EPISODE 7
|| Bella ||
I closed the door to my room and moved to my bed. The sigh I breathed out was the loudest I have ever sighed. I’ve just helped Jane with dying Jennifer’s clothes brown those girl will never stop with getting back at each other.
I remembered dinner today and the thought of having a new phone excited me.
Today is my lucky day.
I snuggled up in my bed and thinking about today, I fell asleep.
–
My alarm woke me up the next morning and before I knew it, I was done with my morning routine and was in,side the car with Jane and her father.
“Where the hell is Jennifer!” Her Dad asked impatiently.
“I don’t know, dad we can just leave without her.” Jane said.
“Bella..!” Jane’s dad voice was thick as he called me.
“Yeah?”
“Go call Jennifer now” He sighed and I walked out of the car, but luckily Jennifer was already walking towards us.
I sighed, a sigh of relief and got back into the car.
Jennifer joined us in the car and her impatient father drove us to school.
We all parted ways immediately we were in school and I made my way to class.
Seated in my seat I glanced at Fynn empty seat.
I turned back to my desk and brought out all my books we need for today.
I started to read on my own when noise started to rise at the door.
I looked up to see Fynn walking in and the wh0le cheerleader team behind him and they both walked up to Fynn seat trailing behind Fynn.
Now this is what I get for being seat mates with an extremely handsome and popular guy in school.
“Hey” Fynn said when he got to me and sat down on his seat, I didn’t seem to reply cause both our chairs were surrounded by cheerleaders…
“Hey bella” Fynn called again, this time tapping me.
“HI!” I forced a smiled as I said to him and turned back to my book.
“Fynn… Who’s this?” A girl asked.
“Oh she’s Bella, my seat mate.” Fynn said proudly.
“Oh she’s so…. old fashioned” one of the girls said and they all giggled.
I closed my text book angrily frightening the girls and Fynn cause it was loud.
I grabbed my book and stood up.
“Excuse me!” I said to the cheerleader in front of my desk whose skirt was extremely short.
She rolled her eyes before walking away and I walked out of my seat.
“Where are you going?” Fynn asked and I glanced at the girls before turning to him.
“Giving you all some privacy!” I said before walking away.
They all laughed as I walked away and I shut my eyes tight and walked up to grace.
Grace welcomed and after bad mouthing the cheerleaders to make me alright, we both started to study together.
Soon a Teacher walked in the class, making the girls leave and me going back to my seat.
–
We had three more subjects before it was time for lunch break.
As usual Sophie and I found ourselves in our usual s₱0t and as we ate, we said few things until I broke the news.
“No way!” sophie smiled.
“Yes way!” I shaked my head happily.
“So after all these weeks she finally made her mind to get you a phone.” Sophie rolled her eyes.
“Well I just can’t wait to go home and see what’s in store for me.”
“Yeah me too, good thing I’m going home with you!” sophie said and I grinned.
We both remained quiet and ate quietly until Sophie said.
“Look at poor Fynn cornered by those girls, I know he can’t breathe!”.
I shrugged and also nodded at her, thinking about this morning.
We both ate lunch together until it was break over and we both went back to class.
It was Friday so school didn’t take long before it ended, and Sophie and I found ourselves giggling and heading to the bus stop.
Waiting at the bus stop for the bus, the sun was burning out and Sophie and I could feel our skin going dry and burning and we were getting impatient.
“I can’t take this anymore.” Sophie said placing her hand over her forehead.
“Let’s be patient, the bus will be here any minute” I said looking at the direction where the bus is supposed to come from.
“Hey girls!” we both heard a familiar voice and of course it was Fynn. He was alone this time.
“Hey Fynn” sophie called..
“HI” I said lowly.
“Looks like we’re the only ones waiting for the bus!” he said.
“Tell me about it, and it’s embarrassing too!” sophie sighed.
“And it’s burning hot too!” I added.
