~Avaโs POV~Charlotte's words still echoed in my head.โSo was it makeup sex?!โI blinked at her like sheโd grown two heads. โWhat is wrong with you?!โShe just laughed, tossing her hair over her shoulder like she'd asked whether the weather was nice. โDonโt act like youโre shocked. You know me.โโYouโre a menace.โโIโm a best friend,โ she corrected with a smug little smirk. โAnd best friends ask.โI sighed, sinking back into the lounge chair, my skin warm from the sun and my nerves still buzzing from... well, everything. โIt wasnโt makeup sex, okay?โCharlotte gave me a suspicious side-eye. โBut you said you had an argument last night.โI chewed on my lip, my voice quieter now. โWe did. But thatโs not why it happened. It wasnโt about fixing something or distracting ourselves. It was... real.โCharlotteโs teasing expression softened instantly. โOkay, that I can respect.โI glanced out at the pool where Logan was being tackled into the water by Tristan for the fifth time in a row.

~Avaโs POV~I stormed down the boardwalk, the heat of the sun nothing compared to the burn inside my chest.What the hell just happened?Who just shows up like that? Ex-girlfriend or not, Serena's presence felt like a glitch in our perfect little bubble and I hated how shaken I felt. I hated that I even doubted Logan, even for a second.โAva!โHis voice.Of course.I picked up my pace, but seconds later, I heard his bare feet slapping against the wood. โAva, wait!โI spun around. โLogan, seriously, donโtโฆโHe didnโt stop. He reached me in three long strides and grabbed my wrist, gently but firmly. โPlease, just stop running for one second.โI yanked my hand back, not because I didnโt want him to hold me but because I wanted him to work for it. โShe said this was your spot.โHe exhaled, looking frustrated. โIt was. Years ago. Before I ever met you. We came here once. Thatโs it.โโAnd now she just magically shows up while weโre here and calls it a coincidence?โโI didnโt ask her to com

~Ava's POV~The beach trip ended with more laughter than scandal, thankfully. Charlotte and Tristan gave us hell all the way back endless teasing, side-eyes, and dramatic sighs whenever Logan and I so much as held hands. But we took it in stride. After all, we had survived an awkward walk-of-shame level encounter. Everything else felt like background noise.When we pulled into the driveway of our apartment complex, Charlotte and Tristan practically jumped out of the car, muttering about never needing to see another couple naked again in their lives. I had snorted into Loganโs shoulder, half hiding my face as he pressed a kiss to my hair and whispered, "Still worth it."Instead of heading to my place, I followed Logan up to his apartment like it was the most natural thing in the world. My place was quiet and neat, but his felt more warmer. Like a place where things happened, where love happened. And maybe I wasnโt ready to sleep alone just yet.

Avaโs POV There were only a few rules I lived by in college. Rule number one? Never fall for a jock. It wasnโt just a personal preference. It was survival, I had to avoid them inorder to do well. I had seen too many smart girls throw away their GPA for a 6'0 something guy with biceps , a quarterback playboy and a bad attendance record. Not me, No way, I'll never do that that how I survived my first year in Westbridge university and I'm not going to break that rule in my second year. Thatโs why, when Logan Carter walked into my History class fifteen minutes late, I didnโt even bother looking up from my laptop. I already knew who he was. everyone knew him, star quarterback, campus heartthrob, a playboy, and the guy who had probably never studied a day in his life. Professor Ambrose mills barely looked at him as he walked to the only empty seat right next to me. I stiffened. Just my luck, I didn't want to sit closer with him. jocks never supposed to be with nerds,not that I'm a n

Avaโs POV I woke up this morning early, I took a shower and decided to go for something casual. I put my jeans and black top with a cardigan. I made myself a simple breakfast just tea and bread, in my situation I could not afford anymore fancy breakfast. I got used to it after my mom died and my dad chased me out of his house because I talked back to his precious wife. She always hated me but the feeling was mutual!. after I was done with my breakfast I exited my one room apartment and started walking to university. the West bridge university was huge it literally took me 30 minutes just to reach the library. Today I have to tutor Logan and now it's 8 am and he's nowhere to be seen. then about fifteen minutes later he strolled in the library like it was some changing locker room. everyone was looking at him in shock. because the famous Logan doesn't do studies. there was something about Logan Carter that screamed trouble or is it because of his confident smirk that he has all th

Avaโs POV I wasnโt sure how I ended up here. One minute, I was closing my laptop, ending another exhausting tutoring session with Logan Carter. The next, I was shaking hands on a deal I wasnโt even sure I wanted to make. I was going against my rules again. "Come to the game, and Iโll help you find a part-time job," he had said, flashing that cocky grin like he already knew Iโd say yes. And somehow, against all logic, I had said yes! stupid!! Now, I was packed into the freezing bleachers of Westbridge Stadium, surrounded by screaming fans, girls with too much make up , and everything I was not a customized regretting every life decision that had led to this moment. "Come on, Ava, at least try to look excited!" my neighbor, Sophie, yelled over the deafening cheers. I forced a tight smile. "Super excited," I deadpanned, gripping my coat tighter around me. I don't know what came over me to accept the dealguess you can call it desperation!! Sophie rolled her eyes. "Youโre impossi

Ava's povI woke up to the rays of sunlight streaming through the balcony doors and the even warmer feeling of Logan's arms wrapped tightly around me. His chest rose and fell against my back, he was sleeping soundly without any worries. I couldโve stayed like that forever.But then before I could dwell on his warmth again I heard a knock.And thenโฆ"Rise and shine, lovebirds!" Charlotteโs obnoxiously chipper voice rang through the door. I almost forgot that we were here with Charlotte and Tristan.I froze. Logan groaned behind me and buried his face into the crook of my neck. โTell me Iโm dreaming,โ he mumbled.Another knock followed. โHope you two got enough sleep last night... though judging by the thumping and oh-my-gods, Iโm gonna guess not.โ Tristan's deep voice rang through the door.My entire body went hot. โOh my God,โ I whispered.

Like all the anger Iโd buried deep decided now was the perfect moment to come clawing out Even though I didn't mean to snap at her.She stiffened beside me, pulling her knees to her chest. She looked so small, so hurt, and I hated myself for putting that look on her face.But instead of apologizing, I made it worse.โWhy do you always have to push?โ I snapped. โWhy canโt you just let things go for once?โHer head whipped toward me, eyes wide. โAre you fucking se

After everything with Natasha, I thought things might spiral and go wrong. That Logan might pull away and decides he didn't want me anymore, or worse, that I might. But somehow, we didn't break apart. We just... solidified. Like the pressure we were experiencing only made us stronger. Like he was fire and I was glass, and instead of shattering, I melted into something whole.I hadnโt expected to find him waiting outside my final class, leaning against the pillar like he belonged there โฆlike he belonged to me.
