"Watch your steps, Stacy. What were you thinking?" Alex said.
"Nothing that concerns you," I shot back, brushing past him.
I had barely taken three steps when he blocked my path again.
"I have something to tell you."
"I don't want to hear it." I tried to move around him, but he stepped in front of me again.
"I need you at the basketball court after school."
"Excuse me?" I folded my arms. "I will do no such thing."
I tried to push past him, but this time his hand wrapped around my wrist. Not painfully, just firm enough to remind me he wasn't joking.
"If you love your grades," he said quietly, leaning closer, his breath warm against my ear, "and you actually care about your future... be there."
My heartbeat skipped.
"Is that a threat?" I asked, even though my voice wasn't as steady as I wanted it to be.
A slow smirk curved on his lips.
He leaned in even closer.
"If you don't come," he whispered in a low, dangerously calm voice, "the consequences will be on you."
And then he walked away.
I stood there frozen, replaying the sound of his voice in my head, the way it lingered, the way his breath had brushed against my ear.
I hated how it made me shiver and I hated even more that a part of me wanted him to do it again.

Hi. I'm Stacy.
Online, I'm the girl with the voice everyone loves; Thousands of followers, Endless comments and a Perfect reputation.
Offline? I'm just the new girl, trying to survive the school I've dreamed about for years.
Moving in with my uncle was supposed to be a fresh start.
Instead, I walked into: Complicated friendships, Academic pressure and a reputation that followed me before I even stepped into class
And then somewhere in between, two very different boys decides to make everything even more complicated.
This was supposed to be my dream school!
So why does it feel like a test I wasn't ready for?
Welcome....... to My New School.