“When the hell will the bus get her–
“the bus is here.” Fynn interrupted pointing to the bus coming towards us.
“Finally” sophie and I Said in unison.
The three of us got in the bus and we all took a sit at the back.
Sophie sighed as she exchanged her backpack from her back to her thighs.
“When I get to your house Bella, I’m going to have a big jug of cold orange juice… My Throat is dry and I feel tired, should we just study alone, at our houses.” Sophie sighed.
I shook my head negatively “But I already told my aunt you’re coming over and she gave me the permission to use the house study room, and she said Jane and Jennifer can join us too!”.
“Oh great, those two… I see them at school, but they act like they don’t know me, whatever they can join us!” sophie said…
“May I ask…?” Fynn interrupted.
“Ask what?” I glanced at him.
He looked at Sophie. “What are you joining Bella for at her house?”.
“Oh, you know how our test is next week Monday, So we decided to study together this Friday and maybe also the weekend.” Sophie explained.
“Like a study group. Am I right?” Fynn asked and I nodded.
“Want to join?” sophie invited making me gasp and I shoved her.
“Sure. Why not?” Fynn smiled.
“Seriously?” I rolled my eyes at Sophie.
“What?? Your aunt gave u permission and she’s not home, she’s at work, and come on what’s more better than three or more people studying together!” sophie smiled.
“Whatever.” I sulked, I rested my back on my seat.
I was quiet, the wh0le time letting sophie and Fynn talk and laugh all the way till the bus finally stopped.
We all came down from the bus and start to head to my house.
Okay so let me calculate everything in my head. My aunt isn’t home and letting Fynn join the study group isn’t that bad cause last night she said I could have anyone come over to the house but never leave the house, but what about the twins.
Aunt said I should let them study with us and Jennifer’s already being crazy with Fynn.
Well I hope everything… I don’t even know what to hope anymore.
“And we’re here, this is Bella’s home. It’s enormous isn’t it?” sophie said and I gave her a look before opening the door and walking in, letting them walk in and then closing the door.
The house was empty, as always, I don’t know where Jane and Jennifer usually go to after school, they’re always fifty minutes late after school…
“The study room is over there… Well just come on, I will show you!” I said and led the both of them to the study room.
It was still the same. It had comfortable looking desk and chairs, a small vending machine for snacks, a huge white board maker stayed on the wall and a small cabinet was placed under the board where pens, crayons, makers and pencils were kept, I’ve only entered this room twice and after twice of entering I haven’t really had a chance of coming In again, cause my aunt wouldn’t let me and just let me use my room instead…
.
Sophie dropped her backpack and turned to me.
“Oh and about that orange juice Bella, I’ll really need it now!” she said sitting on one of the chairs.
“Uhm okay I’ll go get you one,” I said.
“And get one for Fynn too!” sophie ordered…
“But it’s okay, I didn’t ask for any!” Fynn smiled.
“Yeah he didn’t!” I said glaring at Sophie.
Reminding her that this isn’t my house…
“Oh well you can go get mine, Fynn and I will warm up!” sophie said and I shook my head at her before walking out of the room.
I made it to the fridge in the kitchen, but we were out of orange juice and only had juice boxes, which were orange, I grabbed two and closed the fridge.
My heart jumped when I saw Jennifer in the kitchen.
“When did you get here?” I was startled.
She always appear like a devil.
“Just now! What are you taking those juice boxes for. Those are Jane’s and you know how she gets when she don’t drink anything orange for a day!” Jennifer stated.
“I know, there’s still a lot in the fridge, Sophie and I are just going to have this.” I explained.
“Oh yeah, I forgot you’re having your geek friend over today. And guess what I’m not joining your stupid study group like mom ordered, but when she comes back, you can tell her I did or else…
Or else what?… I really wanted to say that.
“or else what?” Jane said coming into the kitchen.
“if you ditch studying with Bella today, mom’s going to hear that from me, bet me on that one” Jane threatened.
