Everything is set in place for Taylor.
Taylor Perez, kind and beautiful teenage girl is finally entering her last year in high school. With her star quarterback boyfriend, her best friend, and her lovin...
My plan is working. As you walk down the hallways, you will definitely hear people talk more about Ethan and Olivia than the rest of the competitors. People are focused on them and of course me too. Why? Because I'm rooting for my friends and people can see that I'm go out of my way to do this which is very important to my plan.
With everything going so smoothly, I don't except any backlash as I head to the court where the basket ballers are practicing. I put on my regular smile that I used to have on anytime I come here to watch Ethan play with Olivia. As I remember these things, I taste something bitter in my mouth from the sadness and bitterness brewing in my heart.
Once I'm in, I notice just like the gym, the court didn't have Ethan or Tiffany present. I don't mind because seeing any of them isn't what I want. I see a couple of basket ballers crowded up at a corner talking and so I creep towards there to hear what they're saying wanting to know if I can get anything that'll help my plan.
"I bet my ass Alistair would have the most votes." A guy I don't recognize says making my eyebrow raise up wondering why he thinks so.
"Absolutely not. My man's the best that can lead this team to victory. There's no one better. Alistair is just starting, he has not reached the level Ethan has and everyone knows that," Brandon says defending his best friend.
Another guy chuckles who I'm guessing is from Dawn's school, "Yeah right. Winning isn't just about all the achievements you've had?"
Funny enough all I wanted to do was just listen to their conversation since I didn't really have anything to do at the moment but I couldn't help but ask, "Oh really? I thought that was all winning was about." I say turning everyone's attention to me in shock at where the feminine voice came from.
The guys from my school recognize me and a few from Dawns school do too.
"Ah the girlfriend has come to take sides with her boyfriend." The first guy that spoke says recognition clear in his tone.
"Well of course. I'm his girlfriend; it's my job to do that." I say.
"Most definitely. So as it's my job to vote for my friend." He responds.
"Look, em..." I start waiting for him to fill in the space with his name and he does so, "Terrence." I smile at him in appreciation of his sharpness.
"You seem like a very smart guy. So you'll know very well that when you want to choose things like this, you need to pick the right person with a clear head and not because this person is your friend." I say now realizing just how I can take this to my advantage.
