Chapter 115 - Done Running Away
Alexis’s POV
I immediately got up after realizing that I had fallen asleep on the school rooftop. The sky's already in an orange hue, which means it's nearing sunset. How did I sleep that long?! When I was about to stand up, I noticed a jacket was placed on me. I don't remember falling asleep with a jacket on top of me and a towel as my pillow. "Where did this come from?" Just then, a scent coming from the jacket made me stop. It smells familiar; it smells like Ezra. I stood up from the ground while holding the jacket. You really did it now, Alexis. You skipped class for the whole day.
Even though I should feel guilty for what I did, it feels like it's been so long since I last had a good sleep like this one. "I probably should go." I stood up and left the rooftop. As I arrived in the hallway, no one was to be found, and the silence filled my e

How did I end up inside Ezra's room again? I swear I was only going to return his jacket, but— Ebony, his sister, told me to wait for Ezra in his room. She didn't even ask me why I had come and immediately pushed me here.I'm scared of being alone inside Ezra's room filled with his nostalgic scent. What if I do something terrible to him again? What if I harassed him again and made Ezra hate me?I shook my head to remove those thoughts. It's not the time for me to think about such things. All I need is to leave this jacket here and leave. Right! I must at least leave a letter, then I can just tell him that we should talk tomorrow. That's right, at least that way I could still prepare what I need to say.And so I wrote on the paper I saw on Ezra's desk. I left it on his table and placed the jacket on his chair. I should probably leave before Ezra arrive since this might make him uncomfortab

Kissing, I didn’t know kissing was such an incredible thing.“Are you alright?”It felt like my whole body was melting; I received an adult-like kiss from Ezra, which wasn’t something I expected. “I-I’m fine,” I said as Ezra helped me get up from his bed. Now that reminds me, I’m inside Ezra’s room. W-We did something incredible inside his room. Shoot! I forgot I only told Lean that I’d be quick. “I-I think I need to go home now. My sister must be worried about me.”Ezra immediately apologized and wore his jacket. “I’ll come with you. I’ll apologize to your sister too.” He said, which caused me to feel embarrassed remembering what we did. “Would that be fine to you?” The way Ezra keeps asking for my permission first really gets me. Why is he so soft and kind?I nodded. &
Trapped in Lace Chapter 118 - New School Year, New Classmates
“Is there something wrong, Mitch?” Mitch flinched and immediately let out an awkward laugh. I knew it; he’s not being himself right now. “Uh, did something happen between you and Royce?” He stopped laughing, and he couldn’t answer.Am I right on?“Y-You don’t have to say the reason, but… I want you to calm down.” Hearing that, Mitch looked like he was about to break down. However, he got a hold of himself, smiling at me. “You’re right. I should apologize to Jade.” Even though Jade doesn’t seem to care, Mitch still apologized for his rough greeting. Our other classmates were confused too, but they didn’t pay it any mind because Kyros and Kyril were arguing again about Liliana. They really do like Liliana so much. Which reminds me, I need to talk to Jade later about Lia, whom she really loves. Since it’s just the second day since school started, we have new teachers, and the introductio
Trapped in Lace Chapter 119 - Understanding Each Other
It's not okay for us to roam around, but this is the perfect time for me to talk to Jade. Since Mitch was busy persuading Liliana, I followed Jade out on my own. However, I didn't know in which direction she went.Did she go to the restroom?It'd be troublesome if the whole class learned about my dispute with Jade. I don't want to make things worse than this already.Like how I thought, Jade was on her way to the restroom, so I stealthily followed her. I must talk to her before we could go back to our classroom. That's what I thought as I waited around the corner near the women's restroom, but she wasn't coming out. "Did she have a stomachache?""Stomachache, my ass."I almost jumped out after someone whispered behind me, and when I turned around, there I saw Jade holding her sketchpad and pencil case. "Why are you following me, stupid?"I balled my fists as I gulped.&n
Trapped in Lace Chapter 120 - Club Managers
Jade and I ended our dispute by opening up to each other. At first, I didn’t expect to talk freely with Jade like this, but it wasn’t that bad. After all, she was so hard to talk to when we were children. Wasit because I just can’t speak appropriately towards other people because of my negative thoughts?I don’t know.All I know is that Jade and I are getting along well. I almost lost myself with the words Jade used on me before; that’s why I’m glad I was able to pull myself together. Jade would have laughed at me if I did lose myself there because I didn’t change. I would still be the same weakling that I used to be.“R-Right, do you want to join the volleyball club as our club manager?”Jade looked back at me while we were going to the classroom. “Why would I?”I was taken aback by Jade’s response. She

Joaquin and Arata immediately paid Tiffany their attention after she said that. Was it just me, or did Tiffany look annoyed at Liliana? I shook my head to remove that nasty thought from my head. I’m the only one thinking like that; maybe that’s how Tiffany looks typically. The two of them talked to Angelica about the club manager’s duties. At the same time, we tried to talk to the newcomers since we’ll be playing with them next time before starting the training, like how we did it before when Mitch and I were still newcomers. “Eh? Alexis, you’re the official setter? I thought it was that senior?” One of the freshmen I talked to said his name is Bailey, and he’s playing as a libero. “I thought he was really the official setter, oh no offense.” I smiled as I nodded since it wasn’t even offensive. If I were one of the newcomers, I would immediately assume that Armin’s the official setter. “But we’ll decide
Trapped in Lace Chapter 122 - The Perfect Boyfriend
What's going on?"Brother! I didn't know you'd let your hair grow this long." The girl said as she touched Mitch's shoulder-length hair. "Mom would definitely scold you. Thank god we're both away from her." She added.Mitch couldn't believe what was going on. "Mitzi? How did you— Why are you wearing this school's uniform?!" He stood up from the bench after noticing the girl's attire that jumped on him. Now that I'm looking at this girl, I can see how they resemble each other. Mitch and this girl with the name Mitzi have the same cat-slit eyes."Didn't you know? That famous writer is going to this school now! AJ! She's a student of this school." Mitzi said with too much excitement in her eyes. That's when her gaze landed on me, and she raised an eyebrow. "Who's this cutie? Is he your boyfriend?" She received a bonk on the head from Mitch after she asked that.That means she knows about Mitch's s

Wait! Why am I referring to myself as 'someone like me' again?!I shook my head to remove that thought out of my head. Ezra's trying his best to accept all of me, but I still couldn't learn how to love myself. Isn't that too rude towards him? That's why I should try my best to learn how to love myself first. No, I'm going to love myself from now on. "Alexis?" I was pulled back to reality after Ezra called my name. "You were in a daze while staring at my face. You're making me blush." He joked with that sheepish expression on his face, causing me to feel embarrassed, and made me slap his arm gently. "Should we go and have an after-school date? What do you say?" Ezra smiled brightly while asking that; there's no way I could reject such a cute suggestion of his. "Let's go." We grabbed our bags and went towards the nearest mall from the academy. "What do you want t
