Living With The Bad Boy

Sunlight filtered through the wall of morning fog.

It poured through my bedroom, lifting darkness and causing sleep to fade away from my heavy eyes as i sluggishly pulled my eyes open sighing.

I got up from the bed sluggishly and headed over to my bathroom to brush my teeth.

I took my bath and then got ready for school, putting on a white top and black leather trouser with white sneakers and my backpack.

I ran downstairs to see Alex in the kitchen where he was busy making toasts.

I went into thee kitchen and took a bottle of water taking it down in one gulp.

“Didn’t your mama teach you to greet people when you wake up?”His deep voice rang.

“And didn’t your mama teach you to greet also?”I answered his question with my own question.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

He scowled at me and continued chopping the veggies in front of him ignoring me.

I grabbed an apple from the fruit basket and left the kitchen heading out of the house.

I took my bike and veered out of my driveway driving to school.

I parked my bike at the parking lot and clipped my helmet to it before locking it and then marching towards the school which was already occupied with students marching all over doing their individual businesses.

I placed my backpack in my locker and took out my notebook and pen as i headed down the hall towards my classroom.

On getting to my class, i saw my friends already seated at our usual sit and the look on their faces when they saw me wasn’t a pleasant one.

I shrieked as i walked over to our seat smiling broadly at them.

“Good morning” I cheerfully greeted.

“And what is good about the morning?”Zoey was the first one to speak.

“Hey I’m sorry for yesterday, I was just not in the right state of mind you know, you both made me kiss that jerk”I said.

“You locked us outside your room and we had to go back home so late at night!”Jane protested.

“Look I’m sorry guys, I promise to make it up to you both”I said.

“On one condition”Zoey said.

“And that is?”

“Firstly you’ll tell us what Alex said when you guys later saw each other and then you’ll buy us tropical flavor ice cream with chicken wraps”She said and Jane agreed with a nod.

“Fine then”I said and told them everything.

“You sneezed on him!”Zoey exclaimed.

“Don’t blame me, i had no option”I said in my defense.

“Girl I’m so disappointed in you, how could you”Jane yelled.

“wait…. wait…. wait, hear me out first, he was trying to kiss me!”I yelled.

“Still, did you really have to sneeze on him? that’s so unladylike”Zoey said.

“Chill girls, why do i have this feeling that you both are now siding with Alex?”I asked, looking at them wearily.

“We aren’t siding with him, you know we’d always support you all the way but you sneezing on him is so stupid and dumb, why would you sneeze on a guy?”Zoey yelled.

“Because i don’t like, he deserves every bit of it, if i have another opportunity i will do more than sneezing on him”I said, earning an eye roll from both of them.

I returned home from school that evening after a two hour detention as usual. I pulled into my driveway, locking my bike as i marched towards the house to meet the door open.

I angrily stormed into the house to meet the house filled up with so many people and girls, they were all making out and doing all sorts of nonsense.

The stench of alcohol was perceived all through the house and then i scrambled upstairs to Alex’s room in search of him.

I pushed the door open angrily without knocking and saw him on the bed with a blonde straddling his waist.

I traipsed over to wear he was and pulled the blonde away from him, dragging her out of the room as i slammed the door shut.

“Hey!”I heard her yell bit i payed no attention to her as i stormed back to face Alex who was now on his feet.

“What was that about?”He yelled and i raised my hand in attempt to slap him, only to be caught midway by his strong hands.

“How dare you Alex, how dare you throw a party in my house!”I yelled angrily.

“And since when did i need your permission before i do anything? remember i told you that I’ll be getting back at you for last night? consider this as payback”He bluffed.

“Are you mad Alex? do you think you can just do whatever you wish to in my house, let me remind you in case you’ve forgotten. This is my house and you have no right whatsoever to host a party in my house”I yelled.

“And what would you do about it?”He dared me, a cunning smirk plastered on his stupid face.

“I’ll go down right now and I’m gonna put an end to this nonsense”I said and left the room, just as i was few meters down the hall, heading towards the stairs, i was yankee back and Alex carried me up on his shoulder taking me back into my room.

“Hey let go of me, put me down Alex!”I screamed hitting his back but he ignored my screams and kept walking to my room.

On getting to my room he threw me down on my bed and before i could gather the strength to stand up he was already out of the room, locking it from outside.

I got up from the bed and scurried over to the door, banging and yelling.

“Let me out of here Alex!”I yelled.

“No, you’ll stay in there till tomorrow morning”He said and i heard his footsteps fading away.

Damn it!

I kicked my leg at the cupboard beside my door, hurting my foot in the process.

