CHAPTER EIGHTY ONE

ADAM:The cafeteria chatter was always its own chaotic soundtrack—students laughing, shouting, and ranting about whatever assignments were due next or how Coach Henderson had us running around the field like madmen since the match was in three months time. Today was no different."Man, I can't believe that Alex decided to take Blake's side," Cole muttered, stuffing his hands deep into his hoodie pockets. His shoulders were hunched forward, and his face was twisted up in a mixture of disbelief and frustration.I shot him a side-eye, already knowing exactly what, or rather who, he was talking about."You know that you could have brought it up during lunch," I said and he shrugged "I couldn't Adam, we were planning her birthday, I couldn't just ruin the mood" Cole grumbled, kicking at a stray rock on the sidewalk. "Dude just swoops in, all smooth-like, and now she's suddenly hanging out with him? What the hell."Cole was pissed—understandably so. Everyone in the school knew that Alex

CHAPTER EIGHTY-TWO

ADAM:"You gonna talk to her?" I asked, breaking the brief silence.Cole didn’t turn around, but I saw his reflection in the side mirror as he shrugged. "Yeah. I think I have to. I’m not gonna let Blake mess with my head anymore."Shawn, sitting beside me, nodded in approval. "Good. The longer you let it stew, the worse it’ll get.""Yeah, you’re right," Cole admitted. "I’m just gonna be honest with her. If she’s not into me anymore, then I guess... I’ll deal with it.""She’s into you, man," I reassured him. "Don’t let Blake’s charm distract you from that."Cole let out a deep breath, and for a moment, I could see the uncertainty in his eyes. He wasn’t a guy who liked to feel vulnerable. None of us were. But relationships had a way of messing with your head in ways that even football couldn’t.We pulled up to the pizza place a few minutes later, the neon "OPEN" sign flickering above the door like it was on its last leg. Kelvin parked the car, and we all piled out, the smell of cheese,

CHAPTER EIGHTY THREE

COLECurt and I had been sitting in my car for what felt like forever. My hands gripped the steering wheel so tight my knuckles turned white, and I could feel the tension buzzing through my whole body like a live wire. My mind was racing, thoughts colliding with each other like a chaotic storm. Blake. Alex. Dinner. Just the two of them.I turned to Curt, who sat in the passenger seat, cool as ever, scrolling through his phone like we weren’t on the verge of something major. I didn’t get how he could be so calm, so collected, while my stomach was in knots.“I’m telling you, man,” I said, my voice hard and tight, “Blake’s always had a thing for her. I could see it. Every time he’s around Alex, the way he looks at her. And now, dinner? Just the two of them? That’s not nothing. That’s not just friends.”Curt glanced up at me, his eyebrows raised, but his tone was steady, like he was talking me off a ledge. “Cole, you’re overthinking this. You don’t know if it was just the two of them. May

CHAPTER EIGHTY FOUR

ELIZABETH:Cheryl and I walked into the house, our footsteps echoing through the familiar hallway. It felt like home, but there was always a different energy when Cheryl was with me. She had a way of brightening a room with just her presence, and today was no different—except for the obvious worry plastered on her face.The moment we stepped inside, Cheryl spotted her brother, Adam, sitting on the couch with his hand wrapped in a makeshift bandage. Her eyes widened, and she rushed towards him in a panic. I followed behind her, watching the way she hovered over him, concern radiating from her.“Adam, what the hell happened?” she practically shrieked, kneeling in front of him to grab his injured hand. I could see the tension in her shoulders, the way her hands shook as she inspected the bandage. She was trying to keep it together, but her voice wavered, betraying her emotions. “You have to be more careful! You’re all I’ve got... I can’t lose you.”I could hear the tears in her voice, se

CHAPTER EIGHTY FIVE

ELIZABETH:Cheryl had just offered to give me a ride home, insisting that it wasn’t a problem since she had some errands to run at the mall anyway. I wasn’t sure if I really wanted to accept her offer. I had thought about just taking a cab home, enjoying a little quiet time by myself after the chaos of the day, but Cheryl’s enthusiasm was hard to turn down.“Come on, Liz. It'll be quicker this way, and I have to pick up a few things for Alex's birthday tomorrow,” she said with a grin, her eyes sparkling in the early evening light. I wasn’t in the mood to argue, especially since we’d all be hanging out again tomorrow for Alex’s birthday. "Alright, Cheryl," I said, trying to muster some cheer in my voice. "If you're sure it's no trouble.""None at all," she replied, waving me off as if the thought of it being any inconvenience was absurd.We piled into her car, and the moment the doors closed, the silence enveloped us. Cheryl turned the radio on low, just background noise to fill the g

