I got dumped by my online boyfriend after I finally got accepted into his college. He sent me a picture of my own sister and said: "I've fallen for her. I'll make it up to you." I laughed. "Well, she can be your main chick and I'll be your side piece. I just can't live without you." He got annoyed. "Silly girl, I cheated on you and I have ED. I'm not good enough for you." I was just about to tell him the girl in the photo was me. But then he sent me a jaw-droppingly handsome photo. "This is my roommate, the campus heartthrob. His family is rich, he's never dated, and he's packing 8 inches. Let me set you up with him, okay?" I swallowed hard. "Fine, but don't you dare come crawling back to me." He promised confidently: "Don't worry. Whoever begs to get back together is a dog." Later, this usually arrogant, bad-boy type was wearing a leather collar, kneeling at my feet like a dog, crying and begging: "Please, let's get back together. Or he can be your main guy and I'll be your side piece. I don't have ED, I'm a machine in bed." "Please?" 01 [Babe, let's break up.] Honestly, this online relationship was more casual than serious for me. But getting a breakup text from Liam out of nowhere still surprised me. I called him to ask why. Liam was very upfront: "I saw a freshman today. She completely fits my aesthetic. It's like she was custom-made for me." "I feel like if I can't be with her, my life will have no meaning." "So babe, let me go. I'll compensate you." I laughed. "You used to say that if you couldn't be with me, your life would have no meaning." Liam coughed guiltily. "Guys say all kinds of bullshit when they're chasing a girl. But this is different. I'm serious about her." Serious after just seeing her? Yeah, right. Besides, Liam and I had been online dating for a year. He was a high-IQ straight-A student, with sharp, handsome features and slightly upturned eyes that looked like they had hooks in them. He was exactly my favorite type of arrogant bad boy. I wanted to at least taste him before we broke up. I tried to make him stay: "A lot of people say I'm super pretty too. Why don't you look at me first before you decide?" I opened my photo gallery. "No need. I've seen your pictures. I know you're pretty, but you have that mature, boss-babe vibe. I prefer cute, petite girls." My photos gave off a boss-babe vibe? "Liam, are you sure? I'm as far from a mature boss-babe as you can get." Liam sent a photo over. "I lied when I said I didn't care about looks and never asked for a photo. I actually went through your old profile pictures and saw what you looked like a long time ago." I looked at the photo he sent. It was a beautiful woman in a black leather jacket, looking incredibly cool, sitting on a motorcycle. I was just about to say that wasn't me, but my older sister, Chloe. Then Liam sent another photo of me. "Look at my new crush." "People say you two look a bit alike around the eyes, but your vibes are completely different." "You're beautiful and badass, you look cooler than me. If your voice was my type, I actually would have chased you." "But she's exactly what I want. Big eyes, small face, and her voice is so sweet. She totally stole my soul." "Anyway, I'm just showing you her picture to tell you I'm serious. Don't do anything weird with her photo." I couldn't believe Liam liked me this much. I burst out laughing. I decided to mess with him. "Well, she can be your main chick and I'll be your side piece. I just can't live without you." Liam sighed heavily. "Silly girl, I cheated on you and I have ED. I'm not good enough for you." Liar. He was the captain of the college basketball team, with incredible stamina and crazy long legs. When we talked on the phone, his "solo sessions" lasted at least half an hour. I was just about to tell him the second photo was actually me. When he suddenly sent over a jaw-droppingly handsome photo. "This is my roommate, Cole. The campus heartthrob. His family is rich, he's never had a girlfriend, and he's packing 8 inches. Let me set you up with him, okay?" The guy in the photo, Cole, had pale skin, red lips, and a high nose bridge. He was wearing a clean, crisp white button-down shirt. The fingers holding his pen were long and elegant, his nails neatly trimmed. Sitting at a sunlit desk, he looked like a piece of flawless jade. My heart literally skipped a