????Narrator’s pov????
“Finally, this shit is off!” Kathy said excitedly, swinging her hands up in the air as she swayed her hips.
Alexis and Pearl started laughing shaking their heads at their friend’s awkward dance step. Although she was a better dancer than the both of them combined.
“You are just overreacting. Honestly been cuffed with Arthur wasn’t that bad in my own experience.” Lexi said with a shrug.
“Speak for yourself, girl. Maybe Arthur gave you a very nice s** but trust me being cuffed with a g-ay is worse.” Pearl gr-unted, scrunching her face up in total disgust.
“Do you still have homophobia, Pearl?” Kathy questioned as she stopped dancing.
“I hate g-ays and nothing will ever make me like them or support them. It’s diabolic, you know.”
“Stop talking like this, Pearl. You will only hurt their feelings and make them look like they are cursed or something.” Kathy said, giving Lexi a side glance.
“Are they not cursed?” Pearl retorted nonchalantly hissing.
“PEARL!” Kathy called warningly, surprised that her best friend would say something as mean as this. She quickly turned to Lexi. “Lexi, don’t listen to whatever Pearl says…just…”
Lexi cut her off smirking. “Whatever she said is none of my business, Kathy.” She turned to look at Pearl. “Maybe we are cursed…Maybe we are committing a very huge and unforgiving sin….maybe we actually tried to change our se-xuality but couldn’t…Maybe we make your straight kinds uncomfortable but that doesn’t mean we are going to change who we are because of people like you. Hate us all you can, we don’t care.”
There was something different about Lexi…the boldness, the straight glares, the bitterness in her voice, the nonchalant behavior,,, something changed.
Kathy noticed but just doesn’t want to put much thought in it until she heard those words from Lexi.
Pearl knitted her brows in confusion. “We?” She repeated. “Why are you adding up yourself?” She asked.
Lexi shrugged, lifting up her backpack for the trip they were planning on going for any moment from now.
“You haven’t noticed? Or wait, you thought I was kidding when I said I imagined Fuc-king Gwen and enjoyed it?”
“That was suppose to be a joke, Lexi. You can’t be g-ay. You love Rowan, remember?”
“Love?” She scoffed. “You call that love?” She raised her perfectly shaped brow at her friends. “That’s no love, girl. But an experiment.”
“What?” Kathy questioned, surprised with Lexi’s reply.
Why were are two best friends just surprising her since they got out of the cuffed shit?
“I thought I was straight. I dated Rowan for close to three or two years and never did I enjoy our s**. Yes I was the problem and that’s because I’m not attracted to boys. I met Gwen and finally, I know what I want. Or should I say, I know where I belong now. I love Gwen and will do anything possible to have her. So you see? Rowan have just been an experiment for me all this time.”
“But…but…how can I be comfortable around you now, Lexi? How can you be g-ay? Fuc-k, you’ve seen me nak-ed for…” Pearl began but Lexi quickly cut her off.
“You don’t have to be worried about anything, girl. I saw you nak-ed but trust me they never for one day turned me on. You are like a boy to me… unattractive.” She smirked. “Although I think someone thinks otherwise.” Just then Arthur and Davis joined them. “Where is Gwen?”
“We haven’t seen her yet and neither have we seen Brenden around.” Davis answered with a shrug.
Lexi furrowed her brows a little, wondering where her brother and Gwen could be.
Everyone have practically taken off the stupid handcuff and were free to roam around without their partner sticking their nose in their business or going around together so what’s with Brenden and Gwendolyn?
Where the hell could they have gone to? Lexi thought to herself looking around in search of them but she found none.
“I…I will be right back.” Lexi said walking off.
“Something feels off.” Kathy said as she watched Lexi walk away towards the restroom direction.
“I know right. How can she be g-ay? Huh?” Pearl huffed.
“Lexi is g-ay??” Both Arthur and Davis asked in sync. “How? When? Why? How is that even possible?” They both asked earning no reply from the girls.
