00:02Go away, Four Eyes. You disgust me.
00:04The entire Academy knew Leakin Prince hated me.
00:07The transfer student. The nobody.
00:10The girl he called Four Eyes.
00:11He humiliated me. Rejected me.
00:14So when the future king dropped to one knee and begged me to let him into my room,
00:18the whole Academy went silent.
00:20Because three weeks earlier, he couldn't stand the sight of me.
00:24Before she died, my mother gave me one rule.
00:26Never take off those glasses.
00:28If anyone sees your eyes, they'll know what you are.
00:32Ten years later, I arrived at Starlight Academy.
00:35New school. New life.
00:37And within five minutes, I walked into the boys' bathroom.
00:41Five guys turned to stare.
00:43One of them burst out laughing.
00:44Another fangirl? Even in the bathroom?
00:47A tall, dark-haired guy leaned against the sink.
00:50His black shirt was rolled up at the sleeves.
00:52He looked me over once, then spoke.
00:55Lost Four Eyes?
00:56His voice carried the kind of confidence only rich jerks possessed.
01:00I forced a smile.
01:01Sorry. I didn't realize this room was reserved for arrogant jerks.
01:05His eyes narrowed.
01:07What's the point of those glasses, Four Eads?
01:09I clenched my fists.
01:11The glasses were a sensitive topic to me, especially since I wasn't wearing them for my eyesight.
01:16I replied.
01:17Congratulations. You have functioning eyesight.
01:20The dark-haired guy pushed himself off the sink.
01:22Most people learn quickly around here.
01:25Learn what?
01:26Where they belong.
01:27I smiled.
01:28I thought this was a school, not a royal kennel.
01:32That's why I avoid men who introduce themselves by acting like assholes.
01:35I turned around.
01:37Wait! Aren't you gonna ask who he is?
01:39I glanced over my shoulder.
01:41No. If you're important, you'll definitely tell me yourself.
01:45Then I walked out.
01:46Three hours later, the entire academy was gathered in the grand courtyard.
01:51Who's everyone waiting for?
01:53My roommate Trinity stared at me.
01:55You seriously don't know?
01:57No.
01:58The crowd suddenly erupted.
02:00People started screaming.
02:02Girls literally stood on benches.
02:03A figure stepped onto the stage.
02:06Tall.
02:06Dark-haired.
02:07Cold eyes.
02:08My stomach dropped.
02:10The arrogant guy from the bathroom.
02:11All hail Prince Lucian!
02:14The future king of Lyopia!
02:17The crowd exploded.
02:19I blinked.
02:20His eyes found mine across the crowd.
02:22Students flooded.
02:23Then someone slammed into me.
02:25Hard.
02:26My glasses flew off.
02:28Time stopped.
02:29No.
02:29Not the glasses.
02:31I dropped to my knees.
02:32Searching desperately.
02:34Reminding of my mother's words.
02:36A hand reached them first.
02:38My blood turned cold.
02:40Him.
02:40That arrogant guy in the bathroom.
02:42The prince.
02:43He picked up the glasses.
02:45And he saw my eyes.
02:46Completely.
02:48Uncovered.
02:48The strange silver markings hidden beneath my pupils ignited.
02:52His hand clenched.
02:53His wolf surged to the surface.
02:55I could hear his heartbeat.
02:57Fast.
02:58Violent.
02:59Impossible.
03:00His beta neat behind him asked.
03:02What's wrong your highness?
03:04No answer.
03:05His eyes never left mine.
03:07Then his pupils flashed silver.
03:08A little wolf growl escaped his throat.
03:11I grabbed for my glasses.
03:13Turned.
03:14And ran.
03:15A hand suddenly wrapped around my wrist.
03:17No.
03:20No.
03:21He whispered.
03:22A beat.
03:23My faded mate.
03:24His fingers tightened around my wrist.
03:27Mine.
03:29She's my mate.
03:31The moment Prince Lucian saw my eyes.
03:33Everything changed.
03:34I snatched my glasses from his hand.
03:36The strange look disappeared instantly.
03:39His expression hardened.
03:40The icy prince was back.
03:42Without another word, he turned and walked away.
03:45The next day, everyone was talking about one thing.
03:47The Starlight Festival.
03:49The biggest party of the year.
03:51Thousands of lights floated above the courtyard.
03:53Students danced beneath glowing stars.
03:56Across the courtyard stood the last person I wanted to see.
03:58Prince Lucian.