beat. And that skipped beat made me realize something. I didn't actually have a "favorite type" of handsome guy. I was just thirsty. Besides, I hadn't met any guys I felt a stronger connection with right now. I might as well try talking to Cole first. But... "Will he really talk to me?" "He will. He and I are best friends. If he doesn't talk to you, I'll hold a knife to his neck." I laughed. "Alright, but don't you dare come begging for me back." Liam promised confidently: "Don't worry, whoever begs to get back together is a dog." Heh. Did he really think I would beg to get back together? I used to secretly date online because my parents were super strict about my studies. Now that I got accepted into UCLA, my family was fully supportive of me dating. I couldn't wait to date every hot guy I could find. I would never go back to an ex. "Where are you going to college? I gave your Snapchat to Cole, I'll tell him to take you out on a date tomorrow." Before, to surprise Liam, I only told him I was going to college in Los Angeles, but didn't specify UCLA. But there was no point in hiding it anymore. I was just about to tell him. "Never mind, you guys can figure it out yourselves. I need to go prep for my confession to my little crush tomorrow. Bye." Liam hung up. Immediately after, I got a friend request from Cole on Snapchat. 02 But I played hard to get and didn't hit [Accept]. Today was move-in day, and someone took a picture of me and posted it on the campus confession page, making me a minor celebrity. The next day, during freshman orientation, a lot of people came specifically to see me. Among them was Liam. He was holding a massive bouquet of red roses and three highly sought-after Sonny Angel blind boxes, standing right in front of me. He was very direct: "Hi Maya, I'm Liam from the Computer Science department. I'm a junior. I fell in love with you at first sight. Will you be my girlfriend?" I looked up and studied Liam closely. Honestly, he was even better-looking than his photos. The outline of his abs was faintly visible under his black t-shirt, and the muscles and veins on his arms were prominent. He practically oozed sexual tension. The students watching started cheering: "Say yes! Say yes! That's Liam, the CS god, the face of the school! Usually, it's girls chasing him to confess!" "I can't believe I'm seeing the CS god confess his love in my lifetime. He used to stay away from women, always looking so untouchable. I used to think he was wasting his good looks." The Liam who talked dirty to me online had absolutely nothing to do with "untouchable." I was amused by the comments from the crowd. Liam mistook my smile for approval. He flashed a confident, winning smile. "Sorry, I don't want to be your girlfriend." Liam's smile froze on his face. The cheering crowd also went silent. The atmosphere was incredibly awkward. "Why?" Because last night you broke up with me and introduced me to your roommate. But I wasn't going to say that. I was waiting for him to figure it out himself. When we first met in an online game, he liked my sweet voice, and I liked his handsome face. To spend more time with him, I pretended to be a bad student and constantly bugged him to tutor me. He was incredibly patient, not only teaching me but also frequently sending me money on Venmo. Total boyfriend material. But I didn't expect him to change his mind and break up right when we were about to meet in person. Seeing as he didn't seem too deeply invested in me, I wouldn't label him a total jerk. "I already have someone I'm interested in." "So you're not dating yet? Then give me a chance to pursue you, okay? I promise I'll treat you better than that guy." "No thanks, I'm not interested in you." Liam looked incredibly awkward. There were gasps of disbelief from the crowd. "But I have to have you. I'm not giving up. Just take these gifts for now." Those Sonny Angels were really cute. But I didn't want to get tangled up with Liam. I shook my head and refused. Liam tried to force me to take them: "If you don't take them, I'm throwing them in the trash." "Then throw them away." I don't know if Liam threw them away or not. I linked arms with my roommate, Chloe, and walked away without looking back. Chloe: "You're so bold, rejecting Liam in front of everyone." "It's fine. It's a good way to use him to warn off other guys who