CHAPTER EIGHTY SIX

ELIZABETH The next morning, the smell of toast and fresh coffee gently nudged me awake. I lay in bed for a moment, staring at the ceiling, trying to shake off the fog of sleep. My body was heavy, reluctant to move, but today was Alex's birthday, and I couldn’t afford to drag my feet. I had a whole day ahead of me, starting with breakfast and ending with birthday celebrations and a mall trip with Alex and Cheryl.I finally pushed the covers back and slipped out of bed, my feet cold on the hardwood floor. As I padded down the hallway toward the kitchen, I heard my mom talking softly on the phone again. She was always handling some business deal or another, but today her voice had a lighter tone, like she was wrapping things up for the morning. When I entered the kitchen, she glanced up at me and smiled, hanging up the phone with a click. “Good morning, sweetheart. You’re up just in time. Breakfast’s ready.”I sat down at the table, blinking blearily as she slid a plate of toast and sc

CHAPTER EIGHTY SEVEN

ELIZABETH:As I walked into the cafeteria after my math class, I could hear the hum of chatter and the clatter of trays against tables. My stomach grumbled, reminding me that I hadn’t eaten since breakfast, and I quickened my pace toward the table where my friends were already gathered.The smell of food wafted through the air, but I was more focused on reaching my group. Alex waved at me from across the room, a grin on her face as she gestured for me to hurry up. I smiled back, weaving through the crowd with my tray in hand. My mind was already in the conversation I knew was waiting for me. We’d all been planning a surprise birthday party for Alex that would hold tonight. As I neared the table, something interrupted my thoughts. A figure stepped in front of me, cutting off my path. I looked up to see a guy I vaguely recognized from a class or two—tall, with a cocky smirk that immediately set off warning bells in my head. I stopped short, feeling an immediate tension settle in the

CHAPTER EIGHTY EIGHT

ELIZABETH:After school, the buzz of excitement was still running through me as Cheryl, Alex, Raphael, and I headed to the mall. Cheryl was walking beside me, practically bouncing with energy, while Alex strolled a little ahead, oblivious to the secret we were all holding onto. Raphael was at the back, cool as ever, hands shoved into his pockets, his expression unreadable.We were throwing a surprise costume-themed birthday party for Alex tonight, and she had absolutely no idea. The plan had been in the works for weeks—Cheryl, Adam, the boys and I had been coordinating behind the scenes, planning everything down to the smallest details. But we hadn’t breathed a word to Alex. She thought we were just having a simple sleepover at her place to celebrate her birthday. Little did she know, it was going to be much more than that.As we entered the mall, People were bustling around, couples holding hands, families with their kids in tow, teenagers hanging out in groups like us. I felt a litt

CHAPTER EIGHTY NINE

ELIZABETH:The night air was electric with anticipation as I slipped into my costume, a stunning batwoman outfit that hugged my curves just right. I couldn’t help but admire myself in the mirror, the way the black fabric shimmered under the dim light, making me feel both fierce and glamorous. Beside me, my best friend Cheryl was putting the final touches on her Cleopatra costume. The golden accents of her outfit sparkled like sunlight, and her dramatic eye makeup only added to the regal vibe she radiated.“Are you ready for this?” I asked, smoothing the fabric down as I turned to her.“Born ready,” she replied with a smirk, adjusting her headdress. “Just wait until everyone sees us.”As much as I loved the excitement of dressing up, I was even more thrilled about the birthday girl, Alex. She had no idea what we had planned for her costume party, and that made it all the more special. I wanted this night to be perfect for her, and I was determined to do my part. “Okay, I’ll go get the

CHAPTER NINETY

ELIZABETH:Today was Saturday, and after the craziness of last night’s party, it was a relief to know I’d be spending the day with just Alex and Cheryl. No boys, no costumes, just a relaxing day filled with ice cream, gossip, and the kind of easy laughter that always seemed to flow effortlessly between us.I slipped into a casual outfit—denim shorts and a loose white top—before tying my hair up in a messy bun. The house was quiet this morning, the only sound of the soft hum of my mother in the kitchen. I could already smell the coffee she was brewing, and for a second, I debated running downstairs for a quick cup.Just as I was finishing up, my phone buzzed with a message from Alex. *"On my way! Be there in five :)"* I smiled to myself, excitement bubbling up as I thought about spending the day with my two best friends. Last night had been amazing—seeing Alex’s reaction to her surprise party, the laughter, the dancing—but it had also been chaotic, with the boys there and everyone in
