Brooklyn P.O.V.

I walked down the stairs with a few other girls to see Chase handing out his cards at the bottom of the stairs. "Here you go. Vote for Chase. Here you go. Vote for Chase. And don't forget to stop by the nurse's office for your free scoliosis screening, sponsored by... yours truly," he said to a passing student. I sighed and shook my head.

I then heard a horn honking and party music. I looked down the hall to see Adam driving down the hall in a mini bus. "'Scuse me! Comin' through! Who wants to ride the High School Party Bus? Whoo-hoo!" he shouted. Students all crowded around it.

"Great ride," I complimented, making my presence known.

Chase looked at me. "Really?"

"I mean not like my bike, but still," I said.

Chase shook his head and turned back to Adam. "Do you honestly believe that giving kids rides to class is gonna make the vote for you?" Chase asked.

"Who's going to class? We're just cruising the halls," Adam laughed.

"Hey, everyone," Chase shouted, getting everyone's attention. "Wouldn't you rather walk to class, knowing you're also fitting in 2% of your daily exercise requirement?" he asked. The kids looked at him, then started fawning over Adam again. "No? Okay," he said in defeat.

A few kids got onto the bus so Adam made an announcement. "Attention, party-bussers! There will be no stops, so if you're looking for a ride to class, plan your jumps accordingly," he said and the bus took off.

Leo then came up next to us. "Well... my scientific polling, which consists of all your crumpled-up business cards in the trashcan shows that Adam is beating you by a comfortable margin," he said.

"Yeah, basically," I agreed.

"If I'm gonna compete with him, I have to start thinking like a simpleminded creature, one who goes through the day on basic instinct and random impulse, like a dog or a monkey or a sea slug," Chase said.

We all looked at each other. "Or Adam," we all said.

I looked at my watch. "Oh, I gotta get to class, see ya guys," I said. I kissed Chase's cheek and fist bumped Leo before going to class.

I was leaving class only to have to scent of hamburgers and vanilla lotion hit my nose. What the heck are those two doing? I walked down the hall to see Chase at a burger stand. He handed a kid a burger. "Here you go. Enjoy you 'Chee-ase' burger!" he said with a smile. Really? Poor play on words.

Adam went right up next to Chase. "A hamburger cart? That's the best you got?" Adam asked.

"The only thing juicier than my burgers is what you're about to eat, which is a big, heaping pile of hot, tasty defeat," Chase said.

"Well, speaking of defeat, care for a foot rub?" Adam asked, motioning to two stations next to him.

"What's that?" Chase asked.

"That is my 2-minute massage stop, winning hearts and minds ten toes at a time," Adam explained. Well that explains the vanilla lotion scent. "Oh, go ahead, people. First come, first served," Adam said and all of Chase's customers ran over to the massage stop. Adam picked up one of Chase's burgers and took a bite out of it. "Mmm, good."
