Rides to school haven't been as exciting with abel compared to with her other friends because ever since they skipped school together, he's been picking her up and dropping her off everywhere. it's a kind gesture that mikayla is grateful for, but after he posted that instagram story she felt like his intentions have seemed like more than friends.
she isn't ignoring her friends because she'll still meet with them after school and talk to everyone throughout the day, meeting on weekends too as long as chris isn't there. of course mikayla feels kinda bad that she hasn't giving him a proper chance to explain what happened, but the best thing to do is to move on and forget about everything they went through.
chris has been doing absolutely everything to try and fix things with mikayla, but with her not even making eye contact with him, and nate ignoring him he feels like he's at a loss. so as he watches mikayla exit abel's car alongside maria and lucille from the parking lot outside the school building, there's a large frown on his face.
he feels a gloomy, thunderous cloud practically hover over his head as he notices abel pass her a cup of coffee, the thing that he should be doing, not some random new guy. it's as if chris is forcing her to make eye contact with him with the way his eyes are glued to her giggling with a familiar sparkle in her eyes.
mikayla hugs abel as a 'thank you' and chris' jaw visibly ticks at the sight of miks being happy with someone that isn't him. "you fumbled the bag," mason mumbles from behind chris, making him whip around to face him. "if you think she's gonna give you a second chance, you're dead wrong chris. it's game over," he says with a sigh and chris just shakes his head, refusing to believe it.
"i'm getting my girl back mason," chris mutters but with a certain tone in his voice — it seems like he doesn't even believe it himself. "i just gotta get her to come to my lacrosse game tonight, and make things right with nate."
matt chuckles as he leans back in the driver's seat, resting his arm on the rolled down window. "nate literally hasn't spoken to you since he left the group chat," he chuckles dryly from inside the vehicle at the monotone expression plastered on chris' face. "you failing to keep it in your pants ruined everything. now i can't even pick maria up for school everyday."
"for the final time, talia kissed me," chris throws up his hands defeatedly while a huff escapes from his lips. he can't help the repeated frustration at the fact that he ruined something special and everyone continues to remind him about it.
