Chapter: Ch 90 "I don't know. It's just... I never liked this ride. You and Chance go on since you like it so much. I'll go get us some candy floss, yeah?" "Okay" I chirped, happily. Aaron smiled in return, kissing me on the cheek lightly "Be right back" he whispered and with that he moved away from me, said a quick goodbye to Chance before heading towards the candy floss machine. I yanked Chance by his upper arm and pushing him into the seat beside me. The ride started and, honestly, it was cooler than I had imagined, but that's not what I was thinking about. I started thinking of how much better it would be if Aaron was sitting in the seat beside me. The ride ended shortly after with me blabbing to Chance about how cool the ride was. I was expecting Aaron to be standing there, smirking; some candy floss in his hand, but he wasn't there. But that wasn't what broke my heart. I looked over to the line of the ride to find that the 'ticket girl' was also nowhere in sight. Aaron's POV of

Chapter: Ch 89 Justin cleared his throat, hiding the hand that held my arm. "Can we come in?" He asked, gesturing to the inside of Aaron's house and, although the question in itself was polite, it seemed so blunt and cold coming off Justin's tongue. Aaron nodded numbly before moving aside and allowing us entry. Justin took no time in dragging me inside and into the living room. Aaron followed closely behind, confusion apparent on his features. I could tell he knew this was no regular meet up. There were words that needed to be spoken. Aaron's POV when Lexi and Justin visit his house after Sam's death ____________________________ Desolate; empty, what other words could be used to describe how he felt inside? What other descriptors would be apt to explain the turmoil that wreaked within? 2 weeks. It had been a mere 2 weeks since his mother had left him. He couldn't quite tell if it felt like an eternity had passed or if it still felt like that very morning when he had see

Chapter: Ch 88 Everything. She was everything, he knew it in the moment that their lips touched. He knew it in the moment he felt the soft caress of her lips. It was all he could do to close the small gap remaining between their bodies and his arm encircled her waist, while his hand held her face gently, afraid she would break her with his touch. She was, in all essences, precious to him in ways that made him scared to lose her. Even now, when she did nothing, it created a fear in him. Had he truly lost her or- rather- did she not love him to begin with? Yes, she had said she loved him in the hospital but his mind was quick to disregard that. She was in a moment of angst, trying to get him to not leave the hospital. If she had meant her confession, would she not have thought it important to tell him anything pertaining to her illness? Yet, with his lips on hers now, he so badly wished for that very confession to be true. He knew she felt something for him, albeit it if it be scarce. He could

Chapter: Ch 87 Not Justin, no. "I need to tell you something. Something I should have told you before." Justin disclosed and Aaron's heart stopped then at the dampened tone of his friend's voice, his mind going erratic. Not Justin, right? Still, the lowered tone of his friend's voice unsettled him as did the long silence that followed and Aaron's hands clenched by his side. "What?" He asked curiously when Justin said nothing, eyebrows furrowed. He tried to speak with as much casualness as he could fathom, but his voice still came off as terse. It was then that his eyes shifted towards Lexi. If not him then Justin would have probably told her, but the confusion on her face showed him that she knew nothing. He ignored the shudder up his spine at her meeting his eyes as he turned away promptly focusing on the matter at hand. Then finally, with baited breaths, he lifted a hand and motioned between Avalon and Justin. "You're not..." Aaron's voice drawled off before he completed his senten

Chapter: Ch 86 "You still love me and you know it!" She screeched loudly, making his ears ache. Had she always been this loud? Her accusation made his heart pulse in anger and he lurched forward without thought. "I don't love you, Avalon. How can I when I love Lexi?" He only realised what he had said after a silence fell. Everything stopped for him there. Having realised what he said, Aaron froze. He hadn't even known he had felt that way, never mind actually confessing. It was just so instinctive; it felt right for him to say. Yet, still, he couldn't placate himself now, not when Lexi was still silent. He tried to turn to look at her, but couldn't quite find the courage. For once, Aaron was shy. He could feel all their stares on him but couldn't find himself to look up, especially not at her. He could feel her staring at him, almost as though she was waiting for him to look up at her yet- right now- he was finding the carpet to be a more interesting sight. Had he actually just confes

Chapter: Ch 85 Avalon paid no heed to this and continued. "You still love me and you know it!" She screeched. Aaron dragged a hand through his hair in frustration. "I don't love you, Avalon. How can I when I love Lexi?" He shouted. Everything stopped for me there. Aaron froze in his tracks, having realised what he said. But, I couldn't concentrate on anything over the beating of my heart. Aaron's POV when Avalon ripped the blanket. _____________________________________________ "Are you guys done yet?!" Danny whined, a hand covering his face with his eyes. He was never one to prefer the violent video games and Aaron smirked from where he was sat on his bed. "Maybe. Maybe not." He drawled teasingly and Danny let out a louder whine, making Aaron laugh. It was Justin who put an end to it who stood up from the bed, putting the controller away. "Stop whining or I'll turn the console back on." He said bluntly and it put an immediate

