Emily’s POV

The kiss still burned on my lips as we slipped out of the restroom and made our way up to the rooftop terrace.

The night air was cool, carrying the distant hum of the city below.

I didn’t know why I followed him. Maybe because my legs moved before my brain could stop them.

Maybe because some foolish part of me needed to hear what he had to say.

Or maybe I was just tired of running from the truth.

Alex stopped near the railing, looking out over the glittering lights. I stood a

  • Accidentally Yours, Hockey Captain   Chapter 68: The Night I Ran

    Emily’s POVThat night I thought I couldn’t be there. I took my backpack, filled it with some of my clothes, my laptop, and the things I needed. I opened the window of my room and tied my sheets so I could go downstairs.I sent a short message to Kara. “Kara where are you? Meet me at the bar now.”I rushed away from the house, my heart ached. It felt so sad when the person I thought understood and cared about me the most turned out to be just locking me in their cage.In the bus I listened to music with my airpods, while scrolling Instagram until a message from Will was seen.“Do you have any plans for tomorrow? I want to invite you to lunch, while discussing your painting if you have time.” I ignored it. I immediately deleted the message from Will and locked my phone, staring out the window.When I arrived at the bar, I immediately found a seat near the bar, dropped my backpack underneath and ordered a drink.Not long after, Kara was heard calling me and immediately hugged me tight

  • Accidentally Yours, Hockey Captain   Chapter 67: The Break That Couldn’t Be Fixed

    Emily’s POV I sat at the dinner table, pushing my food around with my fork. The smell of Mom’s cooking usually comforted me, but tonight it felt heavy. Dad cleared his throat, looking at me with concern. “Paris? Are you sure?” he said. “Paris is too far, Emily. If you want your painting to be displayed in the gallery, I can ask for it from one of my painter friends. You don’t have to go that far, alone.” Mom nodded, passing the rice bowl to Dad. “Your father is right. Why do you have to go to Paris if you only want your painting to be the longest in the gallery? Mrs. Anderson should be able to display your paintings in her gallery. There is no need to go to Paris to do that.” I stared at my plate, holding back my emotions. I didn’t understand why they could say that to me. “I know you’re worried. But this is a big opportunity. Mrs. Anderson’s friend invited me specifically. It’s not just any gallery. It’s in Paris.” Dad set his fork down. “No, you can’t go. I’ll call my friend

  • Accidentally Yours, Hockey Captain   Chapter 66: The Secret That Changed Everything

    Emily’s POV Kara came to my house after class, and I told her I had a surprise for her.“Okay, now tell me, Em! Don’t make me wonder,” Kara said, sitting on the edge of my bed with wide eyes.I sat across from her, trying to keep my voice steady. “Mrs. Anderson said her friend from Paris is opening his third gallery soon and… he wants me to collaborate with him.”“Wait! Are you serious? Paris?” Kara said, and I just nodded before she jumped at me and hugged me tightly.“You have to take it! You don’t have to think about anything, Em. This is your life, and I know you’ll be successful if you go out there and take this opportunity! Oh my god, I’m so happy to hear that, Em.” Kara released her hug and looked at me, her face glowing.“Alex is there too, right?” she continued. “I think this is God’s way of bringing you back to him.”I just smiled, but my stomach twisted a little. “But I don’t know if my parents will agree to this. I think Julian knows where Alex is now, and if he finds out

  • Accidentally Yours, Hockey Captain   Chapter 65: The Call That Opened Doors

    Emily’s POV A week had passed since I finally heard Alex’s voice. I told Kara about it the next day, and she was even more excited than I was. “He called you? After six months? Em, that means he still cares!” she had said, her voice full of hope. I decided to follow Alex on Instagram. Whether it was a stupid decision or not, Alex had no reason to contact me if he was with someone right now, unless he was a playboy.“You seem to be in a good mood today,” Mrs. Anderson said as she walked into the studio. “I can see significant progress in your painting, as well as the colors you’ve chosen.”I looked up from the canvas, brush still in hand. “Ah, you could say that. I feel more alive now, a little more alive actually, and I have to finish what I started, right?”Mrs. Anderson smiled at me, her eyes warm. “That’s wonderful to hear. You’ve been working so hard. It shows in the brushstrokes. Keep that energy, Em. It suits you.”I nodded, dipping the brush back into the paint. “I’ll try. T

  • Accidentally Yours, Hockey Captain   Chapter 64: The Voice I Couldn’t Answer

    Emily’s POVI walked through the front door without looking back at Julian. I didn’t say good night to Mom or Dad. I just went straight to my room, closed the door quietly, and flopped onto the bed. The ceiling stared back at me, blank and cold. Tears started falling before I could stop them. They came silently at first, then harder, soaking into my pillow. I didn’t even know what these tears were for anymore. The baby. Alex. The life I thought I could have. Everything felt lost, like pieces of myself were scattered and I didn’t know how to put them back together.I curled on my side, staring at the wall. Six months. Six months of pretending I was okay, of painting the same unfinished canvas, of carrying this secret weight. Julian didn’t understand. Mom and Dad didn’t know the full truth. And now this call… this voice I had tried so hard to forget.Knock… knock…“Emily, are you okay, honey?” Mom’s voice came through the door, soft and worried.I wiped my face quickly and sat up.

  • Accidentally Yours, Hockey Captain   Chapter 63: The Dinner I Never Wanted

    Emily’s POV “So, what about your work?” Julian asked Will. “I heard you’ve been busy lately because you’re still adjusting to your company, right?” Will took a sip of his wine and nodded. “Well, I don’t really like business, but I have no choice. My dad only trusts me to continue his business. We also invested in your hockey team, you know” Julian’s eyes widened. “Oh, really? I just found out about that. Right now, I’m just focusing on training to join the international team. I’ll be joining them in a few days.” “In a few days?” I said, turning to Julian. “You didn’t even tell me, Mom, or Dad. We thought you’d already joined the team.” Julian shrugged, cutting into his steak. “Oh, about that, it’s hard to explain, but the coach said I’ll be transferred in a few days.” I noticed Will kept stealing glances at me across the table. His gaze felt too intense, too interested. It made me uncomfortable. I couldn’t just leave and disrespect Julian, but I wanted to be anywhere else. “B

    Emily’s POVMy legs felt loose and heavy at the same time as I stumbled back toward the bar. The music pulsed louder in my ears, each beat slamming against my skull. Kara’s warning from moments ago still rang in my head, but I pushed it away. “Another one,” I told the bartender, slapping my hand

    Emily’s POVMy body moved on its own, hips swaying harder than I ever had before, arms raised like I could push the pain out through my fingertips.

    Emily’s POVI stared at myself in the mirror and barely recognized the girl looking back.The tight black dress Kara lent me hugged every curve, short enough to make me tug at the hem nervously. My eyes were still puffy from crying, but I’d managed to cover most of the redness with makeup. Lip glo