03:59And standing beside him was a beautiful red-haired girl wrapped around his arm.
04:03Crystal.
04:04His ex.
04:05She noticed me and walked over.
04:07Well, look who it is.
04:09Crystal looked me up and down.
04:11So you're the bathroom girl.
04:13Laughter immediately rippled through the crowd.
04:16I blinked.
04:17The what?
04:18Crystal smiled sweetly.
04:20The girl who followed Lucian into the men's bathroom?
04:23The kind of smile that made you want to check if you'd been poisoned.
04:26Oh.
04:26I nodded.
04:28You mean the girl who accidentally opened the wrong door?
04:30Crystal ignored that.
04:32Funny how every year there's always one desperate girl trying to get the prince's attention.
04:36More laughter.
04:37My stomach tightened.
04:39Not because of her.
04:40Because everyone was looking at me.
04:42Including Lucian.
04:43I glanced toward him.
04:45Waiting.
04:46One sentence.
04:47That's all it would take.
04:49Just.
04:49She didn't follow me.
04:51But he didn't say a word.
04:52He simply took a sip of his drink.
04:55Completely indifferent.
04:56Fine.
04:57If he wanted to watch me burn.
04:59I'd make sure he got a good show.
05:01Interesting.
05:02Crystal frowned.
05:04What is?
05:04I lifted my glass.
05:06I've been at this academy for less than a day.
05:08And somehow.
05:09I'm already living rent free in your head.
05:13Honestly.
05:13It's kind of flattering.
05:15Crystal crossed her arms.
05:16Careful.
05:17Why?
05:18Because you're embarrassing yourself.
05:21I laughed.
05:22That's rich.
05:24You know what I think?
05:25I tilted my head.
05:27I think you're less worried about me.
05:28I glanced briefly at Lucian.
05:30And.
05:32More worried.
05:33About him.
05:34Crystal's face darkened instantly.
05:36If I knew the prince came with an emotional support ex-girlfriend.
05:40I paused.
05:42I'd have brought a chew toy.
05:43Crystal looked ready to murder me.
05:45Worth it.
05:46For a brief second.
05:47I risked looking toward Lucian.
05:49Big mistake.
05:50Because he was already looking at me.
05:53Studying me.
05:54Crystal immediately grabbed his arm.
05:56A blatant claim of ownership.
05:58But Lucian frowned.
05:59And casually pulled his arm away.
06:01The movement was small.
06:03Yet everyone saw it.
06:04Including Crystal.
06:06The fury in her eyes tripled.
06:08Wonderful.
06:09I had made an enemy.
06:10On my second day.
06:12A loud cheer suddenly erupted across the courtyard.
06:14All eyes turned toward the stage.
06:16Nate climbed onto a platform holding a silver vial.
06:19Now this.
06:20He announced.
06:21Is the part you've all been waiting for.
06:24The crowd exploded.
06:25What exactly was that?
06:27Trinity looked horrified.
06:28You don't know?
06:30No.
06:31Moon breath.
06:32My stomach dropped.
06:34The mating potion?
06:36The silver fog dripped across the courtyard.
06:38My glasses fogged instantly.
06:40Heat spread through my chest.
06:42Then my arms.
06:43Then everywhere.
06:44Something inside me stirred.
06:47Luma.
06:47My wolf.
06:49For the first time in years.
06:50She wasn't sleeping.
06:52She was awake.
06:53And she was demanding something.
06:55Someone.
06:56Follow him.
06:57The voice echoed through my head.
06:59Stronger.
07:00Louder.
07:00Follow him.
07:02I stumbled through the crowd.
07:04I crossed the tree line.
07:05Stepped into the dark forest.
07:07And saw a figure standing ahead.
07:09Waiting.
07:10Prince Lucian.
07:11His eyes locked onto mine.
07:14You followed me.
07:16Four eyes.
07:18Trust me.
07:19If I had any choice in the matter.
07:21I'd be literally anywhere else.
07:23The forest fell silent.
07:25Then that strange heat surged through me again.
07:27Stronger than before.
07:29My wolf paced restlessly inside my head.
07:31Him.
07:32Our mate.
07:35Him.
07:36Our mate.
07:37The word echoed through my mind.
07:40What is this?
07:41His expression darkened.
07:43You tell me.
07:44I asked first.
07:45And I don't care.
07:47Liar.
07:47You felt it in the hallway.
07:50When you saw my eyes.
07:51His face became unreadable.
