Tara’s POV

I was having the most incredible dream. I was cuddled up with this gorgeous guy, and everything felt so warm and perfect. Without thinking, I shifted closer, letting my thigh slide over his bare lap as I rested my head against his chest. His skin was so warm, and I could hear his heartbeat beneath my ear.

This had to be a dream. Things like this didn't happen to me in real life.

But slowly, I started to feel more awake. My head was pounding, and my mouth felt like cotton. The warmth beneath my cheek was too real, too solid. I could smell cologne and something else that was distinctly masculine.

My eyes fluttered open, and I found myself staring at a very real chest. A very familiar chest.

"Oh my God," I gasped, jerking my head up.

Jasper's face was inches from mine, his eyes still closed, breathing steadily. This wasn't a dream. This was real. I was actually in bed with Jasper Williams, and I was wearing nothing but an oversized t-shirt that definitely wasn't mine.

  • My Bullies Are Twin Hockey Players   Chapter 36: Confrontations

    Tara's POVThe next morning, I woke up with the memory of last night still replaying in my head like a broken record. Each time I remembered pushing the twins away, I felt a stab of satisfaction. But then I'd remember the hurt look on my mum's face when I told her to use the twins as her children, and my stomach would twist with guilt.I hated that I had talked to my mum like that. The words had come out harsher than I'd intended, but what I hated even more was that she believed the twins' fake care. The way they had just sat there watching me choke, their faces blank with indifference, only springing into action when they heard her footsteps, it made my blood boil every time I thought about it.I got ready for school mechanically, each movement feeling heavy w

  • My Bullies Are Twin Hockey Players   Chapter 34: The Invitation

    Xavier's POVI couldn't help myself. All my attention was focused on Tara as the teacher droned on about some historical event I couldn't care less about. She was sitting just a few rows ahead, occasionally touching the flowers on her desk and smiling to herself. Every time she did it, I felt this weird flutter in my chest.She kept pulling out that letter and reading it again, her cheeks turning pink each time. I knew every word of that letter by heart since I'd written it, but watching her react to it over and over again was intoxicating. I mean, it's been two days now, and she still has the letter and the flower? It sounds crazy, but appealing in some ways.The way her eyes lit up, the way she bit her lower lip when she smiled, it was lik

    Tara's POVI was downstairs, fully dressed and ready for school, when Mom called out from the kitchen."Tara, honey, go call the twins for breakfast," she said, not looking up from the eggs she was scrambling.I stopped in my tracks, my backpack halfway onto my shoulder. "Why can't you go yourself?" I asked, trying to keep the irritation out of my voice.Mom turned to face me, her eyebrows raised. "Excuse me? Where did you keep your manners, young lady?"I felt my jaw clench. The last thing I wanted to do was go knock on their door and deal with their smug faces first thing in the morning. "Mom, I really don't want to….” "Tara," she said in that tone that meant the discussion was over. "Go call them. Now."I let out an angry sigh and stomped toward the stairs. "Fine," I muttered under my breath.I was already annoyed as I climbed the stairs, thinking about how I'd have to see their stupid faces and probably deal with some snarky comments. When I reached their door, I was so frustrat

    Xavier's POVI couldn't stop smiling to myself as I replayed Tara's expression from class earlier. The way her face had lit up when she saw the flowers, the way she'd clutched that letter to her chest like it was the most precious thing in the world, it was almost too perfect. She had no idea that her "secret admirer" was sitting just a few desks away, watching her every reaction."Dude, you need to stop grinning like that," Jasper said, flopping down on the bed and staring at me with concern. "You look like you're going crazy. What's gotten into you lately?"I quickly wiped the smile off my face, realizing I'd been lost in thought again. "Nothing, just... thinking about something funny."
