Chapter 1: The start of the new beginnings

Grace:

It's been an hour since me and Eli, 'My best friend Felicity kings' , have been talking about my date to Prom without reaching any conclusion.

She suggested innumerable boys who could be my date to The Prom but none I felt would play the role being my date perfectly. None, except one I knew.

And God! Why do I know that so well? Why does it have to be him? I wonder How I would be able to put up with him anyways.

I can understand Eli not wanting me to go with him after all we both know that She has a Crush on him, but Apart from that She agrees that He is dumb although His IQ level may say something different, He is still the most Stupid person alive on this earth. Yep! That's what he has to be.

Talking about his relationship, They don't really last longer than a Month and That's totally fine by me. If I pretend to Date him We can just end it even earlier. And I can't not fake dating him bcz It's not like I have any other choice.

I know you might think that this is just some stupidity and I honestly shouldn't do all this, But not showing up isn't a Option. My school is not the regular one and I certainly don't fit here but the Reputation that I have is something that I achieved on my own and not showing up after talking si big is just like bringing myself down.

They are all going to laugh at me but since when Did I care about Other people's opinions! Damn! I always do, I may show it like I don't give a fuck about what everyone else says but that's so not the truth, I care about what they think about me, How they see me and just everything.

I just can't, In Fact No! I won't go to the Prom without a Proper date looking like a Loser in front of my Asshole Ex.

Besides all the boys that Eli suggested are total Scumbags who aren't even my Option.

They won't go with me without wanting something in return and I don't really have much to give to them and I certainly won't be down for whatever they may want.

Jeez I need a date, A fake one, Can't sleep with anyone. Now Can I?

Adrian might be a Total Jerk and annoy me to my death but He still knows How to treat a girl, and Yeah He does want something in return but that's fair for both of us, and I know, He would never do anything that in any case will be inappropriate.

Adrian and me Dating might be a Shocker, Fake dating I mean, but then again it will be quite believable to some, and Rumors starts with one. Don't they? And seeing How much Adrian and I are always together I doubt they will find any of it suspicious.

We may annoy each other but We both have helped each other out In some situation or the other and there was even a rumor once and It's still quite in the air.

'The Adrian Redwood is dating the Scholarship but Brilliant Grace Walter. I must say they are a match made in Heaven." I remember how some opposed it so badly, me included as We bashed the comment totally.

Some even said that 'They both would kill each other if they got the chance, They are always at each others necks"

And the reply was "That's a Lover's Quarrel. Don't you guys get it? Can't you see the Sparks igniting between them, They are so in love but They put up that front just so no one would find it suspicious."

I have to say, I was quite impressed by the School Forum's Host, like How did He/she manage to come up with such an equation? Too many drama series. I guess,

Although I tried so hard I couldn't find the person but I knew this has to be someone who has his eyes everywhere but just who is that person.

Anyways All I know is that We won't ever work out ever and since we both are completely the same person, We would easily end this relationship of convenience with no strings attached when the right time comes.

FLASHBACK:

We all were sitting in the Cafeteria at our usual Table and I for once couldn't focus on my friends, food and my surroundings as I was busy thinking about the events that recently took place in my life, one such being my boyfriend being a cheater.

Had it not been for Adrian, I would have never known that The Bastard was cheating on me. Oh God, again Adrian! Why is he just everywhere?

"Oh Come-on, Grace Won't you let me explain myself even once?" I heard The voice I now loathed, I even hated looking at that face but turned around to face the Asshole anyways. I already knew that many of the eyes were already on us, Well! he was too loud to be ignored.

There stood my boyfriend of two years, actually my Ex now. Nate Neilson, was the perfect boy, At Least that's what I thought. We met in our first year, Coincidentally or you can say unfortunately We both had the same lectures and We ended up bonding since he was so sweet and became friends. As we got to know each other, He always made me feel so special, and maybe that's the reason When he proposed me in the school cafeteria in front of everyone, I didn't hesitate to say 'Yes' even once.

I was young, I was immature, not really though, I am the most logical person you would ever meet but I made a mistake, a mistake in recognizing him because I thought he was a perfect Life partner. I thought I would have my life settled and The biggest of all I was in love, I mistook the 'Us' he made me believe in and saw our bright future which suddenly seems to me like it lost all its shimmer. It made my blood boil seeing the guy standing there.

"I am telling you it was a mistake." He said ruffling his hair, The audacity of this Man! Oh! The irony is, He is calling it a mistake, he has been doing it since the past four months. How is that a mistake? Can someone tell me about it?

How is he even able to face me right now? His eyes, more than sorry or worried about the current situation, have a look of frustration in them. Frustrated about what? He is the one who chose to ruin our relationship and rather than mend it, as he had so nonchalantly told me in the corridor, I prefer ending it.

"Was it a mistake?" I spoke getting up from my chair giving him a pointed look as he raised his eyebrows in response "That wasn't a mistake, what you did was your choice." I paused but didn't give him the time to interrupt as I continued "You know what was a mistake? No? Let me tell you."

I moved towards him as I poked my finger in his chest. "We were a mistake, a mistake that I should have never made but I still did, anyways." He looked shocked if not guilty. I smiled at him "But I will fix it, I don't accept your apology, because I am breaking up with you." I spoke moving back from him as I wiped my fingers that touched his disgusting self in the table cloth just to give him an attitude.

