All Chapters of My Bullies Are Twin Hockey Players: Chapter 221 - Chapter 230

Jasper’s POVI walked out of Xavier’s room and quietly closed the door behind me, leaning against the hallway wall for a moment to collect my thoughts.Xavier was absolutely devastated. I’d never seen him like that before, so broken, so hopeless. Sure, we’d both been through our share of heartbreak and disappointment over the years, but this was different. This was deeper.The mysterious girlfriend, I thought to myself as I headed toward my own room. It had to be her. The girl Xavier had been so secretive about, the one he’d been in love with for months but wouldn’t tell me anything about. Something must have happened tonight. Maybe she broke up with him. Maybe she rejected him. Whatever it was, it had completely shattered him.I felt guilty for not being able to help more. But how could I help when Xavier wouldn’t even tell me who the girl was or what had actually happened? All I could do was be there for him and hope that was enough.I got ready for bed mechanically, my mind still o

Jasper’s POVI looked down at the flier Sarah had given me, scanning through the university’s programs and the beautiful campus photos one more time before folding it carefully and tucking it into my pocket.“I’ll go through it later,” I told Sarah. “When I have more time to really think about it properly.”Sarah nodded, seeming satisfied with that answer. “Just promise me you’ll actually look at it and not just forget about it at the bottom of your pocket.”“I promise,” I said with a small smile.We sat there for a moment in comfortable silence, and then a question that had been nagging at me since yesterday suddenly came to the front of my mind.“Can I ask you something else?” I said.“Sure,” Sarah replied.“What kind of person is Tony?” I asked. “Like, really. I know he’s been at the center of everything that happened to you, but I don’t actually know him that well. What’s he like?”Sarah’s expression became thoughtful, her eyes distant like she was sorting through memories and try

Tara’s POVMonday morning. I woke up before my alarm, my eyes opening to stare at my ceiling as the early morning light filtered through my curtains. I didn’t want to go to school. The thought of walking through those halls, seeing those faces, made my stomach twist with anxiety.The flashes kept coming back, unbidden and unwanted. Jake’s hands on me. His voice whispered in my ear. The way I’d felt safe and wanted and understood. And then that moment when I’d yanked the mask off and seen Xavier’s face staring back at me.I felt like such a fool. Such a complete and utter fool.I forced myself to get out of bed and went through my morning routine on autopilot. Shower. Get dressed. Brush my hair. Put on minimal makeup to hide the dark circles under my eyes from barely sleeping.By the time I was fully dressed in my school uniform, I should have been ready to leave. But I found myself just standing in my room, staring at my closed door like it was a wall I couldn’t climb over.I couldn’t

Jasper’s POVMisled?I stood there staring at Tara, trying to make sense of what she’d just yelled at me. The entire classroom was silent, everyone watching us like we were some kind of dramatic TV show.“What do you mean I misled you?” I asked, my voice careful and controlled. I needed to understand what was happening. “Tara, please explain what you’re talking about.”Tara’s face was flushed with anger, her eyes bright with unshed tears. She looked at me like I was the worst person in the world.“Xavier has been playing pranks on me,” she said, her voice shaking with emotion. “And you just sat there watching it all unfold. You knew what he was doing and you said nothing!”I felt like the ground had dropped out from under me. Pranks? What pranks? Xavier and I had agreed weeks ago that we were done with the pranks. He’d promised me he was going to stop because he wanted Tara to see him differently.“What pranks?” I asked, genuinely confused. “Tara, Xavier stopped pranking you. We both

Tara’s POVThe moment the principal walked out of the classroom, it was like someone had released a dam. The room erupted into an uproar of chatters and whispers. Everyone was talking at once, their voices overlapping into a chaotic mess.“Did you hear that? Expulsion!”“Who do you think leaked it?”“Two weeks detention for Zoey…”“I can’t believe she forged a permission letter…”I heard a group of students near the windows talking loudly enough for everyone to hear.“I heard Sarah’s parents threatened to sue the school,” one girl said, her voice carrying across the room. “That’s why the principal is being so serious about finding who leaked it.”My head turned toward Sarah automatically. She was sitting quietly at her desk, but I could see the tension in her shoulders.“Is that true?” I asked her quietly. “Did your parents threaten to sue?”Sarah nodded slowly. “My mom called the school over the weekend. She told them if they didn’t find out who violated my privacy and distributed th
