"I don’t mind dying in your hands sweetie," he replied.
Allison exaggerated a gagging gesture in response to Kace’sment, pretending to be utterly disgusted. Kace threw his head back as he burst intoughter, unable to contain himself, thoroughly enjoying her yful reaction.
"Whatever, I’m noting here again. Make sure to take your drugs. I have to go to ss," she said, walking back inside the bedroom to pick up her backpack, and then left.
"She didn’t even say she woulde visit me once. Maybe I shouldn’t have told her I’ve recovered," Kace thought to himself with a sulked expression.
As soon as Allison left the entrance of the house, her phone dinged with a message notification.
Already having an idea of who it could be, she still brought it out to read it.
<i>Derek—Where are you?!!!</i>
Allison hissed, pocketing her phone as she ignored the text.
Quickly, she took a cab to college.
In half an hour, she arrived.
Allison checked the time on her phone and saw that she still had an extra half an hour before her sses began.
Unfortunately, just as Allison was running to her ss to save a seat for herself, she noticed someone familiar from the corners of her eyes.
It was Derek, and he was marching towards her with such an aggravated look, that Allison had to halt her steps and face him head-on.
When Derek stopped in front of her, she instinctively took a few steps back to keep a distance between them.
"Where are youing from?!" He bellowed as he red down at her, his red hair dangling above his forehead.
"I went to work," she replied with a defensive stance, taking an extra step away from him.
Due to Derek’s loud voice earlier, he’d already attracted the attention of other students around as they stopped to watch what was going on.
"You went to work? What kind of work?" He questioned.
Allison peered at him from under hershes but she looked away, not wanting to make eye contact with him.
"I’m asking you a question!!" He demanded.
Allison aggressively inhaled, then exhaled, trying to calm down her nerves. His loud and demanding tone was starting to annoy her, but she couldn’t do anything to shut him up, or else he would threaten her with a step once again.
"Ms. Selene had a photo shoot today, and she wanted me to do her makeup. That’s where I’ming from," she replied, biting her tongue to swallow her anger.
Derek was yelling at her as if she was some child he’d let out of his sight for just a few seconds, only to find out she’d been messing around.
She wanted to kick him between his legs and continue running towards her ss.
"Are you sure you are telling me the truth?" He asked, his re pinning her on the ground. "Because if I find out that you’ve been lying about your whereabouts all this time, Allison, I’m going to make you regret it," he warned.
"Don’t tell me you believe what she just told you now."
They suddenly heard someone talk. When they turned their heads to their sides, they found Olivia walking towards them with skimpy clothes as always.
"She just told you that the actress she’s working for had a photoshoot? That’s where she’d been?" Olivia asked, sharing a look with Derek before her gaze settled on Allison. "This isn’t the first time she’d used that excuse before, Derek."
"Olivia..."
"You shouldn’t be lying to your boyfriend, bestie. If you continue to lie to him, he’s gonna think you are cheating on him," Olivia finished, with a smirk on her lips.
Instantly, Derek’s head snapped to Allison with a scowl.
"Are you cheating on me, Allison?" He questioned, feeling his blood boil at the thought that she might.
In their rtionship, he believed he was the only one who was allowed to mess around, while Allison wouldn’t. Which was why they agreed on an open rtionship in the first ce.
His fist clenched by his side at the thought that someone was touching Allison.
Allison ignored him, facing Olivia.
"Like you said, he’s my boyfriend. Who are you to have an opinion here?" she shot back at Olivia, her tone sharp and unyielding.
