The Game Plan

6

Bzzz.

I looked up from my neatly written math notes. Math was a subject I really liked.

Everything had a place and if you did everything exactly like you should, the answer would always stay the same.

My phone buzzed again and I glanced at my lap where my iPhone was resting in my lap.

New Friend Request

I frowned and opened the Facebook app.

Nick Morgan wants to be your friend.

Ahh what the heck?

"Britt? Brittney?" I looked up from my phone at my teacher.

"Britt, what is the square root of 144?" He asked, his eyebrows joining in an annoyed look.

"12." I smiled sweetly and he smiled before walking back to the board.

"Nice save." Luke grinned, not looking up.

I rolled my eyes at him and he chuckled.

I glanced down at my phone and bit my lip.

"What?" Luke whispered and I showed him the friend request. Before I could say anything he leaned forward and pressed "accept".

"Hey!" I accidentally said louder than I planned.

"Yes?" My teacher asked.

"I am so sorry Mr. Lydon. Luke accidentally drew on me." I smiled angelically.

"Feel free to fill out a pass and wash it off." He said with a smile.

As I walked to the bathroom my phone vibrated twice.

Nick hey superstar?

Me what do you want?

Nick just some friendly chit chat amongst quarterbacks :)

I rolled my eyes and locked my phone.

At lunch, Matt called out my mood.

"What's up?" He asked, sliding his tray next to mine.

"Nick messaged me." I rolled my eyes.

"Cut out the eye rolling." He ordered.

"Did you answer him?" He asked.

"Barely."

"Why?" He asked.

"Well, A. he is pretty much public enemy number one. B. what if NCHSAA finds out?" I said.

"And what if they do?" He paid for his lunch and waited for me to pay for mine.

"Thanks," I smiled at the lunch lady before following him. "and if they did they would call me out for talking to the other team which would somehow translate to flirting which would somehow bite me in the ass." I grumbled.

"Valid argument." He sat down and took a bite of his burger.

"He is pretty cute." He said, looking up and winking at me - causing me to laugh out loud.

"Oh shut up Matthew." I threw a fry at him.

"Don't even think about starting a food fight..." He warned and I wiggled my eyebrows.

"Or what?" I threw another fry.

"Seriously... we can't get in trouble." He laughed, catching the fry in his mouth.

"You're right." I sighed, biting one of my own.

Later that night, I finished my homework and climbed into bed. I grabbed my iPad and turned on the TV in my room to Bravo.
