Billie pov I tried to calm myself down as we drove home, staying silent the entire time. Even Nate seemed tense; he knew something had happened, but I wasn't in the mood to fill him in on what Alice had said. Honestly, I didn't care whether she liked him or not, but she shouldn’t have overstepped her bounds. I didn't have any feelings for Nate, and I wasn't sure I ever would. Just because he had been a nice guy and friendly with me for a few days didn't mean anything significant. It felt like he was after something, and I didn’t think I had whatever it was. I looked at myself. If he wanted a girl to hook up with, he could have gone for someone attractive like Alice. So why come to me? I couldn't stop wondering what his mission was, and why he was trying so hard to befriend me. He knew I was overweight, yet he still chose to hang out with me and defended me when someone insulted me. I knew he was nice and a good person, and I could see he was a better guy than John. John was crazy

Billie POV Traveling to Grandma's place kept me under control. It was a holiday I thought would never happen. I found out that I was the only one Grandma had invited; she left Blake out of it. I know everyone is aware that Grandma has the least spot for Blake. She always says he takes after Daddy, especially when she first met him years ago the day he came home with my mom. He was arrogant and always looked down on people, though I hadn't seen Dad act that way myself. However, he usually sides with Blake whenever we fight, and I can't be shocked because Blake is his favorite, and looks like him. I knew I had to be gone for Christmas, but I couldn't stop thinking about leaving Ann alone, even though she said her parents would come to spend the holiday at her aunt's place. Still, she ranted about my trip to Grandma's when I told her. "It's just for a few weeks," I said. But she insisted on going with me, even though her parents were coming too. I had to turn her down. I needed to go

John POV I just can't stop wandering. Is that guy I mean Nate in love with Billie or he is just playing her just like I had done? It seems confusing. He is handsome every girl demanded him since he had arrived at our school just a few days ago, he had been somehow interested in Billie from the first day after he had saved her from Blake in the bathroom. He had been glued to her since then always at her side and every time I wished to knock the air off Billie and make her feel bad he was always there helping her out and always saying he was her friend Which isn't normal, a normal guy wouldn't be nice to Billie out of the blue. She is fat, with an ugly birthmark that makes her look ugly that she is herself. And she is somehow irritating as Blake said always eating nonstop and visiting the toilet many times. I just can't see why Nate is gluing to her. Except he wants something. Maybe he also heard how I had used her for my grade and dumped her, maybe he is also trying the same thing.

Ann POV “Oh no,” I muttered as I scrolled through my laptop, desperately looking for something to add to my science test. I had been scrolling for hours without finding anything useful. All I kept seeing were some ridiculous solutions that would definitely earn me an F if I wasn’t careful. I leaned back in my chair, wishing Billie were here. I sighed; if she were here, I knew she could solve this problem. She was a genius. A total genius, even though she didn't focus on science — I bet she could find the answer in a minute if she just took a quick look. I admired her intelligence; she’s incredibly smart and always seems to know the solution before anyone finishes asking the question. Unfortunately, John took advantage of her talent. He used her to get an A in English, and once he achieved that, he turned his back on her. He never really loved her. I wished I were just as brilliant as her — then I wouldn't be racking my brain over this stupid science test. At least there’s something

Billie POV It had been two days since the website application. Ann had insisted that I sign in right away, as it was the only option. I didn’t want to, but she assured me this would be different. I had tried similar things in the past, only to find they were all scams. Despite my reluctance, Ann's reassurances gave me some hope. I asked her if she knew anyone who had successfully used the site, but she replied no, claiming she just felt confident it would work. “It’s going to work,” she said, and that was a bit overwhelming. She spent the entire day at my house, helping me take the pictures needed for the application. Most of her time was spent doing my hair and dressing me in clothes that felt awkward and out of place. Balek walked in on us at one point and mocked my appearance when she saw me in the big gown. That night, I barely slept as I kept checking the website. What made Ann feel so confident? I wondered as I browsed the site. All I saw were older men and women who looke

Nate POV “No, I can’t, Billie. I can’t do that. You’re a precious person to me,” I said to her and yes she is, she might not know it but she is the one friend have liked since I came in here. Though it doesn't seem like it. “What do you mean, Nate?” she asked her eyes confused. But I had to say it now, whether it was going to hurt her it was the only way she could be free. I had been distant from Billie the entire morning and I hated myself for it. It was only the way for her not to be bullied. I had not spoken to her or even gone near her but now I just couldn't control myself as I had dragged her in her. I know she was also confused. About me being distant. But I had to and now I had to tell her. “Billie, I’m sorry for what I’m about to do… I—” Suddenly, the door opened, and John stepped in with Blake by his side, staring at us. Blake smiled mischievously. “So, what are you going to say, Nate? What are you hiding?” What the hell are they doing here? I thought. I didn't remem

