~Beatrix POV~

When you have expectations, you set yourself up for disappointment. As long as I had none about the way they treated me, I wouldn't feel disappointed or sad.

That was what I'd been telling myself.

Since movie night, the squad—all five of us—had barely spoken to one another. The tension was impossible to ignore. Cruz's schedule for the midterm study sessions was the only thing keeping us in the same room.

    ~Beatrix Pov~ The midterms were almost over, but the tension between us wasn't. If anything, it had gotten worse. Justin had stopped coming. Don't ask me why, because I didn't know. That meant Julia had stopped coming too. Penelope and Lily seemed to be enjoying the sessions with Cruz, while Kai barely spoke unless it had something to do with midterms. Neither did I. "That's all for today," I said, dropping my marker. It was our last day of sessions, and the girls clearly wanted to enjoy it because they'd barely paid attention. "I'd better get going," I murmured, packing up my things. "You're leaving already?" Cruz grumbled. Everyone's eyes turned towards me. "Yes. I have to file some student records." "Okay." I didn't give him a chance to say anything else. I was already out the door. I needed to drop some records at the student council office, and the moment I walked in, I wished I hadn't. "Hi," Julia said, looking me up and down. She didn't bother hiding wha

    ~Beatrix POV~ When you have expectations, you set yourself up for disappointment. As long as I had none about the way they treated me, I wouldn't feel disappointed or sad. That was what I'd been telling myself. Since movie night, the squad—all five of us—had barely spoken to one another. The tension was impossible to ignore. Cruz's schedule for the midterm study sessions was the only thing keeping us in the same room. Nobody spoke to anyone during class. I hadn't expected things to go back to normal overnight, but I hadn't expected them to become this awkward either. Even Cruz hadn't come over to talk to me. I'd gotten used to something I shouldn't have. And I had other things to worry about. The Angel of Haneul didn't like me. Then again, nobody actually liked me. But this was something I knew would make my life at Haneul much harder. Rin, Lily, Penelope, and I stood outside the study room. I took a deep breath before pushing the door open. Let's just pretend everythi

    ~Cruz Pov~ Either he didn't remember, or he was pretending not to. That was what I thought as my eyes followed Bryan around the classroom. Nothing the lecturer said stuck in my head. I couldn't concentrate on a single thing. Every now and then, I caught Bryan glancing in my direction. Was he seriously going to pretend nothing had happened? I should sue him for sexual assault. My gaze dropped to my notebook, and I frowned. I'd written Bryan's name across the page and crossed it out so many times that the paper was almost torn. He was really getting on my nerves. The bell rang, signalling the end of the lecture. I was just about to approach him when he quickly walked over to Justin instead. Seriously? "What's with you?" Kai asked, standing beside me. "Why are you frozen?" He nudged my shoulder before walking towards where Bryan and Justin were sitting. I picked up my bag and headed in the opposite direction. "Where are you going, Cruz?" I heard Kai call after

    ~Cruz POV~ *Six months at Hanuel* It was pretty much the same as high school. Get laid, get drunk, hang out with friends, party. Nothing ever really caught my interest. And a school like this was even more boring since I couldn't go out whenever I wanted. But then there was Bryan. The nerd The complete opposite of me. It had been six months since Kai and I started at Haneul, and it was no surprise we ended up in the same room. Our parents had probably made sure of that. We arrived a week after the semester began, and there was already a nerd named Bryan and a golden boy named Justin waiting for us. It was almost inevitable that we'd end up as some kind of friend group. What I didn't understand was why the nerd seemed to talk to everyone except me. Maybe it was because we had completely different personalities. Or maybe he just didn't like me. Whatever. There was something else that had been bugging me, though. Bryan barely showed any emotion. The guy could sit throu

    ~Beatrix Pov~ I should get up and find a way to hide this mess, but who was I kidding? My mind and my body had no strength left to move. Then the restroom door opened again and someone walked in. I kept staring at my stall door, and it swung open slightly. Rin came into view. "You staying in there isn't going to change anything," she said. The truth was, I'd never been able to read Rin. Right now, I couldn't tell if she was pleased to see me like this. But her face didn't show that. It showed worry instead. "What are you doing here?" My voice came out low. Water dripped from my hair, and I stank. My whole body stank. "I saw them going in after you." I dropped my head and looked down at my legs, at the puddle spreading around my shoes. "Do you need any help?" My head snapped back up. "Me?" She sighed. "Who else? It's only the two of us in here." "Right." I nodded slowly. "Why do you want to help me, though?" Rin raked a hand through her hair. "I don't know," she snapped. "J

  • The Dare For The Curvy Girl   Chapter Thirty - Seven

    ~Beatrix POV~ By the time the breakfast bell rang, the story had already beaten me to the dining hall. I knew it the second I walked in. Heads turned in a wave, and a second later turned back. A girl at the end of the table leaned toward her friend and said something behind her hand. A boy by the juice station whistled, low, and I couldn't tell if it was at me. I took the nearest empty seat and stared at my tray. "They're saying Justin tried to hit Kai over you." I flinched. Cruz was already beside me, sliding into the chair. He had a piece of toast in his hand and no smile, and that was how I knew things were bad. "He didn't try to hit him," I said. "I figured." Cruz kept his voice low. "But that's not the version going around. In that one, you cried, Kai begged, and Justin dragged you out by the arm." "Justin didn't drag me anywhere. He just followed me, and we barely talked." He gave me a look. "Did you two fight?" I turned back to my tray. "Where's Kai?" His mouth tight
