o? Any other time Nova would make the girl nervous instead of him but today was the opposite. He was never nervous and thats probably the best part of him but now he wasnt so sure. A girl is like a doll to him. Play her. Use her. Then throw her away. He always had the girl he wanted and it was never a problem because of his awesome looks. But now as he stood in front of this girl-whos suicidal by the way- all he could think about is what he has to say next. It was like all his Casanova confident had drained out. And that is a serious problem. He looked at the girl in front of him. Abigail Moreau. A beautiful blond who somehow makes his heart leap and he didnt like what she did to him, in fact he hated it. Sometimes he thought shes adorable and then sometimes he would hate thinking like that. She was just like other girls, a toy. And once he has played with her, she would sure be out of his mind. Plus, shes not his type. Shes a stoner, so yeah, not his type. He doesnt go for stoned girls. Shes beautiful yeah, very beautiful and hell have her only once then hell throw her away like other girls. But just at that thought, his heart ached. Why? He had no fucking idea. She cleared her throat, bringing Nova back to the present. Even the sound of her clearing her throat was beautiful. Everything about her made Nova different. She was unique. Shes jus- great! I sound like a pussy! He smiled at her and was about to answer her question when someone shouted Abby! Nova looked to his left and saw two girls and a guy coming towards him-Abby. One was a blond with blue eyes. The other was African-American but yeah, a hot black girl with olive skin, black curly hair and hazel eyes. They were both pretty hot but not as hot as Abby. And the guy, Ewe, he looked gay. All of them made their way towards Abby and him. Hey girl! The African-American one said, hugging Abby. Though Abby looked shocked to see them here but he didnt miss the happiness that was in her eyes too. Well at least there was someone who could keep her happy. What are you guys doing here? Abby asked happy and shocked. And she was smiling, a genuine smile which was pretty beautiful. It was a surprise. We joined here as well. Only to be with our best friend Said the blond one grinning. The gay boy hugged her. Nova scowled. He hated him already. We missed you Abby, so we thought of joining here with you He gave her a sheepish smile But then we got late all because of Leah here He said scowling at the blond one.

Leah smacked him on the arm Hey! It wasnt my fault that pervert was hitting on me Yeah well it wasnt his fault. Any guy even a 40 year old would have a boner if you rub yourself against him He snapped. Well you were no help! He wasnt letting us through. I had to rub against him!! She snapped back. Nova just looked back and forth as they fought. Would you both shut up! Snapped the African-American girl. They both shut up instantly. So what really happened? Abby asked with her sweet, soft voice. He could hear her all day and wouldnt get bored. The guy who was checking our luggage at the airport, Leah kicked him in the grits! Gay boy accused. Arrgh for the last time, he was an asshole She then looked at Abby What really happened was the guy at the airport was messing with us kids for fun in perverted ways and he wasnt letting us go plus we were getting late. So I pretended to rub against him and then kicked him where the sun doesnt shine! Ooh, not a good place for a kick Nova thought wincing. He wouldnt like getting kicked there. He shuddered at the thought. But no point, we still reached here late. The asshole had deliberately put our things inside and then gave it to us 2 hours later. Then we had to find your house but we reached in time, got dressed and here we are. All tired and messed up Then the blond looked at him and gaped. Yeah its every girls reaction, his looks were that hot. Ego check. He told himself he was going to stop patting himself on the back for his wonderful qualities. After all it wasnt fair to the guys in his school. They couldnt help being inferior to him in every way. Who is this hawtie? She asked lowering her sunglasses. And thats when they all looked at him questionably. The African-American girl smirked Well he certainly is a hawtie huh Nova couldnt stop his own smirk. He liked the two girls already. Maybe he sometime could show them what a hottie like him can do. He wouldnt have a problem with that, after all its one of his talents. Ego check. Abby cleared her throat Um excuse mebut who are you? Nova looked at her. Damn! She looked so sweet and soft even her voice sounded like an angel. Im Nova He said extending his hand forward. But before Abby could shake his hand, gay boy shook it. Hey, Im Liam He said grinning and he really looked gay. Nova pulled his hand back Uh yea, nice to meet you Just so you know, hes my twin and hes gay. Back off Liam, He looks good enough to eat, plus he looks straight Leah said coming forward then frowned Your straight, right? All of them looked at him, waiting for his answer.