Billie POV She is nothing to me, Nate had said. I slowly walked toward the cafeteria, only to find an anxious Ann waiting for me, her worried eyes searching my face. “What the hell happened, Billie? I saw John and Blake head in after you and Nate, and I was worried, but I just couldn't do anything,” she exclaimed. If it had been a minute earlier, she would have seen the tear stains on my face, but I had wiped them away on my way there. “It’s okay,” I said to Ann. But I knew that if I didn’t tell her what happened in the soccer changing room, things would only get worse. So, I shared everything with her as we walked back to class. I had refused to eat; not because I was angry, but simply because I didn’t feel like it. Ann looked at me with a shocked expression. “What the hell did Nate do?” she gritted her teeth. I knew she would be angry, and I figured it was best to tell her now so I could find a way to deal with it. I had known this from the start. I realized Nate would be like

Nate POV What is Billie doing here? I thought she said she didn't like going to school parties. What the hell is happening.?. I thought as I saw a black-haired boy with her he was a few inches taller than her and he had small eyes. He had his hand around Billie as he walked her into the room. He looked like someone I had seen then Billie's friend walked in beside them. There I could see the resemblance they both shared. Though it was just a little you could tell that Ann and the boy who had his hand around Billie were connected. So I guess he pretended to be her partner and followed her. But what was all this Billie isn't like this, she declined the day I asked her but now she is walking in here another male having his hand around her. I shuddered. I wanted to go and talk to her to reason with her, I wanted to tell her why I said all those things a few days back, though it was long and I had never gone to her to meet her. But I felt guilty and now all I wanted was to go up to her a

Billie POV As I stood there, I could already feel the sweat forming on my brow, and the tall man walking towards me only intensified my discomfort. He was handsome with perfectly defined muscles, a slight mustache, and tousled hair. His physique reminded me of Nate's, but Nate was undeniably more attractive.The man wore a long leather jacket and black trousers, and his smile was striking, giving him a model-like appearance. I couldn't help but wonder, Who is this man? When he reached me, he asked, “Are you looking for someone?” His voice was deep and directed at me with an assertive tone. Though I didn’t know him, being lost in the middle of nowhere and the midst of a race, I felt I had no choice but to respond. Perhaps he could help me find the person I was looking for.“Yeah, have you seen a girl who looks like me, but…” I gestured with my hand to indicate my size for him to see. His eyes widened as if he hadn’t noticed my weight before. Then he smirked. “Much larger than you, ri
choosing between Him or My Ex 32: Challenge
Billie POV The next few days were awful. I had to stick to a strict diet, training, and exercise regimen. I had never pushed myself like this before, but I knew that I would eventually start seeing results. However, the other contestants were making it difficult for me. They hurled insults that were much more painful than the names I had been called at home. Thankfully, Betty was the only one by my side. She stayed quiet whenever I was attacked, but she stuck by me whenever I was being bullied. I couldn't blame her; she was scared and had faced many challenges like mine, but she hadn't overcome them yet. As for me, I still had my battles to fight, and it took me some time to start making progress.Savannah, our instructor, was kind and beautiful, but she also had her backstory, just like the rest of us. She was once chubby like us, and after undergoing this training, she chose to become a teacher and help others. I didn't think I would follow the same path, especially since Savannah

Betty POV The moment she got thrown on the floor, I couldn't take it anymore. Of course, I had heard about her, but over the last few days that she had been here, I had gotten to know her. She was mistreated and tossed aside, just like I had been, like all of us here who were bullied by our peers because of our weight. I had been through hell and back; my friends abandoned me, my best friend did too, and even our neighbors stopped talking to me. I felt all alone.Before the break, I didn't even go to school; I was used to sitting at home. My mom tried to convince me to speak with the teachers about the bullying I faced from my classmates, but I stopped her. I didn’t want that because I knew it would only double the bullying. My mom didn’t understand me; no one in my family did, except for Grandma McCarthy. She was the only one who truly got it. She told me that her grandchildren were also like me. Though they were twins, one was the epitome of beauty while the other was the big, fat,

