Chapter 1
Aiden’s words hit me like a bolt of lightning from a clear sky, leaving me completely defenseless.
My mind went blank.
Despite the sweltering summer afternoon, I felt ice cold all over.
The conversation in the classroom continued. His friends fell silent for a moment before someone spoke
again.
“Classic Aiden, using the perfect girl as practice.”
“So what, she’s basically like his personal plaything?”
Aiden laughed carelessly. “Come on guys, it’s not like she didn’t enjoy it.”
Someone quickly agreed. “True that. Though she is kind of skinny compared to Madison’s curves…”
Aiden threw a textbook at him, cutting him off mid–sentence. “Look, we were both caught up in the moment. And she seemed pretty… eager.”
The guys exchanged knowing looks and started teasing him.
“Who knew Little Miss Perfect was so thirsty?”
“Can’t blame her – our boy Aiden’s got game. Might as well take what’s offered.”
“After pining after you for so many years, bet she couldn’t wait to get her hands on you.”
The laughter in the room grew louder.
I bit my lip hard, my hands clenched into fists.
It took everything I had just to stay standing outside that classroom door.
Footsteps echoed from the end of the hallway.
I snapped back to reality and fled, stumbling into a bathroom stall to hide.
