Game of Love

Let the Game Begin!

Lander finally reached the cafeteria after a few distractions here and there. Their table was located at the right side of the entrance. The table was only for the three of them.

"What happened?" Henry asked Lander as the latter sat down.

"Love confession."

Groans from the two were heard. They have always experienced this situation. Some random girl goes up to them, confess their love, which they figured out was only for fame. They hated how girls would only think about popularity. In their perspective, every girl is beautiful, they just didn't know how to appreciate their beauty. 

First they thought it was great to have people admiring you but now it's getting annoying. Out of the three, Lander is the one who's always experiencing love confessions from girls. Rather, he's the most popular guy in school. Next is Deion then Henry. But they didn't care of this ranking, they just wanted a simple, normal life. Going to a normal school, have normal friends but now it's just the three of them.

"So, D, I'm interested in your plan earlier," Henry stated, "Please explain."

"It's nothing, really. I just want our last year here be memorable," Deion explained, "You guys don't want our last year to be boring, do you?"

"Aaaaaaahhhh!!!"

Followed by a THUMP!  in the floor. All eyes were on them.

"HEY! Watch where you're going!" a guy shouted.

"How about you watch where you're going? You already saw us walking yet you didn't step aside, jerk!"  the friend of the girl on the floor yelled.

"Well, if you saw me looking at both of you, why didn't YOU move?" the guy snaps back at the girl.

As both students continue bickering, the trio decided to ignore the situation. It wasn't their problem anyway. Lander attention were stuck to the girl who just passed by their table. It was the same blonde girl who almost bumped into him. 

"Hey, Lander!!"

"Yeah?"

He turned his head to his friends.

"What are thinking of or rather looking at?" 

Henry tried  to follow Lander's gaze but spotted no one.

"It's nothing. What plan do you have in mind, D?"

"Okay... How about we do something that will get us in trouble like school pranks?"

"Too childish." Henry whined.

"What do you have in mind?" Deion asked Henry.

"I say we compete for a girl. We-"

"Seriously, Henry?" Lander cut him off.

"We'll toy with a girl's heart? What if the girl finds out about the game? We'll be named as the three cold hearted kings of this school." Lander explained.

"So what, Lander? You're already an ice prince." Deion remarked.

"As I was saying, the winner is the one who the girl chooses. Loser are the other two. How's that?" Henry finished.

"What does the winner get?" Deion asked

"Haven't really thought about it. I'll tell you guys when I figure it out. So, is everybody in?"

Lander realized something.

"Wait."

Both heads turned to him.

"Who's the girl?"

"We'll talk about it tomorrow at my house? Is that good?" Deion suggested

"Fine." Lander gives up.

"Good. So, everybody in? Of course, I am!" Henry said.

"I'm in."

Deion and Henry looked at Lander.

"Fine. I'm in."

"Yeah!" Both cheered as they high-fived with Lander.

"Let the game begin!" Deion exclaimed.
