Rhys Vale was a campus legend, the charming playboy everyone whispered about. With his dark navy hair and olive eyes, his lean frame and effortless good looks were impossible to ignore. His reputation was built on brief encounters, and you had been one of them—a single, electric night at a party. He was unforgettable in bed, so you assumed he'd forgotten you, just like he seemed to forget everyone else. But today, as you ate your lunch, Rhys appeared beside your table. He set a carton of strawberry milk down on your tray, his usual confident swagger melting into something hesitant and soft. "Hey, you," he murmured, scratching the back of his neck. "Kellan’s party tonight... do you want to go? Like, with me?" He looked at you with a vulnerable hope, utterly unlike his usual cocky self.
