Sera's POV

I had cleaned the entire apartment while waiting for Ethan to arrive.

Damien wasn't home either. Who was I supposed to meet first?

I paced around the living room, occasionally glancing at the door, until the doorbell finally rang.

I hurried over and flung it open.

I stopped when I saw Ethan standing outside instead.

He glanced around the apartment.

"Are you expecting someone else?" he asked.

My eyes fell on the plastic bags in his hands.

"No. Come in."

I stepped aside to let hi

    The ballet competition was approaching and the final rehearsal was happening.I got dressed in loose clothes and headed out. Damien was just coming out of his apartment tooWe stared at each other or a second“What are you looking at?” I asked “At least dress with a little bit of sense in it” he stated before leaving.“Before the elevator door closed, I yelled “How I dress is none of your business!".I went back into my apartment, mood ruined already. Then, I caught my reflection, compared it to how pretty other girls looked.Ugh!!!I changed to better clothes, still no match but i had to go to the academy either ways.I walked through the gates of the academy and a black car drove pass.It hadn't gone far when it stopped.The window went down then a lady peeped out"Sera" A woman waved me over.Devin's mum."Oh, Mrs. Will" I walked over to her"Come in, you don't look fine" She pushed the door open.Because of how close or families were, I had no choice but to get in."I haven't se

Before closing the door, I glanced outside one more time.Even his motorcycle wasn't there.Ethan wandered around the apartment for a while before returning to the living room, already digging into the food he'd brought."Did you spend all your feeding money getting this apartment?" he asked.Technically, yes."Not really," I replied, my mouth already stuffed with food.He took a seat on the couch, his attention fixed on his phone."Have you said hello to your neighbours?"I paused."Yeah,

    Sera's POV: The academy's social page didn't go quiet immediately. They kept talking about Damien and I. "What the hell? Damien isn't even dating her" "They're going against the rules" Another said. Well not anymore! I stared at my reflection, already dressed up then I stepped out. Just as I turned to leave, I almost bumped into Damien who had been waiting there for God knows how long. Remembering what I did yesterday, I wasn't ready to meet him. I stepped aside about to walk away then — "Stop" He said. Like magic, my feet hit pause. "What do you want?" I asked, somewhat rude. He tilted his head, with a faint smile tugging at his lips "That's too rude for the girl who was begging me desperately to date her yesterday" He said. Offended, I faced him "Begged you?" Okay, maybe I did but, begged you?! I scoffed "What do you want, dear Damien" I said, forcing a little bit of politeness. He crossed his arms around his chest "Just because I agreed to fake date you doesn'

    SERA'S POV. The next morning, the academy had contacted me to be there as soon as possible. According to the news, Anna's parents were going to be there too. They didn't say anything about bringing parents, what do they take me for? An orphan? I got dressed in regular clothes— a shirt and a pair of jeans. After clicking the door shut, I walked towards the elevator and headed down the apartment building. The revving engine of Damien's motorcycle almost took my soul out of me. He glanced at me before putting on his helmet. "Good morning" I raised my face, barely. He said nothing and just zoomed off. I watched him ride till he was out of sight then my eyes caught an object on the ground where he had just left. A card. I picked it up and saw that it was his apartment key card. "Careless huh?". I arrived at the academy, not long after, the students started exchanging glances as I made my way to the counsel room. Before I stepped in, I took in a deep breath then pushed the do

  • The Captain I Shouldn't Want   Chapter 5

    SERA'S POV. I got back to the apartment about to go in when the door next door clicked open from inside. I didn't look towards him and just tried to open mine. The keys kept fumbling in my hands till it fell. I felt my face burn from embarrassment. I tried to crouch down to get the keys, buying him enough time to at least help a woman in need. He was no longer there. What? He's so unreal for his attitude. "Can't even help a struggling schoolmate?" I muttered before going into the house. Mum had sent several texts : did you move already? :why aren't you picking up my calls And many others. I sighed while I chewed in frustration. Then, I glanced at my injured leg and ankle. Anna, she must've felt threatened when I mentioned the center stage. It's only a few weeks away and my recovery would take those weeks. She played well, doesn't mean I'll sit back. The center stage might not work but something else will. What's she so afraid of losing? After my meal, I was too