Iwhat! Of course I am! He said aghast at the thought. Boys are not on his sex list and never will be. He would never be gay, not now, not ever. No offence to gay people but hell rather fuck a girl than a guy. His mum is a Christian women and she would die if she ever thought that hes gay, not that he is. Its enough that she lets him have sex or else even that would have been on his mums reject list. Good cause itll be a waste if you were She said grinning Im Leah by the way The African-American girl pushed Leah aside and came in front of Nova And Im Ashley She too grinned. Nova couldnt stop his own smirk. Oh yea, these two will do great things. Things down his pants. Uh guys, Im gonna go sit. Abby said walking around them but Nova caught her arm No.. He said suddenly. Abby frowned at him. I mean, I wanted to ask whether you remember me or not? He asked Uh Girl? You naw him? Ashley asked with her different accent. Abby looked at Nova. Her gaze searching his. I dont knowbut you look so familiarhave we met before? Then her eyes widened Did I do something stupid while I wasum- -Stoned? Nova asked cutting her off. No, Ive met you on the bridge. I saved you from jumping down, remember? Nova hoped she remembered him. He wanted her to remember him. Girls never forget his pretty face. Nu-uh never. Argh, ego check. Abby looked at him with wide eyes while the others just gasped. Leah and Ashley spoke first. Wait, that was you? Ashley asked astonished. My hero Leah said flirtingly Novas gaze was fixed on Abbys which looked sad again. Can I speak to him? She said still looking at him then looked at the rest Alone The rest looked at her sadly then nodded and walked away. Nova and Abby stared at each other for a moment. For a moment nothing was obvious. All they could see is each other. Then Abby looked down I uhthat day I wasnt myself, I- -Its alright. You dont have to explain yourself to me He said cutting her off. He smiled at her when she looked up. Her eyes held so much sadness that even Nova could feel it of her. No one deserves something like this, especially a beautiful girl like her. He had a sudden urge to wrap her in his arms. Last time he comforted someone, was his sister who always knows whats in his heart. In front of his sister he lets his feelings out but in front of any other girl, he would always keep his guard up. He would always show other girls his Casanova side, never had he showed anyone the real Nova except his sister whos really close to him. Thanks She said My brother had told me that a guy saved me on the bridge but I didnt know it was you She paused and gazed down at the tray in her hand. I wanna thank you She looked back at him Thank you for saving me that day

Nova just stared at her. There was something about her that made Nova feel weak, something he hasnt felt for years. A small part that he had buried inside him has started to come out. And he didnt want that. Your welcome He said looking away from her. Well Im gonnago havemy lunch She said hesitating then walked off to her table were her friends were sitting. Nova looked at her retreating figure. She has a nice ass was all he could think before going back to his table. So Nova, we saw you with stoner girl. Whatd she say? Lee asked slapping Nova on the back. Yeah tell us Casanova, Whatd she say? Leo asked from his left. The twins were on his both sides and Nova was sitting in between them. Nova scowled. Both of them had him surrounded. She said that your twin friends are assholes He snapped. Boys laughed at them. Whenever the twins annoyed him, he would start making fun of them. Its the easiest way to get them off your ass. Plus he didnt like them interrogating about Abby. Very funny They both replied in union. Lee smirked I mean, the girl's an institution in this place. Every girl wants to be her, and every guy wants to nail her. Basically she's you, with tits Rick said snickering. Lee scowled. So really, whatd she say? Cole asked this time, ignoring them. Nova sighed Not muchshe thanked me for saving her that day Nova looked at her, where she was sitting silently, listening to her friends. I dont know butshe looks so sad, like something terrible happened with her, like someone broke her heart He whispered still looking at her. And it was true; there was something that broke her. A past maybe. He looked away from her and back at the boys who all were gaping at him with wide eyes, even his sister. What the hell happened to them? What? He asked confused. They all looked shocked and well, weirdly. Dont tell me the girl is getting to you Lee said first recovering. Nova frowned at him. He had no freakin idea what Lee was on about. What are you saying? Nova asked puzzled. You just said some emotional stuff Leo pointed out. Yeah, since when do you see peoples emotion Chloe said next. Leo snickered All you see is a hole to fit yourself in Nova scowled and so did Chloe Thats disgusting Chloe said making a face. Leo blushed Sorry He muttered. So what got you so emotional Casanova? Cole asked who was watching him intently from the start. Nova felt like Cole knew something that he didnt and that was frustrating.