"Are you even listening to yourself? Babe I am sorry, just forgive me already. You would eventually come back to me so why so much drama?" He spoke coming closer to me trying to hold my hand. I gave him my most irritated look scoffing at his words.

This man! Backing away from his touch I gushed out "What's wrong with you? You are the one who cheated, so get one thing very clear in your head, We are not getting back because I am not forgiving you for what you did Nate."

"Seriously! Are you turning me down? Who do you think you are?" He spoke with such arrogance. I was completely Surprised at his pathetic outburst. It didn't take his personality a minute to flip the switch. Is he the same Nate I liked? He can't be. Damn! I agree with Eli, my choice was horrible. "Just let's forget about it and move on, I will not do it again." I couldn't find even an ounce of sincerity in his eyes and he was asking for a second chance.

"God! You really are an Asshole. I should have known better." I muttered "Come-on Grace, You know You love me, and besides We have been together for two years, I made a mistake. Can't you just let go of it for once?" Trust me My hands are itching right now to punch this Asshole face.

"We are not getting back Nate, and go on Vanessa must be waiting for you in another classroom." His face changed completely, he looked embarrassed and enraged.

"And what about you? You dated me and we're ready to go all down with me." "Excuse me?" I couldn't even process his words. Was he comparing her with me or was he saying that I... Huh! Was he always this cheap or am I seeing his upgraded worthless version today?

"Haven't you once thought that me cheating on you might be your fault as well, you must have lacked Something. You weren't able to keep me around." I looked around myself and everyone's eyes fixed on us. I breathed, clenched my fists on my sides to control my anger. He doesn't get to do this, I am not letting him.

"Is that what you are so proud of? Well! Then let me tell you, In case you didn't already notice, you were just a phase that I am already over with. Your cheating isn't my fault and I will not let myself be blamed for your freaking mistakes." I stated looking at him emotionlessly stressing on the word mistakes.

"Oh really! Do you think someone else will date you besides me? If I cheated on you then it is your fault and I don't need you to take me back, I always have girls lining up to me, I don't need a loser like you." He spoke, loosening his tie. I gave him an unbothered look as I answered "Well! Good thing I am not taking you back." Is he sick? Blaming me for his mistakes! What's wrong with this guy?

"And you aren't getting anyone other than me Grace so it's your loss, I guess." He smirked at me "You are wrong about that." I spoke on edge, his smirk disappeared as he raised his eyebrows curiously "Care to elaborate please?"

"I already made a boyfriend." Before I realized the words already slipped out of my lips. I bit my tongue as I looked around me. They were staring at me wide-eyed with shock visible on their faces. There were choruses of "What?" and the persons who were most shocked by my revelation were either Nate, that Bastard, or my Bestfriend Felicity Kings.

"Oh! Great, Miss Walter just cracked the biggest Joke of the century, Woah! A boyfriend? that too of yours! sounds incredible to me." He sounded so smug trying to mock me in everyone's presence which only infuriated me further as I added before I could control myself "Yes. A boyfriend, better, actually much better, good looking, Caring, and Smarter than you, and as far as I know him, He will be loyal to me." I paused taking in his expression.

"Loyal! Oh look! Who am I discussing loyalty with? Who perhaps doesn't even know the 'L' of it. He is far better from you, you Asshole." And with that I suddenly felt so relieved as if something that has been hurting me from within, has just become my strength, and that sudden upsurge of this strength assisted me in showing that person his place, a person who was nothing more than a pathetic cheater.

We all stood there contemplating each other's next step. "Is it?" He spoke with disbelief and then continued "Well! Then we all would definitely like to meet him, What say guys?"

"Yes!" Everyone cheered, and this was our Evandale high, always ready to poke their nose at someone else's matter.

"Miss Grace Walter, We would be glad to have him among us at the School prom." What's wrong with this guy? Does he really think of me so lowly? He thinks I can't have a boyfriend other than him. Woww! Completely annoyed and dumbfounded by his behavior, I said "Right, You want to meet him then You will, I will bring my boyfriend to the prom." I let out and with my words still hanging in the air the reality of what just happened and he told me really hard.

I realized the blunder I was making but I was not backing out now, I can't. I need to show this Bastard his place, and he completely deserves it. I looked at him one last time and slowly started to work out of the cafeteria when he stopped me.

"Grace! If you don't bring your boyfriend, You should be ready for the blood moon punishment." Wait! Just how much confidence did this guy have in me and my ability to not make a boyfriend.

'Blood moon punishment' which meant that the Loser gets red wine poured over his/her head, I was so not going to have that "I will bring my Boyfriend, and then you, be ready to have the 'Blood Moon Punishment" I blurted out and with that I walked out of there from everyone's prying eyes with Eli hot on my heels.

I took out my phone hearing my phone's notification sound go off, and here it was. A tweet of 'How the University's top student and her boyfriend, basically the campus couple, just broke up and she seems to have found a new boyfriend whom we all will be meeting at the School Prom." in the school's anonymous forum page. Gawd! Just how fast is this person. The news travels faster than air here in Trinity academy.