Chapter: Ch 20 A couple of weeks had passed since Logan and Grace made their relationship official, and things had never felt better. Grace found herself attending every home hockey game she could, proudly sitting with Daisy, Morris, and the rest of the friends girlfriends. Each game was electric, and she couldn't help but cheer the loudest when Logan was on the ice. She noticed how he always seemed to play a little harder when he spotted her in the stands. Their study sessions remained consistent, though they had taken on a different tone. When they were in the library, they manage to focus on their work—most of the time. Still, little flirtations always slipped through. Logan would nudge her foot under the table, lean over to point out something in her notes, only to let his fingers brush hers, or sneak quick kisses when no one was looking. But when their study sessions took place in one of the study rooms, it was a whole different story. Grace would try to set up her books and laptop, deter

Chapter: Ch 19 As the night went on, the atmosphere at the bar became more lively. The music played louder, the lights flashing in time with the beat, and the crowd grew rowdier. Grace, feeling more and more at ease, found herself laughing and enjoying the night with the friends. She'd had a couple of drinks by now, and the alcohol made her feel warm, carefree, and just a little bit tipsy. "Hey, I'm going to the bathroom," Grace told the girls, her words slightly slurring as she stood up from the booth. She wobbled a little but caught herself, flashing them a playful grin. They all nodded and waved her off, as she made her way through the crowded bar toward the bathroom. Once inside, Grace leans against the sink for a moment, taking a breath and trying to steady herself. The mirror reflected her slightly flushed face, and she couldn't help but smile at how good she felt. She had just started to freshen up when her phone buzzed in her pocket. Pulling it out, she saw Charlie's name flash acros

Chapter: Ch 18 As Grace and Logan continue their quiet conversation, Logan's phone buzzes on the bed beside him. He picks it up and saw a text from Garrett. Garrett: Hey, we're heading to the bars tonight. Allie has Grace covered, she'll be able to get in. You coming? We know where you are. Logan chuckles softly, showing Grace the message. "Looks like the crew's heading out," he said with a grin. Grace raises an eyebrow, her curiosity piqued. "Allie has me covered?" she asked, trying to make sense of it. Logan's grin widens. "Yeah, she's apparently getting you a fake ID so you can come out with us," he said, amusement clear in his voice. "They know we're together, so they're going to make sure you can join the fun." Grace laughs, shaking her head in disbelief. "A fake ID? Seriously?" Logan shrugs, his expression a mix of teasing and affection. "They've got it all planned out, apparently. Allie's been making moves for a while now to make sure you can fit in with the group," he said, si

Chapter: Ch 17 The sound of skates cutting across the ice echoed through the rink as Logan, Garrett, Dean, and Tuck took a break near the bench. Their team was mid-practice, but that didn't stop the guys from catching up between drills. Dean stretched his arms behind his head. "Man, I need a damn nap after this. Or at least a giant burger. Maybe both." Garrett smirked. "Or you could try stretching before practice like a normal person, dumbass." Tuck snorted but turned his attention to Logan, who had been uncharacteristically quiet—at least for Logan. "Alright, Logan, what's up? You didn't come back to the house last night. The guys are speculating." Garrett, overhearing. "Yeah, where were you? You've been glowing all morning." Logan hesitates for a moment, then shrugs deciding there was no point in hiding it. "I was with Grace," he admits, his voice casual but firm. Dean's eyebrows shot up. "With Grace, huh?" Garrett grins. "As in, you're finally together-together?" Logan nods, una

Chapter: Ch 16 The early morning light filtered through the blinds, casting a soft glow over the small dorm room. Logan was sprawled out on Grace's twin bed, one arm draped protectively around her waist as they slept soundly, their breaths steady and in sync. Grace stirred slightly, snuggling closer to Logan, the warmth of his presence a comforting cocoon. The click of the door echoed in the room as Daisy quietly let herself in, trying to be as discreet as possible. She carried her bag in one hand and snacks in the other, her eyes bleary from an early morning. She dropped her bag near her desk and turned to glance at Grace's bed, her face breaking into a small smile when she noticed Grace still sound asleep. "Must've been a late night," Daisy murmured to herself, setting her snacks down on her desk. She turned her back to the bed and began unpacking her things, oblivious to the fact that Logan was tucked under the covers next to Grace. Logan shifted slightly, his hand tightening around Grace

Chapter: Ch 15 Charlie showed up right on time, knocking on Grace's dorm door with a confident grin. He was dressed casually but still looked put together, and his easy demeanor immediately put Grace at ease. "You look great," he said as his eyes swept over her. "Thanks," Grace said, a small smile tugging at her lips. "You ready?" "Let's do it," Charlie said, gesturing for her to follow him. The drive to the party was short, and while Charlie kept the conversation light and friendly, Grace couldn't shake the flutter of nerves in her stomach. As they pulled up to the house, the music was already thumping, and people were milling around outside. Stepping inside with Charlie, Grace immediately felt the weight of people's stares. Whether it was real or imagined, she couldn't tell, but she felt hyper-aware of herself. Was it because she was there with Charlie? Or was it because Logan wasn't by her side like he usually was at these things? "You okay?" Charlie asked, noticing her hesitation.