He didnt like not knowing anything which is why he kept everyones information in the school and town. But now he has a new girl in school who he doesnt know a thing about. Nova rolled his eyes Me and emotional? He scoffed That doesnt fit in my category. Im not emotional; Im just stating the obvious. He said rolling his eyes. Cole looked at him intently. It was weird or Nova because Cole never looked at Nova like that. Cole smirked and shook his head. Anyways, did you guys hear about the school camping trip? Cole asked changing the subject. Leave it to Cole to save Novas ass. Nova gave him a grateful look which earned him a grin. I havent heard of that Chloe said not noticing the exchange between the boys. Yeah and Nova hadnt either. He knew about the school going to the trip but he didnt know it was a camping trip. Shame his student council slave didnt tell him. Hell just have to have a small chat with him. How come we didnt know and you know? Nova asked Cole. Cole rolled his eyes Because it hasnt been announced yet Right. One of these days, Cole is gonna get a punch for irritating Nova, not that he would really hurt his friend but still. And he was so willing to see his sisters wrath. And you know how? He asked again. Cole grinned Im a genius baby He said slapping the table. Nova couldnt help but roll his eyes. Show off. Chloe slapped him on the arm Genius my ass. Tell us how you know? Cole gulped. Ok maybe Nova was ready to see his sisters wrath but not Cole. HA! Sucker. Uh, I was hiding in the principles room when me and Nova were messing around. I heard Mrs. Evans and Mr. Kennedy talking about the camping trip. Theyre gonna announce it tomorrow maybe. The trip is next week. Camping huh? Sounds fun to me Nova said shrugging. Yeah Chloe said getting up. Well Im gonna go. Ill catch with you guys in class She pecked Cole on the lips and walked away. Cole watched her leave with a dazed smile. Nova rolled his eyes. Love can destroy people. He slapped Cole on the back of his head to snap him out of his trance and it worked. Cole glared at Nova while rubbing his head. Pay attention Nova snapped Now that Chloe is gone, we can talk about our plan. Oh yeah, they have been planning this for a week and now was the day to get the show started. Ohohooo Lee said smirking while rubbing his hands together in excitement. So we meet after school? No dufus. You all are gonna come to my house and were gonna go at 7 when everyone is out of school. I have an extra key to the school but were gonna break through. We cant let them know we entered the school with keys. Nova explained

Remind me again, why were doing this? Cole asked grinning. Nova grinned Revenge is sweet baby. The boys laughed. Nova had this planned for a long time, well a week almost. Even the boys were excited for this because they also wanted their revenge for what Mr. A hole did to them. Nova couldnt wait for tonight. Ever since Mr. Grey gave him the detention of cleaning the toilets, he wanted this revenge since then. Nova had set up a date for Mr. Grey with one of his older friend. She was smoking hot and well Nova told her to go to the club where Mr. Grey goes and hook up with him and she did. Nova couldnt help but snicker. She gave him the photos of their erotic night. Now all he had to do was stick them around the school while no one is there to notice. Martin walked up to their table from practice. Martin is in the basketball team but so is Nova. Nova is the captain of both football and basketball and while the rest are behind him. Whats up Casanova? Martin asked slapping nova on the back while sitting next to him. His hair was all damp from a shower. Nothing, we were just planning for tonight Nova said grinning. Martin chuckled Oh yeah definitely This will be so exciting Rick said We know! exclaimed the twins in union. Nova couldnt help but roll his eyes. Damn, but I have girls in my group.

