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.

    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 88: The Move For Solution

    HAYDEN’S POV:Weeks passed and somehow… everything got worse.At first, I told myself it was just a phase…..a rough patch with a couple of bad nights that would fade if I drowned them out hard enough.So I did exactly that.I drank more, smoked more, and partied so fucking hard.I did everything to keep my head loud enough so I wouldn’t have to hear his voice in it because that’s the real problem.It was not the kiss, the way he held me during sex, or the fight.It was Stephen himself. He was everywhere, even when he was not.The music in the club pounded so hard it felt like it was shaking my bones.Bodies press in from every direction, heat and sweat and flashing lights. Someone hands me another drink—I don’t even know who—and I take it without thinking.That’s how it’s been lately. I did not think. I just acted on impulse. Just… anything.A girl leans into me, laughing at something I didn’t say. Her hand slides up my chest, nails dragging lightly, her eyes already looking at me li

  • RIVAL'S TO LOVER'S: My Step Brother Is Now My Roommate    Chapter 87: The Laughter Faded

    STEPHEN’S POV:I didn’t sleep, not even for a second.At first, it was just noise like muffled laughter, the creak of the door, the low murmur of voices drifting down the hallway. I’d rolled over in bed, pressing my face into the pillow, telling myself to ignore it.Hayden bringing a girl back wasn’t new.It shouldn’t have mattered but then the sounds changed.The laughter faded into something else. The kind of sounds you couldn’t mistake, no matter how hard you tried.My jaw tightened as I stared into the darkness of my room, every muscle in my body going rigid.No.I squeezed my eyes shut, dragging the blanket higher over my shoulder like it could block it out.It didn’t. It only got louder.A low groan, the creak of the couch. A breathless voice that wasn’t his and then his voice, rough and unrestrained in a way I’d never heard before.Something twisted hard in my chest.I turned onto my back, staring up at the ceiling now, my pulse pounding in my ears.This was normal. This was wh

  • RIVAL'S TO LOVER'S: My Step Brother Is Now My Roommate    Chapter 86: Yes Daddy

    HAYDEN’S POV:I didn’t recognize myself.That’s the first thought that keeps looping in my head, over and over again like a broken record I I'mcan’t shut off.I didn’t recognize myself.Because there is no version of me, none, that does what I did last night. My hands grip the edge of the sink as I stare at my reflection, jaw tight, eyes bloodshot from lack of sleep. The room feels too small and quiet, like it’s closing in on me, pressing in from all sides.I kissed him. No. I did worse than that.“Fuck!” I mutter under my breath, dragging a hand down my face.This isn’t me.I straighten slowly, forcing myself to look at my reflection again, as if staring long enough, I’ll find something familiar staring back.“I’m straight,” I say under my breath. The words feel solid and grounding. “I’ve always been straight.”And that’s the truth. It has to be. There’s no confusion there or a gray area.So whatever the hell happened last night? It was a mistake.Just like I said.It was the fuckin

    HAYDEN’S POVBy the time i stepped onto campus the next morning, I already knew something had happened.You could feel it in the air.The way conversations cut off when i walked past. The way heads leaned together, whispers were heard when i walked by. A couple of freshmen actually turned to look a

    HAYDEN’S POV The morning came with all sorts of insults. The house was quiet as if it knew what had happened last night and was waiting for me to react. I lay there for a while staring at the ceiling, my jaw tight and replaying everything I didn't want to remember. I heard some footsteps in the

The bleachers were packed with students, athletes, and even a few teachers pretending they weren’t invested. Someone had hung handmade signs over the railings. Half of them rea

I straightened, folding my arms. “You think this ends with a little competition for captain?”She didn’t answer.“I’ve been captain for two years,” I continued. “I built this team’s reputation. I made it what it is.”“And you think that gives you the righ