07:53He didn't deny it.
07:55My stomach dropped.
07:56Mate.
07:56The realization crashed into me.
07:59No.
08:01That's exactly what I said.
08:03The distance between us felt smaller.
08:05I hated it.
08:06And judging from Lucian's expression.
08:08He hated it too.
08:10Anyone else?
08:11What?
08:12Moon goddess couldn't pick anyone else?
08:15To my surprise, a bitter smile appeared on his face.
08:18On that, we agree.
08:19The answer should have made me feel better.
08:22Instead, it hurt.
08:23Then suddenly a branch cracked somewhere behind me.
08:26I startled.
08:27Instinctively stepping backward.
08:29My heel caught a root.
08:30I lost my balance.
08:32A hand shot out.
08:33Fast.
08:34Lucian caught my waist.
08:36The second our skin touched.
08:38Everything exploded.
08:39My breath vanished.
08:40His eyes widened.
08:42The bond slammed into both of us at once.
08:44A violent pulse.
08:46A magnetic force neither of us understood.
08:48Then his grip tightened.
08:50Lucian stared at me.
08:51Like he was trying to solve a problem that shouldn't exist.
08:54Then his gaze dropped briefly to my lip.
08:57Arya.
08:58It was the first time he'd ever said my name.
09:00And somehow that felt more dangerous than any insult.
09:03Then his lips pressed against mine.
09:05I barely slept.
09:07Not because of the moon breath.
09:09Not because of the bond.
09:10And definitely not because Prince Lucian had almost kissed me.
09:14The memory replayed the second I closed my eyes.
09:16The forest.
09:17His hand on my waist.
09:19The way he looked at me.
09:21Like he hated me.
09:22And wanted me at the same time.
09:24The worst part?
09:25I almost kissed him back.
09:27Thankfully, my survival instincts kicked in first.
09:30The moment his face moved closer.
09:32I ran.
09:33Straight out of the forest.
09:35Like my life depended on it.
09:37I had bigger problems than mates.
09:39Much bigger.
09:40My glasses sat on the desk beside my bed.
09:42The same glasses my mother had died protecting.
09:45Never take them off.
09:47Her final words echoed in my head.
09:49As always.
09:50Most people thought they were just glasses.
09:53They weren't.
09:54They were a cage.
09:55Because ever since I was a child.
09:57I saw things.
09:58Things I wasn't supposed to see.
10:01Nightmares.
10:01Voices.
10:03Strangers who didn't exist.
10:05Fragments of the future.
10:06I used to wake up screaming.
10:08Convinced someone was standing beside my bed.
10:11Sometimes, they were.
10:12Healers having gifts wasn't unusual.
10:14But mine wasn't healing.
10:16Mine felt wrong.
10:17Only four people knew the truth.
10:19My dyed parents.
10:21My uncle.
10:22And Rowan.
10:23My cousin.
10:24Also in this academy.
10:25Healing fundamentals.
10:27My least favorite class.
10:29I grabbed a seat near the back.
10:31Look.
10:32A familiar voice rang out.
10:34Crystal.
10:35She stood near the front row with several girls.
10:38All of them staring at me.
10:39The bathroom stalker is back.
10:41A few students laughed.
10:43I rolled my eyes.
10:44You really need a hobby.
10:46Crystal's smile twitched.
10:48Before she could answer.
10:49The classroom doors opened.
10:51Professor Esther entered.
10:52The kind of woman who could probably kill someone with a disappointed look.
10:56She announced.
10:57Today.
10:57We will test your healing affinity.
11:00Students took turns approaching the practice table.
11:02Most managed small healing bursts.
11:04A few failed completely.
11:06Then it was Crystal's turn.
11:08Predictably.
11:09She received a pulse.
11:10Her healing magic glowed right so far.
11:13She smiled like she'd already won.
11:15Then Esther called my name.
11:16Miss Hastings.
11:18Your turn.
11:19The injured training wolf lifted its head weakly.
11:21I placed my hand against its side.
11:23Nothing happened.
11:25A few students smirked.
11:27Crystal looked delighted.
11:28Then suddenly.
11:29The wolf went through.
11:31A strange pulse shot through my arm.
11:33My vision went.
11:34For half a second.
11:35I saw blood.
11:37Fire.
11:38A woman crying.
11:39A silver-eyed wolf standing in darkness.
11:41The image vanished.
11:43Power exploded from my hands.
11:45The wolf's wounds disappeared instantly.
