she wasn't wrong; gabriel's gaze had spent the better part of the semester trespassing, tracing the curve of her throat, the orbit of her lips, the suggestive arch in her posture when she disagreed with him. he'd thought himself subtle, above the neediness of the average man. clearly, he'd been deluding himself. "you're very observant,” he said, careful to keep his tone level, almost amused. "but i thought you were here for the art history credits, not the attention."

“oh,  i'm  absolutely  here  for  both.”  coral  reached  into  her  bag  and  set  her  graded  paper  on  his  desk.  “a  c  plus?  this  is  an  a  paper.  my  observations  and  arguments  were  well  thought  out.  i  didn't  bullshit  my  way  through  it.  no  one  sold  it  to  me.  there  is  nothing  wrong  with  this  paper."  she  told  him  pointedly  and  studied  his  expression  for  a  quiet  beat.  “all  because  i  won't  smile  at  you,  lift  up  my  skirt,  show  a  little  bit  of  thigh?  that  what  you  want,  professor?"

the brunette knocked on the door of the kindergarten room, poking her head in. “hi honey, it’s tessa. do you have extra crayons in here? my kids used my whole supply.” her tone is apologetic, slight smile on her lips.

ellie's  hand  shot  up  to  hide  her  mouth  as  she  chewed  on  a  muffin  and  watched  a  video  on  her  phone  with  earbuds  in.  her  class  were  taking  naps  on  mats  nearby.  “oh,  yeah.  hi.  sorry,  i  was  stuffing  my  face.”  she  wiped  her  lips  with  a  napkin,  discarding  some  crumbs,  and  stood  up  from  her  seat.  “i  think  i  have  some  extra  over  here.  c'mon  in.”  ellie  told  her  quietly,  waving  her  inside  the  classroom.  she  dug  through  a  few  plastic  drawers  and  found  a  large  ziplock  bag  full  of  extra  crayons.  “here  ya  go.  they're  always  breaking  them.  eating  them.  you  name  it.” 

“You have no idea how excited I am for this!” Aveline confessed, taking one of Bonnie’s hands and squeezing it in delight before dropping it and flushing as she’d realized it was an odd thing to do to someone she’d just met. “Sorry, I just…I grew up loving watching horse training, but never had the means to work with them…nevermind ride them,” she explained, then looked at one of the available horses. “So, how do you pair people and horses?” she inquired, tilting her head slightly in a rather adorable manner.

“don't  worry  about  it  at  all!  dig  the  excitement.  shame  you  never  got  to  ride  'til  now.  once  in  a  lifetime  experience.  trust  me."  bonnie  let  her  hands  drop  from  aveline's  grip  and  flashed  a  toothy  grin  at  her.  she  couldn't  get  over  how  adorable  she  was.  like  a  kid  in  a  candy  store.  her  hand  rested  on  the  back  of  a  black  horse.  “usually  base  that  on  personality.  you  more  comfy  with  chill  and  slow  or  adventurous  and  unpredictable?"

" of call guys you could have started dating it just had to be him? " the captain of his teams biggest rival. had this been her way of getting back at him for not always being the best boyfriend? for picking his hockey career over their relationship? whatever the reason is, it drives lorenzo crazy.

“of  course.  because  everything  that  i  do  is  about  you,  enzo."  adela  let  out  a  quiet  scoff,  looking  away  from  him  with  a  frown.  she  caught  lucas  talking  to  his  teammates  in  the  corner  of  her  eye.  “it's  not  like  meeting  another  hockey  player  in  boston  is  a  stretch.  this  is  just  a  stupid  coincidence  and  i  really  don't  give  a  shit  if  you  believe  me  or  not.  your  precious  feelings  aren't  being  taken  into  consideration  anymore."  she  sucked  in  a  breath,  keeping  her  cool.  stay  composed,  dela.  he  doesn't  have  a  hold  on  you  anymore.  “it  not  like  i'm  the  one  who  ended  it.”

bucky   doesn't   quite   know   what   he'd   been   expecting   from   her.   this   wasn't   their   dynamic,   he   had   been   told   by   tony   to   stay   away   from   her   a   long,   long   time   ago…   but   naturally,   in   his   stubborn   fashion,   it   was   nearly   impossible.   had   he   imagined   kissing   her   someday?   absolutely.   did   he   think   it'd   come   so   soon?   no.   but   that   was   the   thing   about   said   dynamic,   their   feelings,   while   complicated,   were   passionate   and   came   about   quite   fast.   he   stares   into   her   beautiful   blue   eyes,   restricting   himself   from   placing   his   hand   on   her   cheek,   but   he   should   because   of   the   way   he   answers   her   question.   “badly…   i   want   to   kiss   you,   badly.”

“then  you  should  do  it.  we  should  do  that.”  since  bucky  was  too  hesitant  to  touch  her,  she  would  touch  him.  her  arms  slowly  raised  to  curl  around  his  neck,  face  inching  closer.  she  could  feel  his  body  stiffen  at  the  contact.  the  reasoning  behind  it  was  simple:  tony.  the  biggest  obstacle  getting  in  the  way  of  figuring  out  what  was  between  them.  if  it  was  based  on  real  feelings,  or  simply  lust  due  to  their  close  proximity  for  months.  “bucky,  this  is  me  giving  you  permission  to  kiss  me.  to  touch  me.  there's  no  reason  to  go  back  and  forth.  leave  things  unsaid.  i  don't  want  to  do  that  anymore.”  nicollette  blinked  up  at  him,  getting  lose  in  his  intense  gaze.  “i  wouldn't  be  doing  this  if  i  didn't  feel  anything.  it's  different  with  you.”

HASSIE HARRISON 2026 Fox Upfront in New York City (May 2026)

“it’s funny that you think you’re in control here.”

vivien  rarely  smiled  if  she  could  help  it,  but  found  herself  smirking  a  little  at  the  woman's  long  winded  tirade.  the  young  one's  were  the  bane  of  her  entire  existence.  entitled,  cocky,  too  sure  of  themselves  without  the  life  experience  to  back  it  up.  “jane  is  it?”  vivien  cleared  her  throat.  “one  thing  to  keep  in  mind  about  me.  i'm  always  in  control.  of  every  situation,  every  interaction.  so,  i  suggest  that  you  turn  around  and  leave  this  to  a  professional.  play  cloak  and  daggers  somewhere  else,  yeah?”
