"Wherever you want to go," Trey replied.

When I texted him earlier, his phone chimed at the front of the room.

This instant back-and-forth naturally caught everyone's attention.

In an instant, everyone's gaze on us became charged with meaning.

That night, Trey walked me all the way back to my dorm.

The second I stepped inside, my roommates swarmed me, teasing me relentlessly.

"Alright, cough it up. What's the deal between you and Mr. Gomez?"

"Is he the boyfriend you were talking about

    A classmate walked over to invite me. "Alisha, are you coming?"I shook my head gently. "No, today's my birthday. I want to spend it with my boyfriend."The second those words left my mouth, everyone froze. Even Trey, who was still up at the podium, stared at me in absolute disbelief.Quickly wrapping up his work, he marched straight over to me."Are you making us official?" he asked under his breath.I looked at him, completely unfazed. "Depends on your behavior."Our quiet exchange happened to be overheard perfectly by the students nearby. The entire room instantly erupted into cheers.Amid the teasing, my face burned with embarrassment.Noticing my discomfort, Trey took my hand and led me out of the lecture hall and straight back to his office.Once inside, I tried my best to play it cool by sipping the water he poured for me, but inside, I was practically dying of embarrassment.Trey couldn't hide the sheer excitement dancing in his eyes as he asked cautiously, "Are we… r

What's the deal between you and Mr. Gomez?""Is he the boyfriend you were talking about before?""Where did you guys go today? Why are you back so late?""You were out alone. Don't tell me nothing happened!"Looking at my overly enthusiastic roommates, I let out a sigh and decided to tell them the truth."Actually, back in high school, I found a tutor from Carthen who helped me with my studies. Over time, I fell for his kindness, patience, and the way he talked."I was desperate to get into Carthen just to be with him, but it turns out my genius tutor was actually at Bellridge

    Seeing me on the verge of tears, Trey instantly panicked. "Hey, don't cry. If you don't want to go to Carthen, we can just stay here."Thinking back on everything I had done, I felt completely overwhelmed.To make matters worse, I had literally told everyone that this was my boyfriend, completely oblivious to the fact that the actual guy was sitting right across from me the entire time.…The autumn breeze blowing through the campus carried a biting chill.I hadn't planned on staying out after class, so I was only wearing a thin hoodie. Standing in the freezing wind, I couldn't stop shivering.But I tried my best to play it cool in front of Trey. I subtly rubbed my hands together to catch some warmth.I kept my head down and walked ahead.Suddenly, a wave of warmth enveloped me.A black-and-white varsity jacket had been draped over my shoulders. Instantly, a comforting scent surrounded me.I looked up, meeting his eyes.Perhaps it was that gaze that shattered the defenses ar

    Trey's lecture had to be brought to a halt.The lecture hall immediately dissolved into whispers about who could possibly be on the other end. Who possessed the power to make the ever-professional Trey check his phone mid-lecture?"Trey is actually texting during class. Who do you think it is?""Is that even a question? Who else would he care that much about besides a girlfriend?"I was too buried in my own misery to pay attention to the gossip. Staring down at my phone, I let out a helpless sigh and put it away, only to hear my name echo through the room. "Alisha."I stood up, completely dazed. "…Huh?"Trey's voice was gentle. "No phones during class."My face flushed. "Right, sorry."It really was true that they could see everything from the podium. I had only glanced at my phone for a second and got caught immediately.Up at the front, Trey's phone fell completely silent again.At that moment, that strange feeling crept back into my mind.No way. That was impossible, righ

    As I spoke, I couldn't stop apologizing to my tutor in my head. "I'm so sorry. I'm using you as a shield again."Once I finished speaking, Trey didn't press further. He just offered a gentle smile. His eyes were practically sparkling.…For some reason, his mood seemed exceptionally good today.Even in simple, casual clothes, he completely stood out. A few ladies in the class started whispering and blushing, and I couldn't help but sneak a few glances myself.My roommate next to me was still swooning.Just as I was about to tell her to pipe down, I looked up and locked eyes with the man at the podium.His eyes were calm and unreadable. My heart skipped a beat, and I quickly buried my face back in my textbook.Every time our eyes met, a strange sensation would flutter through my chest.When I looked at him, my mind would always instinctively wander back to my tutor.But wasn't he at Carthen University?Lately, memories of my online crush had been constantly flooding my mind,

  • Dumped After Confession, Hunted at University   Chapter 5

    To help everyone bond, our class went out for a group dinner that night, and the conversation was loud and chaotic.I had never been a fan of big crowds, so I instinctively pulled out my phone and started scrolling out of boredom.Glancing up, I noticed Trey sitting directly across from me, also staring at his phone.For someone usually so vibrant and outgoing, he sat there quietly, looking like a total outsider tonight.As if sensing my gaze, he looked up. The moment our eyes met, my heart did a violent flip.Unsure how much longer the dinner would drag on, I unlocked my phone again, planning to find a web novel to pass the time.Suddenly, someone called me out, "Alisha, a young lady as pretty as you can't possibly be single, right?"Instantly, the entire table turned to look at me.My anxiety spiked, and I practically curled my toes in embarrassment.If I said no, everyone would probably start teasing me and trying to set me up.There was no way I was putting myself through