***
Whats your location? Nova whispered in the walkie-talkie. They have been hiding in the bushes, checking out if someone is still in school. The security guard was asleep, so it wasnt much of a problem. Lee and Leo were the first ones inside, checking if everything is ok. And they were taking damn long. Nova didnt like waiting. Patience was never his friend. Coast is clear, I repeat, coast is clear Lee said through the walkie-talkie. Nova rolled his eyes at the dramatic words of Lee. Nova looked at the rest of the guys. Come on boys, get your butts in. All of them went around the school and jumped in through the window Lee had opened for them.Now this is going to be fun Martin said snickering. Right. Listen up boys. Martin and Rick will be going to the left side of the building. Lee and Leo will be in the hall and Me and Cole will be here in the classes. Got it? Got it They replied while running off with lots of pictures in their hands. Alright, Cole you do this classroom while Im in the next one, ok? Nova asked Yeah go Cole said, already starting to stick the pictures.

Nova ran to the next class sticking the pictures. He snickered while sticking them. In the picture was Mr. Grey (Naked) and Rachel, his old friend, doing it. It will be so fun when Mr. Grey will see them. Nova couldnt help but imagine the look on Mr. Greys face. Man, it would be priceless. After he was done, he went to the next class. Just as he entered, he stopped right on his tracks. What the hell? He thought frowning when he saw Abby lying on the teachers desk with her eyes closed. What is she doing here at this time? She shouldnt be here. What are you doing here? Nova asked with wide eyes. Her eyes snapped open and she sat up quickly. She looked at him with her red rimmed eyes, no denying shes stoned. And then she grinned. Okay, shes definitely stoned. Well well, if it isnt Nova She said grinning then frowned Its Nova right? Nova scowled. How can she forget his name? Girls never forget him. Nova is hot and no one, not even boys forget him. It really annoyed him that this girl, who is sitting in front of him, forgot his name. Yeah its me He said pissed but he didnt show it. But then he grimaced What are you doing here at this time? She frowned I was with Mrs. Evans then I went to the library and sat there for an hour or so and when I went to leave they had shut the doors and everything. When I went back to the library, it was closed too. So here I am, waiting for someone to save me and here you are, my knight in shining armor. She said the last part smirking. Nova smirked as well. It will be his second rescue for saving this girl. Again. Dude, you do- Nova turned around to see all of the guys standing there with wide eyes, watching Abby. Ok, maybe he wasnt the only one shocked. Abby grinned and waved like a maniac Hey losers!! Come in, were having a party Nova had to bite his lip from laughing out loud. She really amused him but he wasnt sure about the rest of the guys. All the boys walked in and stood beside Nova Whats she doing here? Lee asked. Before Nova could reply, Abby did. Hey Dickwad! Im right here She snapped. The boys burst out laughing except Lee who scowled. Man, was she amusing. So what are you doing here? Cole asked grinning. Yup, she amused them too. Abby waved her hand dismissively Long story. Noni here will tell you later on. She said pointing at Nova. Noni? Rick said snickering. You mean Nova? She grinned Yup! I made a nickname for him. Noni The boys burst out laughing again. Nova grimaced. Noni? Seriously?

