From my Bully to CEO Chapter 99
PresentGrayson's POV I stared at the bright hallway outside, then back at her, staring at me with a look I couldn't decipher. Like there were things she wanted to say but knew that those words would never reach me, could never touch me, could never break past the wall I had around myself.She was asking me to leave. And doing so might've been the better option, the safer option.But didn’t I decide to want something for myself just now?“I like you, okay?” I said, the words tearing past my throat. She turned slowly, eyes wide, like she couldn't believe what she was hearing.I noticed the way her fingers flexed against the edge of the door, her knuckles turning white.“Grayson,” she said slowly, walking towards me like with murder in her eyes. “It's not fucking news to me, you know that, right?”I blinked.“Just because you're blind enough to not even see your own emotions doesn't mean everyone around you is too.”I took a step towards her. “Okay, smart ass,” I said softly. “Did

PASTGRAYSON'S POV:I knocked once.It sounded louder than it should have, like it echoed down the hallway and rattled my ribs like a gunshot. I looked around, afraid that Maya might’ve heard and would come out to investigate.The hallway stayed quiet.I exhaled, clenching and unclenching my fists as I stared at Selene’s door like I could force it open through sheer will.Every instinct screamed at me to turn around, to walk away, to pretend I had never come up here in the first place. It was a terrible idea. I didn’t get to just show up at her door anymore. I had forfeited that right a long time ago.A long, excruciating second passed. Then another.Maybe she went to bed. Maybe this was my sign. I had barely taken a step when the door creaked open.Selene stood on the other side, framed against the darkness. Her hair was loose, eyes sharp and wide like she hadn’t slept at all. She wore soft cotton pajamas and the sight of her knocked the breath straight out of my lungs.For a split

PASTGRAYSON’S POV:Theo walked into the kitchen and I looked up. Whatever he saw on my face alerted him.“Grayson?” He called, striding towards me. “You okay?”I blinked. “Yeah, I'm fine,” I said, straightening up.“Couldn't do it, huh?” I asked. His eyes narrowed.“You were listening in on our conversation?” He asked.“I tried not to,” I shrugged. “You weren’t exactly quiet.”He exhaled, taking the beer bottle from me and taking a small sip. “So fucking stupid.”“Reed, you better tell her before it gets too late. Before she leaves for college and you never get the chance again.”He stared at me a beat too long. “Where is this coming from?”I shrugged. “Just the truth.”“Are you going to take your own advice, then?” He asked, a knowing look on his face that made me bristle.“What do you mean?” I asked.“I mean,” he said slowly, “are you going to tell Selene too?”The breath rushed out of my lungs as I stared at him, stunned.“What…” I said, then paused. “How do you…”He cut me off.
From my Bully to CEO CHAPTER 96
PASTGRAYSON'S POV:Decathlon morning arrived far too quickly and despite doing this for the last four years, I felt way too nervous.We arrived at the venue earlier than we were supposed to and now we were all lined up in the hallway outside the auditorium, blazers pressed meticulously, calculators and notecards clutched like lifelines. Theo clapped his hands together once, sharp and loud, instantly commanding attention.I braced myself.“Alright,” he announced, stepping into the center. “Gather up, geniuses.”A collective groan rippled through the group, but we did as told. We always did.Next to me, I glimpsed Maya turn to Selene and whisper, “He does this every single year. Somehow it never stops being weirdly motivating.”“Today,” Theo began dramatically, “is not just any day. Today is the day we defend our legacy.”“We are Crescent High’s reigning champions. Five years. Five consecutive wins.” he continued, pacing in front of us. He held up his hand, fingers splayed for emphasi

PASTSELENE'S POV:My exhausted and half-asleep brain barely registered the door opening.I only noticed the shadowy figure when it stepped inside my room, the induced darkness of midday making everything look all the more sinister.I immediately sat upright, my heart in my throat.For one stupid second, I thought the figure might be Grayson. I thought of a million ways I could've humiliated him, and asked him to leave me alone.Worse than that, though, I thought about how it would feel to kiss him again.I wondered if silence like this might give him the courage to be real, to show me the parts he kept buried.“You up?” Maya's voice called and my soaring hopes crashed to the ground.“Yes,” I replied, my voice groggy. “Everything okay?”She made an incoherent sound that told me it was anything but.I scooted to the edge of the bed, patting the empty space beside me.She crawled in after only a moment's hesitation.“I thought you'd be the first one out,” I said, considering she was the

PASTSELENE'S POV:“Don’t forget to take your medicines,” I called, snatching my charger off the table and cramming it into my already overstuffed backpack.“I won’t,” my grandmother said. “Did you pack your brush?”I dug through the chaos I’d dumped into my bag until my fingers closed around the handle of a hairbrush.“Got it,” I yelled back, just as a car horn blared outside. “Shit, they’re here.”“Phone, house keys, Bluetooth, charger,” my grandma recited, ticking each item off from memory.“All of it,” I said, hoisting the bag onto my shoulders. “Okay. I think I’ve got everything.”“Good luck with the decathlon,” my grandmother said, fussing with my hair. “You'll be wonderful.”Over the past few months, I slowly worked through the resentment I once carried towards her. It happened so quietly, through shared silences and winter nights spent staring at the stars through the top of the line telescope setup she gifted me when she remembered my birthday a day later.I didn’t even noti

PAST SELENE’S POV:Zoey picked up my call on the second ring. My world could be falling apart but I knew I could always count on her to always be meticulously consistent.“Oh, my God, finally!” Zoey exclaimed, her face popping onto my screen. Her dark almond eyes shone with mischief, her dark hair

PRESENTSELENE’S POV:I hadn’t even read past the headline of today’s news when my phone rang, frighteningly loud in the still asleep house.I didn’t have to read the name to know who it must be.I smiled, picking up the call and Maya’s voice rang in the previous silence, still the same from those
