LOGINFalling for the school's star goalie was never the plan... especially when my father is the principal who just banned him from the ice. But getting caught in a scandal with the boy I'm supposed to 'fix'? That's more than a catastrophe; it's a death sentence. Aria Bennett is a top student with perfect grades but no social life. She is assigned to tutor the school's newest transfer student, Jason Monroe. However, Jason is consistently late to their sessions, cocky, and resistant to being told what to do. Aria just wants to get the tutoring over with. Things take a turn when she discovers that Jason is on academic probation and risks losing his spot as the goalie on the hockey team. This revelation softens Aria's perspective on him. As their late-night tutoring sessions become a regular occurrence, Aria starts to see the vulnerabilities behind Jason's tough exterior. Meanwhile, Jason never intended to develop feelings for the girl who dresses in oversized hoodies and carries notebooks. Yet, somehow, Aria is getting under his skin and possibly into his heart. "Does Daddy know you're at a party full of hot hockey players and drinking beer?" "Leave me alone," I spat. Jason grinned slyly and leaned in closer. "You know I heard you dressed up thinking you were going on a date, and the guy turned out to be gay." In a drunken stumble, Jason stepped too close and fell on top of me. Jason's eyes fluttered open slightly as he cupped my face. I froze. His hands were warm against my skin, but rational thought fled me. He gave me a look that screamed trouble. And just as I suspected, he leaned in and kissed my lips. My brain had completely shut down. It was my first kiss.

Alright, that doesn't make any sense. But that's it. Nothing makes any sense at this point as I stare at the person who has just called my name. Aria. Arianna Bennett. Granted, I haven't seen my best friend since... since I left her living room. It's been so long and at the same time, not that long at all. I mean, it's almost nine months and at the same time, it doesn't feel like nine months.Oh my God. What the hell is she doing here? No, no. That is not the right question to ask. How did she get here? Or rather, who told her where to find me? Fuck. I have so many questions swirling in my head at this point.I don't even know what to think. Or how to feel, or what to do. We didn't exactly leave things off on the right foot months ago. I'm not sure if she misses me, or if she's forgiven me.But
LILYI thought I loved my babies while they were in me, but nothing, absolutely nothing, could have prepared me for the insane, all-consuming amount of love I have for them now that I can see them, hold them, feel their tiny breaths against my skin, and... I just can't let them out of my sight.It's overwhelming. The love, I mean. It's so crushing and soul pushing that I did cry for ten minutes after birthing Aurora and Asher. All I did the second day was stare at them. My babies are so perfect. I can't believe I made them. All those back-aches, the bizzare cravings, the nausea, the pains... I think they're worth it.Jace and Bailey are so excited and they haven't shut up about the babies since we got home. Cole is happy and congratuled Aiden and I. Tyler... Tyler is just Tyler. I can't read him. I don't really care how he feels right now, not in the way I used to. That sounded rude, even to my own ears. I do care, of course, but... I have more important things to worry about now than
LILYSix days.Six days ago, I was certain the world was ending in the hallway. Like... when the pain started, it just refused to go away. And then I heard shouting and then I couldn't feel my legs and Aiden was there and... Phew.Today, I'm standing in front of a hospital mirror, bracing my hands on the cool porcelain of the sink, and actually recognizing the girl looking back at me. She's Lily. With the bump. I look six months pregnant now. My skin is a bit translucent, and the dark circles under my eyes look like bruised thumbprints, but I’m upright.Yesterday, getting to the bathroom felt like climbing Everest with Aiden acting as my human crutch. My mom says I should take it one step at a time but... I felt useless just taking orders from Louisiana. I mean... all she adviced was rolling in bed, dangling my legs, sitting upright and stuff.I touch my abdomen, feeling the pull of the incision beneath the high-waisted mesh underwear. It stings. I’ve been coping by taking it one bre
AIDENLily used to lean on me all the time. I'd laugh and tease her about how obsessed she was. But today, I'm not laughing. Because... I think I'm the obsessed one. The weight of her leaning against me is the only thing keeping me grounded. It's a good thing that she's trying to be brave and talk through the pain. "Aria... she's good," I say. I try to focus on the conversation, to be the distraction she needs. "She's doing so well with Jemaya. And Jason... they miss you so much."Lily gives a tiny, pained smile, her eyes fluttering shut. "You have no idea how much I miss my best friend. And... Jemaya?" She raises a brow."Their little girl. God... you should see her. She's so..." I pause. "She's so good." My voice lowers. Fuck. I'm getting all sentimental and emotional."I want to see her." Lily mumbles. "She'll be the best big sister to our babies. Shushing her dolls so they don't wake up..." I stare at Lily. She's rambling. Her body goes rigid, her hand, which was resting loosel
AIDEN"Do you know where she is?" I ask Jason the moment I'm face-to-face with him. He just glares at me. Because he thinks this is fucking funny. I try again, my voice grit and gravel."Do you know where my girlfriend is?" He arches a brow. "Your girlfriend? The one you ended things with? Or... y
LILYAria drives, while I sit in the passenger seat, staring at the tacky blue and pink boxes of the tests we'd gotten. She insisted I check them right there at the pharmacy bathroom, but I declined. She drives to a halt right outside Aiden's empty apartment... which is now my empty apartment unti
Aria's POV"Makeup sex?" I stuck out my bottom lip in a pout, giving my boyfriend the full effect of my cutest kitten eyes.He tilted his head, the streetlights reflecting in his amused, dark eyes as he watched me. A slow, infuriatingly sexy smile played on his lips.I'd seriously give anything to
Aria's POV🔞🔞I didn't know how we got back to the car. I didn't know how we got in or how much space there was for me. I was half-sitting in his lap, legs resting awkwardly on the passenger seat.His mouth was on mine the next second. Fuck. It was hot. Jason knew how to kiss. I moaned into the k
