Fenella’s POV"Amy, let me introduce you. His name is Clark Thomson; just call him Clark. He was always the number one in chemistry class and some of our other classes. Clark, this is Amy," I said besides Clark."Oh no, not always. There were still Jason and Matt, who were more accomplished than me." Clark blushed and offered his hand. "Hi, Amy," he said."Amy." She only waved her hand, reluctant to shake his hand.Amy observed Clark from head to toe. Clark's curly hair was reddish-brown. He wore small, round-shaped glasses that looked smaller than his large, round face. His skin was pinkish-white and sweaty. He was chubby and tall, and his posture was almost always slouched, as if Clark was too aware of his size."What extracurricular activities do you do?" Amy asked."I'm on the Lab Rat team," Clark said excitedly. "We're going to compete in a science competition next month.""Okay, that's enough." Amy raised her hand to cut off Clark's speech."Alright, see you later, Clark. I'll c
Winning My Ex-Crush 105: Friend or Foe
Fenella’s POVI sat leaning back on the couch while repeatedly taking deep breaths. We gathered again in the living room that night. I thought we would reflect on our mistakes, share stories about how frightening the teachers' interrogations were, and express concern about the case spreading to our parents.Turns out, not.Amy paced back and forth on the coat rack with Sophie, Meg, and Nicole. They were more focused on what they would wear to the end-of-year dance party on Saturday night than on thinking about our fate at school. Everyone seemed calm and cheerful, except for me."I've decided to wear this pink dress. What do you think? It looks more suitable for me, right?" Amy twirled her body so that the short satin skirt she was wearing would flutter in the wind."Yeah, I think it suits you. I'll stick to wearing black," Sophie said, smoothing out her tight black dress at her slender waist."Isn't that too tight? It'll be hard to dance in such a tight dress," Nicole said, waving th

Fenella’s POVThe end of the school year had arrived. Starting this Sunday, we will all return to our respective homes for the summer vacation. Of course, all the kids were excited about it, especially with the end-of-year dance party before we left. Everyone was enthusiastic, except for me.Without wearing my cheerleader uniform, I sat with my chin in hand. Today, I didn’t feel like doing anything, so I only sat still in the bleachers of the baseball field. I watched the last baseball team practice of the school year. After this, Laird would be attending a baseball camp throughout the summer.I watched until the end. He knew I was watching him, and he ran over to me immediately after the practice ended."Are you free right now?" He asked me as he sat down next to me."Yeah, you could say that." I nodded wearily.We sat in silence as I regretted many things in my mind. He was understanding enough to let me sit silently on the sidelines of the field whenever I was feeling down.He woul
Winning My Ex-Crush 107: The Senior Year
Fenella’s POVEnd year of 12th grade...Graduation is one step away! I still remember vividly the end-of-year dance party during 10th grade. The pattern hadn’t changed by the end-of-year party in 11th grade either.Back then, I had deliberately gone home early with Laird. The dance party felt dull without him as my partner. Plus, Amy had insisted that I wear an ugly dress again, not wanting to be outdone by me.Even now, Amy is still chasing after Laird. She tries various methods to win his attention. Amy seems relentless in her pursuit. She began by attending all his classes, participating in the selection process for the baseball team’s assistant manager (though her lack of focus led to her rejection), and, in the most extreme case, taking over my role as the team leader for baseball games.I somewhat understood Amy’s actions. She was driven by her own ego; she doesn't even truly like him. She couldn’t accept the fact that Laird ignored her, feeling challenged instead.If I were to
Winning My Ex-Crush 108: Fever
Fenella’s POV"In summary, each participant would share a story. Then other students had to guess whether the story was true or false. If they guessed wrong, the participant would receive some money. If their guess was correct, the contestant would get nothing.""Oh..." My mouth rounded, and I nodded in understanding."The money comes from voting tickets that can be bought by the students. Because it's covered up under the guise of a quiz show, the faculty just agreed to that crazy idea.""Imagine that if a student votes incorrectly, half of the money goes to the contestant and half to the committee. If a student makes a correct guess, they will receive twice as much voting money back. It's like gambling, right?" Skye grumbled irritably."I think it's more like a game for rich people who just want to find ways to waste money," I said, joining in the annoyance."That's why I said the committee head this year is really bad. They've got many sponsors, but they still want to squeeze the s
Winning My Ex-Crush 109: Something Urgent
Fenella’s POV"Only fools like you dare to open the curtain. Other kids are smart enough not to disturb us."I was so weak and helpless. Coupled with my body's weakness from a fever, I could only grimace. My back ached from the pressure of my backpack's contents pressed between my body and the wall."Stop it, Amy. You're hurting me." Both of my hands gripped Amy's wrists as hard as I could. I tried to release her grip on me, but Amy was stronger."Why? Do you feel like you can't be hurt when you've already hurt me? Do I not know you're a two-faced traitor? You act like you support me, but you always undermine me in front of Laird."Amy hissed right next to my face. I could even feel her breath in my ears, and I shivered because of it."I despise losers like you. I hate traitors like you. You make me sick!"Amy pushed me again until I staggered back to the wall. My breath felt heavy, and my ears were ringing after hearing Amy's threats. I tried to stand as straight as possible, even th
Winning My Ex-Crush 110: Plan Ahead
Fenella’s POVThe doctor then drove us back to the dorm using an ambulance without sirens. He dropped us off in front of my dormitory. After expressing many thanks, I entered the house with limp steps supported by Laird.The house was still quiet. The front lights were still off, and the door was still locked. It seemed like Amy and the other girls had gone out for dinner as usual."Where did you fall?" Laird asked after helping me sit on the edge of the bed."Uh, that, um... I fell on the stairs. I was feeling very weak earlier, and I accidentally slipped in a puddle of water." There was a momentary pause as I tried to come up with an excuse to lie."You're not good at acting; you know that, right?" He snorted with his usual crooked smile."I'm serious," I insisted, although I felt my heart pounding faster.He sighed heavily and ignored me. He seemed to know but didn't press the matter anymore. Suddenly, the doorbell rang, and he immediately went out to open the door.I opened my bag
Winning My Ex-Crush 111: Let's Go to Prom!
Fenella’s POVThe doorbell rang, and I immediately ran out to open the door. Laird stood before me in a dark gray tuxedo, matching gray pants, black shoes, and a cream-colored tie. He slicked back his dark blonde hair. He carried a large bouquet of roses for me, like a prince.Good gracious Lord! He was so handsome!"Hi, Laird!" With a rapidly beating heart, I grinned widely at him."Hi, wow, Fenella." Laird smiled, and he gazed at me for a long moment. Was he captivated? Maybe."Your blonde hair is back." He spoke with a broad smile and fixed his gaze on my face."Yeah, I wanted to look a little different than before." I blushed shyly."It suits you so well. Just like the Fenella I used to know in a more mature version." He chuckled, and my face grew warmer with embarrassment."Oh, this is for you." He handed me the bouquet of roses."Oh, my goodness, Laird. It's so beautiful. Thank you." I took the bouquet with a wide smile and examined each pink-white petal."You're prettier than t
