"It's my business coz I love you. " Braxton yelled, before he could realized what he has just spilled out.

"Wait what!!!...

"Yes, I'm madly in love with you Rihanna..i just don't know how or When, all I know is that i'm senselessly in love with you,you have slowly became a part of my world Rihanna,i refuse to admit it back then,but the bond kept getting stronger each passing day..When I am with you I never want to part ways with you and when I'm without you I kept thinking about you, when you are not around me I feel empty and hollow within and when you're hurt it feels like my whole world is slowly crumbling that's because I love you. "Braxton said and held her hand.

Tears started escaping from Rihanna eyes, she sniffed then she'd cry again.

Those world melted her heart, she looked at Braxton and sniffed again.

She did that for like 2 minutes,two heart beat could clearly be heard.

It was thumping loudly and faster.

"Why are you silent? Please reply me else I'd di... " before he could complete his phrase Rihanna drew his face closer and slammed her lips on his.

Right that instance no one meant anything to them, it like they were the only one existing on earth.

His hands wrapped around her slimly waist, covering the space in between them.

Rihanna hands moved around Braxton hair as she lost herself in his peach breath and soft lips.

The kiss was moving in a slow pace, as their lips moved perfectly against each other, their lavender breath fanning each other.

His tongue licked her upper lips, gaining access into her mouth. Rihanna opened her mouth completely and he wasted no time in delving his tongue into her most awaiting mouth.

"I love you so much. "Rihanna said, finally broking the kiss to catch their breath,she then stare at him.

"For how long have you been loving me?. " She asked and he chuckled.

"The day we were working on our project,but I didn't fall completely that very day, I was still trying to make myself believe that I don't love you, not until I make those promises to you."Braxton muttered and she knock his head.

"Ouch, it hurt you know. "He winced.

"Why didn't you tell me? Huh? You kept your feelings for so long? What if it was to late and I ended up falling in love with someone else?. "She asked.

"You can't! Coz we're meant to be together, our heart are now connected. " Braxton said funnily, and she smiled secretly.

"Still yet why did you keep it from me?. "

"Coz back then you were a pain in the @ss,i couldn't tell you coz of i was scared of getting rejected,I was scared that you wouldn't be able to reciprocate my feelings,I was scared that you wouldn't love me back, coz then it was hatred we have for each other,that was why I chose to kept it away from you,I don't want my poor fragile heart broken."Braxton mumbled and she chuckled.

"It's not funny, why're you laughing?."Braxton asked, irritatingly.

"You heart can't get broken, coz have always love you back, yes Braxton have always been in love with you. "Rihanna said and Braxton stare at her.

He walked to her and cupped her cheek.

His eyes went to her lips which were parted,he licked his lower lips. His eyes went back to her eyes, this time she was staring back at him.

Love and passion were the only evident in their eyes.

"I love you. "He whispered, titling his head to the right, as his lips leaned closer to her.

"I love you also. " She whispered back,biting her lips in anticipation.

His lips met with her and the warmth of his lips sent a current sensation running through her body.

Vanessa car halted in front of star college, she sigh and got down.

"Wait here for me, I'd be back soon. "Vanessa told her driver and he nod.

She then began walking, when her eyes met Trista own, though she was standing afar.

"Your mom is here... "Aliyah told her and she gave her a dagger look.

"So!!. " She Asked Aliyah with her cold voice, which made her to flinched slightly.

"Let's go. "Trista said and walked away, her friends stare at Vanessa who have a blank looked on her face.

They smiled at her and followed Trista from behind.

As Vanessa was walking she bumped into Melanie.

Melanie looked at her and scoffed.

She was about walking when Vanessa stopped her.

She stare at Melanie from head to toe, and there's this weird connection she was having, for the first time in 23yrs.

It like her heart bleed when she saw her, there was this sting she was having, she doesn't know why?.

"Aren't you Trista, mom?. " Melanie asked, jolting her back to reality.

"Yes."Vanessa smiled at her.

"What made you come to visit her, for the first time though, coz I saw how Trista walked out from you. "Melanie muttered.

"Well,I didn't came to see her but I came to see Rihanna. " Vanessa said, and Melanie smiled fall.

"Oh, I see. "Melanie fake a nod.

"Can I please hug you?. " Vanessa asked and Melanie eyes widened.

"Who am I to refuse. "Melanie murmured, and ran to hug her.

The hug lasted for like 5 minutes, known of them were ready to let of each other.

Until Vanessa disengaged from the hug.

"What's your name?. "Vanessa asked.

"Melanie!!!. " Melanie replied, with a smile.

"Nice name you have got, see you around,Melanie!!!. "Vanessa wave at her before walking away.

Melanie smiled grew wider but when she remembered who Vanessa came to see.

The smiled suddenly disappeared.

Why those she despise the name Rihanna??

✯✯✯✯✯✯

Rihanna came out from the class when she saw Vanessa standing two miles away from her.

What those she want? Is she here to remind me about Trista?

Different thoughts ran in her mind, but she got no answer to them.. And the best way to get answer from her was to walk to her.

Slowly she started walking to Vanessa.

"Good day ma'am!! Heard you wanna see me?. " Rihanna asked, nervously.

"I won't be able to say it here!!. "Vanessa said to her and Rihanna wondered what.

✢20 MINUTES LATER✢

Rihanna was busy slurping on her noodles, maybe it was the fact that she didn't eat when coming to school.

Coz she was really hurt and angry that Braxton kissed Melanie and eating was not the best option for her.

But she's happy that their differences were now resolved,and he already confessed to her.

"Did you need more?. "Vanessa asked and she looked up at her.

Vanessa had brought her out earlier and here they're.

She requested to buy her noodles but Rihanna refused but with much pleading she agreed.

"No!! It's enough. " Rihanna muttered, Vanessa kept staring at how she was slurping the noodles.

She would stopped and drink water, then continued.

And she wouldn't lie she looked cute doing so.

"So tell me ma'am why did you brought me here?. "Rihanna asked, when she finished eating her noodles.

"It's about Deacon. " Vanessa stated.

"What about Deacon?."Rihanna asked as Vanessa started explaining things to her.

Rihanna gasped in shock.

Rihanna and her friends came out from the class.

"I'm hungry!. "Poppy whispered and held her tummy.

They got to the cafeteria and took their seat.

Students were filled inside the cafeteria,Presley came back holding a tray in her hand she place it on the table.

Poppy didn't waste any minutes before digging in.

"Rihanna taste this. "Poppy said and gave Rihanna a bite of her chicken.

"Hmm.. It taste nice. " Rihanna muttered and her eyes caught Braxton and his friends sitting on a table besides him.

She smiled and looked away.

Just then some set of girls came to join them at their table,Rihanna can't help but to notice how those girl were smiling at him and Braxton did worst by smiling at them back.

She gritted her teeth and balled her hands into a twist.

She sent daggers at the girls if only looks could kill.

She doesn't know what sudden feelings that consumed her at this very moment.

She watch how the girl stretch out her spoon to Braxton, and Braxton open his mouth widely and collect the food.

That's it,she heard nonsense of this crazy thing.

She stood up and walked to the rest room.

Braxton eyes trailed Rihanna. " Excuse me."He said.

Braxton twisted the door knob and entered, Rihanna face him and then look away.

He walked to her and grabbed her hand, Rihanna jerked her hand from him.

"I don't like the way those girls were smiling at you, and flying around you as if you were so some kind of bee on honey! I hate it. "Rihanna huffed out and Braxton looked at her.

"Don't tell me you were jealous.... " Braxton laughed out loud.
