Fake Dating my Ex's Worst Enemy 031
Chapter 31Astrid’s POVSleep came in pieces.It was not the deep and peaceful kind that wrapped around you and pulled you under, but the restless kind where your mind never really shut off. I lay curled on my side, my blanket half tangled around my legs and my face buried into my pillow as faint sunlight filtered through the thin curtains of our dorm.My head was still heavy, not from alcohol this time but from everything else.Ocean, Reis, Caitlin and that picture.God, that picture.Even in my half-asleep state, I could still see it so clearly.Ocean and Reis standing side by side and smiling like they didn’t hate each other.And that third boy in the background, the one who looked so much like Ocean…The thought barely had time to settle before my phone rang.The sound cut through the quiet like a blade making me groan softly as I shifted deeper into my pillow, trying to ignore it.Whoever it was could wait as I wasn’t in the mood.My phone kept ringing. It was relentless, annoy

Reis’s POVThe parking lot was quieter than usual.It was the kind of quiet that settles after a long day, when the noise of people fades into the background and all that’s left is the low hum of engines, distant chatter, and the occasional slam of a car door.I shoved my hands into my jacket pockets as I walked toward my car. My jaw was tight and my mind was running in circles.Practice had been brutal, not physically.It was the tension, the looks and the unspoken words hanging in the air every time Ocean and I ended up on the same side of the rink.It was getting worse and I knew it.In fact, everyone knew it.Hugh had pulled me aside twice already, telling me to get my head straight and stop making everything personal.But how the hell was I supposed to do that when everything was personal. When every time I looked across the ice I saw him and when every time I thought about him I saw her with him looking at him the way she used to look at me.My grip tightened inside my pockets

Astrid’s POVI couldn’t stop smiling.It was completely and utterly ridiculous but I couldn’t help it.I was sprawled across my bed, staring up at the ceiling like it held the answers to everything. My lips curved into the kind of smile that made my cheeks ache. Every few seconds, I would turn onto my side, then onto my back again, then bury my face into my pillow like that would somehow contain whatever was happening to me.It didn’t because the moment I closed my eyes, I was back there in his room and on his bed.My heart fluttered wildly in my chest as I replayed it for what had to be the hundredth time.The way he had looked at me, the way his fingers had brushed my cheek and the way his voice dropped when he asked if I was going to overthink it.And then, the kiss itself.God. A quiet giggle escaped my lips before I could stop it, and I rolled onto my stomach, kicking my legs slightly against the mattress like a complete fool.“What is wrong with you?” Dawn’s voice interrupted

Astrid’s POVThe moment he said those words, I crossed my arms over my chest, watching him carefully.His jaw was tight and his gaze was somewhere far off like he wasn’t really here. The tension around him hadn’t disappeared, even after everything that just happened outside.If anything, it had only shifted into something quiet, heavier and more dangerous.Sucking my teeth, I tilted my head slightly, studying him. “You’re really not going?” I asked.He let out a slow breath, rubbing the back of his neck before finally meeting my eyes then he said, “No.”There was no hesitation in his voice, no second thoughts either. Just a quiet finality that made something in my chest tighten.“I’m sorry,” he added after a moment, his tone softer now. “You probably wanted to go. I just…” he paused, searching for the right words. “I don’t feel like being around people right now.” He added after a brief silence. I stared at him for a second longer, then shook my head immediately.“No,” I said quic

Ocean’s POVThe moment I heard her voice, something inside me snapped.Not visibly, not in a way anyone else would notice but internally, everything tightened.Caitlin chose to be here of all the places and of all time.The moment she said those words, I felt Astrid shift beside me.Her body went tensed, like she already sensed the shift in the air, even if she didn’t fully understand it yet.Smart girl.I didn’t turn immediately, I didn't acknowledge her right away because I knew, the second I did, it would become real.But then Astrid moved like she was about to leave and that snapped me out of it.My hand shot out before I could think, fingers wrapping around her wrist, and pulling her back toward me.She stumbled slightly, her shoulder brushing against my chest as I steadied her.“We will leave together,” I muttered under my breath, low enough for only her to hear.Her head tilted slightly, confusion flashing across her face, but she didn’t pull away.Slowly, I turned to face Cait

Astrid’s POVThe roar of the crowd was deafening.It wasn’t just noise, it was alive. It pulsed through the air, vibrating through the bleachers, through my chest and through every nerve in my body. My hands stung from clapping so hard and my voice was already hoarse from screaming, but I didn’t care because he had just scored.Ocean had just scored the final goal, the one that sealed the game where both teams were neck tied. I shot up from my seat, my heart racing wildly as the scoreboard lit up, confirming the win. Around me, students jumped, shouted and hugged each other like we had all just done something monumental.But my eyes were locked on him.He skated across the ice like he owned it, his movements sharp and controlled even in victory. His teammates swarmed him, slamming into him, yelling and celebrating but somehow, even in the middle of all that chaos, he still stood out like he always did. “Your man is insane!” Dawn screamed beside me, grabbing my arm and shaking it

Astrid’s POV“Hey,” he waved, still smiling. Pressing my lips into a thin line, I leaned back in my chair, crossing my arms tightly over my chest like that alone could create distance between us.“What do you want?” I asked flatly.He didn’t flinch, didn’t look surprised either. It was like he had

Astrid’s POVAvoiding someone should have been easy, at least, that was what I told myself when I woke up this morning.It was a simple plan; go to class, keep my head down, don’t look around too much and most importantly avoid places where I would bump into Ocean.Because after last night, after t

Astrid’s POVThe words on the page stopped making sense after the third time I read the same paragraph.“Focus,” I muttered under my breath but it only got even worse. Biting my lower lip, I was staring hard at the book in my hands, trying to force my brain to focus but it didn’t.Instead, my eyes

Ocean’s POV“Bro, you’re not even trying anymore.” Calvin’s voice cut through the room as his character got taken out again.I didn’t look at him, didn’t react either. I just tightened my grip on the controller, my eyes fixed on the screen as my character reloaded and moved forward.“I am trying,”
