Paige’s POV

The words I’m sorry lodged in my throat.

Then I remembered who was sitting in front of me.

“Are you serious right now?” I snapped. “I should be asking you what the fuck, not the other way around.”

Knox slammed the SUV into park near the sidewalk. Luckily, the street was almost empty.

He was still rubbing at his eyes like his life depended on it.

“I was trying to make sure you got home safe,” he gritted out, tears streaming down his face as he squeezed his eyes shut. “So yeah… my que

    Paige's POV My heart skipped several beats at once. Of course, the one person I’d tried to get away from would be waiting for me at the end of the staircase in Leah’s family home.I stared at Knox, wondering if the universe had developed a personal vendetta against me.“Knox,” I said, managing a smile that probably looked more like a warning. “How unfortunate.”“Missed you too Midget.”“Who said I missed you?”“Children,” Victoria interrupted, looking between us with an amused expression. “Must you start already?”“We’re not starting anything,” I said immediately.“Of course not Midget,” Knox agreed. He sounded far too pleased with himself.“Oh, I see. He still calls you that!”I blinked. “Call me what?”“Midget!” She shook her head, laughing. “He’s been calling you that since you became friends with Leah. I kept telling him it wasn’t nice.”“It’s a term of endearment, Mum.”I turned towards him so quickly I nearly gave myself whiplash. “It's not and I hate it.”Knox looked at me inn

  • The Hockey Player who Hates me    Chapter 55- Hes not supposed to be here.

    Paige POV“I can’t wait for the weekend.” Leah gushed, as we walked across campus.“Oh, really?” I asked, and she nodded excitedly. Leah had been talking about going home all weekend. I suspected the excitement had less to do with seeing her parents and more to do with something else. Honestly, I couldn’t blame her.Between classes, my internship, and a certain infuriating hockey player, this needed this break. “Anyway, I have to go,” I said, slowing near the walkway that led towards the administrative offices. “Mrs. Anderson wants me in her office.”Leah’s smile turned mischievous. “Oh, right. Your little project.”I narrowed my eyes. “Don’t.”She burst out laughing. “Good luck, Paige. Try not to kill him.”“No promises. Love you!”“Love you too. Bye!”I watched her hurry towards her next class before turning in the opposite direction.My smile faded as I approached the administrative building.I was meeting Knox.And after the events of the previous week, I had made a few decisio

  • The Hockey Player who Hates me    Chapter 54- The Jerk

    Paige's POVKnox was furious.His hands were clenched at his sides, flexing and unflexing as though he was debating whether to strangle someone, most likely Mike.Mike, to his credit, didn't look particularly intimidated."Are you kicking the captain of your own team out of your house?" he asked, releasing my waist.Knox's expression darkened. "Are you sure you're still the captain?"Mike's jaw tightened, something sharper flashing behind his eyes, but before he could fire back, I stepped in.Oh, for God's sake.This was turning into a pissing contest, and a few people nearby had already begun glancing our way. The last thing I wanted was a fight breaking out and me having to explain to Leah why her brother seemed ready to murder my ex-boyfriend over a dance."It's fine," I interrupted before Mike could respond. I forced a smile that probably looked more like a grimace. "Mike and I were already done dancing."Mike turned to me, a muscle ticking in his jaw. "If that's what you want." H

  • The Hockey Player who Hates me    Chapter 53- Take your hands off her.

    Paige's POV I practically flew down the stairs.My face was burning, and I could still feel the embarrassment crawling up my neck. Of all the things that could have happened tonight, walking in on Knox kissing Sienna had to be the absolute worst.And the fact that he’d caught me staring?God, I wanted the floor to swallow me whole.I reached the bottom of the stairs and headed towards the pool area, desperately hoping the cool night air would do something about my flaming cheeks.I immediately spotted Leah. She laughed at something Enzo said.The moment she saw me, her smile widened.“There you are!” She waved me over. “Where have you been?”"Looking for you." My voice came out higher than usual. I cleared my throat, tried again. "Looking for you."Leah’s eyes narrowed. “Why do you look like that?” She leaned closer, examining my face. “Your cheeks are red.”“I'm ok. I was looking for you, and now I’ve found you. So can we please go to a party? That’s what we came here for, isn’t it

  • The Hockey Player who Hates me    Chapter 52- Knox’s House.

    Paige’s POVI stared at myself in the mirror.“Okay,” I whispered. “Damn.”The dress fit me perfectly. It hugged my waist before falling loosely over my hips, and the neckline was just low enough to make me feel pretty without making me feel like I was trying too hard. I’d paired it with a simple necklace, small earrings, and heels I was already regretting.I couldn’t remember the last time I’d stood in front of a mirror and genuinely liked what I saw.A few months ago, I’d have thrown on the biggest shirt I could find and called it a day. If Leah suggested going somewhere, I’d come up with an excuse. I was always too tired, too busy, or simply not in the mood.I looked back at my reflection.The girl staring at me now looked different. Confident. My phone buzzed on the bed.Leah: WHERE ARE YOU?I rolled my eyes.Me: Getting ready, why are you texting when we are literally in the same house? Leah: Lol. Hurry up, We’ve been getting ready for an hour.Me: Some of us have to work for b

    Paige's POV"Paige? Knox? Are you guys—" Leah's voice cut through the corridor.I jumped away from Knox so quickly that I nearly stumbled over my own feet.Oh, my God.My heart was pounding so hard I could practically hear it in my ears.Knox looked so unaffected, like his sister hadn't almost walked into us.Leah appeared, her eyes moving between the two of us. "Well, I'm impressed that you two haven't torn each other's heads off yet."Knox scoffed. "Give us time. It'll come.""See?" Leah pointed at him. "Can't you go five minutes without being insufferable?""Can you?" Knox retorted.I pressed my lips together, fighting the urge to laugh. They bickered for a while before Leah turned to me, a smile plastered on her face."Paige, you were amazing out there!"I blinked. "Huh?""With the reporters!" She stepped closer, practically bouncing on her feet. "The way you told them Knox had no comment? So professional! I felt my cheeks warm. "Well, I just thought they were being a little too