Really Casanova? Or should I say Noni Martin said laughing. All of the boys laughed. Nova glared at them and there laugh turned into a cough. Yeah no one messed with the Casanova. Casanova? Abby asked then looked at Nova Youre a playboy? She asked grinning. Nova smirked You could s- Leo cut him off Oh yeah, Noni here does every girl. Wow, really? Even deers? She asked with wide eyes as if listening to something really interesting. Nova frowned Deers? The Animal deer? He asked shocked. Is she crazy? Thats disgusting. Plus hes not that sick to fuck innocent animals. Eww. She nodded Oui. Biologically female deers have holes too you know The boys howled in laughter. Rick was rolling on the floor while the others were holding their stomachs. Nova turned red in embarrassment. He couldnt believe she just said that. He never felt this much embarrassment in his whole life. Man, I like her Martin said sobering up. Abby perked up Really? Yup. Your officially part of our group Cole said to her. Part of their group? They didnt even ask him and made it official. You have to earn their respect to get in the group. Did she amuse them that much? Nova scowled. Traitors. Yay!! She then looked at the pictures in Novas hand. Why do you have Mr. Greys naked picture? Revenge Lee and Leo said in union, grinning like maniacs. Nova wanted to bang his head on the wall. Way to go for keeping it a secret. Really? Can I stick one too? She asked Nova. Nova was about to refuse when she gave her puppy-dog eyes. Damn it, its totally illegal to use something like that. He sighed Alright She jumped of the table and wobbled a bit. Nova was at her side instantly. You ok? Oui She said and grabbed a picture from his hand. She looked at the picture Before I thought Mr. Grey is gay but this proofs hes not. I hope that girl made his day. The boys again laughed hard. Even Nova laughed. She glued the picture on the board and took out something from her bag. Nova looked closely and smirked. It was a paint spray. She sprayed and wrote Mr. Grey is a whore then she flicked Nova look-what-I-did grin. She just insulted a teacher, rudely, without any hesitation. Seeing her grin about what shed done shook Novas world on its axis. She was lush and beautiful angel; she was also a prankster. Like him. No wonder the boys liked her.

She sat back down on the desk and started singing Wimoweh, wimoweh, wimoweh, wimoweh. In the jungle, the mighty jungle the lion sleeps tonight All of the boys looked at her as if she had grown two heads. Nova, man we gotta leave before someone sees us Cole said. Nova nodded and looked at Abby who was singing. Lee and Leo stood beside her singing too A weeee they were shaking their butts. Oh lord. Save me. She he understood but these two were just born idiots. He smacked the two on their heads Shut up and get out of the window. We gotta leave. Ill bring Abby. Go. Lee and Leo glared at Nova while rubbing their heads but they left anyway. All the boys were gone except Nova. Come on angel, were leaving. He said pulling her of the desk. Her legs wobbled as she walked Noni, I cant walkeverything is soooo bluryyyy She slurred. Great. Can I get a piggy-back? She asked. Nova rolled his eyes No She again showed her puppy eyes Pleaseeee Noni She said pulling is cheeks. Nova scowled and pulled away from her. He pulled her behind him and pushed her on his back. Whoa, she weighed like a flower. Did this girl eat or not. She wrapped her soft arms around his neck and laid chin on his shoulder. It turned Nova on when her hot breath tickled his neck. Her breasts were pushed against his back and he had to hold back a groan. Damn! This girl is pure temptation. Noni is my pony She sang along the way. Nova grimaced. Man she would eat up his reputation if she kept this up. Nova reached the classroom, where the window is. He slowly jumped out with Abby still on his back. He closed the window and ran towards the car. Go pony! Go! She yelled. Nova cringed and hoped the security guard was still asleep. He carefully pushed Abby off him and pushed her in the back seat and quickly got inside next to her. Go go He said to Cole who quickly drove out of there. Lee was sitting beside them while Cole and Leo were in front. Martin and Rick were in the car behind them. I need to stretch Abby said yawning. She sat on Novas lap, getting him off-guard and placed her legs on Lee. Nova just watched stunned as she wrapped her arms around his neck and cuddled into him. He slowly wrapped his arms around her as if shed disappear. He never felt this hesitant with a girl before. But with Abby he wanted to hold himself back in case of hurting her. When she was around, she made him feel weak, she made him feel himself. He looked up and saw Cole looking at him through the review mirror. He had this knowing look in his eyes that made Nova look away. Maybe Nova wasnt the only one feeling the change. He rested his chin on Abbys head, who now was fast asleep and closed his eyes. Before Nova ran after temptation and now, he wanted to run away from it.

