Jaxon’s POV

I should’ve stayed pissed at her after the way she acted cold to me in the library; most girls wouldn’t have gotten a second glance from me, but when I heard, there I was seated beside her.

Minutes into the movie but she wasn’t watching.

I could tell by the way her shoulders stayed stiff, every whisper made her fingers tighten on the popcorn tub without eating any of it.

“Let her spread it.” That was what I replied to her.

The words were barely out of my mouth when her fingers

  • Faking it with the Hockey Bad Boy   Chapter 98: You Should Have Told Me

    Hazel’s POV“I’m fine. Don't worry.”The message sits on my screen, small and careless, as if it carries no weight at all, yet the more I stare at it the tighter my chest feels, because this is not the kind of thing you send when everything is actually fine.Before I even realize I’m dialing his number.The call rings too long before dropping into voicemail. I pull the phone away with a sharp breath and call again, pacing the room now because standing still somehow feels worse.“Jaxon… pick up,” I mutter.I call again.This time, it connects and I start talking too fast, his name spilling out along with questions I can’t control…Until the voice that answers isn’t his.I freeze.“…Mrs. Carter?”My voice comes out uncertain, fragile, because I already know something is wrong.Her tone is calm, way too calm.“What’s going on?” The words tumble out. “Where is he?”There’s a long pause from her end and in that space, my mind fills in everything I don’t want to imagine.“We’re at the hosp

  • Faking it with the Hockey Bad Boy   Chapter 97: Where are you?

    Hazel’s POVI stormed out of the house, my steps uneven against the pavement, Trey's voice still playing in my head like he’s right behind me.I shake my head, trying to push it out, but it doesn’t leave. I decided it's best to take a walk to ease my feelings.Was Trey even joking? I should go to Homecoming with him now. Why is my gut telling me he is doing this to get back at Jaxon.. or he actually meant it. Anyways, it didn't matter because it wouldn't have changed my response.I reach for my phone without slowing down and scroll to Jaxon’s name, my thumb hovering for a second before I press call. The line rings once, twice, then goes straight to voicemail.“Jaxon… pick up,” I mutter under my breath, staring at the screen waiting patiently for him to respond to my calls..I dialed his number again and it still went to voice mail.When I got to the dorm, the first thing I checked was my phone for his missed calls but there was nothing.I landed on my back in the bed, the mattress dip

  • Faking it with the Hockey Bad Boy   Chapter 96: If I can't have her

    Trey’s POVI sat on the edge of the bed with my phone in my hand, staring at her name longer than I should, every moment she walked away from me like it didn’t matter, like I didn’t matter, and something in my chest tightens until I pressed call before I can talk myself out of it.She picks up on the third dial.“Trey?”Her voice comes in flat, no warmth, no excitement, no nothing. Memories of when Hazel was inseparable from me flashed, and I clenched my jaw. All that changed when Jaxon came into the picture.“Hello.” Her voice rang through the speaker, snapping me out of my thoughts“I need you to come home,” I say, keeping my tone steady. “I have something important to tell you.”She didn't say anything and I checked the screen to be sure, she hadn't just hung up but she was still there.“I don’t think that’s a good idea,” she replies, finally after letting out a sigh“It is,” I cut in, sharper this time, then I forced myself to ease it. “Just come, please.”Another pause stretche

  • Faking it with the Hockey Bad Boy   Chapter 95: What makes me happy

    Jaxon's POV It's been a very long day and the mood in the car was still cold from the aftermath of the game and Trey’s face-off.I didn't like the way Hazel was looking at me, I hated being an object of pity even if I know she is only concerned of my well-being So I picked up a conversation to cheer her up and lighten the mood.“Have you picked a homecoming dress yet?”The words come out lighter than I feel. My grip tightens briefly on the steering wheel before I force it to relax.Hazel turned, her brows lifting slightly, then shook her head. “No.”“Oh.. let's get you one then.” I said with a wide grin.She watched me for a second, like she’s deciding whether to argue, but the words never come. Finally, she exhales softly and looks ahead, her fingers drifting toward mine before stopping just short. I notice it and I don’t move my hand away.The drive stretches quietly. She keeps glancing out the window, then back at me, catching me looking more than once. I don’t pretend otherwise

  • Faking it with the Hockey Bad Boy   Chapter 94: This isn't over

    Hazel's POV I had barely been standing there for five minutes, but it felt like time had stretched into something eternity.My chest felt too tight, I couldn’t get a full breath in, and I found myself pacing without even realizing it, moving back and forth, back and forth.I trusted Jaxon to handle himself but the look I saw on Trey’s face earlier… it wouldn’t leave my head.Lately, Trey has been erratic and unpredictable and I didn't want Jaxon being a victim of his stupid behaviour so no matter how much I tried to shake it off, I couldn’t.‘BAM’The sound that came from inside the locker room made me flinch.My heart jumped straight into my throat as I rushed toward the door, my hand immediately going for the handle, adrenaline pushing me forward only to stop short when it wouldn’t budge.I swallowed hard, my pulse pounding so loudly in my ears it almost drowned everything else out.But not completely because the voices were getting louder now. I couldn’t make out the exact words,

  • Faking it with the Hockey Bad Boy   Chapter 93: Divided Ice

    Jaxon’s POVImmediately the door shut behind Hazel, the tension of the room became more unbearable Trey stepped forward immediately, his eyes locked on me. “What the hell was that out there?”I didn’t move. “What are you talking about?”“Don’t play dumb,” he snapped, his voice sharp enough to cut through the room.“Johnson scores and suddenly it’s all about you again.”A few of the guys shifted where they stood but none of them said a word.I leaned back against one of the lockers, arms folded across my chest .“I stood up to support my teammate.”Trey laughed, short and bitter. “Support? That’s what you call it?” He gestured toward the door. “The crowd wasn’t chanting Johnson’s name. They were chanting yours.”I didn’t answer him right away wondering about the point he was trying to prove.Johnson stood a few lockers away, his stick resting against the wall. He looked between us, his muscles tensed, like he didn’t want to be part of this.“That winning goal should’ve been his momen

    Hazel's POV The moment Jaxon’s lips touched mine, I felt immense heat course through my body like wildfire.The tingling sensation was just too electric.Every nerve ending came alive, every coherent thought scattered like they were never there. His hands were everywhere—my waist, my back, grazing

    Jaxon’s POV“This isn’t fair.”The words came out rough, torn straight from my throat, but I didn’t take them back. My chest felt like it was on fire, like someone had reached inside and was strangling my heart with both hands.“You can’t just leave like this, Hazel.”But she wouldn’t even look at
