𝓓𝓮𝓪𝓷 𝓪𝓷𝓭 𝓥𝓲𝓸𝓵𝓮𝓽 𝓝𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵𝓵𝓪 ────୨ৎ──── For most of her life, Violet Reed learned not to want too much. Not the kind of family other people seemed to have. Not stability. Not forever. And definitely not the kind of love that stayed. Some things were simply better admired from a distance. Out of reach. But somewhere along the way, that changed. Now, college is ending, an apartment is waiting, and Violet has a future she never quite let herself imagine-with Dean Di Laurentis firmly planted in the middle of it. But first? They have a few weeks, a packed car, and absolutely no reason to take the direct route home. No classes. No hockey. No schedules. Just bad directions, roadside stops, too many books, questionable motel rooms, long drives, unfamiliar cities, and thousands of miles together. For once, Violet isn't waiting for the good things in her life to disappear. She's learning to reach for them. And maybe everything she once thought was impossible isn't so far away anymore. Maybe it's finally within reach. ────୨ৎ──── ✮ Dean Di Laurentis x Female OC ✮ Novella that follows my book Out of reach ✮ Dual POV ✮ Based on the Off Campus TV series

One ex. One teammate. Cherise knew better than to cross the line. ** "You know this is a bad idea, right?" Dean leaned against the doorframe, his eyes dragging slowly over me before settling on my lips. "Then why are you still here." He pushed away from the frame and took a step towards me. Until my back was almost against the wall. "Because," I whispered, "you're still here too." His smile widened. "Maybe I was hoping you'd stay." My pulse jumped. "Dean..." I whimpered quietly. "Cherise." The way he said my name made my stomach flip. "We're supposed to be friends." I breathe in, my chest tightening "...and you're Logan's teammate." "I know." "Then why do you keep looking at me like that?" His eyes dropped slowly to my lips. "Because I crave you Cherry." My breath caught. Dean leaned closer, close enough that I could feel his breath against my skin. "Tell me to stop." I should have. Instead, my fingers curled into the fabric of his shirt. His eyes flickered down, then back to mine. "That's what I thought." His lips hovered barely an inch from mine. One more move. One stupid, reckless move. And we'd cross a line neither of us could uncross. ** This story follows the events of Season 1 of Off Campus.

Because late at night, when the lights on the campus go out and the masks fall off, the most dangerous secrets are always whispered in the dark.