“But it looked so cool and easy in movies, why did it hurt so much in real life?”I muttered as i limped on my feet, staggering to my bed.

Fuck it hurt so much.

I lied down on my bed with thoughts of murdering Alex playing in my head.

1000 ways to kill Alex was my next mission as soon as i get out of this room I’ll murder him and bury him alive.

Okay that didn’t make any sense but it made perfect sense to my subconscious mind.

After about thirty minutes of roaming about the room, i finally drifted off to sleep.

I woke up the next month with my eyes heavy. I lazily got up from the bed and went to the bathroom to brush my teeth.

I pulled the door knob and then realized it was still locked.

That jerk!

The nerves of that jerk.

I pushed the door severally in attempt to open it all to no avail. It then occured to me that i had a spare key hidden away in my drawer.

“Why didn’t i think of this earlier last night”I muttered and scrambled to my drawer in search of the spare key.

“Found it!” i stared at it like I’d won a lottery ticket.

I pulled the door open immediately and scurried downstairs immediately to see the place all messed up with wasted teenagers all over, all passed out.

I stomped over around the place and took the speaker by the television stand as i began playing music, switching it to the highest volume.

They started waking up and stood up staggering to face me. I turned off the music and glared at them.

After chasing them out of the house, i ran up to Alex’s room to see him sleeping like a log probably naked under the duvet  with the same blonde from last night.

I scampered to the bedside table where a jug of water was placed on then splashed it on them both.

“Hey!”The blonde yelled and stood up only putting on a pink laced bra and laced pant.

Alex sluggishly got up from the bed staggering towards us.

“Hey what’s the meaning of this crazy?”The blonde yelled.

“Get out of my sight now before I’ll-”

“You’ll what? What will you do? If you as much as try to lay your filthy finger on me again, I’ll chop off your hands” She threatened.

“Oh really? Are you threatening me?”I asked, smirking.

“Yes, try me if you dare”She dared and i pulled her by her hair, dragging her out the door down to the living room.

Just as i was dragging her she pushed me away from her, putting me off balance but luckily i got a hold of my self.

“Are you mad? How dare you touch that hand of yours on me!”She yelled as she attempted to slap me but i caught her hand midway and twisted it backwards to her back.

“Hey let go of me!”She screamed and i twisted her hands with more force.

“I thought you were strong, you were threatening me just now right? I bet you didn’t know who i am”I said.

“Hey let go of me psycho!”She yelled.

“Not until i teach you a big lesson, you don’t know who’s house you’re in, you came into my house and started threatening me, you’re very stupid”I yelled and raised my hand to hit her but i was pulled back from her and i turned to face Alex.

“What’s the meaning of this Olivia?”He asked.

“I have nothing to say to you yet, let me deal with this slut here”I said and turned to face the blonde who was still nursing her broken arm.

“Who’s this psycho Alex?”She asked.

“She’s no one, don’t pay any attention to her, let’s go”He said, pulling her along with him but i yanked him back and slapped him across his face.

“Do you think this is a joke? firstly you threw a party in my house without my permission and now your stupid mad one night stand is here harassing me?”I yelled.

“One night stand? Alex she called me a one night stand!”She screamed.

“Prisca just forget her, go home I’ll see you later”He waved her off.

“It’s Priscilla not Prisca you dimwit!”She yelled, hitting his chest.

“Hey I’m sorry, Priscilla or Prisca what’s the difference?”He asked and she continued to hit him.

“You know what Alex? It’s over between us, i can’t believe we’ve been dating for two weeks and you still don’t know my name!”She yelled and went upstairs.

“Really Alex? Where do you even get these kind of psychos?”I asked, stifling a laugh.

“Non of your fucking business”He said and then the blonde came back down fully dressed in a short black mini gown with her shoes in hand and hair all over the place, looking like a raccoon played on her hair.

“It’s over between us”She scoffed.

“I heard you the first time”He smirked.

“I hate you!”She yelled as she ra out of the house.

I turned to face Alex, glaring at him angrily.

“Alex enough of this nonsense, I won’t tolerate this obnoxious behavior of yours anymore, how dare you throw a party in my house, just look at the idiot you brought to my house”I yelled.

“Are you done? now get lost”He said walking away but i ran after him and pulled him back to face me.

“Are you mad? how dare you speak to me in that manner!”I yelled.

“I only spoke to you in the manner you’d understand, now get lost, don’t make me loose my patience”He warned and walked away.

I stamped my feet angrily on the floor, trashing whatever i came across.

I hate Alex.

I’ve said it many times already but this time, there was this anger i was feeling towards him. I just felt like burying him alive.