Man, do you know her address? Cole asked Nova. Nova just shook his head. He didnt feel like talking. But then how would we get her home? That thought snapped in his mind. Great, another problem. Search in her bag Nova told Lee. Lee pulled her bag of her and looked through it. Something fell and hit Novas feet. It felt like a book. Just as he was about to tell Lee, Lee spoke first Found it! He exclaimed. He pulled out a set of keys. On it was a tag and her address was written on it. Lee quickly told Cole the address. In fifteen minutes they reached her house or mansion. It was huge. And beautiful. Nova and the boys watched in amazement as they reached the gate. Two security guards were sitting there. One walked up to their car May I help you? He asked Cole. Uh yeah, we have Abigail with us. We found her in sc- Cole got cut off by the security guard Shit. Ms. Abigail. Mr. Moreau was so worried. He said looking at Abby in Novas lap. He waved to the other guard Let them through Cole thanked him and drove inside. It was beautiful; the garden was glittering with lights everywhere. The mansion was just the size as Novas mansion but it was a beauty. Nova pushed open the door when the car stopped. He walked inside with Abby in his arms. The hall was huge with a chandelier glowing on the ceiling. The guy- Abbys brother came rushing down the stairs. Nova remembered him from the bridge. He was wearing a grey suit, he looked like a businessman. Abby! He said when he reached Nova. He still hadnt noticed Nova. He touched her cheek before looking at Nova. Nova saw surprise flash into his eyes You He whispered. Before Nova could reply, the guy spoke up What happened to her? Did she get hurt? How is she with you? Nova understood his concern. If it were Chloe he would have panicked like this as well. Shes the only person who he loves more than anyone. I dont know if you know but she takes drugs Nova said to her brother. He felt guilty about complaining but he knew it was for her own good. She was locked down in school by accident; no one knew she was there. Fortunately I forgot something in school and went there with my friends to get it. We found her stoned alone and I brought her straight home. Nova continued.

Her brother looked down I know whats she been doing lately He then looked at Nova with teary eyes Thank you for saving her again. She has been through a lot. I owe you twice Something about her being through a lot made Nova frowned. He wanted to ask him what he meant by that but kept his mouth shut. Maybe now wasnt the time for this. Nova shook his head Its alright man, you dont owe me anything. Her brother shook his head No no, I do. Whatd your name? He asked Nova. Nova wasnt usually this social but he had no choice but to answer. Im Nova Royce. Royce? Child of James and Sarah Royce? So her brother knew his parents but then who didnt. His parents are one of the top business people, the whole world knows them. Though whatever they are, Nova doesnt care. Those two people arent parents; theyre just strangers to him. I uh, yeah thats me Nova said sarcastically though her brother didnt notice. He smiled at Nova instead Im Adrian Moreau. We just shifted here from San-Francisco That explains why Nova never saw them before. Nova smiled back Yeah well nice to meet you.where do I take Abby? He felt awkward with Adrian; he was Abbys brother after all. Uh yeah, go up the stairs and down the hallway, third door to the left. Nova followed the directions and reached Abbys room. Good thing he had a good memory or else he would have been lost by now, the place was huge. Her room wasnt girly; everything was green which now turned into Novas favorite color. Green reminded him of Abbys eyes. Her room was big and neat. She had teddies and bunnies on her bed, no wonder she talks about bunnies. He placed her down in her queen-sized bed and placed the covers under her chin. It was the most beautiful sight ever, a sight Nova never seen before. Her long dark eyelashes shadowed along her eyes and her pink lips were smiling. She looked so innocent, how could someone break her heart. Nova looked around the room. There was a bookshelf with lots of books. So she likes books huh? He looked around more; there was a laptop and a walk in closet. His eyes stopped at the pictures on the side desk. He walked towards it and looked at them carefully. One was Abby smiling with her parents; she was young, probably about 9. She looked really happy. The second one was Abby and a guy. The guy had his arms wrapped around her and they were both laughing. Nova didnt like that picture at all, though he didnt know the reason for not liking it. Then the last picture was of Abby alone. He picked up the picture and looked carefully. She was wearing a cheerleader suit with pompoms in her hands. Wait-Abby was a cheerleader? Her hair was in a tight pony and she was laughing. Wow. Nova He heard from behind him. Nova turned around to see Adrian standing by the door. He gave Nova a sad smile These were her happiest moments He said pointing at the picture in Novas hand. Nova frowned Wha-