“I’m not talking about that.” Kathy brushed off. “But something feels strange about Lexi. She’s not her usual self. She seems…. different.”
“There’s nothing worse than she admitting to be g-ay, Katherine.” Pearl scoffed in annoyance.
“Can you just take your stupid homophobia out of my sight? You should be worried about your best friend and not her se-xuality, okay?” Kathy snapped in anger.
“How can Lexi be g-ay?” Davis and Arthur asked again…still there was no reply from the girls.
“You are fine with it?” Pearl asked.
“I will support my friend no matter what. Whether she’s g-ay, straight, nun, crazy…
I don’t care…I will always support whatever decision she makes and you should start doing the same as well instead of going all crazy about homose-xuals.” Pearl shook her head calmly in disapproval. “Suit yourself.” With that, Kathy walked away, following the same direction Lexi had taken.
*****
Lexi took out the black leather hoodie and wore it on, staring at herself on the mirror.
She was looking so good in the leather hoodie.
She was just smiling, admiring herself or more like,,, admiring the leather hoodie.
Finally Gwen and Brenden’s cuff will be removed like the rest and they won’t be as close as they were before.
She will have her opportunity…her chances to be with Gwen and win her heart over.
Call her crazy. She doesn’t care.
She made this very decision, the very day her brother decided to look at her in the eyes and lied.
He must have told Gwen everything but didn’t tell her anything!
How could he betray her like this?
How could he want to go away from their father with their mother leaving just her with that old monster?
How could they?
She knew about her feelings for Gwendolyn but wanted to get rid of them because of her brother. She noticed the connection between them. She noticed the look her brother always give to Gwen. She has never seen him give any woman tat kind of a look until Gwen came along.
But she won’t fight the feelings anymore.
She won’t let her brother have everything. She too deserve happiness. She deserve a mother and someone that will make her se-xually happy. No, she doesn’t want Gwen only for s** but really do want to be with her.
Ever since Gwen saved her from those rapist and handed over her leather hoodie which of course she was currently putting on…she knew immediately that Gwen was all she needed to be happy.
She felt the connection, the s-exual arousal.
She was greedy now. Very greedy.
If Gwen could stand up for Brenden, a guy she so much hate with pa-ssion then she should at least do the same for her, right?
Although she don’t know where Gwen belong exactly…was she g-ay or straight? She don’t about that but nothing will stop her from trying.
If she doesn’t have Gwen then Brenden won’t have her as well!
Lexi turned on the faucet and started to wash her hands.
Speaking about the handcuff and the stupid a-ssignment,,, everyone did wrote one or two things and submitted it to Mr Jackson, the teacher who was in charge.
Lexi tried writing something about her and Arthur but ended up writing about Gwen and herself. Stupid, right?
She hope they don’t recognize her writing and call her…Oh shit, she wrote her name at the end of the essay.
Well who cares?
She wasn’t ashamed of her se-xuality.
Yes she was g-ay…So?
Just as Lexi turned off the faucet Kathy walked in.
“What’s going on, Lexi?” Kathy asked immediately.
“What?”
“You are acting really strange.” Kathy took in Lexi’s jacket and knitted her brows totally confused. “That’s for Gwen, right?”
“How…”
“That hoodie is her signature, remember?” Kathy sighed. “What’s really going on? You’ve never spoken that way to Pearl before even after all she did and said about homose-xuals so why now? You were so mean and you show no sign of care or guilt.”
“Guilt?” Lexi repeated. “About what?”
“You hurt Pearl with your words. How can you call her unattractive?”
Lexi roll her eyes. “She got me upset. I wasn’t thinking straight. I just said whatever that came into mind.”
“Let’s say I believe you…why then aren’t you showing off any sign of remorse?”
“Are you here to interrogate me, Kathy?” Lexi asked.