Oh… How I am starting to love Jane.
“Oh don’t bluff Jane, I know you want to ditch the studying too and hang out with Sean” Jennifer smirked…
Making Jane laugh. “I already told Sean about my plans today and guess what, my backpack is in the study room, I just came here to have a drink. Now ditch the study group and get in trouble!”
Jane glared at her sister before moving to the fridge and grabbing one of her orange box juice. She glanced down at my hand and saw the orange juice but said nothing.
Jennifer had start to walk out of the kitchen when Jane took a sip and turned to me.
“How did you ever made the new guy come here… Uhm yeah Fynn, are you guys friends?” Jane asked.
Oh yeah right, she’s been to the study room so she must have seen him.
“Well we’re not friends. As in friends. He’s my seat mate though, he’s kind of getting along with sophie, so they’re friends. And I’m just… someone he knows” I explained.
“Did you just say Fynn!” Jennifer stormed into the kitchen looking at me. “Like Fynn is in this house…” she added and I nodded.
Here we go.
“And why didn’t you say so, looks like I won’t be missing your study group after all.” Jennifer smiled.

EPISODE 8
🥀. Bella 🌹
.
Jennifer walked out of the kitchen smiling and Jane scoffed.
“Don’t be surprised.” Jane said. “She’s always like this, so she’s joining the study group because of Fynn, don’t be surprised by that because that how she is.” Jane expound.
“I’m not surprised!” I said.
“Oh good, we both know what devil she is in,side” Jane said before walking out of the kitchen with her orange juice while I followed with the juice boxes in my hand too.
Jane and I walked into the study room to see Sophie and Fynn getting along laughing and joking about… whatever they were talking about.
“Here.” I said giving Sophie one of the juice, she looked at the juice box before shrugging and stabbing the straw in it.
“Okay so we’re complete. Let’s start studying then.” Sophie said and everyone took a sit around the circle desk in the middle of the room.
“I’m here.” we suddenly heard from the door and Jennifer walked in a totally different outfit. This one hugs her body.
Wow.
“Oh, Jennifer. I had no idea you would be joining us!” sophie said, befuddle.
“I had no idea too but I live for studying” Jennifer grinned as she walked in the room and took the empty seat beside Fynn and Sophie looks at me with a smirk on her face knowing why she was really here.
“Okay so I know we’re not in the same class right now, but we can actually try doing something that doesn’t require being in the same class or not and maybe history?” Jane suggested.
“I like how you think.” Sophie breathed a smile and Jane shrugged shyly.
“Okay so, History it is,” I said taking out my history text books.
“History? Come on, I’d prefer biology to history” Jennifer rolled her eyes.
“Sorry but majority carries the vote, we’re working on history” Jane said.
“No. Fynn hasn’t decided so let’s hear what he chooses.” Jennifer said angrily.
“But the majority already took the vote, Sophie, Bella and I against you. Even if Fynn supports or not we’re having history” Jane said glaring at her sister.
Jennifer ignored Jane. “Well let’s just hear what he has to say”.
Everyone looked at Fynn and his eyes met mine.
“everyone’s having history so history it is” Fynn shrugged.
“Right? Since everyone’s having history we should too. What was I thinking?” Jennifer said, starting to laugh cutely.
Oh this is fun to watch.
We all started to work on history, we decided on quizzes and also decided to count points, like if any of us gets the answer corrects whenever it’s our turn will be given a wh0le 5points and if we fail the answer we lose the five point and at the end of the quiz, we calculate all the points we’ve gotten and the loser with the lowest point will have to do something for each of the other members.
We started the quiz well and the first round we all got our five points, using the text books to ask ourselves questions, we got to the second round, where Fynn lost a point. Jennifer was being all “Oh it’s okay Fynn, you’re just too smart you forgot the answer”.
Jennifer didn’t want to loose, but the lost at the third round and so did Jane. Sophie and I still took on the high score and I was seriously happy about it, my studying did pay off.
