Tutor For The Outcast

CALLAThe worst part about heartbreak isn’t crying. It’s showing up the next morning and pretending nothing happened.The hallway is loud with lockers slamming and laughter echoing through the building. Senior year banners and hockey tryouts posters are taped above the lockers and on walls. Of course the Falcons, Blackridge High’s hockey team is the face of the school. Everyone looks excited for the new year, especially seniors for their last year.I feel hollow.My phone is still in my hand. I shouldn’t have checked Instagram again before walking in. I shouldn’t have looked at the picture twice. Three times. I shouldn’t have zoomed in on the timestamp just to confirm what I already knew.Miles will always run back to Sabrina; cheerleader, captain of the girls' basketball team, head of the drama club, member of the student council... In short, the girl who shines in everything she puts her hands on, and the biggest part? The face of the Falcons. She is always at the games front row.H

The Assignment

CALLAWith all due respect,” I say carefully, “I don’t think—”“It’s non-negotiable, Miss Pierce,” he interrupts gently. “This arrangement works to both your benefit. You are in need of additional academic credit this semester, are you not?”Heat floods my face. I nod yes, because while my grades are strong, my extracurriculars are weak. I don’t do clubs. I don’t do sports. I just study and that’s it.“This tutoring position fulfills that requirement,” he continues. “Declining would mean forfeiting the credit.”There it is. A choice without choice. I look at Ryder again and the air feels heavier.My pulse spikes severely until I drag my eyes away from him.“Understood,” I say because I don’t have an option. I really need the credit.That means every day or every other day with Ryder Monroe. The boy who nearly destroyed my best friend. The boy everyone calls dangerous. The boy who is still watching me like he knows something I don’t. Just like that, my entire senior year tilts on its ax

Curious

CALLAI try to ignore the lingering heat of Ryder’s touch from yesterday, but it’s impossible. Every time I take a step, every time I bend to grab a book from my locker, I feel it there, a small, unsettling weight I can’t shake. I tell myself it’s nothing but just a little accident I should get over and focus on getting extra credit. But he doesn’t let me get over it. Not with his eyes finding me across the hallways, and in the quad when I’m not even trying to look at him.Then Miles appears.Of course, he always shows up. Always just when I’m trying to breathe normally.“Hey Cal.” His voice is low and casual, but when I look up, there is that familiar smile underneath the calm. That ridiculously perfected charming look in his eyes he has perfected over the years that is one of the things I fell for. “Morning,” I murmur, keeping my head down, pretending I didn’t just roll my eyes at myself for thinking I could ignore him.“I heard that you started tutoring Monroe,” he says. There is

Always The Villain

CALLAI follow Ryder down the hall, my backpack tight against my shoulder. He doesn’t say a word other than “let's try a different study spot”. He just walks, purposefully and confidently. I keep up, my heart thumping, trying not to let the knot in my stomach betray me.He opens a door at the far end of the building, tucked away where not many students reach. The setting sun slants through the tall windows, dust particles floating lazily in the air. The room is too quiet. It makes me swallow hard, apprehensive.“This is your study spot?” I ask, voice trembling slightly.He glances at me, his expression unreadable. “It helps me focus because there is less distraction. You will see.”I look around at the empty tables and stacked chairs. Isolation hums with tension making my heart kick faster. He kneels by his bag and starts rummaging. My chest tightens. Something about the way he moves, deliberate and intense makes every instinct in me scream to back away.“What are you doing?” I whispe

Ryder The Predator

RYDERMiles’ voice cuts through the quiet of the rink like a blade. I snap my head toward it, and so does she. Miles stands there tall and infuriatingly perfect, his eyes sharp and furious. For a split second, I see exactly why everyone worships him. That aura, that effortless control presses down on me, making my chest tighten. Calla stiffens beside me and I can feel her panic radiating before it even hits her face. She jerks back and pulls away. I taste the sudden sting of rejection, not from her, but from the fact that Miles’ presence alone can make everything I have been trying to reach crumble.She loses her footing. I lunge, trying to catch her, but she yanks away. She hits the ice with a thud that reverberates in my chest. I bite back a curse.“Calla!” I hiss, rushing toward her. My hands hover, ready to help, but she inches away before I can reach her. She glares at me her eyes wide and full of panic.“Don’t... don’t touch me!” Her voice is so harsh echoing across the empty ri

Stop Talking

CALLAMiles doesn’t let go of me immediately. Even after the nurse wraps my ankle and says it’s just a minor strain, even after I insist I can walk, his hand stays at my waist like I might fall apart without him. It’s familiar and comforting. But dangerous.“You scared me back there,” he says quietly.My heart stumbles. “I’m fine. You heard the nurse.”“I know,” he murmurs, but his grip tightens just slightly, like he needs to feel that I am.I glance up at him, and that’s my mistake. He is looking at me the way he used to. Soft, like I matter more than anything else in that moment. It pulls me in instantly, as always.“You shouldn’t be around him,” Miles adds, his tone shifting just enough to break the spell. “I told you, Cal. He is not right.”My chest tightens. “It wasn’t—” I stop myself because if I finish that sentence, I have to tell the truth that I leaned in first. That for one second, I wanted it. “I don’t have a choice, Miles. You know that.”“I don’t like it.” Miles presses
