Hazel's POV

When we left Mr. Reed's office, I didn't believe I could move my legs. The day was as exhausting as I had predicted but I think it got worse after hearing that my fate now lies in my dad's hand.

Jaxon didn’t say much in the car as we drove to his apartment, but he never let go of my hands and that was atleast soothing.

When he quenched his engine in the parking lot of his apartment, he looked me straight in my eyes and whispered

"Hazel, I am not letting you stay in the spare room even tonight. I'm not letting let you off my sight."

His words steadied something inside me, so i just nodded.

He didn't still let go of my hands as we walked into the house, his thumb brushed slow circles against my palm, his eyes never leaving me as we walked into the living room.

Johnson was the first to speak. “Hey, Hazel, you good?” His voice was casual, but his eyes flickered between us probably because of what haf happened earlier after practice.

Before I could answer, Jaxon’s hand

  • Faking it with the Hockey Bad Boy   Chapter 55: Fighting my enemy

    Trey's POV I stormed into the Ice Hounds’ apartment building, my teeth clenched so tight my jaw ached. Every step rattled through my chest making my heart beat accelerate. My blood boiled hotter than it had in weeks, maybe months. O’Malley’s voice replayed in my head "She is not in the spare room. She sleeps in his bed every other night."I became restless that evening when I got home. I didn’t even call to hear from her or confront her. I just marched straight to the apartment, my entire body vibrating.None of the guys were around to have come to separate the fight. Everyone was at Taylor's party and I had seen this as a perfect opportunity to hit Jaxon hard.The door swung open before I even finished pounding and there she was, Hazel. My Hazel wearing his hoodie.My chest twisted in ways I didn’t even know were possible.“You!” I spat, my voice sharp. “You sleep in his bed now? You can’t even pretend to have dignity?”Her eyes widened, shimmering with tears that I hated myself

  • Faking it with the Hockey Bad Boy   Chapter 54: Mr. Carter

    Jaxon's POV The phone rang at the worst possible moment.I was leaning against the edge of the bed, my notebook open, Hazel sitting cross-legged beside me with her glasses slipping down her nose as she reread a paragraph aloud. Her voice was calm, and steady. For the first time in days, my head didn’t feel like it was splitting in two between ice drills and essay deadlines.Then my phone lit up, the sound alone was sharp, slicing through the quiet room. Hazel stopped mid-sentence.I didn’t look at the screen at first. Then my phone buzzed again, insistent. I swallowed and finally glanced down.It was Mr. CarterHazel’s eyes flicked to my face. I quickly got up, nearly knocking the chair over.“I...I need to take this,” I muttered.Then I stepped into the narrow hallway and answered.“What,” I said. I didn't bother with any pleasantries.His voice came through the speaker, smooth and cold, like it always did. “So you finally picked up,” he said. “I was starting to think you’d forgott

  • Faking it with the Hockey Bad Boy   Chapter 53: Pressure Lines

    Jaxon’s POVI’m staring at my one of my literature study text like it personally offended me.The damn thing is open on the kitchen counter, its pages marked with Hazel’s neat handwriting with tabs sticking out as reminders for everything I was yet to fully comprehend. Metaphor, symbolism and all these jargons shouldn’t have this much power over my future.I rub my face and exhale hard.If I fail this midterm, I am benched and that's the end for everything I have fought hard for.“You gonna glare holes into that book or actually read it?”Johnson’s voice drifts in from the couch. He was cuddled up with his flavour of the week—a lingo we used to describe a new catch because Johnson has a new girl for the new week. Thinking about how I was once in that league made me laugh.“I am reading,” I shot back, not looking up.Marcus snorted from the corner of the dinning where he was having his dinner. “You’ve been on the same page for over thirty minutes.”“Because it’s ridiculous,” I mutter.

  • Faking it with the Hockey Bad Boy   Chapter 52: More than Partnership

    Hazel's POVNothing travels as fast as rumour, ever since the investigation into the jacket theft had been made public. Everyone suddenly remembered I existed again, all thanks to Tiffany and her squad.Some believed me, while others didn't but what exhausted me the most was that I couldn’t even breathe without feeling like someone was scanning my face for guilt everywhere I turned on campus.It was pretty easy for everyone to believe Tiffany since I was dating their favourite hockey captain, I badly wanted to fit in that's why I stole a cheer jacket. I wish I could just go back to the old me where no on bothered about my existence but I guess that's too late now.I kept my head down as I left my morning class, gripping my books so tightly my knuckles hurt. I told myself I didn’t care. I told myself I was fine.Until I bumped into Sasha.My supposed roommate and friend —well, former friend at this point—standing beside the cafeteria entrance with two girls from our psych class. She sp

  • Faking it with the Hockey Bad Boy   Chapter 51: No distance

    Jaxon’s POV Hazel was exactly where I hoped she’d be, curled up on the stone bench outside the library, her eyes glued on a textbook but I could tell she was just using it as a distraction to shield her from the chaos around her. Even from a distance, I could see the shadows under her eyes. When she looked up and saw me walking toward her, the relief in her face made my heart kick. She jumped up. “Jaxon, did… did Coach say something? Did you see Mr. Rivers? What happened?” I could feel the anticipation in her voice and I was happy, I was able to get a positive feedback else it would have broken me badly. I stepped closer and took her hand gently, taking a deep breathe trying to shake off all of the toxicity that had come from being inside Mr. Rivers office. “It’s done, you can stay officially.” Her lips parted and her eyes grew wide. “You… you got approval?” “Yeah.” I shrugged lightly, pretending it hadn’t taken every ounce of restraint I had to face those cold people “Your dad

  • Faking it with the Hockey Bad Boy   Chapter 50: Stubborn and Reckless

    Jaxon’s POVIf there was one thing I hated more than losing a match, it was watching Hazel get torn apart by something she didn't do all because of a spoilt princess does like her.Before we faced the Dean for hearing, I overheard Tiffany bragging to her gang about how she is got everything sorted because her dad was a major donor to our college. So the outcome of the interrogation was not a surprise to me.Regardless, I still have to sort out Hazel's stay in the apartment while waiting to get her name cleared.Standing now outside Mr. Rivers’ office, trying to convince myself this wasn’t a futile mission. I ran a hand through my hair, took a deep breath, and knocked on his door.“Come in,” came the deep voice from inside.When I stepped in, Trey was already there, sitting there in one of the couch, his arms folded like he owned the place. His jaw clenched the second he saw me.“Captain Carter, to what do I owe this visit?” Mr. Rivers called out“I need your approval,” I said, forcing
