Ariel’s POVThe rain lashed against Professor Grayson’s window. I hadn’t planned on being here, in his private space.the rain pounding the roof, filled the awkward silence as i stood by his kitchen counter, my paint stained fingers fidgeting it's the hem of my equally stained t-shirt.“I’m sorry about this,” I said for what felt like the hundredth time. “I should have checked the weather forecast before agreeing to stay late.”He moved in his kitchen as gracefully as he did in front of his students. He was the youngest professor in the art history department at twenty eight, but he carried himself with the gravity of a much older man.“There’s nothing to apologise for Ariel,” he replied, his back to me as he filled a kettle with water. “The forecast didn’t call for a storm of this magnitude. The weather caught even the meteorologist by surprise.”I nodded, though he couldn’t see me. I let my eyes wander around his apartment. It was an open concept loft, the kind artists in movies alwa

The moment Luther stepped away from Ariel, she felt the weight of his words pressing down on her, heavy and crushing. ‘It was just a one night stand. The words echoed in her mind.She clenched her jaw, refusing to let the sting of his words show on her face. She wouldn’t give him the satisfaction.But her ankle had other plans for her.Pain shot up her leg with every step she took,making her wince. She gritted her teeth, pushing forward, determined to get to the nurse’s office before anyone could stop her to ask what happened. Unfortunately, someone did.“Ariel?”She barely had time to register the familiar voice before Ethan Cross was suddenly at her side.Tall, broad shouldered, and effortlessly charming. Ethan had the kind of charm that turned heads wherever he went. His tousled dark brown hair, sharp jawline, and deep blue eyes had earned him the title of campus heartthrob, not to mention he was a star basketball player.“You’re limping?” His brows furrowed as he took in er paine

A few weeks later, Ariel walked to the lecture hall, her eyes scanning the crowd until they landed on a familiar figure walking ahead of her.“Stacy!” She called, waving.The girl in question grinned, her ginger curls bouncing with each step she took. Stacy was Ariel’s only friend aside from Daniel.“Do you have a minute?” Ariel smiled as she stopped in front of her.“For you? Always.” Stacy replied. “You okay? You look kinda… tense”“I’m fine.” Ariel replied quickly. “I just wanted to ask you something. Do you think you could help me find a part time job?”Stacy blinked, then broke into a mischievous smile. “Oh my goodness, Ariel. Is that why you're so tense?”Ariel nodded. “Kinda. I didn’t know how to ask you about it.”“We're friends, so feel free to ask for my help with anything. I never hesitate to ask you to help me when I need help, do I?”“That’s true,” Ariel admitted with a smile. “You had no problem asking me to proofread your entire sociology per at 3 AM last month.”“Exact

Ariel’s eyes fluttered open, they felt heavy due to all the painkillers. She winced in pain as she tried to sit up, her head throbbed with every movement, and it took her a full minute to realize where she was. The hospital.

The memory of what happened at the bar surged through her… the drunk customer, Luther’s furious voice, and then… the bottle. She remembered the sharp pain she felt.
