Maeven Eloise C. De Vera hated the thought of love-ironic, considering she grew up with two parents who proved that love defies all norms. Her father was gentle and flamboyant, her mother strong and grounded-a pair that worked perfectly. You'd think she'd be a hopeless romantic because of them, but Maeven believed otherwise.

Despite her disbelief in love, she was the university's social butterfly-smart, beautiful, and adored by everyone. Well, almost everyone.

Nikolai Calix L. Santiago was the exception. Everything about her infuriated him-the way she talked, walked, breathed, and worse, the way she lived rent-free in his head. Determined to beat her at something, he made it his mission to outshine her.

To get her attention, he started taunting her in every way possible-little pranks, harmless jokes-until one went too far. 

And that's when something shifted.
For the first time, Nikolai didn't want to win against her-he wanted to win... her?

"So... what about us?" he asked, and I looked at him, a bit bewildered. "What?" I inquired. "You and me... what are we, Sera? You know how you affect me. You make me feel like I'm losing my mind, and I feel incomplete when you're not around. I yearn for your touch, your scent, and everything about you drives me wild," he admitted, his words close to my face. I let out a shaky breath as I felt a warmth spread through my body. "Thad, I think you're getting something wrong," I began, but he interrupted me. "No, you're the one refusing to admit that you're feeling the same way I am," he insisted, causing me to fall silent. He was right, I couldn't deny the feelings i had for him. They had always been there, but they had intensified with his return. ●●●●●●□□□●●□□□●●● In their final year of high school, Thaddeus and Sera epitomized the dream teen couple, envied by all.

For the booksmart yet naïve 16-year-old Nicky, high school in her quaint little hometown island in the Philippines had always been predictable. Until that senior year. Nicky thought she got things all figured out. She'd be very good at school and be the valedictorian of the single-section class of 2010 of the highly looked-up science high school in their island. And then, she'd get a full scholarship to her dream university. All was fairly well except for a few things like grappling her feelings towards a long-time crush. Just when Nicky thought she could get through high school without too much boy-drama, a somewhat seemingly love life with a boy or two and suddenly, maybe even three was finally catching up with her during the last few months before high school graduation. She had never thought she could be wrong about a person. And that she could always be wrong about boys... ✨✨✨ Sidenote: I wrote this from November 2010 to April 2011, only a year ahead from the time set in the novel. This was fully uploaded on Wattpad in September 2013 for safekeeping. I hadn't gotten back to it in so many years nor find any means and time to promote it. This had long been completed but still needs edit. Enjoy reading! Cheers! P.S. This is not exactly a love story. And yet, it may read a lot like it.
