All Chapters of Ugly and the prince: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Alex POV                         **Monday started like every other bustling weekday.... With noise! I groaned as I buried my head in my pillow, trying to get more sleep. But, my room mates and besties had sworn not to let me. "Wake up Alex, we've got an early class today ". I heard Tanya say as I felt something like a hard pillow hit my back. I struggled to keep my eyes open. I hated Monday mornings. I really did! I got up with a rather splitting headache, threw some few pain killer pills into my mouth and took my bath. It was Monday, so I was going to have really serious classes.. Which also meant I had to dress up.. Seriously. I put on a black skirt and yellow long sleeved chiffon top, buttoned up to my neck. My hair was in its usual

                          **Alex POV                          **I've got to admit it. One hour alone with Lucas Cage when he's mad at you is hard as hell! Sometimes when I make a random joke, I look into those blue eyes praying to see them light up with amusement, only to meet cold and indifferent ones. And that feeling sucks! He's been catching up very easily. Turns out he was not as dumb as the school authorities thought he was. He just needed a little push. And I was trying my best to do that for him. I sat down on our usual spot in the e-libary waiting for him to come. I was getting really agitated until I realized he had ten minutes more. I tried to relax against my seat. He had always made me so nervous.. Always.

Lucas POV                        **To be honest ,I hadn't expected Alexander to jump at my offer like that . I was waiting for the akward silence that always followed her stare , the look that made me feel like some sort of monster ,but instead she smiled and said...yes.I found myself relaxing after she gave her reply. I had thought she will find me weird and appauling openly making advances at her. But she chose to smile ,blush actually.Could it get any better?Then again...I had no idea what I wanted to do with her..As I walked to my room ,I could only think of how to sweep her off her feet.Some sort of romantic dinner?Candle lights?Roses on the bed?Nope !That would send some sort of message I wasn't supposed to send..yet."Why don't you take her to your mum's ha

Lucas POV**It wasn't easy pulling away from her, from all of what might have happened.I could have just continued, Alex would have surely let me. I knew!But something in me told me there was more to dates than making out and having - most times - casual sex.You could get to know each other better, become great friends,share thoughts , heartfelt opinions , eat together, so many things.Where had this voice of reasoning been all my life?As she took my hand to rise from the bed, her eyes never left mine .She must be wondering , thinking .She would never understand how special she was to me.Even I didn't understand."Dinner is served"I said , leading her to a table for two prepared in another room of Ariana.This one was dimly lit, a mixture of red and deep blue lights.I could see neon posters all over the room, with

Lucas POV**I sat quietly in the hall , my pen on my desk by the side of my booklet.I looked up at the clock , ten minutes past three.I sighed as I stretched on my seat , twenty minutes more and it will all be over.I relaxed on the seat . The past one hour had been really tough.I looked down at my booklet again , I had worked really hard on this , studied till late at night , researched , met my lecturers , done all I could possibly do to pass all tests throughout this week.I hadn't showed up at the basketball court or at any club , I could only pray it'll pay off , I was confident as well.I just wanted to make my father proud of me. He needed to know I was good for something , I was his son after all."Okay students , pens up"I heard Professor White say , as he walked towards us.I watched as students gave their booklets to him.He smiled at three of his favourite students be
