~RHEA~My suitcase was sitting beside the door, zipped and ready to go.I stared at it for a moment, wondering how I had managed to fit everything I needed into two suitcases and a handbag. It felt strange knowing I would be leaving this room behind. I had only been here for a short while, but somehow, it had become a place where I could breathe without constantly looking over my shoulder.I would miss it.I would miss the quiet mornings, the familiar view from the window, and the little things that had made this house feel like home. But I couldn’t stay here forever. Eventually, I had to return to campus, face everyone and stop allowing fear to make decisions for me.Besides, Zander was coming with me and that made everything a little easier.He stood behind me, buttoning the sleeves of his shirt. He had brought a change of clothes with him, thankfully, so he didn’t have to travel in the same outfit he’d arrived in. I had teased him about how prepared he was, but he had simply shrugg

~HEATHER~I barely remembered running down the stairs.One moment, I was standing in my room with my phone pressed against my ear, listening to Mason tell me he was outside. The next, I was rushing through the front door, my heart beating so fast I almost missed the last step.And there he was.Mason stood beside his car, his hands tucked into the pockets of his jacket. The moment his eyes found mine, he straightened, and I didn’t give him the chance to say anything before I ran straight into his arms.He caught me easily, wrapping both arms around my waist as I buried my face against his chest. I hadn’t realised just how much I had missed him until I was standing there, holding him again. His familiar scent, the warmth of his body, and the steady beat of his heart made me want to stay exactly where I was.A few tears slipped down my cheeks before I could stop them.“Why didn’t you tell me you were coming?” I asked, my voice muffled against his jacket.Mason rested his chin against m

~RHEA~I couldn’t remember the last time I had laughed this much.Actually, I couldn’t remember the last time I had felt this happy without worrying about what would happen afterwards. Spending the day with Zander had been everything I didn’t know I needed. He had taken my hand, made me laugh, stolen my food, and somehow managed to turn every ordinary moment into something special.And I wasn’t ready for the day to end.“You’re awfully quiet over there, Ladybug.”I turned towards him, finding him watching me with an amused smile.“I’m enjoying the view.”He raised an eyebrow. “The view?”I nodded, looking pointedly at him. “It’s not every day I get to sit beside someone this handsome.”“Finally, some appreciation.”I burst into laughter, and he reached across the centre console to squeeze my thigh.“Keep talking like that and I’ll start thinking you’re obsessed with me.”“Don’t flatter yourself.”“Too late. I already have.”After spending some time at the park, I glanced at Zander, wh

~HEATHER~“Goodnight, Mum.”I turned towards the stairs before she could ask another question, but apparently, I wasn’t moving fast enough.“Heather, wait.”I sighed. “Please, can we not do this?”“Do what?”“Talk about boys. I don’t want to talk about boys with you.”I continued upstairs, hoping she would take the hint, but I heard her footsteps behind me.“Heather, we hardly ever talk about these things.”“Exactly. So let’s not start now.”I reached my bedroom and pushed the door open, but she followed me inside before I could close it.“Sweetheart, I’m only asking because I’m interested in your life. Is that such a terrible thing?”I dropped my phone on the bed and turned to face her. “Mum, I’m tired. Can we please talk about something else?”She studied my face for a moment before her expression softened.“Do you know what I just realised?” she asked. “You came into town, and I didn’t even know. You were staying in this house, and I had no idea until today. We barely talk anymore,

~RHEA~Zander had barely driven for ten minutes before I started giving him directions.“Turn left at the next junction.”He glanced at me. “Are you sure?”“Yes.”“You said that five minutes ago, and we ended up in front of a bakery.”“Because you missed the turning.”“I didn’t miss anything. You were too busy eating the pastry you bought to notice we were going the wrong way.”I gasped. “I was giving you directions!”“You were giving me directions with your mouth full.”I laughed, reaching over to give his arm a playful slap. He caught my hand and brought it to his lips, pressing a kiss against my knuckles before returning his attention to the road.“You’re very distracting, Ladybug.”“Then perhaps you shouldn’t have offered to drive.”“And miss spending the day with my favourite girl? Never.”I rolled my eyes, but I couldn’t stop smiling.It felt good being with him like this. No arguments, no secrets hanging between us, no pretending we didn’t miss each other. Just the two of us, d

~HEATHER~The moment the front door closed behind Rhea and Zander, my smile disappeared.I let out a long sigh and leaned against the wall, watching the door for a few seconds before pulling out my phone.I had messages waiting for me.Kai had sent several, asking how I was doing, whether I had eaten, and if I needed anything. There was even a message telling me to call him whenever I felt like talking.Mason, on the other hand, had barely said anything.I scrolled through our conversation, reading his last few messages again. They weren’t particularly cold, but they weren’t exactly reassuring either.The person I wanted to worry about me the most didn’t seem particularly worried at all.And yes, I knew Mason wasn’t my boyfriend. I had no right to expect him to act like one, but that didn’t stop me from wondering why he hadn’t come with Zander. If he cared about me as much as he claimed, wouldn’t he have wanted to see me?I locked my phone and ran my fingers through my hair.God, I wa

~ZANDER~ Something was seriously wrong with me.Because for the last twenty minutes, all I could think about was a girl in a stupid Ladybug shirt.It made no fucking sense.Girls like her were exactly the kind I stayed away from, the ones that were too bright, too innocent looking and too soft.

~RHEA~ I wanted to look away but I couldn't.My eyes stayed locked on Zander Cole as if they had forgotten how to function properly.Water still clung to his skin, sliding down the sharp lines and tattoos on his chest before disappearing beneath the towel hanging dangerously low on his hips. Ever

~RHEA~ I had blacked out from that day.The last thing I remembered after running out of the stadium was calling my dad while hysterically crying.It wasn't the silent tears I had grown accustomed to, it was ugly and bitter. The kind that clawed its way out my chest until breathing itself hurt.

~RHEA~ “You know how much I want you, Rhea. You know how much I want to fuck you” Chase murmured as he pressed me up against the wall, sliding his fingers down my thigh.“Tell me what you want” He whispered into my ear and my heart slammed rationally against my ribcage as I stared up at him.“I
