Never Have I Ever (Campus Games, #1)

by Stephanie Alves

maybe that’s why I’m currently on the way to his house, about to ask him to take my virginity.

oh! um

“I’m Rosalie Whitton. I need to talk to Grayson Carter. Can I come in?”

why are we using full names

Where is he? I clutch my hand on the railing and take a deep breath in. I take a step forward and climb the stairs.

you’re dumb as fuck

Except, Aiden was right. He is busy. With another girl’s tongue down his throat.

DUH. oh my god idiot

Things are already starting to confuse me. Lines are starting to blur, and I don’t know what to do about that.

you’ve seen her twice but okay

I laugh bitterly. “This,” I gesture between us, “was a mistake. I shouldn’t have asked you for anything.” I pull my arm out of his reach and continue walking toward my apartment.

real talk wtf is going on

“What? Why not?”

wdym you literally also said you couldn’t do it

I need that money.

is he rich or not? like

He doesn’t have money like my parents do. He can’t get out of this.

then why do you need the money

I hate that she thinks I'm selling drugs.

aren’t you?? i’m so confused

“Those are things that you think you have to do, what other people want, Rosie. What do you want?”

we have this conversation every three days

“You’ve never been kissed?” he asks,

you knew this already

“I’ll do it.”

took you no time to fold

we’re friends, right? And well, you have me now, so I’ll buy you flowers from now on.”

sure

Just the press of his lips against mine. “I’ll quit,” he says.

yeah very friendly.

Grayson: Are you trying to run from me? Because let me tell you, Rosie, no matter where you go, I will scour the earth to find you.

yep.. very friendly. just buddies.

I freeze at the mention of my mother.

OOP. there’s no fucking way the world is THAT DAMN SMALL

I’m probably going to end up with some guy who’s a member of the country club and who owns a hotel.”

after you and your mom just had this heart to heart about how you didn’t want that and she agreed that she shouldn’t control you ? what

I know without a doubt in my heart that I’m way too deep in this.

oh you think ?

“This is where we’re going?”

YOU put it on the list

I don’t know if she freaked out by what I told her,

you’re stupid

“It’s bad enough you opened your legs to my brother and birthed that son of a bitch, I don’t have to stand by and hear him disrespect me too.”

okay WHAT

“I don’t need you. I don’t need a needy girl wanting to cling onto me like a wet dog,” I say, reciting Aiden’s words.

excuse me

There’s no such thing!”

bros a child

“This is all on you. I’m sorry.” And with that he turns and walks away.

you’re a cunt

I love being around her,

you what? i thought big bad scary love didn’t exist?

I’m not like your junkie mom.”

i hope he beats your ass for that

But let me remind you that my fists still fucking work,

period

The music changes to a slow song as we head to the middle of the bar,

in what fucking world lmao

The reality is I like her a lot, so fucking much,

WHAT DO YOU THINK LOVE IS??? ITS LITERALLY JUSY LIKING SOMEONE SO FUCKING MUCH??? do you think you just like someone a lot and there’s a cut off right before love where it stops and your feelings never grow past that?? you’re fucking stupid.

Shit. He’s right. I do feel like that for her.

DUH

I love her. Of course, I fucking love her. I want every moment with her.

i can’t even be happy bc he’s so fucking stupid lmao

“Don’t say that.”

you said it first??
