CRIMSONS BOND

Daisy's POV

The excitement I was feeling was out of the world as I stepped into the club with my best friend; Maria. The excitement wasn't just for the fact that I was now a high school graduate but the fact that I would be going on a vacation with my ever-busy father, to Hawaii.

As a high school graduate at 16, I felt like an adult already and that feeling was awesome.

The club was filled with high school graduates from different schools in New York. I knew I was going to be the center of attraction among my classmates.

I walked elegantly with pride and confidence. My dress was ordered from the best-known fashion designer in New York. It was a white short flowery gown with touches of brown flowers that looked like lilies. My heels, purse, and jewelry were diamond in color and they were flashing in the evening light.

"Hey Daisy", Becky waved at me, squealing in excitement.

I stopped walking and responded. "Hi Becky, whatsup?" I asked with a smile.

I'd say Becky was my second best friend but sometimes, I feel she didn't deserve that title. She behaved like a chameleon. Always off and on.

"I'm cool. You look great", she smiled at me sweetly.

I found the smile genuine and I couldn't help but return the smile.

"You look awesome too." I complimented her. She was in a blue dress and it was very short, showing all her thighs.

"Where is Maria?" Becky inquired.

"There", I pointed in the direction of the front door. Maria was sitting on her boyfriend's lap, they were making out.

"Crazy girl", I muttered and Becky giggled.

"Hello everyone", the head boy of my school; Stanley, stood on the podium as he made use of the megaphone.

"Hi", the students roared.

Some of his admirers were throwing invisible kisses at him.

I shook my head. I was the school head girl but never got along well with the head boy. He was too arrogant and proud and I detest people like that. My late mother taught me to be humble, generous, and kind to people.

The head boy, Stanley, asked me out on several occasions but I always turned him down. He felt hurt by the rejection and we had been sworn enemies since then.

"Is st. Raymond Elementary school here?" He asked the crowd looking at the long list of schools in his hand.

The students of st. Raymond Elementary school yelled in response, signifying their presence.

The students of Biotechnology High school jumped up in excitement to signify their presence, same with Bronx High School of science.

"We are present", the students of Bergen County Academics and Stuyvesant High school responded when Stanley called the names of the school together.

Stanley called out all the remaining five schools present as they all screamed in response, including my school, Townsend Harris High school.

"Great, let's party then", he concluded and jumped down from the podium, signaling to the DJ.

"Hello sunshine", a tall guy stood in front of me as I stared at those people who were dancing. I could see Maria and Eric at the other end as they danced crazily and I laughed.

Even though I was excited about the party, I was beginning to feel uneasy.

I haven't responded to him before he said, "You light my world the moment you step in."

I scrunch my face in confusion. "What?"

"That's a pickup line", Becky commented.

I burst out laughing at Becky's comment. "A pick-up line? It sucks." I laughed some more.

The guy was handsome no doubt but, what sort of pickup line is that? I asked inwardly. The first thing you say to a girl is a pick-up line? That's absurd!

The guy only smiled as he stood with his broad shoulders confidently, twirling his fingers around the glass of wine in his hand.

"I'll excuse you two", Becky whispered in my ears and disappeared before I knew it.

"What planet are you from?" I turned fully to face the guy.

"Planet Earth." He replied.

"Shall we dance?" He requested and I nodded without hesitation.

"Let's dance it out", I shouted so my voice could be heard above the loud music.

Damien's POV

She truly lights up my world the moment she walks in. She looked like a princess and she was indeed a princess. She got not only my attention but also the other guys from my school.

There were whispers of her name from those whom I presumed to be her classmates. I had my ego to protect but I couldn't just sit and watch another guy make the first move.

I ignored the fact that there were a lot of girls at my beck and call. The girls I like and even those that I don't. They fall for my charms easily and I do not need to exert much trouble to get any girl I want.

Daisy, as they called her, looked innocent and beautiful. I was sure she wasn't like the rest of the girls who threw themselves at any random guy as long as he was good-looking or wealthy enough.

I went to talk to her and asked for a dance. Initially, I thought she was going to reject me but when she nodded, I felt relieved and happy that things were going perfectly fine, just like the way I wanted and loved it.

I hated it when girls tried to play hard to get. It turned me off. No matter how much I like a girl, once I am rejected, I'll begin to dislike her.

'Who the hell rejects a handsome guy like me? No one' I thought to myself with a smirk as we danced.

Her lips were so soft and looked attractive. I couldn't resist the urge to kiss her while we were on the dance floor. I felt myself getting hard after pecking her on the forehead, her beautiful long nose, and a quick one on her lips. She was surprised by my reaction but quickly covered it up with a smile.

I felt relieved.

I found everything about her enchanting, including her green peanut eyes and her curly brown hair. I was sure she'd look more attractive beneath... I mean when naked.
