In the cozy condo, Ace's confession hung in the air, thick with emotion. Isabella, her heart pounding, leaned in and whispered, "Ace, I love you too." Their love ignited like a long-awaited spark, but across town, tension simmered in Isabella's apartment. Avery had grown suspicious, her patience worn thin by Isabella's evasions. With a swift, shocking motion, Avery's hand met Isabella's cheek in a stinging slap. "Tell me the truth, Isabella," Avery demanded, her eyes blazing with fury, "or our friendship ends right here." The room quivered with the weight of their confrontation, secrets on the verge of shattering. In a world where love and secrets collide, their destinies intertwined, the truth became the key to unlocking a tale of passion, friendship, and redemption.

CHAPTER 1: SOUR PATCH
"Whoa!" Avery exclaimed."Look, Avery, there it is – the University of the Philippines," I declared.Avery, my lifelong friend since diapers, turned to me in awe, saying, "I'm at a loss for words, Isabella.""Are you ready?" I asked, my arms straining from the weight of the first of many unopened boxes we still had to carry."As ready as I'll ever be," she replied.With that, we entered the renowned campus, making our way to Manzanita Village, our home for the next four years.Ever since we visited UP during a class trip with Mr. Coleman from Our Lady of Fatima University in the Philippines, Avery and I had dreamt of coming here. We fell in love with the campus atmosphere and the programs it offered – Avery's voice program for her exceptional singing talent and the film and media studies program for my passion for the movie industry. Four years had passed, and now we were living the Filipino Dream.As Avery went to unlock our shared room, she mused, "I can't imagine not rooming with y

CHAPTER 2: INTOXICATED ENCOUNTER
**Update:** After two hours and three vodka shots, Charlotte Collins, though amusingly drunk, is struggling to keep up. She couldn't handle it, and it's not clear why we bothered with fake IDs given our pace. The rest of us managed about five shots on average before leaving the nightclub, but the night was far from over.We're currently taking prepaid Ubers back to Isla Vista for some fraternity parties."Which one should we hit?" William asks as we exit the cars, with Samuel carrying Charlotte bridal-style.Henry advises his brother, "Find the busiest one; those always have the best booze. And trust me, we need it. This tequila won't last for all seven of us."Avery notes, "We're on Del Playa, and they're all packed.""Isabella, your call," Noah instructs. "You've always had a knack for this kind of stuff.""Alright then," I contemplate for a moment before suggesting, "Alpha Epsilon Phi will be too crowded, and I doubt you all want to scrub neon paint off yourselves tomorrow with a h

CHAPTER 3: REUNION REVELATIONS
My throbbing hangover feels like Super Sonic slamming headfirst into a brick wall, I mused upon awakening.I had only roused myself from slumber about five minutes ago, and while my senses were still hazy, at least I could see again, albeit not very clearly. I remained at the frat house from the previous night, sprawled on a soft couch that would forever bear the imprint of my sunken-in posterior. I gingerly attempted to sit up, but an oppressive weight on my stomach sent me tumbling back down. I closed my eyes briefly, reaching out to remove this rock-like object. To my surprise, instead of a rock, my hand encountered something lengthy and slender—a hand.Upon opening my eyes, I discovered that this hand belonged to my good friend Noah Evans, who was conked out on the nearby table. Emitting a groan, I swiftly liberated his arm from my midsection, inadvertently smacking him in the face and jolting him awake."It wasn't me, honest!" Noah sputtered with wide eyes, before realization daw

CHAPTER 4: CHALLENGE ACCEPTED
As I scan through the list Avery put together, my initial reaction is a strong urge to smack my head against the nearest wall."Avery," I groan, my interest levels plummeting, "The Bad Boy and the Tomboy? Seriously?" I glance at the rest of the titles. "After? Who comes up with titles like that?"She answers nonchalantly, "Anna Todd did. It's pretty popular." She adds, "Well, whoever she is, I hope her story isn't about some overly good girl losing her virginity to a guy who turns out to be her one true love in the end, or something equally cliche. Ugh, I can already predict my reaction after reading it: three days of non-stop vomiting. I mean, even the title is as cliche as it gets, Avery.""Well, you might not be far off with the vomiting part, depending on your level of innocence. But considering your track record, I wouldn't worry too much.""Come again?""It'll make sense when you get to Chapter 28... and in every chapter after that."I look at her with puzzlement, but this time,

CHAPTER 5: SCHOOL DILEMMA
Despite my sleepless night, I managed to get up and dressed for the first day of school, feeling fully prepared.Once Avery headed off to work, Deborah called to share her job news. She asked me to review my class schedule and email her my availability before completing other paperwork. My sleep had been sporadic throughout the week, making this morning's awakening a struggle."Ready to go?" Avery inquired as she swung her backpack over her shoulder."Now I am," I responded, tossing a blue Sour Patch Kid into my mouth with a wink.She rolled her eyes, smiled, and grabbed a blue candy for herself. We made our way to the English department together, both enrolled in Introduction to Shakespeare with the same professor. Don't ask why; you'll soon find out. At least we had each other in the class."I can't believe this was the only English course left," Avery grumbled as we located seats towards the back of the lecture room. "I adore Shakespeare's plays, but if we have to craft our sonnets

