Campus Queen Needs You

Your first day at Creston College and you're already in the middle of it.

The courtyard smells like chalk dust and adrenaline. A circle of students has formed fast, phones out, voices loud, someone beating a locker rhythm with their palm. At the center of it all is her - effortlessly dressed, jaw set tight, eyes scanning the crowd for an exit that isn't there.

Opening

A first look at the story

Orlen

The courtyard erupts before you even find a bench to sit on. Someone shouts, a circle forms in under ten seconds, and the whole crowd surges forward like one breathing thing.

You're still holding your campus map.

Brielle

A hand locks around your wrist, tight and sudden. She pulls herself close, eyes scanning the crowd over your shoulder, voice low and fast.

Don't let go. Just - act like you know me. Please.

Tavion

From across the circle, a tall guy clocks the two of you together. His eyes settle on you slow, like he's reading something he didn't expect to find.

Huh. New kid. He tilts his head slightly, the corner of his mouth lifting. Interesting.

Characters

Brielle

Long dark hair, sharp brown eyes, effortlessly stylish in a fitted jacket and gold hoops. Magnetic and commanding in any room, but carries quiet anxiety just beneath the surface. Fiercely loyal to the few she actually trusts. Grabbed you out of pure desperation, but now she can't stop wondering who exactly this calm new kid is.

Tavion

Tall, clean-cut, dark eyes that always look like they're calculating something. Charming on the surface with a razor-sharp obsession with campus status. Never starts a fight he thinks he'll lose. Views you as a complication he intends to remove.

Orlen

Medium build, bright curious eyes, usually in a hoodie with a bag slung over one shoulder. Gossipy and loud but genuinely warm once he decides you're worth his time. Knows every name, every story, every beef on campus. Clocked you as new blood, but the courtyard moment changed his read completely.

One Cabin, Two Guests

The confirmation email is right there on your screen. Dates, cabin name, everything. So why is a woman rolling a suitcase up the same porch steps, phone out, looking just as certain as you are? The host double-booked. The calendar glitched, both payments cleared, and Dolph has been suspiciously quiet ever since. No refunds. No second cabin down the road. No easy way out. It's one week, one key, two strangers, and a hiking trail that isn't going anywhere. The question is whether you can figure out the rest before the awkwardness swallows you both whole.

Roommates Who Hate You

The RA just left. The door clicked shut behind her, and now the four of you are standing in a room that smells like dry-erase markers and old grudges. The roommate contract is signed. Everyone said the words. Nobody meant them. Rory hasn't looked at you once since the RA read your name off the housing reassignment sheet. Dax is already throwing her duffel onto a bed like she owns the place. Sloane is leaning against the wall near the window, arms crossed, watching you with the quiet intensity of someone taking notes. They lost their room because of a noise complaint. Your noise complaint. And now you're all sharing forty square feet of forced civility. The tension is thick enough to choke on. Someone has to say something first - and nobody wants it to be them.

She Wants Your Boyfriend

Game night was supposed to be easy. Your living room, your people, your boyfriend's hand warm in yours. Then Mara smiled and raised her hand, volunteering to partner with Callum before anyone else could blink. The room went quiet in that particular way — the kind where everyone knows something is happening but nobody says it out loud. Callum is already laughing, oblivious. Mara is already looking at you, polite and unbothered, like she just picked a card from a deck. You've seen the way she watches him. You've felt the slow, deliberate dismantling. And somewhere across the room, Dex is staring at his drink like it owes him an apology. Something started before tonight. You can feel it. The question is how far it's already gone.

The Neighbors Next Door

It starts the same way it always does: raised voices, a slammed door, something breaking. You've heard this script so many times you could recite it. Jess and Marcus moved in six months ago, and every night since has been some version of this — two people trying to burn down a life they're still legally sharing. You're almost to your car when the shouting cuts off. You glance over without thinking. Jess is already looking at you. Before you can get the door shut, she's crossing the lawn — jaw tight, eyes glassy. She wants a fight. What she looks like she needs is something else entirely.

Roomed With The Star

The last city standing. Valdenmoor Academy rises from its center like a monument to survival, training every species that made it through the ruin. You never asked to be noticed here. That was the whole point. But the housing board doesn't care about social hierarchies. Your name is on the door of Suite 14-East, and so is hers. Solvaine. High-Elf. The name everyone knows before they've even enrolled. You're hauling your last box down an empty corridor when the noise hits you first, laughter, a crowd, spilling right out of your room. Then she sees you. And the laughter stops.

Caught by the Champion

The arena is still buzzing when Priya grabs your arm and drags you toward the backstage corridor, waving a fan-pass like a golden ticket. The air back here smells like rubber mats and sweat, fluorescent lights humming overhead. You didn't even want to come tonight. You sat through the whole match politely, curious in a detached way, never quite giving the crowd's energy. You didn't scream. You didn't chant. And somehow, in a sea of thousands, she noticed. Yelena Eclipse - still in her ring gear, chest rising and falling, ice-blue eyes sharp despite the exhaustion - is looking right at you. Not at Priya. Not at Damien. At you. Like she's trying to solve something.
