Everyone's eyes turn to Amanda after her catchy shout as she just received an email from a Youtube company recognizing her with a silver play button after she reached her first millions views as a Youtube creator. Amanda Harris, all she ever wanted was for her parents to notice her. Ever since she was small, they have been busy with their work, leaving her with other people's care. She grew up alone and reserved. Those were the times when she and Noah were friends. That's why he appreciated his presence. She started her youtube channel during her junior year and learned that people like her when she shared about beauty tips and OOTD, so she mastered and learned those things. Her eyes are full of pride as she reads her letter. As an 18-year-old high school student, she is already successful in the blogging industry. Georgina thought it was really worth the shout for joy. Noah was sitting near her table when she announced her news, and since they are classmates and of the same group of friends, he was seated near Amanda. But Noah moved to their table when he saw Georgina, he went directly in her direction, she can't help but get a little bashful about their relationship since he is famous. Georgina notices that after people from school see her and Noah together, she instantly also becomes famous. Sometimes when she walks down the corridor to get her stuff, she receives friendly greetings and warm smiles from people she just met after Noah came into her life. Noah smiles warmly as he approaches their table. Georgina looks around the place. A different kind of pride booms inside her as she knows she's also lucky to have him. At the back of her mind, she thought is more fortunate than Amanda at that time. After Amanda announced her news and, to everyone's amusement, the situation had finally returned to normal. Amanda receives many congratulatory greetings from her friends and admirers. Her table was surrounded by people. "1 million views. Wow, Amanda is something!" Georgina wanted to start a conversation with Noah. She turned her head in his direction and saw his smile with deep thought. " Haven't you two been close before? I heard it from Pamila. You know your sister. It's not my fault. I didn't ask her." She sounds jealous. Noah laughs at her sentence, cutting the small flashback he had earlier. " She is my childhood friend and classmates, and we used to be close before, but it never went further than friendship, and besides, she's not my type. You know who I like." Georgina wanted to give in, but she had other plans. Though she was trying to hide her smile at Noah's explanation and defense, she got an idea to try his patience. " That's not what I see when I see you two walking in the pavement before, she knew he also recalled the day when they just started texting and saw them walking together." Noah's face turned serious didn't like where their conversation was going. He arches his brow facing her, getting his full attention. In times like that, Georgina wanted to pinch his face and snap his shoulder. She was trying to stop her smile as she didn't want him to win the game. Their eyes lock for a long time. No one wants to lose; finally, Noah softens and grabs her hand. She smiles as it's what usually happens when she teases him. "You know it was nothing. You are just making fun of me." He said as a matter of factly while still softening. Georgina can't hold her laugh and bursts her feelings. Noah kissed her hands while she looked back at him, already settled.

I went home, opened my laptop, and clicked the button that confirmed my admission. Not to UCLA with him, but to NYU, an entire country away.

"Do I seem like an idiot to you princess?" he sassed taking another agonizinly slow step towards me. "N-no" I stuttered out a blabbering mess, unable to think straight with his sudden closeness. "Do I have to show who you belong to again Bella?" "I-don't know" I whispered out too far gone within the eyes of the silver eyed God like boy standing before me. "Then why do you defy me princess, or is it that you want me to punish you?" I was trapped within his beautiful orbs unable to register the utter madness he just voiced, the word fell off my lips almost breathless begging for him to take me. "Yes" His lips curved to the side showing his God forbidden mischievous smirk of his. I had just now registered the consequences of my stupidity.

I died peacefully in my eighties, only to shockingly wake up seventeen again, still in my childhood bedroom. It was college application day, and everything felt eerily familiar, especially my lifelong dream with best friend Jack and boyfriend Kevin: Princeton, shared dorms, and a future intertwined. But the comfort shattered an instant later. Kevin and Jack, my supposed "constants," calmly announced they were ditching the Ivy League. Their new plan? State University, staying local, all to "support" Brittany, the head cheerleader—a non-entity in my previous life—who claimed her family was in crisis. The betrayal hit like a physical blow. Suddenly, my meticulously organized SAT notes, the very tools of *my* ambition, were handed over to Brittany without a second thought. They paraded her scores, reveling in *her* success, while publicly dismissing my shock and mocking my sudden declaration of choosing UC Berkeley. At the graduation party, they treated Brittany like royalty, their arms around her, their attention solely hers, while I became an irrelevant outsider. The yearbook, a symbol of our unbreakable bond, bore their dismissive scrawls, cementing my abandonment. How could the boys who were my rocks, my future, obliterate *our* shared dream for someone they barely knew? Why did their chivalry translate into such a profound betrayal of me? The sheer injustice and confusion were a cold knot in my stomach. But I wouldn't let their misplaced heroism define me. No longer the girl who silently absorbed their choices, I clutched my Berkeley acceptance, booked a one-way flight, and definitively chose my own destiny. This time, I was playing for myself.