“I’m… I’m…Stop looking so hot with this badas-sbehavior you’ve been displaying.” Kathy huffed.
Lexi smirked. “Why, am I turning you on?”
Kathy mouth dropped open. “Are you flirting with me?”
“Close your mouth, girl.” Lexi winked.
“Fuc-k, who are you and what the hell did you do to my best friend, Lexi.” She said dramatically and they both started laughing. “But seriously, what’s going on with you? You are acting very strange and different.”
“I just gathered up courage to accept my se-xuality, Kathy. What do you expect? And trust me I’m enjoying this new change.”
“Is that why you decided to start wearing leather hoodies like Gwen?”
“She gave me the hoodie, okay?”
“Wait, she did?” Kathy asked.
“Yeah. Here,” She went closer to Kathy. “Doesn’t it smell like her?” She said grinning widely.
Kathy stared at her friend weirdly. “You are crazy.”
“Crazy about Gwen? Yes. Definitely.”
They both walked out of the bathroom but little did they know that someone had overheard their conversation as they hid inside one of the toilet cubicle.
*****
“What will happen to Rowan now?” Kathy asked now as they walked out of the bathroom, heading to the hall as they heard the bell ring.
Lexi let off a de-ep sigh. “I don’t know. Yes I felt connected to Rowan but I never loved him.”
“Does he know about your se-xuality?”
“I just accepted my se-xuality, Kathy. How the hell will he know about it when I’m just accepting it?” She shrugged. “Although I’m so mad at him for lying to me about Lena.”
“Lied?”
“Did you know he dated her?”
“Uh…everyone knew about that. Rowan dated Lena who broke his heart by cheating on him with your sweet brother. Weeks later, you started dating him. Some people said it was a bet in Rowan’s part to take revenge on your brother while some said he truly cares and love you.” Kathy said.
Lexi couldn’t believe her ears.
How come she was the only one who didn’t know about this rumors?
How come she was the stupid one to have not heard?
Wait, what if he was only trying to revenge on Brenden for taking his girlfriend away?
Wait, does that mean he was back to being with Lena? Was that why she came to his house that day?
Fuc-k, how can she be so stupid and foolish?
And how can her best friends know about all this and didn’t tell her any damn thing!
“How come you never told me about all of this?” Lexi questioned glaring at Kathy now.
Kathy shrugged. “I felt no need to tell you about that. You were very happy with Rowan and i didn’t want to ruin it.” She explained.
“But what if it’s all a bet? What if Rowan have only been using me?”
“What if not?”
“That doesn’t guarantee anything.”
“Listen Lexi, I don’t think Rowan will ever do such a thing to you. He loves and cares about you.”
“So are you part of the people who thinks that?”
“Actually it was just Pearl and I that thought about that. Others said he was using you.”
“What the Fuc-k!? How come I never heard about the rumor?”
“Pearl and I warned everyone not to talk about it. But hey, good news here is that everyone knows he loves you now. Yay!”
“Don’t yay me.” Lexi scoffed. “I can’t…” She was cut off by the voices she heard.
Kathy and Lexi peeked throu-ghthe door and saw Lena and Rowan talking about something.
“We shouldn’t eavesdrop on their conversation.” Kathy warned.
“I know. Trust me I’ve been eavesdropping in people’s conversation lately and it definitely got me nowhere but broke me into million pieces. I can’t risk another heartbreak now even though I won’t really feel it.” She laughed. “Let’s g…”
They turned to leave but stopped when they heard Lena’s words. “We can’t speak about what happened between the both of us.”
“You think I want to go about telling everyone about my foolishness?” Rowan questioned.
Their words only sparked up Lexi and Kathy’s curiosity.
They both quickly went to hide behind a door and started eavesdropping, listening to the two conversation.
*****
????Lena’s pov????
“We shouldn’t talk about this ever again.” I said to Rowan.
He roll his eyes. “Do you really think I want to go about talking about my foolishness?”