Adrian shook his head Thats a story for another time. Come on, your friends are waiting for you. Nova gave one last glance at the picture then followed Adrian back to the hall where all of the guys were waiting for them. Nova didnt pay attention to any of them, his mind was wondering about Abby. How did a beautiful cheerleader like her, turned into a stoner? Did someone break her heart? Shes beautiful, no guy can keep his eyes of her so who could be cruel enough to hurt her? Nova? Nova snapped out of his thoughts and looked at Adrian. Yeah? Thank you again for helping my sister, youre an angel. Adrian said shaking Novas hand. Nova flicked a glance at the boys who had their lips pressed together. Oh great, now theyre laughing. Theyre really gonna make fun of me. Nova thought then looked at Adrian Im anything but an angel. I think you should keep your sister away from me. If you knew my reputation, you wouldnt be very fond of me His friends looked shocked at him. Yeah anybody would be shocked right now. Most parents love Nova and think hes the good guy for their daughter but they dont know hes the devil in disguise. He shows parents his good boy side and then fucks their daughters afterwards, not his fault though; the girls just want a piece of him. Adrian looked intently at Nova for a moment. He then smiled and shook his head Maybe you are what you are but you saved her anyways, that shows the good side of you. You may be a bad boy or you may be a player but you have good in you and that what matters. And even if you were bad for her, Abby can take care of herself. I trust her but I also trust Abby with you and I want you to keep a look out for her in school, please. He looked at Nova pleadingly. Nova wanted to refuse, he really did but the look in Adrian eyes just stopped him. Maybe if he stayed next to her, hell find out what happened with her. But the more he stayed beside her, the more he feels different. So it had a good side and a bad side to it. Nova couldnt do it. She just made him feel different and he didnt like that. I don- Adrian cut him off Im not asking you to be her bodyguard. Im just asking you to keep her out of trouble. Please He pleaded again. Nova sighed. He really hated this. Why cant you just hire a bodyguard for her? Your rich, Im sure you can afford that. Yeah, try reasoning with him. Now Adrian sighed Because if I do, shell just get angry and would probably run off. I cant loose her; we have already lost so much in life, now Abby is my everything. Shes like a daughter to me and I would do anything to keep her happy. He had so much determination in his voice that made Nova melt. If it were his sister, he would do anything for her too.

Nova licked his lips and pushed his fingers through his hair. A habit of his when hes doing something he doesnt want to do. He wanted to help her but he didnt want to help her, did that make sense? Probably not. Fine! Ill be her shadow Adrian smiled a big smile. Thank you, it really means a lot to me. I promise Ill give you anything instead. Name it and it will be yours. Nova thought for a moment. His parents can give him anything he wants so theres really isnt anything he needs. But a leverage over someone can always be good for future. Maybe he should keep the deal aside for a bit. I dont think I need anything but if I do, Ill be sure to tell you. Adrian grinned. Good good. It was nice meeting you Nova and your friends He said the last part looking at his friends behind him. Nova nodded. Um yeah same here. Well we gotta go, its getting late. Yes of course. Your parents will be worrying about you, its past 10. Yeah right. Thats if they were here to worry about him. They were too busy working. He loved his mum no doubt but she can be sometimes annoying. But his dad, Nova hated him, for everything. He was never there for Nova or Chloe. And his mum only showed her face maybe twice or thrice a month before going back on a business trip. Nova gave one last smile before walking out with his friends. Nova took the keys from Cole. It was Novas car that Cole was driving. Nova never gives his car-baby to anyone but it was an emergency that he had to let Cole drive since his hands were full anyway. Through the whole drive, Nova only thought about Abby. Her sleeping face kept flashing in his eyes. Shes really beautiful, like an angel. Man, I really need some sleep. I sound like Romeo or am I becoming one?
