Shade (Revised)

Chapter 1: Irresistable

In the halls of East Middleton High, Jason McAllister reigned supreme as the hottest boy. He was the epitome of irresistible. Surrounded by his trusted friends, Jason had it all - from his captivating gaze to his perfect smile. The girls, especially the cheerleaders, couldn't help but drool over him.

With his clear blue eyes, sharp jawlines, and a charm that left every girl weak in the knees, it was impossible to miss Jason's magnetic presence. Every girl yearned for his attention, but none more so than Scarlet Pattinson, the reigning queen bee of the school. With her opulent wealth and flawless facade, Scarlet commanded attention wherever she went, always accompanied by her loyal cheerleader entourage.

Whispers circulated about Scarlet's romantic escapades, as she seemed to have shared intimate moments with almost every handsome guy in school, including Jason himself. However, Jason, despite his reputation as a heartthrob, confessed that he had yet to develop any deep feelings for anyone. Some labeled him a jerk, recalling his past relationship with Scarlet during their eighth-grade year. Their young love had crumbled when Jason caught her in snogging another guy from school.

Despite his single status, Jason McAllister seemed to effortlessly navigate the party scene, spending his nights in the arms of various stunning beauties who willingly handed over their phone numbers. While he maintained close friendships with the popular crowd, he didn't engage much with others, unintentionally creating an air of exclusivity around him.

Although his actions might warrant labeling him a jerk, it was difficult to do so. Deep down, Jason possessed a certain charm and kindness that contradicted his reputation. He cared about how he was perceived by others, aware of the allure his good looks, confident demeanor, and wealth held. Sometimes, he wondered if his financial status was the primary reason why girls flocked to him.

Reluctantly, I must admit that Jason possessed a face that seemed to have been sculpted by angels themselves. His chiseled features and captivating smile made it hard for anyone to resist his charm.

While it's true that Jason's wealth has afforded him a privileged lifestyle, it doesn't necessarily mean he's a spoiled brat. His parents have undoubtedly provided him with opportunities and made his life somewhat of a dream come true. He indulged in playing soccer, dating girls, and embracing the joys of life.

However, even amidst the glitz and glamour, Jason sometimes felt uneasy about the constant attention he received from ladies wherever he went. It's possible that living in the spotlight and constantly being the center of attention took its toll on him.

As fate would have it, tragedy struck Jason's life at a tender age when he lost his beloved mother. Meanwhile, his father, the dashing Dylan McAllister, not only ruled the business world with his renowned company but also possessed a timeless charm. With his suave demeanor and striking features, Dylan was a force to be reckoned with, both in the boardroom and the hearts of those around him.

It's no wonder that Jason inherited his father's captivating looks, becoming a magnetic presence wherever he went. However, beneath the surface of his popularity, Jason yearned for something more than superficial connections and the constant gaze of admiring eyes.

Heyya! After years of losing access to my old Wattpad account, I've finally begun rewriting my old stories here. It's been quite a journey so I can't help but feel a bit nostalgic. I was just a teen when I first wrote it, and now, with a more mature perspective, I've decided to give it a fresh new spin. It's bittersweet to think of all the views and rankings I lost in the process, but I can't wait to share this revised tale with you 📝✨