“Excuse you?” I questioned, knitting my brows in annoyance at him.
“We both know we were very foolish to have done that shit last night. I have a girlfriend and you on the other hand, have a boy you are obsessing on….”
“Point of correction, I am not obsessing on Brenden. I love him and that isn’t a crime, or is it?”
“You won’t know when it becomes obsession, Lena.” He fired back making me even more mad..
“Are you Fuc-king kidding me right now?” I retorted angrily. “And besides, how are you even sure you still have a girlfriend?”
“Isn’t that a very dumb question to ask?” He raised a brow at me, making me look very stupid.
“Didn’t you noticed? Lexi have been acting really strange towards us, you know. When last did she even call your line? Or better still, when last did she even picked your call?” I smirked enjoying the look on his face right now. They were completely priceless.
Hey don’t give me that look that says; ‘you are just a mean b*tch, Lena.’ After all he was the one who started this war. It’s definitely not my fault for being an expert in torturing people with their weakness, okay?
“She’s probably too busy.” He tried making up pointless excuses.
“Really? For how long, Rowan? Do I need to remind you that you both go to the same school and even when you cross path with her at the hall she doesn’t even say a single word to you or better still acknowledge your presence.” I dug out a li-pgloss and started applying it on my li-ps, knowing fully well that the trip was about to commence. I’m sure everyone had gathered around in the hall listening to whatever gibberish Mr Daniel have to say. “Girls does that whenever they are getting tired of a relationship.”
“Not every girl is like you, Lena.” He fired.
Ooh, I think I’ve made gentle boy mad. Well who cares?
“True. But do you know that every girl have the same mindsets?” I pressed my li-ps together after I was done applying the li-pgloss then dropped it down before turning around to stare at Rowan. “‘He’s cuffed with that b*tch.’ ‘why is he even smiling at her?’ ‘How can he lie to me that day about she coming to borrow textbook from him?’ ‘what’s their history?’ ‘What if Lena is his ex girlfriend?’ ‘wait, why didn’t he tell me?’ ‘Is he Fuc-king her behind my back?’ ‘Ahh, is Rowan cheating on me?’ Trust me, thoughts like that are what’s going throu-ghher head, Rowan.” I smirked. “Although it’s not like any of those thoughts are even wrong.”
“What happened last night was a complete mistake! We were both tipsy to have backed away.”
“Hmm, trying to justify your actions. It’s like when you steal a meat from the pot and then see mummy coming out of her room with a scowl on her face and because of your conscience, you started justifying yourself even when she hasn’t said anything. Now the question here is, what if she never caught you in the first place?”
“What are you trying to say?”
“Yes we both made a very stupid mistake last night. Though we enjoyed the s** but it was a mistake. You have a girlfriend and I have someone else that I LOVE…” I said emphasizing on the ‘Love’ part before he takes it as obsession again. “Neither of them will know about our mistakes if we just let it die down.”
He nods his head in understanding. “You are right. Let’s just do that.”
“Mhm…” I leaned closer to him, running my free hand over his broad chest and pressed a ki-ss on it, smirking. “This is what I call cooperation.”
His eyes wide-ned as soon as I said that word. “Fuc-k. We haven’t done our a-ssignment.”
“Relax. We won’t be the only odd one there, trust me.” I said feeling very relaxed. “Besides everyone else have submitted the stupid essay.” I stretched my body feeling so free. “I glad the cuff shit is over. Now I’m free to do whatever I pleases…like taking a bath.” Speaking of a hot amazing shower,,, as soon as we get to wherever place we are going for this trip, I need to take a slow wonderful hot shower.
“I know you have no zeal in your studies but I do.”
“You should have thought of that before lying to your girlfriend that I came to…”
“That was a mistake. I was out of ideas on what to tell her, okay? Yes I was stupid. Can you stop reminding me about that now?”
I roll my eyes, picking up my bag. “You haven’t done your part, you know.”