want to confess to me, so I don't have guys bothering me every day." "That's true. I saw a lot of guys on the confession page saying they wanted to come find you." Speaking of that, I remembered Cole. I accepted his friend request and agreed to have dinner with him. 03 At the restaurant. Cole was sitting by the window. Seeing me sit down across from him, his eyes lit up, then he looked stunned. I smiled at him: "I'm the girlfriend Liam set you up with, Babe." "Are you wondering why I look different from my photo?" Cole hummed a "yeah," his voice deep and pleasant. Seeing me staring straight at him, his ears suddenly turned bright red. He drank some water to hide his shyness and nervousness. I was surprised. And a bit conflicted. I didn't expect to find such an innocent guy these days. I kind of didn't want to date him anymore. After all, I was in it for a good time, not a serious commitment. But he was really hot. And his lips were red and soft—they looked very kissable. Sigh. I'll let him choose for himself. "So, do you want to date me, or do you want to date the girl in the photo?" "If it's the girl in the photo, I can introduce you." "You." Cole didn't hesitate. Well, you can't blame me then. After all, he might not be that serious about me either. Or, like Liam, he might be serious for a while and then change his mind. So whatever, let's just enjoy the moment. "Liam said you're 8 inches, is that true?" "I'm not talking about your shoe size." I asked bluntly. Cole froze completely. His face turned beet red. He couldn't speak for a good while. I frowned: "You don't? If you don't, then we can't date." Cole looked around, then whispered: "I do." "Can I see?" "R-right now?" "No, wait until we finish eating." Cole nodded, the blush on his face deepening. He handed me the menu. Seeing it was my first time there, he carefully recommended the restaurant's specialties. Halfway through the meal, Liam called Cole. The volume was pretty loud, so I heard everything. Liam: "Did you meet Babe?" Cole: "Yeah." "I didn't lie, did I? She's gorgeous, right?" "Yeah." "Then treat her well, and try to spend all your free time with her. Don't give her time to think about me. That Maya girl is harder to chase than I thought. I need to focus on figuring out how to win her over, I don't have the energy to deal with Babe." "Yeah." "Thanks, man. You being my friend is a real blessing. I'll treat you to a big dinner tomorrow." "No need, I'm eating right now. Hanging up." "Okay." Cole put down his phone. I suddenly remembered something: "Do you know my name?" Cole paused for a few seconds: "No." "My name is..." "Sorry." Cole suddenly interrupted me. "I need to use the restroom." Cole walked away pretty quickly after saying that. Like he really couldn't hold it. I kept eating, and when Cole came back, I forgot to tell him my name. After leaving the restaurant, Cole proactively offered to get a hotel room. Me!! 04 Did I misjudge him? He's actually that open-minded! Cole seemed to read my thoughts and hurriedly explained: "Don't misunderstand, I'm not doing this to sleep with you." "You can inspect the goods first. I didn't lie to you. I want you to feel secure being my girlfriend." Oh, I see. But I hadn't seen that kind of thing before. To suddenly go look at it, it felt super awkward. "Why don't we wait a few days? Getting a hotel room just to look at it seems like a waste of money." "It's only a waste if it doesn't make you feel secure. Besides, I have plenty of money." Cole was very insistent. I felt like he was a bit too innocent for his own good. And also incredibly eager to be accommodating. I agreed. Afterward. A blushing Cole looked at a blushing me. "I'm very traditional." "I showed you my most important thing. If anything happens between us in the future, you can't break up with me." My mind was completely occupied with wondering how... Would it really feel that good to use... I didn't catch a word Cole was saying, just mumbled an "okay." Cole was thrilled and took me back to campus. As we neared my dorm building, I saw a couple making out in the distance. I stopped and asked Cole: "Can I kiss you?" "Yes." Cole, ears red, cupped my face and gently kissed my lips. Then quickly pulled away. He seemed very nervous. His fingers were trembling slightly. He looked absolutely adorable. And his lips were so sweet and