I stood up from where I was sitting and I had barely taken two steps toward the door when the knock came again.

It was not a soft, polite tap rather it was sharp and loud.

Three more sharp knocks came then a pause, then two more, like whoever it was had rehearsed a rhythm.

I frowned. Nobody I knew knocked like that.

Still chewing the last bit of leftover bagel, I padded over to the door, swallowing quickly before opening it.

And froze.

Standing in the hallway was definitely not who I’d expected.

On one side, Ms. Darla Finch, the dormitory supervisor—tall, mid-thirties, hair scraped back into the tightest bun you’d ever seen, posture like she’d been carved out of a ruler.

On the other side… was a girl.

And not just any girl.

She looked about my age but dressed like she had gotten lost on her way to an indie rock concert in 2007. Baggy plaid skirt, fishnet tights, combat boots with red laces, and an oversized hoodie with “Trust No Duck” printed across the front.

Her dark hair was piled

  • Skating With Hearts    Chapter 27 Ryans' Pov

    As we practiced, Coach Donovan’s whistle cut through the air one last time before he waved us over, sweat running down his temples as he did so. “Good hustle today,” he said, eyes scanning us. “Even you, Ryans. Guess that early exit yesterday didn’t ruin your stamina.”I rolled my eyes in response. Yeah, because sprinting halfway across campus to see a girl is apparently a cardio session now.Before I could even grab my water bottle, Ethan’s grin slid into my line of vision. He was relaxing himself on Liam’s shoulder while he scowled at me. “So,” he started, stretching the word like he was about to ask me how I feel about global politics. “How was your… urgent business yesterday?”I rolled my eyes again and took a swig from my bottle. “None of your business.”I meant that even though Skylar was his younger sister and as expected, he glared at me. “That’s what makes it fun to guess,” Liam chimed in, smirking as if he wanted to diffuse the situation. “Bet you were with Skylar.”Zayn

    I didn’t mean to fall asleep.One second I was hunched over my sketchpad, adding the last stroke of ink to a neckline, and the next, I was waking up with my cheek stuck to the paper and a faint cramp in my neck.The room was quiet except for the faint humming coming from June’s side of the dorm. I blinked, adjusting my eyes to the dim orange glow from her desk lamp. She was sitting cross-legged on her bed, completely engrossed in whatever… weird ritual she was doing. It involved a candle, a mug of tea, and her muttering something about "energetic realignment" under her breath. I’d stopped trying to figure her out hours ago.My phone lay face down beside my pillow. I picked it up and winced at the bright screen.I had six unread texts. And all of them from Ryan. Shit. I sighed as I scrolled through the screen with my thumb and read. Ryan: You at your dorm?Ryan: …Hellooo?Ryan: Guess you’re ignoring me.Ryan: Tragic.Ryan: Oh well, I’ll just assume you’re watching paint dry or someth

    The next day, I woke up to the soft hum of the heater and the faint smell of peach soda in the room. For a moment, my brain did that automatic morning checklist—it was Sunday and so I didn’t have class today. Also, my coffee was probably still in the fridge from yesterday—Shit!And then I rolled over as I groaned out loud. And I almost screamed at what I saw. June was lying on the bed across from mine, hair sticking up like she’d fought a small electrical storm, boots still on from last night, one arm draped dramatically over her forehead. She looked like the cover photo for a chaotic band album, except the band had been forcibly disbanded at 3 a.m.As I continued to stare at her with wide eyes and opened mouth while wondering what the hell someone like that was doing here, it all came rushing back—the knock on my door last night, Ms. Finch’s ruler posture and June then stepping into my space I had guarded diligently with her spoon in her hair like she’d lived here her whole life.

    I closed my dorm door behind me with a soft click and let my back press against it for a second.The quiet felt almost too loud after the slow burn of the afternoon and evening. My legs carried me toward the bathroom on autopilot, shedding my jacket and bag along the way. Steam soon curled up around me as I sank into a hot shower, letting the water slide over my shoulders, loosening the stubborn knots in my muscles. The scent of my vanilla soap filled the space, wrapping me up in something warm and familiar. I lingered longer than I should’ve, maybe because I didn’t really want to step back into reality. At least not yet. When I finally padded back into the room, my hair damp and hanging over one shoulder, I rummaged through the mini-fridge for the leftover bagel and scrambled eggs from the morning. Not glamorous, but still soft and buttery when I reheated them. The eggs had gone a little rubbery in the microwave, but the sharpness of the cheddar melted into them made up for it. I

  • Skating With Hearts    Chapter 22 Ryans' Pov

    Finding Tara wasn’t as simple as walking into a hallway and spotting her relaxing against a locker with her fake smile and overprocessed hair. If anything, the damn girl was like smoke—annoying, suffocating, and impossible to hold on to unless you trapped it in a room.Problem was, she wasn’t in any room I knew.I started with the usual spots: the quad where the cheer squad liked to parade themselves during breaks, the east wing corridor where the vending machines never worked but made a great spot to gossip, and the library—though I knew Tara’s relationship with books began and ended with looking at the covers for Instagram aesthetics.Nothing.The day had begun cooling down, shadows stretching longer across campus, but my temper wasn’t cooling with it. My jaw had been locked since I left Skylar’s dorm. The things I wanted to say to Tara weren’t polite, and the things I wanted to make her understand… well, they weren’t up for discussion.By the time I passed the athletics building,
