RIVAL'S TO LOVER'S: My Step Brother Is Now My Roommate Chapter 94: Stop Acting Like We Are Dating.
STEPHEN’S POVLosing didn’t sit right with me. It wasn’t just the scoreline or the way the final whistle had cut through the field like a blade, ending any chance of fixing what went wrong. It was everything that came before it, the hesitation, the missed opportunities, the tension that had been building long before we even stepped onto the pitch.I exhaled slowly, dragging a hand through my hair as I stood just off the field, the noise of the crowd fading into something distant and unimportant. Around me, people were still talking—teammates replaying moments, the coach giving sharp feedback—but I barely registered any of it.“Stephen.”I turned at the sound of my name.It was the scouts. There were three of them, standing a few feet away, watching me with an intensity that made it clear this wasn’t casual. One of them stepped forward slightly, offering a polite but measured smile.“You played well today.”I nodded once. “Not well enough.”“That’s not how we see it,” another one said.
RIVAL'S TO LOVER'S: My Step Brother Is Now My Roommate Chapter 93: Kiss Shifting
HAYDEN’S POV:I don’t know how long I stood there after I stopped hitting the tree.My chest was still heaving, knuckles throbbing, the sting of it grounding me just enough to keep everything else from spilling over again. The forest was quiet, too quiet and it only made the noise in my head louder.The missed pass, the goal, the look on the coach’s face.Stephen.I swore under my breath, dragging my hand down my face.“Hayden!” The sound of my name cut through everything.I stiffened, turning slightly just as Ariana came into view, pushing through the trees like she’d been running. Her hair was a mess, her breathing uneven, and there was something frantic in the way her eyes locked onto me.“What are you doing out here?” she demanded, closing the distance quickly.I let out a dry laugh, shaking my head. “Taking a walk. What does it look like?”“It looks like you’re losing it,” she shot back, her gaze dropping briefly to my hand. Her expression tightened. “Did you seriously punch a tr
RIVAL'S TO LOVER'S: My Step Brother Is Now My Roommate Chapter 92: Something Hot Twisted
HAYDEN’S POV: The whistle blew, and everything narrowed.The field, the ball, and the movement of bodies around me.For a while, it worked.Muscle memory kicked in, instincts taking over the way they always had. I ran, I passed, I pushed forward, forcing myself into the rhythm of the game like it was the only thing that existed.It should’ve been enough. It used to be enough but today… It wasn’t.Because no matter how hard I tried to lock in, there was something off. A split-second delay in my reactions. A flicker of hesitation where there shouldn’t be any.And worse—him.I didn’t need to look to know where he was. I could feel it. Every shift, every movement across the pitch, it was like my body tracked him without permission.It pissed me off.“Hayden, move!” a teammate shouted.I snapped back, darting forward just in time to intercept a pass, my cleats digging into the grass as I turned sharply, pushing the ball ahead.Good. That was good.I surged forward, adrenaline finally kick
RIVAL'S TO LOVER'S: My Step Brother Is Now My Roommate Chapter 91: Some Fucked Up Instinct
HAYDEN’S POV:I shouldn’t still be thinking about it. That was the first thing I told myself when I woke up. The second thing was that it didn’t matter.Neither of those things stuck.Because two days later, it was still there—sitting under my skin like something sharp I couldn’t dig out. The hallway, Stephen’s voice, the way he looked at me like he could see straight through everything I was trying to bury.You’re not okay.I scoffed under my breath, dragging a hand over my face as I sat up in bed.Yeah. No shit.The problem was… I didn’t want him to know that.I didn't want anyone to know that.So I did what I always do…..I shoved it down, buried it under noise, distractions, and anything that would keep me from thinking too hard.But it wasn’t working the same anymore.I swung my legs off the bed and stood, grabbing the jersey tossed over the chair. It was match day. That was all that mattered today. Not Stephen or the stupid tension hanging between us. It was not the way my chest
RIVAL'S TO LOVER'S: My Step Brother Is Now My Roommate Chapter 90: The Clash Between Them
STEPHEN’S POVI knew before I even saw him.It was the noise. It was not loud like the parties he had been throwing himself into lately but the kind of careless sound that didn’t belong in this dorm at this hour. His laughter and a girl’s voice.My chest tightened anyway.I stayed where I was for a second longer, sitting on the edge of my bed, staring at nothing while the sound carried faintly through the hall. I didn’t need to guess what it meant.Hayden was back and I was sure he wasn’t alone.I exhaled slowly, dragging a hand over my face, trying to push down the sharp, unwanted reaction clawing its way up my throat. It shouldn’t matter. It doesn’t matter.We’ve been avoiding each other for weeks now.Avoiding conversations and eye contact. Avoiding… everything but avoiding someone doesn’t mean you stop noticing them.Especially not when everyone else won’t shut up about it.Hayden this. Hayden that.He is out every night. He doesn’t give a shit anymore. He is going through girls l
RIVAL'S TO LOVER'S: My Step Brother Is Now My Roommate Chapter 89: Tutor Me
HAYDEN’S POV:Coach didn’t call players over after practice unless something goes wrong.So the second I heard, “Hayden. Stay back a minute,” I already knew this isn’t about my performance on the field.Because that part? I’m still killing it.I drag a hand over the back of my neck, sweat cooling against my skin as the rest of the team jogs off. My chest is still heaving from drills, adrenaline not quite gone yet—but there’s something heavier sitting underneath it.Coach watches me approach, arms crossed, expression tight.Yeah, it's definitely not about soccer.“What’s up?” I ask, keeping my tone casual, like I don’t already feel the tension creeping in.He didn’t answer right away. He just studies me for a second, like he’s deciding how much patience he has left.“Your grades,” he says finally.There it is.I exhale through my nose, glancing away. “I’m handling it.”“No,” he cuts in sharply. “You’re not.”My jaw tightens. “I’ve had two professors email me this week,” he continues.
RIVAL'S TO LOVER'S: My Step Brother Is Now My Roommate Chapter 8: Pounding Regrets
ELLA’S POVI shouldn’t have come here.The cheerleader field was loud with whistles and laughter, girls stretching, practicing lifts, pretending their lives were uncomplicated. The sun was too bright and my head was pounding. My mouth still tasted like regret.And there she was.Lilian stood near t

STEPHEN’S POVI didn’t go back to my hostel right away. I sat on the steps outside the arts building instead, elbows on my knees as I stared at space. My phone buzzed twice in my pocket. It was probably Hayden, or not, but I ignored it. My chest still felt badly injured from Ella’s words and the w

STEPHEN’S POVI didn’t remember deciding to leave.One second I was standing in the hallway, Hayden’s door still vibrating from where it had slammed shut, my chest tight and buzzing like I’d swallowed broken glass. The next, I was outside, the night air hitting my face like a slap.I deserved worse

HAYDEN’S POVI regretted coming back the second I opened the door.Stephen was in the living room, kissing some guy like he owned the place. Hands on his waist, his lips curved into a smile like nothing in the world had ever touched him wrong.I felt my stomach twist.I turned away immediately. “F
