Anna’s POVI spent ten whole minutes standing in front of my bedroom mirror, smoothing down the skirt of my emerald green sundress. It had a sweetheart neckline, delicate little straps, and a skirt that flared out just enough when I walked.I tied a matching green satin ribbon into my hair, holding back my soft waves, and slipped on a pair of comfortable white sandals. For the first time in weeks, my chest felt completely light. Brenna was downstairs in her room keeping her mouth shut, the house was quiet, and the sun was shining brightly outside.I grabbed my white purse, walked down the stairs, and stepped out onto the front porch.At the exact same second, the front door of the East Lodge opened across the lawn.Jeremy stepped out onto his porch, and my heart completely flipped over in my chest. He was wearing a dark crimson WSU quarterback polo that hugged his broad chest and massive shoulders perfectly, paired with fitted dark jeans and clean white sneakers. His dark hair was nea

Anna’s POVThe silence in the living room was so thick you could hear the faint hum of the refrigerator.Jeremy’s hands slowly slipped off my waist. He stared at Brenna like he was looking at a ghost. His eyes darted from the chocolate lowlights framing her cheeks to the exact blonde highlights sweeping over her shoulders—the exact color pattern I had spent three hours getting done at the salon back home before we left for college."You..." Jeremy whispered, his voice dangerously low. "You dyed your hair.""It was getting so dull!" Brenna said, waving a hand in the air like it was no big deal. "I thought a change would be fun for the new semester.""A change?!" I shrieked, the blood roaring in my ears so loud my temples throbbed. "You didn't just get a change! You copied my exact hair, Brenna! The exact same color, the exact same cut, the exact same style!""So what if I did?" Brenna sneered, dropping her sweet, innocent act in a split second. She crossed her arms over her black silk

Anna’s POVI pushed past a group of football players near the juice bar, my chest tight as I marched straight up to where Lillian Mark was standing way too close to my boyfriend."I'm paying," Lillian repeated with a sweet, smoky purr, leaning directly into Jeremy’s personal space. "What do you say, Jeremy?"Jeremy didn't hesitate. He took another step backward, his eyes flicking over her dark hair to meet mine the exact second I stopped right beside them."I'm going to have to pass," Jeremy said clearly, his deep voice carrying right across the quiet lobby floor. "Sorry, Lillian, but I have a girlfriend. And she's standing right here."He reached out without looking, his long fingers immediately wrapping tightly around mine, pulling me flush against his side. I felt a sudden, fierce surge of pride, locking my chin up and looking straight at Lillian with a quiet, confident smile.Lillian’s icy-blue eyes flicked to my face, her glossy red lips pressing into a sharp, tight line. But bef

Anna’s POV"Not at all!" Lillian gasped, her face turning bright red as she scrambled out of the bed, her hands shaking as she smoothed down her wrinkled athletic top. "I... I swear I didn't mean anything like that! I was just completely wasted, Anna. I don't even remember half of last night!"I kept my arms folded, watching her panic with a cool, unbothered expression. "Right.""I am so, so sorry for getting drunk and bothering you guys," Lillian stammered, grabbing her expensive designer purse off the desk chair and sliding into her shoes. "Seriously. Thank you for letting me stay here and not leaving me at the club. I'm going to get out of your hair right now.""I'll walk you out," I said calmly.I led her out of the bedroom and into the hallway. Standing in the middle of the living room were Jeremy and Noah.The second I saw Jeremy, a tiny, secret smile touched the inside of my heart. Normally, whenever Jeremy was lounging around the house, he walked around completely shirtless, s

Anna’s POVJeremy didn't waste a single second. He scooped me up into his arms, my legs automatically wrapping around his waist as he carried me straight into the master bathroom."Jeremy, the water—" I started, but my sentence was cut off when he hit the shower dial with his elbow, turning the hot water on full blast.Steam immediately filled the glass enclosure as he stepped under the spray with me still locked tightly against him. The warm water cascaded over us, soaking my hair instantly and washing away the slick evidence of our mess."I promised, didn't I?" he growled against my ear, sliding his large hands down my back to lift me higher against the wet tile wall."You're crazy," I gasped, resting my forehead against his wet shoulder while the steam swirled around us. "We're going to use up all the hot water.""I don't care," Jeremy murmured, his mouth finding mine under the shower stream. "You're all mine today, Anna. Every single inch.""Jeremy... oh god," I whimpered as he gu