11:47The entire classroom froze.
11:49Even I stared.
11:50What?
11:51The wolf jumped to its feet.
11:53Healthy.
11:54Completely healed.
11:55Then someone asked.
11:57How did she do that?
11:58Another voice followed.
12:00That was impossible.
12:02Professor Esther looked intrigued.
12:04After class ended, she stopped me before I could leave.
12:07Miss Hastings.
12:09You remind me of someone.
12:11That surprised me.
12:13Who?
12:13For a brief moment, something unreadable crossed her face.
12:17Your mother.
12:19I froze.
12:20You knew my mother?
12:21Esther nodded.
12:23Claire Hastings.
12:24The name hit me like a punch.
12:26She was one of the finest Elite Team members Starlight Academy ever produced.
12:30I blinked.
12:31Elite Team?
12:32Your father too.
12:34My heart stopped.
12:35What?
12:36Esther studied me carefully.
12:37As far as I'm concerned, the talent clearly runs in the family.
12:42Before I could respond, she pulled a small silver envelope from her desk and handed it to me.
12:47What is this?
12:49An invitation.
12:50The silver crest of Starlight Academy shimmered across the seal.
12:53Elite Team candidate trials.
12:55My breath caught.
12:57I think you're exactly where you're supposed to be.
12:59The second Trinity mentioned Elite Team, I knew my life was over.
13:03Congratulations!
13:04You are an Elite Team!
13:05That means you must be a really good healer!
13:07And I heard something.
13:09What?
13:10You know who's leading Elite Team this year?
13:12A bad feeling immediately settled in my stomach.
13:15Trinity grinned.
13:16Liar than Prince Lucian!
13:17Silence.
13:18I stared at her.
13:20Absolutely not.
13:21What?
13:22Are you kidding me?
13:23It's all anyone's talking about!
13:25First day of school and you're already in for a trial with the prince?
13:29I groaned.
13:30There are hundreds of students at this academy.
13:33Thousands.
13:34Why does it have to be him?
13:36Then my phone buzzed.
13:37An email notification.
13:39Elite Team trials.
13:40In two days.
13:42My heart stopped.
13:43Two days.
13:44Only two days before I would be standing directly beside Prince Lucian.
13:48Every day.
13:49Absolutely not.
13:50There was only one solution.
13:52End the bond.
13:53Now.
13:54Before things got worse.
13:55I jumped to my feet.
13:57Where are you going?
13:58I need to talk to someone.
14:00The academy was nearly empty by the time I crossed campus.
14:03Night had settled over Starlight Academy.
14:05Everyone knew where Prince Lucian lived.
14:07Because apparently every girl at the school talked about him non-stop.
14:11I climbed the stairs.
14:12And stopped.
14:13There it was.
14:14A massive black door.
14:16Then I knocked.
14:17Once.
14:18Twice.
14:19Nothing.
14:19I turned to leave.
14:21The door opened.
14:23Lucian stood there.
14:24Shirtless.
14:24His skin damp and slightly glowing.
14:26Like he had just stepped out of the shower.
14:28His scent hit me instantly.
14:29Clean.
14:30Fresh.
14:31Intoxicating.
14:32It made my head spin.
14:33His eyes narrowed.
14:35Four eyes.
14:36What do you want?
14:38I immediately regretted coming.
14:40It was hard to do so when with his bare chest and the hard lines of his abs right in
14:43front of me.
14:44On display.
14:45Good.
14:46I need to talk to you.
14:47I crossed my arms.
14:48He led me past.
14:50Then kicked the door closed with his legs.
14:52Against the wall was a king sized bed.
14:54I don't know if you've heard but I have a trial on the elite team.
14:58I turned my head so I wouldn't have to look his body.
15:01Lucian chuckled.
15:02So?
15:03So?
15:04I repeated.
15:05So we need to fix this.
15:06I pointed between us.
15:08Genuine surprise crossed his face.
15:10Fix what?
15:11The mate bond.
15:12Silence.
15:13Then Lucian laughed.
15:14He had cornered me against the wall.
15:16Just like that night in the woods.
15:18You're serious.
15:20Completely serious.
15:22I lifted my chin.
15:24I don't like you.
15:25His expression flattened.
15:27That's unfortunate.
15:28You think you can just walk in here, say a few words, and make this all disappear?
15:34I swallowed hard.
15:35We have to.
15:37I can't keep doing this with you.
15:38After all this?
15:39Alright.
15:40He nodded.
