Kace noticed the change of expression on Allison’s face before she looked back at him, subtly glaring at him as always. Then her gaze shifted to her mother.
"I will be going now Mother," she announced.
She strode out of the house with Kace behind her.
"Enjoy your ti with Kace Wallace!!" Mrs. Quinn yelled out, trying to gain the attention of her neighbors who were going about their ways as she waved them goodbye.
Allison didn’t bother to respond to her. Her mother had been acting weirdly nice towards her since Kace ca to their house the first ti, and she had a good idea why the middle-aged woman was doing so.
Kace moved forward and opened the door for Allison, also ignoring Mrs. Quinn.
"You need to stop coming here all the ti. You visited my college every day too and now, my house?" She questioned him.
"Do you have a problem with it?" He questioned her with a teasing smile on his lips.
"Yes, I have a problem with it," she snapped. "You are drawing so much attention with your outfit, your flashy car. What are you trying to prove, Mr. Kace?"
"Kace," he corrected. "I’m not trying to prove anything. Besides, since we are friends now, it’s only normal that I drop you off at college a few tis." He smiled, his grin stretching onto his cheeks.
Allison huffed. After consistent reasons why they should be friends, which happened after Derek’s disrespect towards Allison, the latter had already agreed for the both of them to be friends, even though she didn’t want them to be one.
Sighing in defeat, Allison got in the car, and the both of them arrived at Aurora Heights University in no ti.
"Are you excited for the Welco Fair?" Kace asked her to break the silence that had enveloped the car since they left Allison’s ho.
Allison stared out of the window, her eyes settling on the students who ca in and left the university.
The university was holding a welco fair, where seniors and professors would welco the freshers and inform them about a few things regarding the university.
"Of course I am," Allison replied, excitent evident in her tone and Kace smiled at her, his eyes on her face. "I’m super glad the professors decided to hold the fair after our exams," she added.
When Kace hadn’t said anything yet, she turned to look at him, finding him already staring at her, his black eyes staring deep into her blue ones. She blinked and gulped down her saliva before tapping him on the shoulder.
"Stop looking at like that. Let’s go."
She stepped down from the car while Kace stared at her back with an unexplainable look before he followed suit.
Kace and Allison parted ways since Allison was a senior herself and needed to assist other seniors in the arrangents of the welco fair.
In the middle of working, Allison’s phone dinged with a notification. She pulled out her phone from her pocket and glared at the ssenger. Her eyes glared at the text.
"Everything alright?" Natalie asked from behind Allison when she saw the latter glaring into her phone as if she wanted to throw punches at the ssenger.
"Everything is alright," Allison replied, dropping the balloons in her hand that would be used for decoration. "I need to go sowhere. I will be back soon," she added.
Allison left the backstage to search for a particular person. When she found the person, she walked towards him.
"Derek wants to et him," she told Kace. Instantly, Kace’s gaze darkened at the ntion of that na.
"Don’t tell you are going to et up with him?" He asked, his eyes narrowing as he waited for her answer.
’I have to, else he would release the sex tape,’ she thought to herself, but she couldn’t tell Kace that, else he would know, which was sothing she didn’t want him finding out about her. It was embarrassing.
"I will go, just to hear what he has to say," she answered.
Kace simply stared at her, many words he wanted to let out but he held himself back. After all, Allison and Derek were still in a relationship.
He’d told her to break up with him, but she kept lying to his face by saying she loved him, which always left his tongue bitter with the urge to disfigure Derek’s face.
"I will text you every five minutes when I go see him. If you don’t receive a text from after 5 minutes...."
"I will look for you, and if he did sothing bad to you, I will turn him into a punching bag," Kace finished, while Allison’s heart skipped a beat.
The way he defended her when Derek slapped her in college still lived rent-free in her mory. She shook her head, not wanting to focus on that part of her mory.
"Thanks," she appreciated. Kace gave her a smile that didn’t reach his eyes at all. His smile faltered as he watched her leave.
"Allison can’t possibly be in love with this guy. He must be holding sothing against her or sothing," he thought out loud.
Allison entered the empty class where Derek asked for her to et him. She sighted him leaning on the wall as he glared into his phone with a frustrated look.
When he heard her footsteps as she entered the class, he raised his head—his red hair following suit as his eyes landed on her.
"You ca?" He chuckled. "I guess whenever I want to talk to you, all I have to do is threaten you with that sex tape."
Allison didn’t react to his words—she stared at him with a blank expression which made it difficult for him to read her mind.
"Aren’t you going to say anything?!!" He barked, making her flinch slightly but she stood her ground. "Did you forget we are still in a relationship?"
"I didn’t, which is why I ca here to end everything. I want us to break up," she answered.
