Make Your Mark

Chapter 2

I wake up to my alarm going off and I squint as I look at the time: 8:00.  I grumble under my breath and get up. I see my best friend, Lacy, waking up as well. I smile as I remember that today is her freshman homecoming. I'm excited because I've never helped her get ready for a dance. This is going to be fun, I hope.

I plug in the straightener and turn it on. I'm going to straighten her hair before her football game. I'm going with her because I've come to like football, and also I have a plan for the quarterback...

***FLASHBACK***

Lacy and I are sitting on her bed, gossiping about people at her school. "Yeah, well I heard that this boy John has been to jail," she tells me in a hushed whisper. I chuckle and ask her about the boys she likes. "Well, there is this one boy..." I perk right up and get in her face.

"Who is it, what's his name? How tall is he? Is he cute?" I immediately bombard her with a million questions. She laughs and ignores me.

"Well, his name is Brian. He's taller than me, and he's the quarterback for our football team." She starts telling me about this boy, and I get out my phone to follow him on Instagram. I ask her for his username and I look him up. This guy is decent looking, but he's nothing special. I decide I'm going to do my best friend a favor and try to set her up with him, so I send him a direct message. I type, 'hey.' I get an immediate response: 'gtfoh' I roll my eyes and crack my knuckles.

Time to educate a dickhead...

I muster up as much control as I can before typing out my next message. 'Excuse me. I wasn't trying to hop on your dick?' I send the message and put my phone on the bed. We continue with the banter for a little while before I just get fed up and block him.

I don't have time for this bullshit!
