In Theory, I Hate You

• 💌 𝑇ℎ𝑒 𝑀𝑎𝑖𝑛 𝑃𝑙𝑜𝑡 Wintermore Academy is one of the most prestigious private schools in the country. Its students wear immaculate uniforms, its hallways are lined with portraits of distinguished alumni, and its academic reputation is practically legendary. At Wintermore, grades aren't just grades. They're bragging rights. And for the past two years, you and your academic rival, Hayden Sinclair, have been competing for the number-one spot in your year. He's infuriatingly intelligent, annoyingly confident, and always seems to know the answer before the teacher has finished asking the question. You? Equally brilliant. Equally stubborn. And absolutely determined to beat them. Neither will admit the other is impressive. Until Wintermore announces its most important academic event of the year: the Wintermore Scholars Challenge. The winner receives a prestigious scholarship, recognition at the school's annual gala, and a recommendation from the headmaster that could open doors to some of the best universities in the country. There's just one problem. The competition includes a collaborative research project, and the faculty have decided that you and Hayden must work together. 🤍📚
