Charlie is my best friend. Ive known him since I was 16, we were inseparable for years.
This is that Story, of how Charlie and I Stopped being friends, then became friends again, then started sleeping together??? But wait I'm getting ahead of myself.
Who am i? Well, I'm Savannah Montgomery, Daughter of Stephanie Coyle and Alex Montgomery, Sister of Zachary and Derek, Best Friend of Charlie Swift. I'm a Straight A's Student, Captain of the Girls Ice Hockey Team at my College, In the Top of my Class, And Graduated High School as Valedictorian, All while playing in a competitive Hockey League Trying to get into a good college. Overall I've made a pretty good name for myself, throughout most of my high school career and into my college life.
Can i gush about Charlie real quick? Well I'm gonna do it anyways- Charlie Swift is the most amazing guy I've ever met! He is a Pretty Good Student, He's the Top Defenseman at our college, (yes, we did end up going to the same school) Drafted at 18 by the Arizona Coyotes (in the FIRST ROUND! Which is a Big deal!!) so essentially Charlie is just trying to keep his grades up, so that he can play in the games this season so that the Arizona Scouts can continue to watch him, so that hopefully one day after his collegiate career is over he can either play a year or two in the Minors (the American hockey league) or in the NHL (which is the main goal he has)
So anyways that's us. Now lets get into this very long story
.

.
Wait, before we get started, i need to warn you about Jessica, Charlies Self Centered Girlfriend. She Hates me, I'm not to fond of her, and Charlie doesn't know any of this.
Jessica thinks because she's Popular here at Boston University, and is Head Cheerleader that she belongs with Charlie. Like doesn't she realize that Cheerleaders aren't any part of any hockey game? Anyways i digress. Let's Begin again.....
....THE YEAR IS 2015 SAVANNAH AND CHARLIE ARE SOPHOMORES IN HIGH SCHOOL IN DALLAS TEXAS....
"Come on! The game is about to start" i heard my younger brother Zachary yell at me before pulling on my arm running to our seats. Here we were about to watch the Bobcats Hockey Team, about to play the final game, hoping to win state champions, something our county had never won before.
......2 periods of hockey later....
late in the game we we're down by 1, we just need one more goal to tie it up
"One Minute remaining in the third period" i hear the voice over the speakers call out
50 seconds.....40 seconds....30...20...10...
"SWIFT SHOOTS AND HE SCORES!!! THE BOBCATS JUST TIED IT UP WITH 2.5 SECONDS LEFT IN THE GAME" the crowd erupts, in half cheering half very disappointed fans.
Overtime. The game is going to overtime. The most important game of the schools entire existence is resting on these boys to score first. These 15, 16, 17 year olds. Our entire schools fate rests on the shoulders of these teenage boys..were doomed.
However i do remember thinking that that goal was "badass". Overtime began just a few minutes later, 3 on 3, 5 minute overtime. The only way to do overtime.
I bet just about now you're thinking that the bobcats won, right? Well they didn't. With about 1 minute 23 seconds left, our goalie let a one timer in. Sure we didn't win state, but our school, heck our county, hasn't ever made it that close to winning any sort of championship, ever! So we were proud of those boys regardless of the outcome.
"Hey there's a party at the school, in the gym for the team making it far if you wanna join me" Nickolas told me, as me and my brother Zach were walking back out to my car "I'd love to" i told him "but i have my brother with me." He coughed trying to get my attention
"Just take me home, and you can meet him there, mom and Derek are home" Nickolas smiled at me listening to Zach Speak
"Okay, Zach. Yeah, Nick ill meet you in about 30 mins at school!" He nodded and smiled his perfect smile At me, running off to his car
* BACK AT HOME*
As soon as I turned off the car, Zach runs into the house screaming "MOM!!!! VANNY HAS A DATE" i slowly walk into the house knowing I'm gonna get totally grilled over this date, that's not even an official date. My mom stood in the kitchen with her arms crossed, not quite glaring at me, but also not staring me down, I'm sure you know the kind of look I'm talking about.
" so, vanny, i hear you have a date today" she said slyly i rolled my eyes "is it okay if i go? It's for the hockey team, i was invited by Nick to come"
She hesitated before finally saying "yes I suppose so. But at the latest you need to be home at 9pm, you have chores when you come home" i thanked her a million times, kissing her on the cheek i ran upstairs to change my clothes into something more party appropriate and there on a little bit of lipstick and then headed out, yelling "Bye mom, love you!" Before running out the door to my car. "Don't forget 9 o'clock" i heard before the door closed.
I hopped into my car, plugging in my phone to the AUX cord, and A Team by Ed Sheeran automatically started playing over the speakers. I slightly laughed, before putting my "Car Jams" playlist on shuffle, and Taylor swifts Red starts playing. So then once the music was set up i bucked on up, and backed up and pulled out of the drive way, and made my way over to the high school for this party for the hockey players. In all honesty i wasn't super thrilled to be at this party. Until i bumped into him.......