That’s how we took turns asking each other questions, Until we finally came to the end of the quiz.
“Okay now time to calculate the scores. Bella why don’t you calculate it while I get a glass of water my throat is dry.” Sophie said standing up.
“Yeah me too.” Jane said and they both left while I grabbed the papers and started to check the points.
–
Sophie and Jane came back after having their glass of water, Jennifer seemed lost with her phone, but no one cared,
Sophie asked. “So you put it all together. Who took last place?”.
“Jane.” Jennifer said looking at her phone.
“What I took last place?” Jane almost yelled.
“What..? No you didn’t, Jennifer’s just joking, she didn’t even look at the points,” I said calmly so Jane would stay calm.
“Fynn took last place.” I Said shrugging at him.
“He scored 15 points, Jennifer 18 points Jane 16 points, Sophie 22 and me 22” I said as I dropped my pen.
“Wow. Fynn I never thought you’d lost that means you have to do something for everyone one of us here.” Jennifer grinned dropping her phone.
“Yeah I lost, bummer!” Fynn rubbed his neck. “But do something for everyone, I don’t understand.”
“Like a–
“You know.” Jennifer interrupted Sophie. “do something, like any one of us can ask you to do anything for us, well like a favour but only once, you know, run errand or hold their backpack, buy then what they ask for, you know that kind”.
“And no matter what that person tells you, you must do it at all cost” sophie added and Jane smiled.
“Should I go first I know what to ask from Fynn” Jennifer said.
She’s going to ask him to date her, everyone could tell. Or even k-ss her. Jennifer is so obvious.
Jane quickly cut in “I’ll go first Fynn my first request from you, is to not talk or look at Jennifer from now on.” Jane said and her twin gasped loudly.
“Fynn can’t do that.”
“Sorry that’s the rule, he must do it” Jane said and Sophie nodded in agreement… I smiled at their teamwork.
Fynn slowly moved away from Jennifer adjusting his chair and Jennifer growled staring at Jane.
“But I haven’t ask my request yet, so he can’t stop talking to me.” Jennifer snarled.
“Well see Jen, the only way Fynn can talk to you is for you to ask him with your request, that’s it or you have no choice” Jane smiled. I just love it when the twins get at each other.
“Fine” Jennifer huffed. “Fynn, my request is for you to talk to me again.” she rushed her words and Fynn smiled at her.
“Done.” he said.
Jennifer glared at Fynn, she stood up angrily. “And why do you have to be so gorgeous.” she barked before leaving the room.
“And that is what I wanted” Jane smirked making Sophie and I laugh.
“Are you two always like that?” Fynn ask Jane.
“Like what?”
“Always hating at each other.” Fynn added.
“Hello. Jennifer is a witch, I wish she’s not my sister, cause how can your own sister k-ss your boyfriend behind your back, if this was the olden days that would have been called treason. Ugh now you just reminded me of the memory and it hurts” Jane sighed,
“I’m sorry” Fynn pulled a sad face.
“It’s okay actually, you know she was flirting with you right?” Jane said.
“Yeah everyone could see that” I said and Sophie and I laughed…
“Well a really good advice for you is to never ever fall for her.” Jane said and stood up.
She looked at us and smiled. “Oh I didn’t know studying could be fun, now if you excuse me I’m exhausted and I need to lie down.” Jane said walking away.
“Okay so before we continue studying Fynn, I know what to request from you.” Sophie smiled.
“Uhm okay…” Fynn buckled himself up.
“I saw a glimpse of your necklace… I like it.” Sophie smiled.
“What…” Fynn looked down at his chest. “I thought I hid it pretty well.” He mumbled lowly but I heard it.
He looked up at Sophie and bit his bottom lip. “I can’t give this to you.”
“I’m not asking you to give me yours, it’s rare and at the same time magnificent, I’m asking you to get me one, if it’s expensive I’ll give you half of the money” sophie explained.
