KRIS:
I walked out of the bathroom to see Lucian on my bed. His eyes were closed and he was exhaling softly.
He must be sleeping, I concluded.
Deciding to join him, I walked towards the edge of the bed but just then, my stomach rumbled.
Oppps! I need me some food.
Shuffling out of the room and down the stairs, I walked into the kitchen where I got snacks from the fridge and sat on a kitchen stool, ready to devour them. I was happily munching on the oreos till I felt eyes on me.
Looking up I saw Lucian staring at me with an amused look.
"Ooh…err...hi.” I grinned toothily "Foodie.” He mouthed "It's not my fault. I just can't help that I get hungry all the time.” I pouted and he shook his head smiling.
He walked towards me, placed himself between my legs, his hands holding on to my waist. Taking a single cookie from the bowl of cookies beside me, he placed it between his teeth and brought his face closer to mine. I pulled him closer to me and bit half of the cookie with my lips slightly grazing his before pulling away.
Placing a little peck on my cheeks, he pulled away and was walking towards the door.
"Where are you going?”
I asked, my brows knitting together in confusion.
"Home."
"Ohh," I said in a small voice laced with disappointment.
"You want me to stay.” He stated more than asked, turning to look at me with an expressionless gaze.
"Pretty please?” I gave him my best puppy eyes, hoping he'd fall for them.
"You'll have to convince me more.” He leaned on the kitchen door, his lips stretching out in his signature smirk.
Damn him. Everyone would fall for my puppy eyes but obviously not Lucian.
Jumping off the stool, I ran to him and jumped on him wrapping my arms around his neck and legs on his waist.
He caught me without effort which had me wondering if I was really that light weighted?
I need to eat more, I mentally noted.
With his arms holding onto me, I rested my head on his shoulder and pressed my lips to his neck.
"Please?" I muttered and he chuckled.
"You'll have to do better.” I could totally hear the smirk dripping from his voice.
I hate him. My subconscious rolled her eyes at that.
I raised my head and stared at him blankly. He winked and wetted his lips. Almost as if my eyes have a reflex that alerts them when he licks his lips, they snap to them.
Oh God. They look so soft. Can I eat them?
As if hearing my thoughts, he said "you know you want to.”
Like it was the motivation I needed, I attached my lips to his and kissed long and deep, hoping it was enough to convince him that he needed to stay.
Finally breaking from the kiss, I stared at him and he smirked. I flicked my tongue against his lip ring and he closed his eyes.
"Don't do that again.” He said hoarsely.
But me being me, I loved tempting people to their breaking point.
Hence, I flicked my tongue against it again and sucked on his bottom lip, enjoying every bit of it till he let out a low groan.
"You like tempting me.”
"I love tempting you.” I clarified.
He nodded slowly. "We'll see about that.” Was his sensual response before smacking my ass.
"Will you stay?” I gave him my best puppy dog eyes with a pout.
Yeah… I finally remembered what I was supposed to be doing.
"Well, seeing that you asked me nicely, I will think about it.”
What??
I stared at him wide eyed with mouth agape but he smirked.
"You look so Adorable.”
"I know.” I grinned.
Holstering me on his hips, he placed his hands around my waist and began walking towards the stairs.
Yay!! He's staying.

"OMG!!! You're dating Lucian.” Lexi squealed, running to me.
It was as if everyone suddenly stopped what they were doing and started looking at us.
I was actually standing by my locker trying to get something out.
"Ohh...Lexi!" I smiled sweetly. "I don't think the whole school heard you. How about you say it a little louder?” I replied in a sarcastic tone, rolling my eyes.
"You have to tell me all the details after class.” She grabbed my arm bouncing happily like she just won a lottery.
"Whatever.”
After closing my locker, she held onto my arm and dragged me into our English class.
The entire lesson was spent with Lexi trying to know how *Lucian had proposed to me*. Her words not mine.
I gave her the little bit of information I could while trying to focus on what was being taught.
After the class, I practically ran to my next class, not wanting Lexi to hold me down any minute longer.
Getting to the class, I walked to the back and took my seat. As soon as my butt made contact with the chair, Jake strode into the class, scanning the room with his eyes before they finally landed on me.
He strolled towards me and took the seat next to mine.
"Hi.” I greeted chirpily "So...you're with Lucian now huh....” He stared intently at me, raising his brows.
"Err...yeah?”
I fucking hated my friends. Tell them one thing and the whole school hears about it. Well, they were not always that way but then, news of Lucian was hot cake in Queens high.
But my ad for new friends is still placed.
"Why are you so stubborn?” He asked coldly.
"Excuse me?" I asked quizzically, raising my eyebrows.
"Didn't I tell you to stay away from him? But instead you did the opposite.” He slammed his fist on the desk making me jump.
"You. Have. No. Right. To. Make. Decisions. For. Me.” I fired back through clenched teeth.
"Okay.”
With that he got up and stormed out of the class, leaving me behind to face the eyes of the gossip mongers called students.
What an asshole. Who the fuck does he think he is? Walking into my life and trying to tell me what and what not to do? I thought to myself, fuming.
As if that wasn't enough, during lunch break I walked into the Cafeteria to see The Bitch herself, Tiana at my usual table.
I wasn't about to leave my spot for her so I waltzed towards her. All the while, she had a sugar-coated smile on her face.
"Well, who do we have here?” She asked, smiling.
"Queen Kris.” I replied, rolling my eyes.
"Ha. Not even close. Such titles aren't meant for people like you.”
I'd had enough of her.
"Say what you're here for and get out.” I stared at her blankly.
She stood up and came to stand right in front.
"You've finally managed to get your filthy hands on Lucian." I smiled at that. "Just know he's only using you. Once he knows you're not worth it he'll leave you.” She added.
"Ha. Sounds like you are trying to console your little pathetic self that you've lost him. Awww, poor baby.” I pouted, making a sad face and I heard laughter behind me.
Turning around I saw Chris watching the show.
"But don't worry. Maybe I'll tell Valentine about you. That's if he so much as spares a glance your way or maybe Chris but only if he's had a change of heart about tapping what he's already tapped.” Now, it was my turn to smile sweetly while she fumed with anger.
I walked around her and took my seat with Chris still snickering beside me.
She glared at both of us before storming away.
She needed to understand that I wasn't one of the girls she bullied.
"Why's Queen B's face so red and ugly?” Paige asked as she sat down.
She walked in as soon as Tiana left. And Queen B was the name she gave her meaning Queen Bitch. Though I think that name was way too nice for her.
"Since when do you care?” I asked. Chris had gone to get food for us.
"Not that I care but I strongly feel it has something to do with you.” She narrowed her eyes on me.
"Of course. Duh… she came to lament about losing Lucian to me.” I rolled my eyes and Paige burst into laughter.
"About Lucian" Chris chimed joining us. "You owe us all the Juicy details.” He waggled his brows.
I mentally facepalmed.
Yup... the ad for new friends still on.
