Broken

chapter 14

NB: This chapter would be going from Ciara's POV to Salvatore's POV.

Ciara

As usual, Alex and I got to school as early as possible and the first place I headed after we parted ways was my locker.

As I walked down the hallway to my locker, I noticed that people stared at me in an awkward way. I could be over thinking, probably because of what happened yesterday. I turned to the other hall where my locker was located and sighted Shanya in front of her locker. As soon as she saw me, her face wore that worried looked as she walked towards me. She better be worried, I tried calling her yesterday night to tell her about my first kiss. My inappropriate first kiss. I've always fantasized on how I'll have my first kiss with the man who loves me and I love I return. But that dream has been shattered by boss's son. My stomach filped at the thoughts of him. Maybe sharing a kiss with him is not a bad idea after all, only if he respects it. By the way, I wondered why Salvatore was asking if I had spoken with her yesterday. Was she hiding something?

"Hey, are you okay?" She asked nervously giving me the fakest of her smiles. I raised a brow a brow at her.

"I'm mad at you," I said and folded my arms.

"I'm sorry. I swear, I tried to tell you but you were not picking my calls," she blurted.

What?

I remembered that I missed her calls this morning but I thought it was because she missed mine last night.

"What are you talking about?" I asked her.

"I have no idea how it happened. I saw it on i********: last night but it was deleted almost immediately. I didn't expect to see it again today"

"Saw what?" I said half-shouting. I was becoming scared. What was she taking about?

"You've not seen it?" She asked me.

"I won't be asking you if I have," she snapped.

I spotted Dan walking towards us also wearing the same worried look as Shanya. Other than Shanya, he was one of those few people who I talked to at school. We had the same class schedule for Monday, Wednesday and Friday.

But there was something different about his looks today. Ohh! His new hair cut. It looked perfect on him. He wore a blue shirt and black pants. Remember, I said It felt like I knew only one person in this school. Dan was never around, he was always going for football practice.

"Are you okay?" He asked me with a worried frown

"I was okay until you guys started asking questions," I fired at them. I know that I shouldn't be mad at them since they were only trying to make sure I was okay. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath.

"You've not seen it?" He asked me.

"Seen what?" I replied as calm as I could. I was freaking out in my head.

"I think Maddie is up to something, she posted something on i********: yesterday but took it down. I found some posters this morning," he said.

"What did she post?" I asked. I searched my mind incase I've done anything illegal but I don't seem to have done any. Why are they freaking out then?

"Some photos about you and Salvatore. It look like you had s*x with him"

My vision went blur and my head was spinning. I felt my legs going weak and staggered a bit. I held my head and with both hands. Dan and Shanya reached out to but I avoided their touch. I closed my eyes from a minute.

"I'll talk you later," I said leaving them standing in there and ran to my locker. As expected, signed posters fell out of my locker and littered everywhere. Luckily, nothing was written in my locker, just the posters. I bent down and picked one of the posters. They were photos of Salvatore and I in his car on our way to his house, photos of me sitting on his laps yesterday and photos of us leaving his house at night.

I almost laughed at the stupidness of these people. I picked all the posters and dumped them in the trash bin. I had expected something worse than this but thankfully it was just this.

The first bell rang. I went back to my locker to get some books but my eyes caught something in between one of my books. It was a pink note and something was written in it with the most horrible handwriting that my eyes has every come across.

'Don't get too excited dear. Till lunch time :)'

Okay that was creepy. I laughed and tossed it in a nearby bin. Wait till lunch time to share photos of me baking muffins? I picked my books and headed to the first class of the day.

SALVATORE'S POV

"Don't do it Maddie!" I shouted over the line. She was becoming psycho.

"Why shouldn't I? You don't care about her, do you?" She replied and laughed. I sighed, massaged my forehead with my fingers and sat on the bed.

"What do you want, Maddie?" I asked. She's really making things difficult.

"To make sure no one comes close to my man"

"I'm not your f*****g man Maddie. You're being psycho!" I fired at her.

"Psycho? Psycho that I made you moan my name as you came? Psycho that you could not go a day without seeing me until you met this b***h?"

"Listen Maddie, we only f****d, nothing attached. Why don't you get it? We don't share a bond"

"But I want a bond," she said and I rolled my eyes.

"We were only f**k buddies but that's over now. Not like I'm not aware that you've f****d almost all the boys at school"

"That's exactly the point. I have so many people by my feet but I'm picking you and you're being sturbbon. Now you're hanging out with that lowlife b***h?"

"Shut the f**k up Maddie!! We only hang out as friends and I don't want to hear another word about Ciara. Keep her out of this!" I snapped at her. She better keep her horrible tongue to herself if she doesn't want any kind of problem.

"Wait and see Sal. Either you accept the fact that you're my man or I'll do just want I want," she threatened. I knew there was nothing I could do to stop her from doing whatever it is that she wanted. This girl was a total psycho. But the problem right then was that I did not know what she wanted to do.

Leak photos?

I smiled at the idea. Leaking photos of Ciara and I kissing would only bond our relationship. Everyone would learn to be on their lane because they'll realise that she's my girl.

My girl?

Whatever.

At least they'll realise that there's nothing between Maddie and I. But whatever it was that was in that psycho's head was definitely up to no good.

I stood up from my bed and walked to the window. I miss Jason. I went to his house as early as possible this morning and was relived when I saw him asleep. I wondered why he loved that girl so much. More importantly, I wondered how he didn't see it coming. I totally saw it coming ever since she got admitted to college. She had been avoiding him, I tried to warn him but he didn't seem to get it. I felt sorry for him.

"Sounds like you're not intrested Sal, I'll just hang up" she screamed, snapping me out of my thoughts.

"What are you gonna do? Leak photos of us? Not like we've done anything." I said and she laughed.

"Don't underestimate me darl. Who cares if you've done nothing with her. All you have to do is either accept that you're my man and that's all" she said.

I wanted to know what it was that she knew. My mind seemed to find nothing. I wanted to know what Maddie was up to but not in a way to hurt Ciara.

"Tell me what you know first"

"You think I'll do that? You didn't even keep to your promise to always call me," she said and I remembered that I said I'll call her every morning to remind her that we were not a thing.

"Fine! I'm your man! Whatever! Just don't do anything stupid to her," I shouted.

I did not understand why I suddenly cared about her but I felt the need to protect her. I'd been thinking about her than I'd thought about anyone. I sighed heavily and reached for my keys. I need to get to school as fast as I can.

"Of course you are. You always are. I just have to teach that little b***h a lesson. She should learn to stay away from people's men," she said cheekily.

"Don't do anything stupid to her Maddie," I growled. I was already driving myself to school. I didn't take my truck in order not to announce my arrival. I had a feeling that this would be more than I've imagined. Something bad was going to happen. I just hope that Ciara would be strong enough.
