In the Name of the Game

Chapter 5: Prom..

Taylor's Pov

It had been a few weeks since Lupe and I had a conversation that would probably change the rest of our lives. Both of our relationships were basically holding on by a thread... if that.. it was mainly so the two seniors didn't have to find dates. 

"I am honestly tired of the bullshit Lacy wants from me." I heard Lupe say as she laid down on my bed, my head turning towards her. She had been hiding out at my place a lot more often than not, Lacy would apparently pass by her grandparents a lot.

"I just don't get why the two of you are still together." I stated as I went and sat next to her, she rolling her eyes.

"Because Lacy doesn't want to have to look for another date and she thinks I don't know that she has been seeing someone else. She's been pissed off I don't want exactly want to do anything, I mean she just doesn't get that.. I am just not ready." She said as she looked over at me before continuing on, "She doesn't even know about my condition and she has just been getting even more frustrated with the lack of sex."

"You know you don't have to do anything you don't want to do anything you want to. Don't let her push you into anything you don't want to do." I told her as she nodded her head, before stretching even more out.  Our eyes always seemed to find each others no matter if we were alone together or in a crowed room.

I could feel myself being drawn into her, the both of our heads moving closer to one another. My situation with Drew hadn't been any better, Drew and I both knew this was just because he didn't want to go dateless.

We were both knocked out of our trance when a knock on my door broke our thoughts.

"Well I feel like I interrupted something intense happening here." Abigail said with a smirk as she looked over at the two of us, between she and Maverick they were usually with us. Those two had seriously figured out that there was definitely between Lupe and I yet had not brought it up. "Oh and Mav is talking with mama swift."

A groan escaping my lips before a laugh escaping Lupe's as she makes her way out of my room to go get them.

"Sooo you and Lupe have something going on." Abigail stated as she now made her way where Lupe had once sat.

"Great." I muttered as a laugh escaped from her.

"I was kidding, but if you want to talk I am not going to say anything." She said looking over at me, knowing that it would probably take a while with my mom I decided to open up.

"I mean I always knew that there was something going on with the two of you. Y'all's stares from across the room were intense. Honestly it would make Lacy so mad." She said with a shrug of her shoulder as I turn to look at her. "What the two of you aren't as slick as you think... well I mean for Maverick and I they aren't. People who actually pay attention and see the little clues it's so easy to get."

"Well we aren't starting anything till the both of us are completely single." I said as all that came out of her was "mhmm ok."

"Come on don't do that." I said as she shrugged her shoulders once again before talking. "T it's not what I saw just a second ago."

"Being honest there will be a few break ups happening soon..." I let the rest drift off as Abigail lets out a "finally."

My eyes darting towards hers, "come on T, I am your best friend I know when things are happening and when you aren't exactly happy."
