The Art of Hating Noah West | Rewriting

Natalia Winters doesn't believe in distractions. She believes in winning. In late nights, in perfect scores, in chasing validation like it's the only thing keeping her alive. People call her cold, ruthless, heartless-she doesn't care. Because feelings don't get you to the top.

Noah West is her only competition. The golden boy. The former quarterback. The one everyone loves, with his easy charm and effortless brilliance. The only one who has ever kept up with her.

She's spent years watching him-competing with him, comparing herself to him, chasing after him. Because before they were rivals, before their names were permanently linked on every leaderboard, before it became them against each other-

He was hers.

Her first friend. The boy who taught her how to cheat on spelling tests in third grade, who raced her home after school, who made her laugh before she learned that ambition was more important than joy.

But childhood doesn't last forever. And neither did they.

Now, the final competition of their academic careers is here. One scholarship. One winner. Years of rivalry have come down to this. And if she has to burn every last feeling she has left to take it-

So be it.
