You Smile I Smile

Trick or Treat

You Smile I Smile [3]

(Max's POV)
After a stressing day of practice, I removed my basketball jersey right in the middle of the basketball court making my muscles flex. I don't mean to brag but, I am kinda hot. I heard some whistles in the background and it made me turn my head and look only to see the cheerleaders sitting on the bleachers whistling cat calls.

I started to head to the locker room after sending a quick wink towards the cheerleaders and caught a sight of one of the girls seated on the bleachers. The girl I've been crushing on since sophomore year. Seated on the far corner, away from all the girls on the cheerleading squad, was Juliet. She was concentrating on a book in her hands with her hair in a messy bun which looked really good on her.

Juliet loved to read. She also loved sitting alone and she never wanted attention. Some of the things I love about her.

She glanced my way for a milisecond and the look she gave me was one of disgust. She probably thinks I'm a player who sleeps with anything on a skirt but I'm not that kind of guy. Yes I have dated a few girls before and I admit some of them lasted only a few weeks but that was because I could never find a person that I truly wanted to settle down with. And I think thats about to change.

•••Rhylee's POV•••

I am kind of known in school because of my talent in playing pranks.Its been a while since I've played a prank on someone and I would say my pranks are pretty good. Most are just petty pranks such as changing the cream of the oreos in the cafeteria to toothpaste. But when it comes to my big pranks, its going to be chaos.

Once I started a food fight and didnt get in trouble. I've found a way to not get blamed. The teachers see me as the good girl with straight A's and a perfect record but what they don't know is that I start most of the troubles in school. But that was a long time ago. I've decided that I'm too old for pranks. Until today. So you can see that Max is in big trouble.

I was just about to leave the boys locker room and to my next class but I noticed Max starin- no gaping at a girl at the bleachers who I didn't know. His stare was filled with something I was scared of. It was admiration. It was Juliet; the girl he liked since sophomore year.

My heart swelled at the sight. My heart swelled knowing he wouldn't look at me the same way he was looking at her.

I really thought he returned the feelings I had for him. I thought he felt the same way as me since I knew him since childhood. Turns out he's still into her. It seems unfair for him to pick a girl he barely even knew over the girl he knew his whole life. But who's to blame but me. I was stupid enough to fall for him and get my heart broken.

Why did I have to be so stupid. I knew there was a chance that this would happen. I knew there was a chance that Max and I wouldn't end up together. But I placed that aside when I realized that I do like him in more ways than one. I should've known.

I place these thoughts aside for now and focused on the task at hand. Pranking Max.

°°°°°Max's POV°°°°°

I can't seem to get her out of my head. Whenever I close my eyes her face is the first thing I think of. Even while taking a long shower, she is still in my head. Its been a long time since I've felt this way towards her. Ever since sophomore year, when I realized I liked her, I've tried to get her attention but she doesn't seem to notice me. So I started to get over this little crush and move on. But all those feelings I've felt towards her came rushing back and I can't stop it. Its like she's tatooed in my brain. Maybe I still have a chance, maybe I can make her like me. I smiled at the thought of Juliet and I together. I would be able to kiss her whenever I wanted to. I would be able to be possessive of her. I would give it a try.

I can't believe I thought of all these things during a shower. Thinking about life is done in the shower.

I stepped out of the shower room with a towel wrapped around my waist and another towel hanging on my shoulder. The locker room was now empty due to how long I took in the shower. I opened my locker only to see my clothes missing. I swear I've place clothes here before going to basketball practice. I searched my locker for anything to wear only to find a pencil skirt, a bra and a pink crop top with the words 'Sugar Baby'. I also found a note under the female clothes and on it was my name written messily. I opened the note to find Rhylee's messy handwriting that I was familiar with. 'Trick or treat'

Rhylee, you're so dead.
