A Game Played Well

Chapter 1: Just Friends

I walked out of the class room and into the hallway towards my locker. I open it and find a note sticking out. Its from Jason. I open it and it reads- Dear Oliviana, I know you said this morning that you couldnt find your house keys so just get off the buss with me. We will have some end of the year fun :) Love Jason.

I thought about it and knew i couldnt walk home or anything so i was planning on taking his bus.

I got onto the bus and saw a hand motioning me to come to the back and sit down. It was Jasons hand. I sat down and he was sitting with another kid. "Hello Oliviana! This is my best friend Jackson he is really nice you should like him." But the only problem was that i did like him. I liked him A LOT. He was really handsome but i hadnt even gotten to know him so i let it aside and talked with Jason for a bit. I asked him about his summer plans and he said he was going on Anitnegra, the most beautiful cruise ship i have ever seen with my own eyes. It takes you from Boston, Ma to Paris, France! It is super elegant.

The bus pulled over and we all got off yelling and chanting "Summer 2013!" Everyone already planned ahead and were in their bathing suit and a friend of mine who lived in Jasons neighborhood lent me a bathing suit. Once i put it on everyone was stunned.

I walked out and question the puzzled expressions they shared. "Oh my gosh Oliviana! I never knew what was underneath! You are so skinny i thought you were fat and chubby!" All i saw were a bunch of exchanged head nods and a couple people saying i know right!

I jump in and Jackson cannonballs into the deep end. His hair is all wet and spikey and i cant help myself but to go close and stair at him. All i can think is Stop Oliviana, Jason is your friend and even thought you like him a little we are just friends! you cant cheat with this stranger! But its to late.

The life guard called a 10 minute break and we ran out of chairs so i sat with Jason and Jackson came and joined us. "I cant help but notice your beautiful eyes" Jackson says. "Thanks a lot Jackson" i reply with a smile.

I can tell Jason is getting a bit

irritated by the flirtatious vibe that is going on between me and Jackson.