soft. Just a light touch like that wasn't nearly enough to satisfy my craving. "Can you kiss me longer? Kiss me harder?" "I'll try. This is my first time kissing someone. If I hurt you, let me know." "Mhm." Cole leaned down and kissed me again. It was better this time. But he didn't use tongue. Just as I was about to pry his teeth open. Liam's shocked voice came from behind us. "Cole! Babe?" Cole and I both froze. Cole pulled me into his arms, burying my face in his chest. His hand stroked my face, seemingly trying to hide my identity. But I didn't have time to think about that. My thoughts were entirely consumed by the frantic pounding of his heart. If his heart raced this fast just from a kiss. Then what if... My mind was swimming in dirty thoughts. Liam walked over step by step, sounding happy: "You brought Babe to visit campus!" Ugh. It seemed Liam had no idea that I, the "scumbag," was studying here. Cole's voice was cool: "Why are you here?" "I came to drop something off for Maya." "Congratulations, you guys got together so fast." Cole gave a very faint "mhm". Liam looked at my back and smiled: "Babe, you've been hiding in Cole's arms this whole time. Are you embarrassed I caught you kissing? Aren't you going to say hi?" I wasn't embarrassed at all. And I did want to say hi. So I turned around with a wicked grin and flashed Liam a smile. 05 But Liam ran towards my roommate, Chloe. Leaving me with only his tall back. The autumn mosquitoes were numerous and vicious. They bit my bare calves below my skirt, making them itchy and painful. I bent down to scratch my leg. Cole asked: "Did a mosquito bite you?" "Yeah." "Then you should go upstairs. Liam looks busy and probably won't have time for us. I'll tell him later." I thought he had a point. "Alright then, see you tomorrow." I walked towards my dorm building. I vaguely heard Cole let out a long sigh of relief. Looking back. He was already walking towards Liam. Not long after I got back to my dorm. I received a friend request from Liam on my burner WeChat account that I used to talk to classmates. The contact was shared via a business card. I guessed Chloe gave it to him. And I was right. As soon as Chloe got back to the dorm, she told me: "That Liam is really going all out to pursue you." "To get you to accept his gifts, he bought sunscreen, whitening masks, and perfume for everyone in our dorm, plus a ton of snacks, and even bought Pepto-Bismol, saying he was afraid we'd get heatstroke during orientation." "He was also worried you wouldn't accept them, so he wanted me to lie and say my family sent them." "I didn't want to do it, but he kept begging me. I had no choice, so I gave him your WeChat. You won't blame me, right?" I smiled: "It's fine. It would be silly not to accept the stuff, but I haven't accepted his friend request." "That's good. Honestly, Liam is handsome and generous. You'd definitely be happy with him." "..." Liam really knows how to buy people's loyalty. I haven't even accepted his gifts yet, and my roommate is already speaking up for him. Liam called me. "You're back at school?" "...Yeah." "I just happened to run into my goddess's roommate earlier. Next time you come, I'll show you around properly." Liam sounded genuine and happy. I deliberately confessed. "I actually go to UCLA." Liam let out a scoffing laugh. "Can you stop making me laugh? With your grades, you got into UCLA?" "Or are you just blaming me for breaking up with you and trying to mess with me?" "I'm telling you, seriously, don't do this. Cole is a thousand times better than me. You should just be with him." I swear, whatever. Let him be a clown if he wants. Besides, speaking of Cole, I had some NSFW topics to discuss. I walked to the balcony and closed the door. "Can you teach Cole a thing or two? I feel like he's too innocent." "What do you mean?" "When I talk to him, he blushes. When we walk, he doesn't even know to hold my hand. When we kiss, he wants me to make the first move, and he doesn't even know how to use tongue." Liam laughed: "He's never had a girlfriend. Isn't it normal that he doesn't know these things? What, do you want me to find some porn for him to watch?" That would be great for me. I happily said: "Yes, yes." Liam was silent for a moment, his voice sounding a bit disappointed: "Why does it feel like you're not sad at all after we broke up?"
