You Chose the E-Girl, I Chose the Ivy League

Everyone at school knew about my pact with Ethan Wright, the valedictorian.

If I beat his test scores just once, we would date after graduation.

Just when our classmates were eagerly waiting for our academic rivals-to-lovers story to unfold, Ethan started online dating.

He stayed up all night carrying his "pocket healer" in ranked matches, skipped classes to meet her in person, and became half of a viral gamer-couple on TikTok.

He even intentionally bombed the last three math questions on our finals just so his score would drop enough to attend a college in her city.
