Chapter 39 - Our Walk Home
"Alexis?"
I grunt as I hear Lean calling for my name again. What's her problem this time? She always disturbs my sleep as if it's the most normal thing she can do.
"Alexis, we're here."
I opened my eyes upon realizing that it wasn't Lean's voice. I felt the embarrassment seeping into my body after realizing that I had fallen asleep on Ezra's shoulder, and he was the one calling my name.
Wait, did I drool on him? I immediately wiped the corner of my mouth and was relieved after noticing that there wasn't a drool there. Thank goodness. I would have died due to shame if I did dro

Trapped in Lace Chapter 40 - Recuperating
It took me a whole week just to recover from the injury I got from the school trip. Talk about dramatic. Lean told me to rest for a while, so I couldn't work at all, and Lean didn't have any choice but to cancel everything in Lia's schedule without telling anyone about what happened to her. People must be thinking again that she's overly mysterious. Though that's just what I thought— Anyway, Armin became the temporary setter for the team. I'm so glad Ezra helped me explain how that injury happened to me, though it led to them complaining to him. He basically said that it was his fault why that incident happened. All I could do the whole week was watch all of them train on the side. It's not bad at all, watching on the sidelines, that is. I see h
Trapped in Lace Chapter 41 - Lia's Secret in Danger
The next day arrived, and just like what I said yesterday, I paid our family doctor a visit. "Your ankle's fully healed now, but you should still be careful, okay?" Said Doctor Michael. He's our family doctor who is a close friend of mom and dad. He stood up from his seat as he was about to put down his stethoscope, but upon witnessing that I still hadn't left my seat, he looked back at me. "Is there anything else, Ion?" I gulped as I hesitated to tell about my heart disease, or so I think? But I'm getting anxious because my heart gets weird often. "I… My heart feels weird." Doctor Michael grabbed his stethoscope as he sat back on his chair again. "Could you elaborate that?"&
Trapped in Lace Chapter 42 - "Don't Covet What Doesn't Belong to You"
It's not just Jasper anymore. The guy I was trying to find turns out to be the same guy who wants to become my friend. But the good part here is I can watch his every move, and I'll threaten him right away if he ever tries to reveal Lia's secret. That's it, that's what I'm going to do. As long as Ezra doesn't figure out who I really am, then it'll be fine. I can still protect this secret. "Sorry for my brother's mistake." Ebony made Ezra bow his head again as she smiled at me. "We'll go now." I nodded after Ebony said that, and she pulled Ezra, who's still out of it, away from where I was. When they disappeared from my sight, as if something was pulled out of my chest, I could breathe freely again.
Trapped in Lace Chapter 43 - How Hard It Is to Trust Someone
The photoshoot went well with all the models getting along with me. It's actually fun being in the center of all of them. I truly enjoyed this today, not like the usual that all I could feel was the tiredness. That's at least while I was with everyone. But as soon as we finished, Jasper excused the two of us. Without giving them any context or proper reason for why we need to be excused simultaneously and even together. Though hesitant, Kim gave me an 'okay' sign, which relieved me that I wouldn't have to suffer from any issues because of Jasper's compulsiveness. There's no place for us to talk, but Jasper brought me to the rooftop. This is the only place he could think of? What is this? Some kind of high school drama? "What do you want to
Trapped in Lace Chapter 44 - To Keep Lia's Secret Safe
Monday came, and everything was back to normal, except for the fact that I now keep my eyes on Ezra. At lunchtime, I was watching him from afar while he ate with Dwight and the others. Even Mitch was baffled by my actions, but I can’t hesitate right now. There’s a big chance that Ezra might slip up and say what he saw to Dwight. Thinking about Dwight, he might like celebrities and models, and he might even like Lia too. When that time comes, I should be there to stop Ezra before things get worst. “Why do you keep watching Ezra? Did he do something wrong to you? Wait, isn’t this the first time we’re going to eat in the cafeteria? What’s going on? Hello, enlighten me, please.” I couldn’t answer Mitch’s questions, but I know how curious he’ll becom
Trapped in Lace Chapter 45 - It's Love
Ezra's POVThese days, Alexis's being weird. He would always stare at me and even glare at me. As if Alexis's watching my every move and would even follow me wherever I go. I act that I don't notice him, but he's too cute for me to not notice.Even if he tried to hide from the back of a wall or something, I could still feel his presence. I like it when he's paying attention to me like that, but my heart won't be able to handle it if he keeps staring at me with those cute and round eyes during training.We even started going home together after training. It gives too much bliss to my heart that I'm thankful for whatever reason Alexis has to be with me all the time."Y
Trapped in Lace Chapter 46 - What's Wrong With Me?
Alexis's POVMitch and I were on our way towards the cafeteria until Mitch suddenly stopped walking. I bumped into his back because I was following him from behind. "Isn't that Ezra?" I looked in the window where Mitch pointed his finger.There we saw Ezra in the backyard with a girl. I squinted my eyes and realized that it was the same girl I had seen with him before when they arrived back from their class trip. That time when I tried to call Ezra's name, but that girl appeared out of nowhere.We saw how Ezra laughed and patted the girl's head as if it was normal for him to act like that in front of her. "I thought Ezra's afraid of women? How come he looks comfortable touching and looking at that girl? As if he's in love with h
Trapped in Lace Chapter 47 - Caught a Cold
Hearing Ezra says that makes me feel like I was rejected, and it didn't feel good. Not at all. Coach Alfred decided to end the practice with that since the others were also having trouble focusing. I thought I would receive some hate comments from Devon and his friends again, but they ignored me and just went with what the coach said. That's strange. It's not like Devon and his friends to be like that. Shouldn't Devon be blaming me for my incompetence? I can't even deny that because I was easily distracted by things that don't even matter that much. "Should I come with you until your house?" Mitch asked that as we were on our way towards the gate. We finished changing clothes as so
