{ COLD AND WARM }
JOCELYN’S RESIDENCE
Jocelyn walked into her bedroom with a bathing robe on,she was just coming out of the bathroom and she was looking wet,a towel was tied on her head. She sat down in front of the dressing mirror and started applying her facial night cream
Just then,Tyler came in
“You didn’t call me when you came in” he said and sat down on the bed
“Thought you were sleeping” Jocelyn faced him
“Eaten?” She asked
“Not hungry,appetite lost,totally not hungry” Tyler muttered and Jocelyn frowned
“Did something happened in school?” She asked
“No” Tyler muttered and sat down on the bed
“Do you want to sleep beside me? I’m going to prepare a delicious meal for you tomorrow” Jocelyn smiled and Tyler faced her happily
“Really??”
“Which one are you happy about?……”
“Sleeping beside you of course!!” Tyler shouted and Jocelyn chuckled as he jumped back on the bed
She walked to her closet and get changed into her nightie before joining Tyler on the bed,he immediately moved into her
“You don’t have to hug me” Jocelyn said
“You smell really nice” Tyler mumbled with his eyes closed
Jocelyn smiled and rough his hair before closing her eyes also

He smashed the bottle against the wall and run his fingers into his hair but her image kept appearing in his head.
After some minutes he became calm
He grabbed another bottle of alcohol,this time he used a glass
‘Forget about her Oliver,she doesn’t want you’ he said to himself and was wishing inwardly that he would really be able to forget about her,even if he doesn’t want to admit it,he knew he wouldn’t be able to do that easily. Not when he sees her every f-__-king day.
By the time he finished another bottle,he was totally drunk and his head fell on the table.

“Hey” Rowan called Ariana who was on her phone and she looked up to see them in school.
They both got down from the car and almost immediately,Ariana saw Tyler from afar. She didn’t think twice before running after him while Rowan stared at her.
“Tyler” Ariana called when she caught up with him
“Hey” Tyler let out a charming smile
Ariana grabbed his hand and pulled him into an empty class,she locked the door and then faced him
“What happened?” Tyler asked,looking confused and she seems to get herself back after that question
“It’s nothing serious,I was just…wondering why you were with Monroe after school yesterday” She muttered
“You’re curious?” Tyler asked and she nodded before looking up
“Well,I’m going to be her tutor….”
“What?!” Ariana’s eyes widened
“You sound so surprised” Tyler said
“Of course I am! Why you?? The president should get her a great teacher to tutor her,not a student like her,not you” Ariana said
“Well,I don’t see anything bad in it” Tyler muttered
“Don’t you understand? You’re going to spend more time with her alone,isn’t that annoying?” Ariana scoffed
“Not really” Tyler said and Ariana frowned
“You know what she’s like,what If she….” Tyler pulled her to the wall and a gasp escape her lips
He caged her to the wall,his two hands by her sides and then he smiled cutely
“Seriously Ana,are you jealous?” He asked and Ariana blinked twice
“No I’m not” She muttered and rolled her eyes
“I don’t want to stay alone with her either….so do you wanna tag along? It’s not bad having two tutors right?” Tyler asked and Ariana let out a pretty smile
“Yeah right,I will love that” She said and Tyler chuckled
“So you were jealous” He muttered
“You said you want us to be friends,so it’s annoying that you’re always with her” Ariana said
“She always come to me,not the other way round. And besides,you’re such an hard nut to crack,your mood swings are so crazy that I’m scared” Tyler said and they both laughed
“But it’s cute,you remind me of my sister somehow” Tyler said and sat down
“Really? You have a sister? Kid sister?” Ariana moved to his front
“No,elder sister. You’re just like her” Tyler said
“I am? How?” Ariana asked
“Pretty,Crazy,Brilliant,Smart and…..I rather keep the last one to myself” Tyler muttered and tried standing up but Ariana pulled him back to the desk
“What” Tyler laughed
“Tell me the last one” Ariana said with a deep voice and Tyler lean closer to her face
“Are you thr_@tening me now?” He asked
“You said it yourself that I’m crazy,so don’t see my crazy side and tell me the last one” She said
“Fine” Tyler muttered and Ariana moved back
“She’s got a nice….gosh I can’t” Tyler said and immediately ran toward the door but Ariana grabbed his hoodie and pulled him back
“You don’t have to be so stubborn you know?” Tyler said
“Tell me…..”
“Why the f-__-k are you so curious!” Tyler Snapped and Ariana frowned
“Then keep it” She Said and almost opened the door
“You have a pretty @zz” Tyler said and Ariana turned back immediately
She bashed her lashes and some Crazy feelings rushed inside her
“Seriously?” She asked
“Yeah,so cute” Tyler smiled and Adriana grabbed his ear
“Pervert!” She yelled
“Ouch,you forced me to say it Ana” Tyler said and she released his ear
“You’re the first guy saying this to me” she said and Tyler smiled
Ariana smiled shyly
Tyler checked the time
“We should go,we might get late for our first class” Tyler said
“I don’t feel like attending the class” Ariana said
“Seriously? Should we just skip together?” Tyler asked
“Yesss!!!!!!” Ariana said excitedly
“Bad student” Tyler pushed her forehead and Ariana chuckled.
“What do we have right now?” Ariana asked
“Biology” Tyler replied
“Then I don’t need to attend the class” Ariana said
They both sat down together
“Wanna exchange contacts?” Ariana asked and Tyler nodded
They both Exchanged phone numbers
“What should we talk about?” Ariana asked
“Tell me about yourself….what do you like? I wish I can see your smiles more than your grumpy face” Tyler said
“Gosh,I’ve been smiling for minutes now” Ariana said
“I know,but I want to see more” Tyler replied

