When Noah had told me 'see you soon' my mind had wandered. Like, what did he mean 'see you soon'? Could it have been possible that he figured out I'm the girl from the note? Did he gain a sudden interest in me thanks to that? Did he, maybe, come to like me...? My mind had wandered like that the whole time from my walk from the principal's office to the tennis field.

Well.

Turns out I was wrong on all ends.

He's in tennis too. That's what he meant.

I let out a soft 'Oh' when I'd seen him playing around with the tennis rack.

Goodness. That was too embarrassing. Glad no one can know my thoughts but me. I sigh and pick up one of the racks and stand at the far corner far from everyone else. Bianca doesn't seem to have noticed me, or maybe she doesn't care but either way she seems to be having fun ordering the other girls around. Always so bossy.

I sigh and look around. I don't really know what I'm supposed to do. They sort of just threw me into a new environment and didn't tell me anything beforehand. Are there at least any free spaces for me to practice or something? I spot a vacant field and go there. 

Okay. That's one thing settled. Now I just need someone to practice with. Hm, there should be a girl somewhere for me...

They're all flocked around Bianca. Did she plan this...? Not a single girl for me to go to and the guys are way too smelly, no way I'm going near them.

Well, okay, there should be someone that's free at least — I look around the big space but stop when I feel a tap on my shoulder.

"Do you have anyone to practice with?" Uh-oh.

I turn around, fighting my hardest to keep a calm expression.

"N— no. Why?"

"That's good," he smiles, "we can practice together."

And there it is, that damned feeling. I bite the inside of my cheek. My stomach is twisting itself inside out, yet also feels goopy. Sensations that don't even make sense. Only you can do this to me.

I look away and nod. "Sure."

My eyes accidentally land on Bianca and hers are trained on me. She's definitely been looking for a while. She doesn't look sad or angry, instead her face is still and calm.

Yup.

This is not gonna be good for me.