15:41Then go ahead.
15:42End it for me.
15:43I felt a sharp pain in my heart, but I had no idea why.
15:47This was what I wanted.
15:48Fine.
15:49I, Area Hastings of the Blood Rose Pack, reject you.
15:54Prince Lucian, heir to the Luperian throne as my mate.
15:57I closed my eyes, waiting for Lucian's words as I anticipated the awful feeling people always
16:02described when the bond got released.
16:03But nothing happened.
16:05When I opened my eyes, Lucian's jaw twitched before a dark chuckle escaped his lips.
16:09He began.
16:10I, Prince Lucian, do not accept your rejection.
16:15What?
16:16You can't-
16:16I can, and I did.
16:18Lucian's hand touched my lip.
16:20I won't get rejected by a puppy, no four eyes.
16:23You are mine.
16:24Tell me something.
16:26Why can I smell your wolf waking it up and moaning?
16:29Then something worse.
16:31Wait.
16:31His eyes widened.
16:33What are you?
16:34His hand reached for my glasses.
16:36His fingers brushed the frame of my glasses.
16:39Instinct took over.
16:40I slapped his hand away.
16:42Hard.
16:42The sound echoed through the room.
16:45Lucian slowly looked down at his hand.
16:47You hit me.
16:48I warned you.
16:49His mouth twitched.
16:51That's the second time.
16:52I replied.
16:53Maybe stop reaching for my face.
16:55His eyes narrowed slightly.
16:57You're hiding something.
16:58My stomach tightened.
17:00No.
17:01I'm hiding my eyesight.
17:03Funny.
17:04I'm serious.
17:05No, you're not.
17:06My gaze fell upon his bare chest.
17:08I immediately regretted looking, and somehow he noticed.
17:11A smug look appeared on his face.
17:13See something you like, four eyes?
17:15Heat rushed into my cheeks.
17:17I was trying to figure out how someone with your ego still fits inside this building.
17:22His grin widened.
17:24That's cute.
17:25I wasn't trying to be cute.
17:26No.
17:27That's what makes it cute.
17:28I hated him.
17:29I really did.
17:31I'm leaving.
17:32I turned and grabbed the door handle.
17:34Nothing happened.
17:35I frowned and pulled harder.
17:38Still nothing.
17:39What did you do?
17:40I didn't do anything.
17:41I tried again.
17:43Clocked.
17:44Slowly, Lucian pointed toward the clock on the wall.
17:4711.59pm.
17:48His expression shifted.
17:50Just slightly.
17:51Like he suddenly realized the problem.
17:53Curfew.
17:54I stared at him.
17:56His grin returned.
17:57I pulled the handle again.
17:59Nothing.
18:00The academy automatically locked all residential buildings after midnight.
18:04No exceptions.
18:05No transfers.
18:06No unlucky idiots who wandered into a prince's room to reject him.
18:10Midnight arrived.
18:11The lock clicked.
18:12And my soul left my body.
18:14You have got to be kidding me.
18:17Tell me there's another exit.
18:19There is.
18:20Hope surged through me.
18:21Then Lucian pointed at the window.
18:23Five stories above the ground.
18:25Hope died immediately.
18:27The next hour was torture.
18:29Pure torture.
18:30I sat on the couch furthest from him.
18:32Lucian stretched across his bed like this was the funniest thing he'd ever witnessed.
18:36The room was enormous.
18:38Bigger than my entire dorm.
18:40Dark wood furniture.
18:41A fireplace.
18:42Bookshelves.
18:43A sitting area.
18:45One king sized bed.
18:46I tried not to look at it.
18:48Relax.
18:49I'm relaxed.
18:51You've been staring at the door for 20 minutes.
18:53I'm evaluating my escape options.
18:56Through solid wood?
18:58I'll find a way.
19:00He chuckled.
19:01I hated how good his laugh sounded.
19:03A few minutes later, he tossed something at me.
19:06I barely caught it.
19:07A black shirt.
19:08I looked down.
19:10Then back up.
19:11What am I supposed to do with this?
19:13Wear it.
19:14I blinked.
19:15What?
19:16You can't sleep in that dress.
19:18I'm not sleeping.
19:19Lucian didn't even look up from his book.
19:21You will.
19:23Minutes later, I was wearing his shirt.
19:25And falling asleep.
19:27The shirt smelled like him.
19:29Pine.
19:29Rain.
19:31A very annoying problem.
19:33Every time I caught the scent, my wolf stirred.
