Lori

I thought about Lucas all night long.

I could not stop thinking about him while I got off the bed and prepared for my morning lectures.

Even in class, my mind was gone. The lecturer talked and talked but I did not hear a single word. All I could think about was Lucas’s touch. His lips were like real magic on my skin. They put a bright fire inside me. And it was a very hot fire.

At some point, I had to shake him off my mind. My whole day was not going to waste just because I was thinkin

    Lori“Then you have no idea how far I am willing to fight to tear it apart,” Travis shot back. His voice was low, sharp, and cold.He stared right at me. The relentless, toxic determination he had just promised was laced deep in his dark eyes.“But I already told you that I am no longer interested in you,” I shot back. I refused to back down an inch. “How many times do I have to say it until you finally realize how serious I am?”Travis massaged his temples slowly. I knew his patterns too well. He was just stalling, desperately trying to think of the next thing to say to win the argument. Before he could utter another word, I stood up abruptly from the plastic chair.“Hey! Where do you think you are going?” he barked, his face twisting. “We are absolutely not done here, Lori.”“Errm… my mom,” I lied quickly, staring down at my rumpled shoes to avoid his gaze. “She is sick. I just remembered that I haven’t checked up on her today.”“You are lying through your teeth, Lori. I know you to

    Lori“Please pick up. I’m begging you,” I muttered under my breath. I paced back and forth across the small rug in my room, praying that Lucas would answer on the other end of the line.My heart skipped a painful beat when the ringing stopped and went straight to voicemail again. I clicked end and tried one more time. I tried to convince myself that maybe he had just stepped out to the bathroom and was away from his screen. But I knew Lucas well enough by now to know the truth. He always kept his phone within arm's reach. He was actively ignoring me.I dropped onto the edge of my mattress and huffed out a frustrated breath. Suddenly, my phone started ringing. Excitedly, a wide smile broke across my face, and I swiped the screen to answer without even bothering to look at the caller ID.“Lucas! Oh my goodness, I have been calling you for an hour. Why didn’t you pick up any sooner?”“Oh? So your dear boyfriend has already started ignoring your phone calls? Isn’t it a little too soon f

    LoriMy day was turning out to be completely horrible. It felt like a cruel math problem. If you added a massive, screaming fight with your boyfriend from the previous night to an incredibly toxic workplace, the final result was always going to equal a very bad day. There was no way around it.I sat directly under the small office air conditioner in the back room, desperately trying to cool off from the endless clothing sorting I had done throughout the entire morning. My hands were dry from handling fabric, and my shoulders ached. We were finally done moving the current heavy pile of clothes into the inventory racks. However, according to a fellow intern named Isabella, a brand new batch of winter garments might arrive before the work day came to an end. The thought alone made me want to slide out of my chair and hide under the desk.Jessica had been fast asleep when I left our shared dorm room for my morning classes. If she had be

    Lucas My body felt like a wrecking ball had smashed directly into it. In fact, my whole life felt that way entirely. How did I go from being the top hockey player on campus with a promising professional career, to watching that same future dangle by a thin thread?I sighed bitterly into the empty room. I was finally back in my own dorm room after days in the campus hospital. My first official physical rehab session was scheduled to start in three days.Right now, the severe, throbbing pain in my lower spine depended entirely on heavy painkillers. The last round of pills I took had completely worn off. According to the doctor's strict medical orders, I had to wait another two long hours before I was allowed to take the next dose.The constant agony was killing me. It made me want to snap at anyone who came near me. A thick, overwhelming urge to smash everything in my room washed over my mind. I only stayed still on the mattres

    LoriI was entirely too shocked to move from that exact spot on the concrete path. My feet felt glued to the ground. I watched Travis walk away into the dark shadows of the campus night. He had just demanded that I meet him at the cafeteria tomorrow for lunch. He did not ask. He had ordered me, not forgetting to mention telling everyone, especially Jessica my secret.By the time I finally recovered from the heavy shock, he had completely gone out of view. A wave of intense dread washed over my entire body. I already hated myself for letting him corner me. I hated the silly lunch date I was now forced to attend.I slowly continued my short journey toward my dorm building. My steps were much slower now. I could not believe Travis was actually going to use my secret against me. He had already used the threat to secure a forced date. How long would he continue to blackmail me with this? How long until he ruined everything?Wh

    LoriNerves wrecked through my entire body as I entered the building. It was the large building where the fashion house was located. Today was my very first day on the job. So, of course, I was going to be incredibly nervous.I met a blonde girl sitting by the reception desk. I forced myself to flash her a neat, professional smile. But the smile did not quite reach my eyes.“Hi,” I said, clearing my throat. “I am Lori Davis. I am the new intern here.”Her blue eyes remained locked on the large computer screen in front of her face. She did not even look up at me. With a very stern, cold tone, she spoke.“Walk straight through that hallway,” she said. “Take a left turn and go meet the boss in her office. She will be the one to give you instructions on what to do today.”I nodded my head at her quietly. I took the exact directions she just gave me. But at the back of my mind, I wondered about her attitude. Wh

    Lori’s POV My eyes snapped shut. I couldn't tell them about Lucas. Not yet. I couldn't even process it myself."Travis cheated on me," I croaked. My voice sounded raw, completely ruined. "With Elena. On my freaking bed."Jessica’s jaw dropped. She gasped so loud it filled the quiet space. "That a

I was putting on a denim jacket, but the heat from his touch burned into my skin.I was surprised to find out that his dorm room didn't look like a typic

    Lori’s POV Without waiting to see what he is about to do next, I took my car keys and ran out of the room. I rushed past Jessica and Ann in the hallway. Their worried voices shouted my name. However, I ignored them and plunged out of the apartment and into the cold night air. I knew how reck
