❝ he belongs to everyone... so why does it feel like I'm the only one he actually gives a fuck about when no one's watching? ❞

IN WHICH... nylah fisher was never supposed to be part of his world. she's just a normal girl-no spotlight, no cameras, no reason to be anywhere near the life he lives. she keeps it simple on purpose. stays out the way, avoids drama, doesn't get involved with people like him. at least... that's how it's supposed to be.
until jared mccain shows up in okc.
new team, new city, same attention following him everywhere. he's loud without trying, confident in a way that makes people look twice. the kind of person nylah usually ignores on sight.
but he notices her anyway.
and that's the problem.
what starts as nothing turns into late-night texts, stolen conversations, and moments that only happen when nobody's supposed to be looking. nothing official. nothing public. just them trying to act like it doesn't mean shit when it clearly does.
because he can't risk the spotlight getting worse.
and she can't risk getting caught in it.
but the more they try to keep it quiet... the harder it gets to pretend it's nothing.
especially when jealousy starts creeping in, rumors start spreading, and he keeps looking at her like she's the only thing in his life that feels real.
it was supposed to be simple.
it's not.
and now they're both fucked.
