Y/N remembers exactly what they called her. The fat girl. The easy target. The girl boys laughed about wanting because apparently the idea of finding her beautiful was a joke. And she especially remembers Nate Calloway—the gorgeous, wealthy golden boy who somehow always seemed to be standing close enough to hear every cruel word. What Y/N never knew was that Nate had been hopelessly in love with her. He was simply too much of a coward to admit it. So instead of defending her, he protected his precious reputation and joined in. Years later, college brings them face-to-face again. Nate is still infuriatingly handsome, obscenely privileged, and surrounded by the same wealthy crowd. But Y/N isn’t the insecure girl he remembers. She’s confident, curvy, gorgeous—and completely uninterested in giving any of them the satisfaction of knowing they once broke her. Especially Nate. Now he gets to watch other men notice her. Flirt with her. Make her laugh. Touch the woman he once wanted desperately but was too ashamed to claim. And suddenly, Nate doesn’t care who knows the truth. He loved her then. He wants her now. But Y/N remembers everything. And if Nate Calloway thinks a pretty apology and that devastating smile will earn him forgiveness, he’s about to discover just how fucking good he looks on his knees.

@KissedByChaos_The bass thrummed through the floorboards before you even reached the front door. A sprawling off-campus house, all warm light spilling onto the porch and bodies spilling out of it, red plastic cups in hand.
