Nurse's Office.

Adrian

I never wanted this.

I'm a nursing student and a nurse who believes in discipline, responsibility, and putting others before myself. I keep my head down, study harder than anyone else, and avoid parties, drama, and loud people whenever I can.

Then the principal gave me one assignment I couldn't refuse.

Kamila Callahan.

I'm supposed to help her pass her classes, keep her out of fights, and stay with her almost every hour of the day. Same dorm. Same classes. Same schedule. It's exhausting.

The worst part?

She's my ex.

We ended things after one disagreement neither of us knew how to fix. We act like we hate each other now, but every sarcastic comment, every argument, every glance reminds me that I never stopped loving her.

She drives me insane.

And somehow... I'd still do anything to protect her.

Kamila

Rules were never really my thing.

I'm loud, chaotic, always finding trouble before trouble finds me. Parties, fights, and bad decisions? That's just another Tuesday. Teachers can't stand me, and honestly, I don't care.

Until the principal ruined everything.

Now Adrian Carter has to follow me everywhere. My tutor. My babysitter. My roommate. My classmate. Basically my shadow.

He's cold, bossy, and way too serious.

He's also my ex.

We broke up because of one stupid disagreement that neither of us could let go of. We pretend we've moved on, but every argument feels too personal, every moment together reminds me why I fell for him in the first place.

I tell myself I hate him.

Maybe if I repeat it enough...

I'll finally believe it.
