Layla sat in the class, each of them not uttering out a word.
Jaime glanced at Layla who was staring at the table as though there’s something fascinating about it.
He had managed to console her and her tears had subdued.
“How are you feeling now?” He asked, breaking the silence that ensued between them.
“I’m fine,” Layla said.
“Do you wanna talk about it?” He asked.
Layla shook her head.
“I understand. Just know if you need someone to talk to, I’ll be here for you” he muttered.
Layla took her eyes from the table to stare at him. She was expecting him to stare at her with pity or one kind of sad look.
But no, he was staring at her with some expression she couldn’t pinpoint. Admiration? She couldn’t even say.
“Thank you” she whispered.
Jaime stretched his hand and touched a bruise on her cheek, she cringed and moved her face away.
“Don’t you think you need to go to the school infirmary?” He asked.
“No, I’ll be fine,” she muttered.
Jaime stared at her for a while. Why does he feel like she’s hiding something?
“About Wyatt…” He tried saying but she quickly interrupted him.
“I don’t want to talk about it”
Jaime ignored her and continued.
“Do you love him?” He asked.
That question got Layla asking if she loved Wyatt. She likes him but could she call that love?
“I don’t know,” she replied truthfully.
“I just h@të him so much right now”
“You’ll be fine,” Jaime said, smiling sadly.
Can he even have a chance with her?
“Do you want to go to the class?” He asked, changing the topic.
“No, I’ll pass. I’ll just stay here till school is over” she said.
“Why?”
“I can’t go with this face, they all mocked me saying I’m ugly. I don’t think I’ll be able to take that again” she muttered.
Jaime smiled. He stood up and stretched his palm towards her.
“Let’s go Layla, don’t worry you’re safe” he said.
Layla stared at his hand before looking at him.
“C’mon” he urged.
Slowly, she placed her hand on his and he dragged her to her feet.
“Clean those years away and put on your beautiful smile. You need to show them you’re fine, you don’t have to look sad” he said.
Layla smiled before nodding.
They both went out of the class.
They got to the class and all eyes fell on them.
? Whoa! So, it’s Jaime now?
? I think it’s good this way, I h@të her with Wyatt
? Can’t believe she can still come to class with that ugly face of hers
Jaime held Layla’s hand tighter and Lilian didn’t fail to notice that.
“What’s wrong with Jaime? She’s Wyatt’s girlfriend from Christ sake” Mickey said beside her.
“They broke up already,” she said.
“What?”
Jaime faced Layla.
“See? Keep smiling, don’t listen to what others say”
“Thanks Jaime,” Layla said.
She went to her seat and Jaime went to his.
“So, can you tell me what’s Füçking going on? What if Wyatt was in the class? This wouldn’t have ended well, you know?” Mickey asked, scolding him.
“Wyatt is just a stupid he-goat” Jaime said.
“Could you believe he was dating Layla just to spite me?”
Mickey gasped, same with Lilian. Her guess was right after all.
“WTH!” Mickey exclaimed.
“Layla overheard his discussion with his friends, she’s so hurt right now” Jaime said.
“Poor girl, she must have been so hurt,” Mickey said.
Jaime nodded. He glanced at Lilian.
“What’s wrong with you?” He asked.
“She’s been that way since I arrived” Mickey chirped in.
“Is something wrong?” Jaime asked.
Lilian shook her head with a smile.
“I’m fine. I was worried about her, but it seems she’s fine with you by her side” she muttered.
“That jerk, he really deserves some beatings,” Mickey said.
“I’ll be going to my seat, see you later” Lilian said and stood up. She walked away.
“Isn’t she strange?” Jaime asked Mickey.
“How?” Mickey asked back.
Jaime sighed.
“Nevermind. How was your weekend?” He asked.

ITALY, AT THE HOTEL***
Silence descended the whole place after the confession.
Charles’ arm, which was around Hailey, loosened a bit as a result of the shock.
“I love you” Hailey repeated again.
“Hailey” he whispered, breaking the hug to look at the woman who had managed to capture his heart. The woman who was staring at him with the most affectionate look he had ever seen.
He still couldn’t believe his ears? She loves him? Like she really does??
This was like a dream come true for him, to him, this was the best thing he had heard in years.
Hailey’s heart was palpitating wildly as she waited for his reply. He wasn’t saying anything and that scared her off. Was she too fast?
She just couldn’t control herself as he wouldn’t stop driving her crazy with his words and actions.
Before she could say a word, Charles carried her in his arms like a baby, her legs instinctively going around his waist. His hand held her hips delicately before locking lips with hers.
Their lips moved together in a slow motion as they headed towards the room.
Hailey clings more tightly to him, balancing her arms on his shoulders, not wanting to let him go anytime soon.
They got to the bed and they both fell on it, without breaking the kiss..
Charles caressed her hips as he kissed her more harder as her strawberry taste filled his mouth.
Hailey’s heart was hammering hard against her chest as the kiss went deeper.
Charles broke the long kiss, staring into her beautiful eyes.
“I love you more, baby. More than you can ever imagine” he whispered.
He rested his forehead on hers and licked her lips slowly.
“Stop that” Hailey smiled.
“That’s gross,” she added.
Charles licked her lips again and she hit his chest.
“I love you” he muttered.
“Be my woman, Hailey Brooklyn”
Hailey smiled, caressing his neck slowly.
“I’ll be yours” she whispered.
Charles smiled widely before attaching his lips on hers again. This time, he didn’t waste time before pushing his tongue into her mouth.
Hailey welcomed his lips on hers happily as she kissed him back with the same vigor.
Their lips bit, teased and swiped romantically as they couldn’t get enough of each other.
To Charles, he doesn’t want this day to end. This was one of his happiest days.
He broke the kiss and his finger trailed on her lips.
“You’re the sweetest thing I’ve ever tasted, Hailey” he whispered.
“Me too, Charles” she whispered back.
He planted a kiss on her lips before placing his lips on her neck, sucking it deeply.
Hailey gasped softly as her hands got tangled up in his hair.
“I won’t break your heart, Hailey. I swear with my life” he whispered against her neck.
She smiled and held him closer to her as he continued sucking her neck.
