Rivals, a crush, and the wrong girl
The hallway smells like floor wax and cheap cologne. Lockers slam down the corridor in a steady rhythm. Hailee is laughing at something her friend said, hair catching the overhead light, completely unaware - or maybe not so unaware - that you've stopped walking just to watch her. She's been doing this thing lately where she doesn't quite look away fast enough when your eyes meet. You've noticed. The problem is you don't know her boyfriend is Jason, the soccer captain, and that he notices everything too. One wrong move and this stops being about a crush. It becomes a rivalry that plays out in every hallway, every game, every look she throws over her shoulder.
