The Girl in the Hoodie is Mine
I had three simple rules: 1. Never remove the hood and mask. 2. Don’t attract attention. 3. Follow rule one and two at all costs. Simple, right? Well, I followed them religiously—until Jason came along and shattered them all. I didn’t want anyone to know my identity. I just wanted to stay in the shadows, finish school, and disappear. But no, the stupid jock had to get in my way, and now my peaceful, hidden life is in ruins. I didn’t mean to embarrass the school’s golden boy. His name? Jason. He’s the son of the country’s richest CEO. Ironically, I chose this place to hide from my own father, the man I’m trying to escape. I look too much like him, and if anyone made the connection, my cover would be blown. Hence, the hood and mask I wear every single day. But now, instead of just hiding from my father, I have to watch out for Jason, too. He’s vowed to make my life miserable. I still can’t figure out his obsession with me—one minute he’s humiliating me in front of everyone, and the next he’s trying to kiss me behind the bleachers.
Date with Dylan
Dylan's POV:
As I waited outside the diner, I must've shifted my stance a dozen times, trying to find the perfect cool, casual pose. At one point, I even leaned against the car in what I thought was a "James Dean" look, but quickly felt ridiculous and straightened up. I wasn't usually this nervous around girls, but something about Ella had me second-guessing everything tonight. I mean, come on, I'd even brought the Lamborghini. Girls love cool rides, right?
When she finally stepped out, still in her hoodie, I was kind of relieved. The hoodie look was part of what intrigued me about her in the first place. She wasn't like all the other girls I knew—no fancy dresses or perfect makeup, just... her. But when she saw me standing there in front of my Lambo, her reaction wasn't what I expected at all.
