Sky POV

The conference was in two days.

And I hated every second of it.

Not because I was scared of the school or the professors.

But because of Dad.

Hunter had already given me his word that he was coming.

And that was exactly the problem.

I sat on the hanging net swing chair outside the dorm building, rocking slowly as the wind pushed it back and forth.

What did they even call this thing?

A hammock chair?

A swing?

I didn’t fucking care.

All I cared about was the heavy feeling in my chest.

    Sky POVMy heart slammed so hard against my ribs that it hurt.For one impossible second, my entire body forgot how to breathe.Someone…Someone had just touched me.The fingers weren’t rough.They weren’t violent.They simply rested between my shoulder blades.Warm.Human.Real.Every hair on my body stood up.The night that had been nothing but the sound of crickets and distant laughter from my classmates suddenly became unbearably quiet.Too quiet.I spun around so quickly that my backpack nearly slipped from my shoulder.“…Ethan?”The name escaped before my brain even caught up.He stood there with both hands buried inside his jacket pockets, his red hair shifting gently with the evening breeze as if nothing unusual had happened.His smile was… ordinary.Too ordinary.Almost apologetic.“I told you not to scare people,” I muttered, pressing a hand against my chest.“My heart almost stopped.”A soft chuckle escaped him.“I know.”“Sorry.”“I couldn’t help myself.”I let out a breat

    SKY POV I don’t know if what happened between Ace and me could even be called a breakup.We never said the words.He never told me we were over.I never told him to leave.But somehow…everything between us felt different.The room was quieter than it had ever been.No more random hugs while I was studying.No more waking up to him stealing half my blanket because he claimed I was “hogging the bed.”No more teasing.No more kisses before class.Nothing.Just silence.It was funny.For someone who used to complain about Ace talking too much, I would’ve done anything to hear him call me an idiot again.He wasn’t avoiding me.Not exactly.He just… gave me space.Too much space.Every time I entered the room, he’d look up, meet my eyes for a second, then quietly return to whatever he was doing.If I went to sleep early…he came back late.If I stayed up…he somehow managed to fall asleep before I could even think of starting a conversation.It was almost impressive.Like he’d memorized m

    ACE POVI didn’t care.That was my first mistake.The entire university practically lost their minds when the new exchange student arrived.Red hair.Foreign accent.Pretty smile.Pretty eyes.Pretty everything.Girls liked him.Guys liked him.Lecturers liked him.Even the old woman that sold snacks outside the faculty building liked him.I didn’t.Or at least I told myself I didn’t.Because I already had Sky.And Sky was enough.More than enough.The problem started when Sky laughed.Not at me.At him.I was sitting across the cafeteria when I heard it.That laugh.His real laugh.The one that made his eyes disappear.The one that made him throw his head back slightly.The one I loved.And Ethan was the reason for it.Who the actual fuck is Ethan?! Something ugly twisted inside my chest.I hated it immediately.Because after everything Sky and I had survived together, I should have trusted him.I did trust him.I trusted Sky.What I didn’t trust was the feeling Ethan gave me.The f

    SKY We were living our best life, at last. And I really thought it was the ending of our story, but I guess I was a fool to have judged too soonThe first text came quietly like a mistake, like something I could ignore.It popped into my phone and I read it without second thought, I wish I didn’t “I want to have you.”At first I laughed, nevrous and confusedThought it was a prank or something Until the second one came.Then the third.Then they stopped feeling like jokes.“I’ve been watching you.”“You don’t know me yet, but you will.”“You belong to me.”My hands started shaking, cause it was enough for me to notice.Just enough for me to realize this wasn’t normal.…..“Ace…”He looked up immediately.He always does, like my voice is something he’s trained himself to respond to.“What happened?”I didn’t speak, just handed him my phone, and watched the expression of his face change completely His eyes darkened.His jaw tightened.Something dangerous slipped into his expression
