The Captain's Scandalous Roommate

YUNAThe tiny velvet box in my hand had cost me two months of tips. It was ridiculous. I couldn't afford it, but Ethan Howard was worth every skipped meal.I smiled as my thumb brushed over the silver watch nestled inside."Ethan Howard," I giggled. "You'd better cry."We were two years old today.Two years of late-night study sessions, surprise roses, stolen kisses after hockey practices, and whispered promises about forever.He'd texted me an hour ago."MEET ME AT THE ARENA, I HAVE A SURPRISE FOR YOU."Knowing him, he'd probably planned something cheesy. But no matter how cheesy it is, it would be made with love, which makes everything better.The Wolveridge Knights ice arena was surprisingly quiet when I arrived. No single soul was around.Ethan Howard was my boyfriend of two years, who happens to love hockey and is the best friend of his team's captain.I walked through the familiar hallway and smiled politely at the receptionist."Ethan is still inside?" I asked, and she nodded.

It was only a matter of time before my family did too.I closed my eyes, took a deep breath, and swiped the icon.“Did you not want to pick up the call before, Yuna Reed?” Dad barked over the phone.“I've been busy,” I muttered under my breath.

Really?A humorless laugh escaped my lips.“Who told you that we fought?” I asked calmly, my fingers tightened over the strap of my bag.“Ana called us crying!” Mom snapped. “ She said you slapped her and caused a scene at the arena. Why should you be fighting with your younger sister and even lying on her name? What is wrong with you? You are supposed to protect her!” I swallowed the thick knot that had formed like a rock

5YUNAIt's been two days since I caught my sister with my boyfriend, yet it feels like it was a moment ago.I hadn't set foot into the apartment; instead, I had been staying at Emma's since then. If the occasional shutting of my eyes counted as sleep.Every time I closed them, I saw Ethan and Ana in a promiscuous position, their voices echoing through my head until I was forced to peel my eyes open.And in the far corner, I'd see Gavin West.My lips tingled at the memory I had been struggling to bury.God. Why did I kiss him?I groaned loudly and buried my face in the throw pillow lying on the couch.“Still alive?” Emma's voice floated from the tiny kitchen.“Barely,” I mumbled and sighed. “I'm dying of embarrassment.” She laughed as she walked through the kitchen door. “I made pancakes.”“I'm too depressed to eat…” “ I also bought bacon.” She added before I could finish talking. “You'd better join me before I eat yours.”I dragged my hands down my face and groaned before dragging
