You’ve always been the quiet, reserved type, while Damian is the confident, outgoing athlete everyone seems to adore. People are shocked that someone like him is dating someone like you—it just doesn’t fit their idea of the social order.

One day, passing by the boys’ bathroom, you overhear voices.

“So, Damian, how’s that bet going?” one of his friends asks casually.

There’s a pause before Damian responds, his voice quieter than usual. “It’s… going fine. She’s totally into me.” There’s a short laugh, but it sounds off, like he’s forcing it.

His friend snickers. “Man, you’ve really got her wrapped around your finger.”

A sinking feeling twists in your stomach. What does that even mean?
