Shawn's POV

I felt a stinging sensation in my left shoulder. I hit the ground. Hard.

"What the hell Mendes?" yelled my football coach. I groaned and got up.

"Puth didn't cover me coach. It isn't my fault your running back can't block." I smirked at Charlie. "Apparently all you can do is run. Ya know there is more to football."

"Hey!" Charlie said defensively.

"Just everybody hit the showers," the coach groaned in frustration. I exited the field happily. I was dedicated to football but these 6am practices really took a toll on my body. I'm not sure how coach expected me to perform to my full ability tonight.

Once I arrived to the locker room I sat down on the bench to empty my duffle bag. I felt a soft hand on my bare shoulder.

"I don't appreciate you calling me out like that," Charlie said playfully. I couldn't help but blush at his tone of voice.

"I'm just trying to make the team better," I mumbled.

"I'm going to hit the showers. These practices have my ass muscles tight." He said getting up from the bench.

Yeah I've noticed, I thought to myself. Once we reached the showers and discarded our clothing I found it extremely difficult to focus. This was always the worst part about practice. I would always just stand in my corner of the shower and keep to myself. I never wanted any of my teammates to know how I felt. They would torment to me to no end.

"Hey man do you have any shampoo?" Charlie approached me. "Uh yeah here." I awkwardly handed him the soap trying my best to not look at his face or his defined abdomen.

"Do you think you could help me in Mr. Hussey's class? I'm struggling big time. My dad said if I don't get my grades up I can kiss my Berklee scholarship goodbye," Charlie said.

"Why don't you ask your girlfriend?" I said a little more harshly than i meant to.

"You know she's not near as smart as you." Charlie grinned at me. I looked at his face for the first time during our whole conversation and couldn't ignore the fact that his hazel eyes

were flashing from my eyes to my abdomen. Or was i imagining things?

"Yeah, I'll try to help you. Mr. Hussey usually shows up to school early. We can go to his classroom and ask for extra credit."

Charlie's POV

As Shawn and I walked to the english classroom I felt my phone vibrate. It was from my girlfriend, Bella. She asked me if I wanted to hang out tonight after my game and I couldn't help but mentally groan. I'd honestly rather hang out with Shawn than her.

Once we arrived to the classroom door I heard a familiar laugh.

"Is that Camila?" I ask Shawn. "Yeah I think so," he replied with furrowed eyebrows. Shawn gently taps the door as we make our way inside the

classroom. I see a shocked Camila sitting on Mr. Hussey's desk. Mr. Hussey coughs loudly and jumps up from his chair. "Hello boys," he says, "What can I do for you? Camila was just leaving."

Camila hops off the desk and makes a weird face at Mr. Hussey. She turns to us and smiles and waves goodbye.

Camila's POV

I've never hated Shawn more than just now and that includes the time he tackled me when we were seven and broke my arm. Matthew and I hardly ever get any alone time because of our circumstances.

Matthew is unlike anybody I have ever dated before. He's so kind, smart, and mature. And he also gave great advice. We both know what we're doing is wrong but we both love each other. At least I think he loves me.

I was broken out of my thoughts by Normani. "Hey girl, are you coming to the game tonight?"

"Yeah of course," i said. "Cool well me, Ally, Charlie, and Shawn are gonna hang out afterwards if you wanna join. Charlie will probably bring his bitchy girlfriend though." she rolled her eyes at the last part.

I laugh and said "I don't think I'll be able to. I have to watch my sister tomorrow morning." I lied but hanging out with Matthew sounded a hell of a lot better than hanging out with them. They never really want me to join. I'm just a pity invite because I've known Shawn since we were in diapers.

I was really looking forward to tonight anyway. Matthew said he would pick me up from the game and take me to his place to stay the night.

"Well let me know if you change your mind," she turned away on her heels.

Lauren's POV

"Dinah it's cold as fuck. How are you enjoying this?" I scoffed at the tall blonde. She only rolls her eyes in return, "Why'd you wanna come if you're just gonna complain the whole time?"

I fell silent at her question and continued mindlessly watching the game. When halftime came around i looked down at the cheerleaders and spotted the short latina girl. Our eyes made contacted and she nodded at me,signaling me to meet up at our designated spot.

I made the hike to the teachers' parking lot to find Ally already waiting for me. "What took so long?" she basically growled. "Woah somebody's eager," I smile at her but she only frowns.

I hand her the ziploc bag with the pills in it and she hands me the money. "I only use these to stay awake to study." she explains. I only nod my head. i've heard that line so many times.

I honestly felt bad for the girl. She was texting me asking me for refills way more often than most of my clients but she somehow always had the money. As I turn around to head back to the game I notice Bella Thorne taking pictures of two people in a car. I can't make

out who it is in the car but I can only assume they parked way out here for privacy.

I storm over to Bella and say "Hey i don't think you need to be invading people's privacy like this," I motion over to the vehicle.

The girl is now straddling the man so all i can see is dark wavy hair. Bella looks me over and says "I don't think you should be selling the preacher's daughter Adderall but you don't see me judging," and with that she walks away.
