MONICABy the time I finally dragged myself onto the field, PE was already breathing its last breath, whistles echoing loud and annoyed, students loosening up like prisoners at the sound of freedom. I let out a quiet sigh that felt like it came from somewhere deep and tired. I’d made it. Barely. My body felt like it had been wrung out and left to dry wrong, but I stood there anyway, hands on my hips, trying not to look like I’d been unraveling all day.“Monica,” the coach barked. He had his clipboard tucked under his arm, eyes already narrowing like he’d been waiting for this moment. “Care to explain why you think you can stroll into my class whenever you feel like it?”“I’m sorry,” I said immediately, the words tumbling out fast. “I really am, it won’t happen again, I had something come up and—”“Save it Miss Lee,” he cut in. “You’re on thin ice. One more slip and I’ll make sure administration hears about it. You understand me?”“Yes,” I nodded quickly. “Yes, sir. I’m sorry. I reall

JULIANIt’s been days. Actual days. The kind that stretch and drag and get ugly around the edges, the kind where your phone stays face-down not because you’re busy but because you already know it won’t light up with the name you want. Dominic hasn’t texted me. Not once. No apology, no explanation, no half-assed joke pretending nothing happened. And yeah, I expected that, because after the stunt I pulled at his birthday party, silence feels like the most Dominic response possible.Still hurts though.I keep replaying it in my head like my brain is bored and cruel and needs new ways to punish me, and it always starts with Monica. With that conversation. With the way she looked at me like she actually saw me, like I wasn’t crazy or dramatic or asking for too much. Like I wasn’t wrong for wanting to be chosen out loud.~Flashback~The party was already loud when I got there, music shaking the floor, bodies everywhere, alcohol flowing like it was free water, Dominic’s stupid rich-boy birt

JULIANI spiralled. I'd never spiralled as hard as I did last night. I was spiraling so hard my brain felt like it was chewing on itself. Every stupid sentence I’d said to Dominic looping like a bad chorus.Like why did I say that? Why did I act like I was done with him when I wasn’t? Why did I look him in the eyes and pretend I was stronger than I am? Why. Why. Why.Because I’m not, I’m soft in the places that matter and reckless where it hurts most and I am still waiting on his text back like a total but job. But I'd just have to bury all that worry and all those questions for now. I would deal with that later because right now I had a job.Monica texted me last night asking if I could pick her up for school and that alone was weird enough to shove my mess into a box and duct-tape it shut. Because when your best friend is drowning you don’t complain about your wet shoes, you just jump in and save her fine half asian ass.I pulled up outside her house ten minutes early because my a

JULIAN"Block who?" I asked with hope. Hope that he was jealous and he was asking me to block Cooper. He took a few strides towards me closing in on the already little gap between us. I could feel my heart beating so hard I feared he would hear it, he was so close after all. "You know who I'm talking about" he said in a whisper, his voice directly funneled into my ear as his lips grazed my ear lobes and his hands worked it's way around the nape of my back."Why should I do that? It's not like you care anyways" I said the words hurting me as they left my lips."You know that's not true Julian and even if it was, you're mine and I don't want to share you with anyone" he said this time placing a kiss on my neck.I sucked in my breath, my body betraying my mind. "I- I'm not your property" I struggled to say. "I'm not some toy you get to pick up when you're bored and interested in playing with". I said while shoving him, the words waking me from his aphrodisiac touches."Don't act like yo

MONICAI'd always known Julian and Dominic were in a sex based relationship but Julian saying it out loud like that made the world tilt a little, like gravity had opinions now. I just stared at him because sometimes words don’t come out the right away, sometimes they circle your head first like vultures waiting for you to stop breathing.“Okay maybe asking so much questions is stupid but,” I corrected myself, “you actually said it.”He nodded too fast, then shook his head, then nodded again, pacing like the floor might open up and swallow him if he stopped moving. “I didn’t mean to, I swear, it just came out, like I was already halfway gone and my mouth didn’t get the memo, and now I don’t know what I’ve done.”I leaned back against the lockers because my legs decided they were optional. “Julian. Breathe.”“I am breathing,” he snapped, then immediately deflated. “Okay, no, I’m not. I’m trying.”I watched him for a second and noticed the way his jaw clenched like he was biting down on