CHAPTER 6: PARTY FEVER
Since my second encounter with Max, an entire week had passed, during which I'd only discovered that we both had the same philosophy class. I was taking it to fulfill my history or culture requirement.I strolled into the lecture hall for this class, wondering if I'd overslept. It seemed deserted. Panic set in as I checked my phone for the time, only to find out I was actually early. A sigh of relief escaped me. I headed to the seat I'd occupied for the past few lectures, but as more minutes passed with no sign of others, I had a thought. It wasn't my usual style, but my relentless best friend had backed me into a corner.I placed my belongings on the lecture table and occupied a different seat for the next hour.Max entered the room two minutes later. At least, I thought it was Max. He had his hoodie pulled so far down that it obscured his face, making me uncertain. However, when that husky voice commanded me to move, the muscular figure confirmed my suspicion."Why's he in such a fo

CHAPTER 7: COLLISION COURSE
"So, is it a sleepover with Jake or not?" Avery inquires, sipping her tea — pun intended.I respond, "No, far from it. I spent the last hour of my Friday night escorting a lunatic who seemed hell-bent on self-destruction home." I recount the tale to Avery."No way!" She practically shrieks. "I knew I'd made the right choice with him! And using the IV drip as a diversion... you go, girl! Works like a charm to play hard to get.""Yeah, well, maybe a little too well," I mutter.Honestly, I hadn't anticipated him actually wanting to walk me home. I thought he'd give up after a few rejections."You can say that again," Avery quips, winking. "It's pretty evident he's already into you.""Whatever," I quickly retort before her thoughts run amok. "So, how was your night with Kalix?"She lets out that sigh she only does when she's truly content or satisfied."Isabelle, it was mind-blowing. Seriously, the best time I've ever had with a guy.""Really?" I ask, genuinely surprised. "Even better tha

CHAPTER 8: FLASHBACK FLING
"Isabella, do you mind hanging onto the keys when you lock up tonight?" Lisa asks as she rummages through her purse for her car keys. "I know you've got an early shift tomorrow, but Deborah and I won't be here until ten. We've got a meeting with our investors.""No problem," I reply."Thanks a million," she says, finally retrieving her keys. "Have a good night, and we'll see you in the morning.""See you then," I respond with a smile.Lisa exits the bakery, and with no immediate customer needs to attend to, I take a moment to check my phone for messages. I notice a missed call from Alex and promptly return it, taking a sip of my water as I dial.After two rings, Alex answers with, "Hey, you loser."I play along, teasing him, "Bro, been talking to yourself again? Thought you quit that ages ago," and he chuckles."How's it going, sis? Been meaning to check in on you."I update him, "School, work, same old, same old," before lowering my voice and adding, "challenge.""Wait, did you just

CHAPTER 9: UNPREDICTABLE ENCOUNTERS
I turn to Avery and inquire, "You sure you don't mind tackling the laundry tonight, G? I can handle it when I get back."With a shirt folded in hand, I finish my thought. Avery lets out a sigh, and I pick up one of her shirts, saying, "After all, isn't the whole point of being your little sister to make your life easier? So, no worries, I'll take care of the laundry.""I don't care what you say, but I'm not letting you give up. It doesn't matter that you haven't spoken to that guy in a month; the semester isn't over yet," Avery insists."You're crazy," I reply, shaking my head."No, I believe in fate and miracles. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm already late for my date," she retorts.I respond with a smile, "Tell Kalix I said hi.""And make sure Connor doesn't sleep in my bed," Avery adds.We share a laugh, and she heads out, leaving me alone until Connor arrives.Indeed, a lot had happened in the past month. Avery and Kalix continued hanging out, still an adorable couple after three w

CHAPTER 10: UNSPOKEN BET
In a fiery kiss, Max whisks us into his room, slams the door, and locks it. He grabs my waist, lifting me, our lips never parting. I hold tight, fingers entwined in his hair, igniting a throaty groan. Our shoes fly off, we crash onto his bed, him on top.He breaks our scorching kiss, descending to my neck, fingers toying with my shirt's string."How much do you adore this top?" he teases."Go for it," I respond, catching his drift.Without hesitation, he yanks the string, ripping my shirt apart, unveiling my bare breasts. Damn, why's that so arousing?Focus, Isabella. Enjoy, but stay in control.Wet kisses blaze across my chest and down my stomach. Max swiftly unzips my skirt, tossing it aside, his eyes filled with a devilish grin."Do you like what you see?" I ask, raising myself on my elbows.He strips, revealing his well-endowed "friend." Yeah, forgive the silly joke, but it's mind-blowing. Let's focus on Max's reaction instead; it mirrors my astonishment."Too much for you?" Max s