Billie POV I gulped down my toast and drank my coffee. The rich aroma hit me like it was brand new. This was the most delicious coffee I had tasted in a while. It had been two days since I arrived in Miami, and I could honestly say everything was going well. The view from my grandmother's porch was beautiful, and the atmosphere was vibrant. For once, I understood how it felt when someone decided to change their environment. Perhaps this was what my mom was afraid of—me not coming back home. But I still had unfinished business back home. I mean, unfinished business—only I understood, and I carried that weight in my stomach. It was going to be tough.In the past two days, I had tried calling Ann, but my calls wouldn’t go through. I kept getting her voicemail, and it seemed she wasn't checking it. I wondered what had happened. It was strange; I felt like I must have done something wrong, or maybe she lost her phone. But I couldn't think of anything I had done. Maybe she was just busy, I

Billie POV Days passed quickly, and before I knew it, I was on my way to Miami. As I stepped off the plane and into Miami International Airport, the humid air enveloped me like a warm hug. The sounds of salsa music and lively chatter filled my ears, a stark contrast to the quiet, small-town life I was used to. Back home, the airport is a tiny terminal with a handful of gates and a view of cornfields. Miami's airport, on the other hand, is a bustling hub with sleek glass walls, tropical plants, and people from all walks of life rushing to their next destinations. The vibrant atmosphere was infectious, and I felt a thrill of excitement as I navigated through the crowded concourse. Everything about this place exuded energy and excitement—so different from my quiet rural town.We took a cab to Lane, where Grandma lives. It had been years since I had visited, and I couldn't remember much, but I could say Miami was the biggest city I had ever been to. Unlike my small town, Miami had tall s

Ann POV “Did you tell her?” Her voice echoed from the other end of the room. I shook my head. “No, I think she's too caught up in her plans to go to Miami,” I replied, shooting a look at the blonde girl.“Why did you have to approach her? You caused all this,” I added.“What, caused?” Valentine laughed. “That I warned her about the threats surrounding her?”“This was none of your concern. And what about him? Why does he care for her as if she owes him something? Or is she just bait? You think I don't know what he’s planning?” I growled at her, but she merely chuckled.“Oh, you see, Mrs. Ann, or whatever you call yourself, Billie needs help, and that’s what I provided—help. I also prepared a place for her. Do you like that she was threatened by her friends and drugged at the party? Do you like that?” I flinched at the mention of being drugged. She knew exactly what would rile me up or make me go silent, but I wouldn’t give her the satisfaction.“She is my friend. Stay away from her.

Billie POV “What?” The trail of Anna’s hair hung down her neck. “You are traveling with your grandma?” I nodded. She was just processing the information, so I could see she was shocked. I wasn’t surprised, but it was sudden for me, and I hadn’t had time to tell her last night since she was with me at the hospital, and I could bet she was tired. When I finally told her, she was both shocked and happy. “As happy as I am, I’m also sad,” she said. “It’s going to be boring without you.” I understood. I would also miss her; I’d be gone for three months. I was wondering how I would cope without her. Truthfully, Anna had always kept me company since the time I met her; she was a good friend, and I could count on her. I wanted to tell her about MN and Valentine. I didn’t want to hide anything from her—she was the only one on my side. She really knew me. So, I decided to share. “Look, Anna, I have to tell you something.” I said, and she turned to face me with a serious look, studying m
choosing between Him or My Ex chapter 26: Valentine
Billie POV That was it, I thought as I lay on my bed, playing with my phone. I could tell Mom was disappointed; from the way she looked and sounded, it was clear she was sad about me leaving. I never knew she had this emotional side to her. She had always been distant, but unlike my dad, she paid little attention to me. Still, that didn’t erase the past. Blake was always the favorite. Anyway, that was behind me; it had been last night since the conversation with Mom and Grandma, and I could tell they hadn’t discussed it further.Grandma was given the guest room downstairs, where she always preferred to stay, complaining about having to go up and down the house. She hated exercise. They had finally given her approval—not that she needed it anyway—to take me away.So, it was just a day before I was set to spend the holiday with Grandma in Miami, and I don’t know why, but I could feel excitement stirring inside me. It was the kind of feeling I hadn’t experienced in a long time.Ann was

Billie POV I slowly turned over in my bed as the night dragged on. The memories of the previous evening flooded my mind, especially Grandma's sudden appearance. She was never one to show up somewhere without a reason, and her visit this time was because of MN. Although I thought I had lost contact with him, it seemed he had been messaging my grandma. The chat I had seen indicated they had been in touch for a while, but I didn’t know much beyond that. It appeared he had been keeping tabs on everything I did and was aware of what was happening in my life. However, I didn’t feel anyone suspicious around me or that I was being monitored. Everyone around me just went about their daily routine of bullying me, and Ann being who she was, so how could it be so easy for someone to pry into my life and know about the incident from yesterday? He even knew about that.I sighed as I tried to recall all the new faces I had seen, but there were none. I was the only one who brought Kane with me as my
