Girl's Got Game

Part 19

Okay Chase might be my best friend, but I'm not so sure about this "liking me" thing. I mean, we've known each other for ten or more years. Why would he want to throw that down the drain?

I don't even know how I feel about him. Yeah, he's alright. Not my type, though. He's a bit on the preppy side, while I embrace the rebel status. Even if I did like him, I wouldn't date him. Ten years is a long time to be friends and I don't want to ruin our friendship.

Let's just say he's too much of a good boy to keep it simple.

Surprisingly, my mind hasn't cleared since the conversation I had with Tommy. I never knew he could be that sweet. He always was the hot jerk on the block. Wait, did I say hot? I think I'm losing it.

Well, he's kind of beautiful in a way. No, Toby. Stop right there.

Why is my life so confusing? I'm only fifteen. Gosh.

----------------------------------------------

I was slightly off at practice today. My head still wasn't fully clear from that conversation, and to make matters worse, Tommy's team practiced a field over. I tried to act normal when we made eye contact, but I couldn't control the blush that was evident on my cheeks. Why am I acting this way?

Even on my off day, I still had two TDs and a pick six. That's good for having butterflies in my stomach. Oh gosh, did I just say butterflies in my stomach?

I'm turning into a flower.

I texted Darrell last night about Chase. He's pretty good with the ladies, so his advice could maybe be beneficial.

T: so I have a problem here
D: what's going girl? miss me already?
T: I saw you yesterday moron. and no I don't miss you
D: your words cut me deep tobester
T: that was the plan. but I seriously have a problem
D: come sit at my feet and I will impart my great wisdom upon thee. speak, young lass
T: no need to go Shakespeare. so it's about Chase. you know him right?
D: preppy quarterback who frequently calls you Blondie? met him a few times.
T: well I guess he likes me?
D: shocker. never saw that coming
T: shut it with the sarcasm. I'll come and punch you
D: how? through the phone?
T: I'll find a way. but any advice?
D: do you like him back?
T: dude, you really think I have "crushes?"
D: well other girls do. so maybe you'll actually develop emotions someday and join them
T: I have emotions
D: yeah. anger, hyperactivity, obnoxious, and smart aleck. those are your emotions
T: get a life
D: impossible. but do you want my exact opinion?
T: no. I texted you asking you to lie to me
D: true. well, I don't think he's your type
T: that's what I was thinking
D: then why'd you ask me?
T: I needed confirmation
D: yeah. you're better off as friends. he's too pretty boyish
T: ok thanks for the advice. see ya at school tomorrow. and tell your sister I might need more of that pink hair dye
D: will do, chica. and good luck with lover boy
T: thnks

Is it funny how I'm even more confused than before?

Hey guys!
I know I said I'd update during the weekend, but things came up and I wasn't able to write until now.

Again, your feedback is vital. Comment who you think Toby should pick. Chase or Tommy?

And comment what sport you play too because I like getting comments.

I'll update again soon, amigos.
