Eli's POVKassidy was reluctant to get out of the car at first, but once her feet hit the sand, I could see her fighting her smile. She looked out at the ocean and I watched her shoulders relax, watched the tension drain out of her face. It was like she was seeing something she had forgotten existed before now.We started walking along the shoreline without any real destination. The area around Lake Michigan was quiet and mostly empty, just the sound of waves and the occasional seagull screaming about something. I kept my hands in my pockets and tried not to look at her too much, but it was hard.Despite the hair band that held it in place, her long dark hair was blowing around her face in the wind, strands getting tangled and stuck to her lips. The flowery blue dress she was wearing flapped against her legs, and the sun was hitting her skin, tanning her slowly, making her glow in a way that was making my heart flutter in my chest. She looked so beautiful it was painful to look at her

Kassidy’s POVThe mystery man walked out before I could even understand what had just happened. He walked through the heavy bathroom door without looking back, his footsteps fading rapidly down the carpeted hallway. My brain felt entirely scrambled, frozen in place as I stared in shock at Nova. She was way too calm for what I just witnessed. There was no panic on her face, no frantic reaching for excuses, and no sign of guilt whatsoever. Instead, she pushed past me to go to the mirrors, her shoulder brushing mine as if I were nothing more than a minor inconvenience in her way.I watched her through the glass as she unzipped her small purse. She pulled out a tube of lip gloss, twisted it open, and meticulously fixed her lipstick. She didn't skip a beat, smoothing the color over her lips and patting down her hair, fixing her makeup until every single strand was back in its proper place. Once she was completely satisfied with her reflection, she turned to face me directly."What you saw

Kassidy’s POV Ever since Nova returned to the house, she became extra clingy with Eli. It was like she was trying to plaster herself to his side to erase whatever had happened, and she was always one step behind him, even in school. If he walked into the kitchen, she was right there touching his shoulder. If he was walking across campus, she was anchoring herself to his arm. I watched it all from a distance, keeping my mouth shut, but the hypocrisy of it made my stomach turn every single day.Eli tried talking to me a few days later, but I ignored him entirely. I didn't want to be included in their drama anymore, because holding Nova's secret while remembering the heat of Eli's mouth on that beach was already tearing me apart.We were in the living room on a Thursday evening, trying to catch up on a show together with the rest of the housemates. Marcus and Devon were arguing about the remote, but when they went to the kitchen to grab snacks, Eli seized that moment. He leaned across t

Kassidy's POVIt wasn't until a few minutes into the drive that I couldn’t help but notice the tension between Marcus and Celeste. It was impossible to ignore in the confined space of the sedan. Marcus's eyes constantly flicked toward her, his posture stiff as he drove, but Celeste kept giving him the cold shoulder. She remained pressed against the passenger door, staring out the window as if the passing telephone poles were the most interesting things in the world."You should slow down through this intersection, Marcus," Celeste pointed out to Marcus without looking at him. "The cops love to hide behind that billboard. So, chill, okay?"Marcus glanced over at her, with an amused smile on his face. "I know how to drive through my own neighborhood, Cel. I’ve been doing it for three years.""Clearly not well enough, considering how hard you hit that pothole back there," she replied, her voice dropping into a flat, dismissive drone."I was trying to get us away from the library plaza q
