MasukI hate jocks. Which is ironic considering my roommate is Northford University’s hockey captain. When I applied to NORTHFORD, I never thought I’d actually get in. Only five athletic scholarships are awarded each year, and somehow, against all odds, one of them went to me... Aurora Chen, figure skater, scholarship student. On my very first night on campus, I discover three things: One; housing accidentally assigned me a male roommate. Two; said roommate is Jayden. Campus hockey god. Arrogant menace. Human headache. And three? My boyfriend is cheating on me. In front of an entire hockey house. Before I can even process the humiliation, Jayden grabs me and kisses me. Now there’s a viral video circulating across campus, the athletic department is questioning our conduct, and both our scholarships are suddenly on the line. The only solution? Fake date each other until the scandal dies down. Did I mention that I hate jocks?
Lihat lebih banyak036AURORA Fuck no. Claudia is entirely something else. After spending the last few minutes before Jayden came in arguing about this. "You don't have to listen to her." I look up at Jayden who hasn't moved an inch since Claudia's remark. "I'll figure it out." "Yeah, she has absolutely nothing to wear." "That's not true." I raise my voice. This is so embarrassing. I don't even care much about looking all that for the gala. What do I know about a gala anyway? "What about you big guy?" Claudia asks Jayden.He looks at me, then back at her. "Me?""Yes. What are you wearing?" "A suit, what else?""I know. But... like, what colour?" She probes.I busy myself with checking out how my braids look on the mirror while Claudia subjects Jayden to an interrogation. Even though I'm pretending not to listen, or to be too concerned... I catch that Jayden is wearing a deep blue colour and from the conversation they're having, we are supposed to match or something of the sort.I do have a blue d
035GUYS GET THE DRESSJAYDEN I finally get some alone time with Mason after I drop Aurora at our dorm and we've just concluded practice and the little talk with Coach. It's long overdue, the talk I mean. It's something we were supposed to have a long time ago. And just think... I've been waiting for him to initiate the conversation whenever we're alone but he's never brought it up. Well... "So..." I start, walking in front of him and folding my arms. He raises a brow. "Something up?" Oh fucker. Don't play like you don't know what this is about. "Do I need to say it before you get the idea?" I ask, frowning a little. I don't like the way he's acting all clueless. "What?" He asks again. "It's been weeks..." I start with my best shot at an opening line. "And... we've not talked yet. Dude, we have to have this conversation." Mason is staring at me like I've lost my mind and it's putting me off. I certainly do not want to call her name before he can understand. Saying her nam
034GALA PREPAURORA I get back to the dorm with Claudia after Jayden forced me to get something for breakfast. I wasn't feeling it at all. After he told me about the event, I literally didn't have any words for him.But that apart, I've been thinking about the kiss. Every few seconds, my fingers would unconsciously brush over my lips before I'd catch myself and immediately stop.It was just for the cameras. Something just to keep the fake relationship believable. Nothing more.The second I push open the dorm room door, Claudia looks up from where she was sprawled across my bed. She'd left the diner ahead of me."There she is!" Claudia says, immediately sitting up. "How was your little date?""It wasn't a date." I roll my eyes. "He just said to stay and get breakfast together."She snorts. "Sure."I drop my bag onto my desk before kicking off my sneakers."It wasn't," I repeat, refusing to look at her. "We just sat together and had breakfast.""Mhm.""And a bunch of sophomore girls c
034HOW WELL DO YOU KNOW YOUR FAKE BOYFRIEND?JAYDENI've seen a handful of girls, but I've never seen one that looked like she's about to have a stroke. I'm not even kidding. Her eyes are pinned on the three girls standing by our booth, who are looking at us like we're some kind of viral Tiktok couple they'd just discovered. I can practically hear the frantic gears in her head as she plasters on a smile that looks more like a grimace."I don't think we're really..." she begins."Sure," I cut her off as I lean back against the booth.Aurora's turns to look at me. She stares at me, her dark eyes wide. Girl must think that I'm trying to get back at her. I don't even know why I'm doing this. What I know is that it's going to be fun and I love the idea of having fun with Aurora."Excuse me?" She mutters through teeth that are very much clenched. That's cute, considering she doesn't want the girls to hear her.I flash her my best, most obnoxious grin. "It does sound fun, Shortie. Why not
008JAYDEN CLEANED?AURORA"Come in,"Slowly, the door opens. Jayden steps inside wearing a black T shirt and faded ripped jeans that hang low on his hips. He looks around the room, and then at me. "Morning Shortie."I immediately grab a pillow and throw it at his face. He catches it, grinning smu
007 CLAUDIA AURORA The first thing that I notice when I open my eyes, is how messy the room I'm sleeping in is. It takes me a full five minutes to sit up and gather that I'm actually not where I'm supposed to be. After that it takes three minutes before I recall the previous events from last nig
006FIRST DATING RULE IN THE HISTORY OF TIMEAURORA Already dating? I stare at Jayden, my brain desperately trying to process the insanity of what he just said. The ringing in my ears almost drown out his words. Already dating? Which means that I cheated. I cheated on Brian. "Are you out of your