“How can I? I’m cuffed with you, remember?”
“You were.” I quickly corrected. “But not anymore. So you don’t have to use that Fuc-king excuses anymore, okay? Listen,” I pointed my index finger at him, warningly. “You have Lexi and I want Brenden…, You have to do whatever it takes to make that wish come true or else I won’t be keeping the secret about last night from your little girlfriend and neither will I not tell her about you trying to use her to take revenge on Brenden. You do your part and I do mine. Easy peasy.”
“You are so unbelievable.”
“I will take that as a compliment so thank you.”
“God, what have I gotten myself into?” Rowan sighed, running his fingers over his hair.”
I hiss and started heading for the door. “I should go going the others in the hall. I can’t wait to leave for this wonderful trip. It’s going to be magnificent!” I said laughing. “Are you not coming?” I asked Rowan.
“I’m right behind you.” He mumbled under his breath, groggily following me from behind.
I pushed the door open to find an empty hallway.
I started walking towards the opposite direction. I could hear Rowan’s footsteps following me behind.
*****
????Alexis’s pov????
“Why did you stop me?” Kathy asked in anger. “You should have let me go in there and kick that motherf*cker in the balls. How dare he? How dare the both of them try to use you for their stupidity!?”
“Actually they used me.” I said feeling less bothered.
“Arrrrgh!” Kathy was about to run after them and attack but I stopped her….again for the fifth times.
“You don’t have to do anything, Kathy.”
“Why not?”
“Can’t you see? He have only made it easier for me to break up with him, girl. Now I have nothing to feel guilty or remorse about?” I smirked.
“Oh… that’s very correct.” Kathy nods in agreement. “That serves him right. What a douchebag.”
I laughed. “You don’t have to get so worked up about anything. I got everything under control.” I was still smirking as I folded my arms over my chest.
“Damn, I’m loving this new you.” Kathy commented, smirking.
I’ve just figured out the perfect plan…I just have to speak to Lena before we leave for this trip.
“Me too.” I agreed.
“But still you should have let me deal with that jerk and that bimbo.” She said as I dragged her away towards the opposite direction from the one Lena and Rowan had taken.

????Gwen’s pov????
“Why did you lie to your sister?” I asked as we clambered into the cab.
“I didn’t lie.” He denied.
“You…okay, maybe you didn’t. But why the hell didn’t you tell her about the fight between you and your father?”
“Mr Eric, point of correction.” He corrected.
“Oh,” I exclaimed. “You disowned him. Great work there. I just hope you won’t end you living in the streets.”
“If I do. I will come over to your house. I’m sure you will accept me wholeheartedly.”
“Stop wishing. You are no princess.”
He laughed. “I thought you nicknamed me princess?” He raised a brow at me.
“That’s because you were continually calling me Barbie, okay?”
“Yeah. Whatever.”
“But honestly, why didn’t you tell her?”
He shrugged. “I don’t want her to get so worried about anything. Lexi might act bold, strong but de-ep down her heart is very soft. You are right…I should have thought of Lexi before making that decision but trust me I don’t regret it.” He paused. “I don’t want her to be in a situation where she have to choose between me and her father.” He said calmly.
I could see the care in his eyes.
He truly cares for his little sister and wish her every happiness even if it means ruining his own happiness… he’s ready to do just that.
I wish I had a big brother like Brenden…. yes the idiot is so annoying, frustrating and too full of himself but even at that,,,he has a golden heart. I will give him the credit for that.
“But what if she finds out by herself? What if…”
“And when did you start caring about me?” Brenden cut me off with his stupid teasing. Like usual.
“Why will I care about you?” I scoffed.
He smirked. “Exactly.”
I furrowed my brows at him. “Are you trying to call me a bad person?” I dramatically said.
“I never said anything, barbie.” He shrugged.
“How dare you still call me that?” I said, feigning hurt. We both started laughing earning a look from the cab man.
