Chapter 15: Surprise, Surprise

Sebastian's POV

"I feel like a celebrity." Benjamin said as we made our way toward the auditorium.

"We ARE celebrities." Charles said smacking him upside the head. "This rally is for us."

I didn't really care for the big rallies they always threw for homecoming games but the coach didn't really give us a choice in the matter.

"Who are you taking to the dance?" Jacob nudged me.

Ah the great homecoming dance. Exactly one week after the game tickets would go on sale. Chaos would ensue. The school would not shut-up.

I knew who I wanted to take to the dance, however I was still a little peeved about a certain game of paintball. My conscious would not settle until I had my revenge.

"Oh I don't know yet." I answered airily as we reached the auditorium doors.

"Introducing our varsity football team!"  Principal Shaw announced.

The whole team was eating it up waving and blowing kisses to the crowd. Josh waved to Krystal who was holding up a sign with his name on it. I was surprised to see Cheyenne next to her and even more surprised to see her wearing a shirt with the words 'Sebastian is the best!' printed on it. When I looked at her she turned around and on the back were the words 'forgive me?' I grinned.

Off in the high corners of the bleachers sat Kimora and Reese. I was going to take a wild guess and say her and Cheyenne hadn't solved their issue. I also spotted Alexis shooting hate glares in their general direction.

"Quiet down!" Ms. Melamine barked.

"Thank you." Principal Shaw smiled at her. "Now we have a spectacular performance by the cheer squad."

I sat down in the assigned chair for me set on the stage and watched half amused as the cheerleaders ran out doing flips and shit. Maybe I could just close my eyes for a quick nap...

The rally passed by pretty quickly after that, filled with games and news about homecoming. The bell rang signaling lunch and I was more than happy for it to be finally over.

"I'll catch up to you guys later." I said waving to my team and then made my way through the crowded halls before they could respond. Cheyenne was leaning against my locker, just as I suspected.

"I made cookies." She smiles holding out the container.

"Chocolate chip?"

"What else?"

"Oh you've got me." I took the bin from her hands and opened it. The scent of freshly baked cookies wafted it's way up to my nose.

"So..." She trailed off.

"So what?"

"Am I forgiven?"

"I'll think about it." I smirked taking a bite of delicious cookie. "We may have some major trust issues."

"I promise to never do it again!" She exclaimed.

"Your lucky I like you."

"Mhmm very lucky."

I placed the closed container in my locker before shutting it and turning to her with and evil grin.

"What?" She gave me a wary look. "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Without warning I swooped her up in my arms.

"Sebastian what the hell!" She yelled as I took off running down the halls.
