Chapter 27 27 Why Do I Care?

• Fuck…Fuck…. Fuck, what have I done? I shouldn’t have kissed Hailey. I knew it was a mistake as soon as our lips touched. This is going to complicate things even more. But I have seen how Justin is looking at us suspiciously, and I can’t shake the feeling that he knows that we are not really dating. I wanted to avoid any drama or conflict, but now it seems inevitable.
• The touch of her lips as they met mine felt electric; the warmth of her body pressed against mine sent shivers down my spine. Despite the guilt and uncertainty, there was a part of me that couldn’t deny the undeniable chemistry between us. This kiss may have been a mistake, but it also awakened something inside me that I can’t ignore. As if oil had been poured on a smoldering fire, our fake relationship was now at risk of becoming something much more complicated and real.
• I shook my head, trying to keep my eyes on the road ahead, knowing that this forbidden attraction could lead to consequences neither of us was prepared for. The tension between us was palpable, and I couldn’t help but wonder if we would be able to resist the pull toward each other in the days to come.