“But this isn’t what you can buy!” Fynn said.
“What do you mean?” Sophie’s voice was dark.
“This is… I got this from someone, as a present.” he said.
“Wow.” Sophie sighed. “I mean it’s just so unique. Bella you should see this.” Sophie said, wanting to take the necklace out from Fynn but Fynn moved back
“Sorry I can’t let anyone touch this.”
“What is it some kind of sacred necklace or what?” sophie said sarcastically.
Fynn shook his head with a smile. “it’s not sacred it’s just what I’d like to call… Well you know how girls work with charm bracelet, I work with this.”
“Wow. You’re weird.” Sophie rolled her eyes.
“I’m not weird.” Fynn quickly said.
“Don’t worry, I’ll get it for you.” Fynn said and Sophie’s eyes lit up. “Really?”
“How much should I pay then. Cause that looks expensive, is it?” sophie asked.
Fynn shook his head, “it’s okay, I’ll get it for you.”
“Wow… thanks” sophie smiled.
“Bella.” Fynn called and it sounded strange hearing my name from his mouth.
“Yeah.” I looked up.
“You’re the last person. Aren’t you requesting anything from me?” He asked.
“Oh well…” I sighed looked at his wrist to see if I would see anything I can ask him to buy since he decided to buy for Sophie.
But honestly I don’t need anything.
“Well?…
“Well?” sophie pushed. “Or do you want the same necklace?”
“No… I don’t really like necklace. They make my neck itch” I said with a small laugh and turned to Fynn.
“Well I don’t know what to ask of now, maybe if I do later on, I’ll tell you” I said and he nodded.
“Well then, let’s continue studying, and Fynn I thought you were smart, how come you took last place in such a friendly quiz.” Sophie said closing all the history books.
“Because I wasn’t really prepared”. Fynn shrugged.
“You’re lying.” Sophie laughed.
“I’m not.” Fynn smiled.
“You are! fine, you and me. Let’s go for another round, this won’t be a friendly quiz” sophie said…
“Fine let’s go.” Fynn said and the game started between the two of them while I just watched and I felt like a third wheel.
I took excuse of being thirsty and left for the kitchen.
I met Jane in the kitchen and she asked why I was there, I told her about Sophie and Fynn quiz and she laughed and said Sophie is too competitive and it’s hundred percent true.
“But did you suspect the way Jane was towards Fynn, don’t you think she likes him?” Jane asked.
“I don’t think so” I smiled. “Sophie doesn’t really fall for guys that easily.”
“You’re talking like you’ve known her for years, you came to live with us, three weeks ago, so your friendsh¡p isn’t that intense or long enough for you to know who Sophie really is.” Jane scoffed.
I shrugged. “As long as our hearts are warm towards each other, what could be more if not friendsh¡p.”
“Whatever, I’m just saying she has a thing for Fynn, look closely and you’ll tell.” Jane said.
“She should like whoever she wants. I don’t really care.” I shrugged, took a glass of water and left.
I walked into the study room and I saw Sophie and Fynn laughing.
Laughing to what?
Who cares?.
I joined them and asked. “Who won? Is the quiz over?”.
“No body lost.” Fynn said.
“Okay seriously Fynn wasn’t prepared during the first round and he’s really competitive and I almost lost to him.” Sophie said happily.
“Well good thing you didn’t” I said and let out a loud yawn.
“What? Are you bored.!?” sophie asked.
“Not really, I don’t know why I’m suddenly feeling sleeping” i said with another yawn.
“What but we haven’t really stud–
“Then you should go to sleep” Fynn smiled at her and when I looked at him in the eye.
He looked too familiar.
Too familiar my head saw him in another outfit, smiling at me.
“Have we met before?” I asked and he suddenly paused.
“Why do you think so?” he said after his hesitation.
“You know what. Never mind.” I said standing up.
Fynn smiled at me and then turned away.
“Why are you smiling have you guys met before?”.
