Cassie's POV
I turned and look at Rhonda, my anger boiled, she is getting too nosy for my liken, these few days.
What does it seem like? I asked as I turned to her, my face was paste with anger.
Cassie, did you kill Padgett's mother and you are planning of killing her too?
Yes, now that you know, you are going to help me...
Never, I will never be part of a crime, I can't possibly kill someone, and I will never kill anyone, not now, not even in the future. I can never be a murderer and if I were you, I will turn myself up.
What did you just say? I asked in anger, my fist clenched tight.
Yes, you heard me right, if you don't stop whatever you are doing I will be forced to tell everyone that you killed Padgett's mother and you are planning to kill Padgett.
Why are you acting like some saint?
Of cause, I am a saint, have I ever killed someone before? I really don't know you anymore, Cassie, you weren't like this before, but now you are turning into something else, and for what? All because of Cameron? Cameron doesn't...
I grabbed her throat, and as I pushed her onto the school girls' washroom floor, she struggles to get out of my grip.
Why are you acting like you are not interested in Cameron as well? I asked slapping my hand across her face, she screamed in pain but I really don't care.
Cas..sie... I...st...
You will not mess with me after now, you will keep your mouth shut, you will not tell anyone that I killed Padgett's mother and that I planned... My words didn't finish because I saw that Rhonda is no longer moving, I free my hand from her neck
Rhonda!!!
Rhonda!!!
Rhonda!!!
I called but she didn't move. Oh no! I can't believe she is not moving. No! It can't be, I can't possibly murder another person because of Cameron, no! I really hate it, I really hate this stupid life of mine, I can't go to jail, I don't want to go to jail. I said as I run out of the girl's stall, leaving Rhonda on the floor, is a good thing, no one came into the stall before I left and no one saw the two of us together, I am sure they are busy cheering Cameron and Padgett, the new queen.
Ray's POV
Throughout the morning I saw Sutton acting so cold, especially after that public display of affection between Padgett and Cameron. Now we are having lunch, classes were not that serious because we are planning for our exam and the upcoming prom, as I and Sutton entered the cafeteria, the first people we set our eyes on are Cameron and Padgett, they are eating together and laughing like couples, they are, it's barely few hours, but I really don't think it's today they started dating.
I noticed that Sutton couldn't stand it or watch them doing that, he stand immediately and left the cafeteria, I watch him, and I felt pity for him as I walked behind him.
Are you okay? I asked him
Yeah, I'm fine. He muttered and stand to leave, I heard his hand, do you still love Padgett?
Yes, I know, I am not supposed to but the truth is, I really don't know the reason, I fall in love with her, and for the first time my heart longed for someone, I realized that the person is not in love with me.
I can't say I know how you feel but I understand that you're hurting, all I know is that time heals all wounds and with time, you will forget all about Padgett and find love again and that reminds me, I heard that our exam timetable is out which means very soon, we all, are going to the university and you might meet some pretty hot girls that might make you fall in love again.
I said trying to cheer him up, and he smiled. You shouldn't mind me, I am sure, I will get over her and I promise I am not going to get into the happiness of Padgett and Cameron, they deserve each other, so I will just let my feelings die naturally.
That is perfect, so come on, let's go catch some fun. I said pulling him, as we make it towards the park.
Padgett's POV
For the past weeks, I have been really excited because I and Cameron are now couple, he is helping me to study harder for our further coming exam, he really wants the both of us to attend the same university and I am really learning hard because I want to be with him, if I get a scholarship it will easy for us to be together, I won't want to be a burden on anyone, I know his parents provided everything for me but I still do not want to be a burden.
Hey beauty, you should rest now, come over here, let's eat, you working yourself too much. Cameron said dragging me from my book.
Mi Corazon, you should wait, I really want to finish this before I eat.
I know, but for now let's eat, so now, up! Up! He pulled me harder.
Cam! You should stop, I really need to do very well in my academics, and I really need the scholarship, getting a scholarship will make me attend the same university as you.
Stop talking nonsense, even if you don't get the scholarship, you will still go to the same school with me, so stop thinking you need the scholarship to get into that school.
And you think, mom and dad will not push through with the adoption? If I depend fully on them. I said looking at him, he gasped for air, I know he understands me, I really want to be independent, if I depend fully on his parents, and they finally adopt me, I know there is no way, we could be in a romantic relationship and there is no way, his parents will let us if we become siblings, who thou fuck get married to their siblings and come to think of it, I am really not in the same world with him, he is from a rich family while I am just a poor orphan. I sighed in frustration having pictured all the scenery that could make it impossible for me and him to be together.
Hey back to earth!!! Cameron said, snapping his finger in front of me. What are you thinking about?
Nothing, let's go eat fast, so I get back to my books because I heard that you are the best in the entire school.
Hm! Can you imagine, I thought the bible said women be submissive to their husbands and that the head of the family is the man.
I stared at Cameron, I really don't see the reason for bringing this up, the last time I checked I am not married.
Stop staring, you should know I am the head, so I should take first while you take second, so you are allowed to beat Betsy but me, no, because I am your husband, you don't want people to look down on your man...
I laughed heartily as he feed me, I kind of laughed it when he feeds me, pulled me on his legs when tickling me; when he kisses me, everything just felt nice, right now, we are done with our exam, and it was finally a day to prom, I and Cameron are always the only one at home, so right now, we are watching the stars when my phone ping.
Hey! Is mom!!! I said, staying with them for these pasted months, I have gotten used to calling her mom and uncle, I call him that as well.
Go on and pick it. Cameron urged me.
Hello mom!!!
Oh daughter, how are you?
I am fine ma and how are you?
Is Cameron there? She asked.
Yes, mom! I turned it on speaker.
Hi mom!
Hi son! I am super excited to know that you are now graduating, I am sorry that I and your dad aren't around to witness your big day but not to worry, we have great news for you two.
Great news!!! The both of us screamed.
Not to worry, it's super exciting news, I know you will love it. She said, just give the phone to Cameron.
Oh! I stretch to him as he places it on the earpiece. Son! How are you?
I am fine mom, what is it? I heard Cameron ask looking all worried, then his face go sour, I really have no idea what his mom told him, but I bet he doesn't like it. The only word he said was.
Mom, I can't, I bet I have to disobeyed this time.
What is it, Cameron? Did Mom say something bad?