19:35And every time my wolf stirred.
19:37So did the bond.
19:39The room was dark.
19:40The fire had burned low.
19:42I thought Lucian was asleep.
19:44Until his voice broke the silence.
19:46Do you ever take those off?
19:47I froze.
19:49My hand immediately touched my glasses.
19:51What?
19:52The glasses.
19:54His voice was quieter now.
19:55Less mocking.
19:56Less Lucian.
19:58Do you ever take them off?
19:59I stared at the ceiling.
20:01No.
20:01A pause.
20:02Then.
20:03Why?
20:04I almost told him to mind his own business.
20:07But something about the darkness made lying harder.
20:10My mother asked me not to.
20:12I swallowed.
20:13My mom used to say they protected me.
20:15She never really explained from what.
20:17Then Lucian spoke.
20:19My mother used to do that.
20:21I turned my head.
20:22What?
20:23Tell me things without explaining them.
20:25I hated it.
20:26For the first time since meeting him, he didn't sound like a prince.
20:30Or an alpha.
20:31Or an arrogant jerk.
20:33He sounded lonely.
20:34The realization caught me off guard.
20:36My mom died 10 years ago.
20:38The words slipped out before I could stop them.
20:41Lucian finally looked at me.
20:43I immediately wished I hadn't said it.
20:45I hated talking about it.
20:47Hated the pity that always followed.
20:49But Lucian didn't pity me.
20:51He just looked at me.
20:52For a moment, neither of us spoke.
20:54The fire crackled softly.
20:56The bond hummed between us.
20:58Quiet.
20:59Gentle.
21:00Not demanding anything.
21:02Just there.
21:03Eventually I rolled onto my side.
21:05Facing away from him.
21:07Good night.
21:07My voice came out softer than intended.
21:10Good night, Arya.
21:12The next thing I knew, sunlight hit my face.
21:15I blinked awake.
21:17My eyes widened.
21:18I wasn't on the couch.
21:20I was in his bed.
21:21Lucian's bed.
21:23The guy I hated.
21:24Wearing his shirt.
21:25Wrapped in his blanket.
21:27My heart nearly exploded.
21:29What.
21:29The.
21:30Hell.
21:31Then I heard voices outside.
21:33Female voices.
21:34Several of them.
21:36Oh my god, is he awake?
21:37I brought him coffee.
21:39Move, you're blocking the door.
21:41My blood turned to ice.
21:42I looked toward the door.
21:44Then toward myself.
21:45Then toward the empty side of the bed.
21:48Lucian was gone.
21:49The girls outside got louder.
21:51And suddenly, the door handles started turning.
21:54Three girls stood outside.
21:55One of them dropped her coffee.
21:57The cup hit the floor.
21:59Silence.
22:00Then all three looked past me.
22:02At Lucian.
22:03He had just come out of the bathroom, wearing nothing but a towel.
22:06My life ended right there.
22:07Oh my god, no way.
22:09She spent the night here?
22:10I wanted the ground to open and swallow me.
22:13Immediately, Lucian yawned.
22:15Move.
22:16The girls jumped aside.
22:18I ran.
22:19Unfortunately, the rumors were faster.
22:22Every conversation stopped when I entered.
22:24Heads turned.
22:25Whispers followed.
22:27That's her.
22:28The new girl from Lucian's room?
22:29I heard she stayed all night.
22:31I heard she left wearing his shirt.
22:32I grabbed a tray and tried to disappear.
22:34Bad plan.
22:35Because someone stepped directly into my path.
22:38Red hair.
22:39Red lipstick.
22:40Perfect smile.
22:42Crystal.
22:42She looked me up and down.
22:44Enjoy your sleepover?
22:46The cafeteria went silent.
22:48Every eye landed on us.
22:49I tightened my grip on the tray.
22:51I don't know what you're talking about.
22:53Crystal laughed.
22:55Really?
22:55She stepped closer.
22:57You spend the night in my boyfriend's room and suddenly you're shy?
23:00He's not your boyfriend.
23:01The word slipped out before I could stop them.
23:04Big mistake.
23:05Her smile vanished.
23:06The room got even quieter.
23:08You think you're special?
23:10She looked me straight in the eye.
23:12You think one night changes anything?
23:14I swallowed.
23:15Nothing happened.
23:18Nobody believes that.
23:19Before I could respond, she deliberately knocked my drink from my tray.
23:23Cold juice exploded toward me.