Oliver came in and Jocelyn raised her head from the system in front of her
“Morning Sir” She greeted but he ignored her Totally and walked into his office
‘What’s with him?’ Jocelyn thought as her eyes followed him into his office,he wasn’t looking really good either
‘Is he sick?’ Jocelyn asked herself but when she saw his face she became worried
‘I don’t think he slept well’ she said inwardly and got up from her seat.
She walked into his office and Oliver faced her
“I didn’t call for you” He said coldly and Jocelyn looked at him
“Leave” Oliver added and Jocelyn simply went out of the office.
Kate walked in immediately
“Jocelyn” she called and Jocelyn turned
“Oh,Kate” She smiled
“You should come over to the cinema,the staffs are watching the first episode of the ongoing movie” Kath said and Jocelyn turned to look at Oliver who was looking busy already
‘Should I tell him or not?’ She asked herself but in the end,she left with Kath since she have nothing to do.
They both entered the cinema together and everyone was there already
“Hey Jocejyn!” Jennifer and Cynthia called
“Hi” Jocelyn smiled and waved at them before sitting down together with Kath. Her eyes met with Wyatt who was sitting with Albert and Julius but she looked away and turned to the movie which started almost immediately
“Am I the only one who prefer Selene to Lucille?” Cynthia asked
“Me too,I love Selene,she’s so beautiful” Jennifer said
“Lucille is more beautiful,do you have eyes at all?” Julius scoffed
“I think Julius is right,Selene is just overrated that’s all…..”
“She’s not overrated,she’s a better actress than Lucille but maybe Lucille is more beautiful” Albert interrupted Kath
“What do you think Jocelyn?” Wyatt asked and everyone turned to Jocelyn
“Firstly,did Wyatt just talked?” Cynthia blinked twice and Leah rolled her eyes
“So Jocelyn,answer the question. Selene or Lucille” Albert asked
“Lucille” Jocelyn replied
“Awwnn why?” Kath asked
“Ion know” Jocelyn said
“Can we just concentrate on the movie please?” Leah asked and everyone became silent,not without Jocelyn and Leah looking at each other,Leah glared at her h@ťěfully and turned back to the movie.
Jocelyn sighed inwardly when she thought about Oliver again
‘I wonder if something bad happened’ she said inwardly but decided to concentrate on the movie instead.
