She's all that and a bag of chips

Who even throws a debate party dude? Let alone a hot footballer!

Courtney's P.O.V.

"Courtney! For the last time nobody wants to go to the debate party with you! And the people who would even remotely care about politics (cough cough Margarita cough cough) are either sucking face with their boyfriend, or (cough cough Claire cough cough) have a volleyball game!" Kelsi says to me as if she were talking to a 5 year old who just couldn't understand. I'm with Kelsi and Lola at the park right now.
"Okay let's play a game of whatever you guys choose and whoever loses goes with me deal?!"
They look at each other with an evil smirk, and say all to challenging
"DEAL!!" Simultaneously.
They ended up playing truth or dare and whoever chickened out first lost. I guess Lola really didn't want to go, because that's the first time I've ever seen Kelsi lose at truth or dare.
Later that day at my house while getting ready...
"Black dress, or white dress?"
"Courtney, nobody cares, pick whichever you like most."
"Okay black it is I guess... What's wrong dude?"
"It's just, has it ever occurred to you that this is really strange Courtney? I mean, Who even throws a debate party, let alone a hot footballer?!!"
" I know, but my internet and cable are out and the t.v. guy isn't coming until Monday, and I REALLY REALLY want and need to see this debate!"
"Alright whatever.... I just think that Dalty pooh here likes Courtney!!" She sings.
"UGH EW! No he does not, okay? I am not going to be a typical cliché and fall for the quarterback of the football team!"
"Oooh so you like him too!! I said nothing about YOU liking him, and simply said that he likes you, feelings confirmed you guys make the perfect couple!!" She chirps that last part into a fake walkie talkie.
"I do not like him!! Besides, he would never like me! I'm me!! Have you met me I mean ew! Just ew! Like for 1 I sing non-stop every second of the day, like weird, and 2 I once accidentally brushed my teeth with a cleaning brush, gross!! And 3 I never put lotion on my legs, like who wants a girl with dry skin?! I wouldn't if I were a dude!!"
"Yep roger that, she's in pretty deep, there's no talking her out of it at this point." She talks into her imaginary walkie talkie, as if I were not there to hear her.
I get dressed, do my makeup, and straighten my already mostly straight hair. We then get in the car and go.
2 minutes later...
"Hmm, I didn't know Mr.Quarterback lived in my neighborhood"
Ding dong
"Pizzas in the- oh, hey Courtney, and Courtney's friend, pizza in the kitchen on the bar, I gotta go do something"
He says while running away
"Well then" says Kelsi
"Shall we?"
"We shall!" Kelsi says in a really weird British accent. It's only weird because she can't keep her self together long enough without cracking up to say it correctly, but I catch her drift. We head towards the kitchen for the free pizza and drinks. Kelsi taunts me the whole time reenacting how she thinks we wanted to greet each other
"Oh Dalton" I'm gonna kill her!! But she's my friend.. And killing is a sin ugh. Lol. But this really is torture. It gets even worse when she starts to fake make out with him. Ugh ew gross.
"Let's go watch t.v.!"
"K!"
We then leave to be greeted by Dalton once again, and suddenly I'm in a bone crushing bear hug, it's such a good hug, and I distastefuly never want it to end, but I don't know how one shows affection to a boy she does NOT like, or anyone for that matter, so I just give him a good pat on the back. When he pulls away I notice Kelsi smiling like an idiot and doing the whole fake make out sesh she did earlier with herself while Dalton just burns holes into his feet,
"Hey Courtney's friend, I have yet to learn the name of!!"
"Kelsi, my names Kelsi."
She says while he shakes her hand. With very strong handshake game might I mention.....
"Oh, hey sorry I ran off like that I had to pee!"
His face makes since now
"Oh! That's why you had that pained look on your face!" after hearing that leave my mouth, I instantly block out any noise I hear in order to properly slap my self in my face with the words in my head.
We then sit down. Kelsi sits by Josh, Daltons friend, making sure that I have to sit by the the quarterback himself Dalton O'Riley. That little b word!! Jk. Oh who am I kidding he smells fabulous. Who wouldn't want to sit next to him. We had a good 12 inches in between us but I felt myself gravitating closer to him by the second, and I could tell he was gravitating to me as well. I couldn't focus on the debate I so badly wanted to see, all I could focus on was him, as creepy as that sounds...by the time the debate was over, there was no room between us. Kelsi left 10 minutes ago with Josh, she said she had to be home early, then Evelina and Angus started making out in the back of the room. So that left just me and Dalton. Once we both noticed our close proximity, we both looked into each other's eyes with an intensity unknown to man, and then flew to opposite ends of the couch with an almost super natural speed and force, and we started to both cough like we had tuberculosis. With no words between us, he walked me to my car. Which wouldn't start when I turned the key in the ignition. Like the cliché rom-com with out the rom my life is, he whipped off his shirt, leaving him an a white egg-beater, and starts to work on the engine. He finally gives up.
"My uncle can come work on it in the morning, until then, I can drive you to your house. "
"Okay deal!"
"Alright!!" He says a bit too excitedly.
And with that we hop into his Truck, which is surprisingly playing Willies road house on the radio. Dalton and I start rocking out to all the country oldies, until we arrive to my house. He then opens his door, locks mine, then runs really really fast to my side of the door, and then unlocks my door and swings it open to reveal a panting Dalton,
"Well I know I have good looks, but I didn't know I could fluster one guy that much." I say mimicking what he said when we first met
He laughs, and not one of those fake laughs, but a real, hearty, manly man laugh, that came from his gut, and I joined in with him.
"Mind it I help you down?"
"Nah I ca-" I get cut off by him getting me out of the truck, and then walks about 50 yards to my front door before putting me down ever so softly he looks into my eyes once again as if trying to figure me out, our lips are only inches apart, and I make the move to widen that gap.
"You can put me down now."
"Yeah, uh here's your stop..."
He says while cutely scratching the back of his neck, egh bleh, why did I just say that? I mean sure I'll admit he's extremely attractive, but I do NOT like him. And with that I open the door, and like a cockroach when the kitchen light comes on, he scurried away into the night.
What hot football dude even throws a debate party now that I think about it? Hmm maybe he just likes politics ALOT just like me. Maybe Kelsi was right maybe we would make a perfect couple... Maybe just maybe...
NAHHH...