I know what the old man might be thinking; ‘How can this cuffed kids be heading to school by this time of the day?’
I know we look very stupid right now but Fuc-k you all for thinking that!
We were pretty late for school and being the fact that we were going for a school but hey I can’t leave for a school trip without getting clean clothes, okay?
It’s close to a week now and I haven’t had a proper bath or a change of clothes yet…all thanks to this damn handcuff.
“Where are we dropping off first?”
“My house of course. I need to grab some few things first.”
*****
We got to school and went straight to the principal’s office.
We knocked quietly and heard him ask us for permission to come in before actually walking inside the office.
He looked up at us. “Why are you both just coming to school?”
“We…we were stuck in traffic.” Brenden lied. Well it wasn’t practically a lie but we just skipped some few parts about stopping to grab some food, hanging around before finally coming to school.
Hey don’t give me that look. Brenden literally forced me to do all of those things. Or maybe not.
“We’ve been waiting for you two before we left for the trip.” He stated. Wait, they were waiting for us? Aww that’s so sweet. “Your key to your handcuffs are missing but thank goodness I have spare one.” He got up to his feet and came closer towards us. “But first of all, where is your essay?”
I turned to look at Brenden, “Why did you not remind me about that shit?”
“Language, Ms Darlings.” Principal Daniel warned. “Wait, you two didn’t do the a-ssignment?”
“We forgot but we…”
“Keep quiet. I give you guys before the end of the term.” Principal Daniel said, unlocking the handcuff from our wrist. He then turned to look at me. “I’m sure you don’t about your secret admirer.”
What? I was going to ask him what he was talking about when he said.
“Go and get prepared. We will be leaving soon.”
“You? Have a sere-ct admirer…very funny.” Brenden teased as we walked out of the principal’s office, hands free.
“I’m too unique. You don’t need to be jealous.”
“Me? Jealous? You wish! Do you know how many girls in this school wants to get Fuc-ked by me?” He bloated.
I roll my eyes. “Don’t be stupid, princess. Don’t be.”

????Alexis’s pov????
“What are you talking about?” Lena asked looking around but there was no one aside from just me and her.
I smiled. “Hey. Stop acting clueless. I know about you and Rowan. I know abiut everything and that includes last night.”
Lena’s eyes wide-ned in shock. “What? How…how did you know? Did Rowan tell you anything?”
I laughed. “He don’t have to tell me anything, Lena. But anyway I’m not here to judge you or hate you for what you did with him. In fact I don’t give a Fuc-k about you two.” I spatted coldly.
“So why are you here?”
I folded my arms. “Now that’s the question I’ve been waiting for.” I sighed. “I see you are obsessed with my brother.”
“I am not obsessed with him.” She corrected throu-ghgritted teeth.
“Yeah. Whatever. Anyway, I can help you.”
“What?”
“I can help you get Brenden but,” I paused. “That’s if you are willing to return that favor.”
“What do you mean?”
“You want Brenden but you can’t have him with Gwen around. And me? I want Gwen but I can’t have her with Brenden around. See? We both want the same thing.”
“Wait, I’m confused. How do you mean by you want Gwen?” I raised a brow at her. “You like her.” She gasped.
“Is that a problem?” I shrugged with a scoff.
“Wait…does that mean you are g-ay?”
“That’s none of your damn business, okay?” I fired harshly.
She smirked. “Of course it isn’t. But we can’t speak too harshly to each other from with want each other’s help, you know.”
Damn her for being so right.
“Whatever. Tell me, are you in or not?”
“What happens to Rowan?” She asked instead of answering my simple question.
“Are you worried about Rowan right now or worried about getting Brenden? Tell me.”
She thought for a while. “I will go with the latter.”
“Good choice.” I smiled.
“So what’s the plan?” She asked.
“I have a perfect plan…a very perfect plan.” I grinned, tapping my foot on the tiled floor.
This trip is going to be the best one ever…trust me.
