Hailey Queen I reached home drenched in wine and sticky red liquid, my body trembling, each step heavier than the last. My arms hugged myself as if I could somehow shield my heart from the crushing weight of humiliation. Tears streamed freely down my cheeks, stinging my skin, but I couldn’t stop them. “Thank you… for helping me,” I whispered shakily to the strange guy in the black T-shirt. I didn't dare look at his face, I was in my own world of humiliation. He had pulled me away from Brighton, his presence a small lifeline amidst the storm of jeers and mockery. He nodded, giving me a gentle, understanding look. “Just go home and stay safe.” I forced a weak smile and stepped inside. The sight that met me made my stomach drop. Madison was already there, wrapped in my father’s arms, her face wet with perfectly timed fake tears. Her eyes sparkled with a cruel delight. “Hailey…” she said softly, her voice trembling in mock sorrow. “I… I didn’t mean for him to…” I blinked at her, my

Hailey Queen A few days had passed since that intoxicating , ridiculous kiss with Roy, and I couldn’t stop thinking about it. I tried to avoid him at school, pretending I hadn’t noticed the way his piercing blue eyes lingered on me or how that smirk made my stomach twist. But every time I closed my eyes, I could still feel his lips brushing against mine, teasing, bold… impossible. Last night hadn’t helped at all. My dreams betrayed me. Each one of my dreams featured with Roy banging me like his life depended on it. Gosh how I wish it was real. I trailed my hand down to my panties, I felt the moisture that probably oozed out from my sleep. I had desperate dreams of him that left me tossing and turning until I woke up sweating, my hair plastered to my forehead. I rolled onto my side, trying to calm my racing heart. “This is ridiculous,” I whispered to myself. “It was just a kiss. Nothing more.” Yet as I walked down the school hallway that morning, hoping not to bump into Roy, I w

Hailey Queen Our eyes locked instantly; his minty breath was low and controlled. For a second, I felt like smashing my lips against his. I could feel our lips almost brushing, but I instantly pulled away and chuckled nervously. "Uhm... I think I have to get to bed now. It's late and I have some... stuff to do tomorrow. Sooo, I say we reserve that kiss for later. How’s that, Captain?" I punched his shoulder lightly. He smirked, pierced his gaze into mine, and held my hand. He pulled me closer to his chest with blazing force. I swallowed hard, not knowing what he would do next. "Smart little star... I’ll see you tomorrow then. Oh, and someone's at the door." He captivated my senses like an FBI agent—I didn’t even realize there was a knock. My palms got sweaty almost immediately, and I ran a hand through my hair. Panic rushed through my veins. I quickly opened the window, my voice barely audible. "Go! Before I’m caught... You’ll be in trouble—" I half-yelled. "Hailey! Open up th

Hailey QueenThe nurse’s office was quiet...too quiet for my liking. The smell of antiseptic stung my nostrils as I shut the door behind me. My heart was still racing from what had just happened in the hallway.“Hailey?” Nurse Quinn’s soft voice broke the silence. She was in her mid-forties, calm eyes, kind smile—the kind of woman who could make anyone feel safe, but even her kindness felt like a luxury I didn’t deserve.“What happened this time?” she asked gently, motioning for me to sit.I forced a laugh. “Just a stupid accident, fell by the fountain it nothing serious.”Her brows furrowed. “You always say that, but you keep coming back here with fresh bruises. Don’t lie to me, Hailey. Did your sister do this again?”I froze. My throat tightened like someone had wrapped a rope around it. “No, Nurse Quinn. It’s not like that, I swear.”She sighed and didn’t push further. “Let me at least clean your nose.” She dabbed at the dried blood with a warm cloth. I winced.“You know, the schoo

Hailey Queen’s POVThe morning sunlight streamed through the windows as I walked into school, my hair perfectly styled, outfit crisp and flawless. Every step felt light, confident. I could feel the eyes on me—friends, classmates, even a few strangers glancing as I passed by. The mirror in the hall reflected the version of me I wanted the world to see: composed, glowing, untouchable.“Hailey, you look amazing!” one girl whispered as I passed, and I offered a polite, almost shy smile. It was nice—finally nice—to be admired without someone trying to tear me down.I felt the familiar warmth of pride settle in my chest. Today, I wasn’t just Hailey the quiet girl. Today, I was glowing.Then my phone vibrated. A text from Madison flashed across the screen:"You think you can just have a little glow up and outshine me? Dad’s on the line. He will sort you out...you’re just a slut."My stomach dropped. I stared at the screen, heart hammering. What?Before I could process it, the school office
