I've got better luck in my head,
We're just ghosts inside my bed.
I've got better luck in my head,
Playing poker with the dead.

Ciao Adios; Anne-Marie

"Wuz up?" I answer and Laura screeches, legit screeches into my phone forcing to hold the device and even distance away from my ear.
"The fudge bro?" She took a deep breath,
"Sorry Liby but I'll ask again, why didn't you tell me about your date with Harrison?"
"I-" She cut me off,

"Wait, I need to see your face for this conversation to take place."

"So your coming over?" I say as i crouch down behind an old army tank, ha Wilson can try and get me now, it's been three months and he still hasn't killed me, I'm too good.

"No this needs to happen now, so switch to video chat."

"Why don't you?"

"I just finished dance practice and I'm rolling on mobile data, you on the other hand are probably sitting in front of your Xbox in your room, playing Call Of Duty with a stack of poptarts next to you oh and did i forget to mention, you have unlimited WiFi."

I gape at her accuracy and switched to video setting my phone up close to my Xbox and Laura's face appears,
"So what's with the whole Harrison thing?"
"So, i was scrolling TikTok like i do and i found this video of y'all with romantic music and your all smiley while he's talking its actually cute." I gape at her not forgetting to duck and cover, not today Wilson.

"And now there are cameras everywhere, jeez i feel like a Kardashian or Luke Hemmings." She took a deep breath.

"Honestly Lib i find it way too suspicious."

I jump into an army tanker and then speak.

"What do you mean?"

"Well there are always cameras around when y'all are together whenever shit goes down between you two or there's a spectator of some sort and it's always posted."

I pause the game,

"Maybe because people are nosey."

I pickup a poptart.

"No dear it doesn't work like that, the way i see it Ryder is playing you and this might be the evidence he's meant to show." I furrow my eyebrows, chewing into the chocolate,
"You think?"
"Absolutely but i think that asking him would raise suspicion." I nod and un pause,
"Honestly i don't really give a fuck, he isn't even a close friend, he's just...him."

Handsome√
Cocky√
Funny√

"You have some interest, why not play along?" She asked,
"Nah i think I'll just watch him try, I'll never ever fall for him." Who would fall for him, that is the true question.

"Be careful, he's a master."

"I would never, i have a heart of stone besides if i can escape kissing him then i can escape liking him." I said proudly spotting Wilson and aiming, after this it's 27-1

"What do you mean kiss him?"
"Last week Thursday he tried to kiss me." I took a deep breath smiling devlishly as i shot him, Ha  another one.
"Elaborate."
"He was leaning in and all but i pushed him away."
"Well i hope you keep pushing because i hate to admit it but Harrison is a fucking greek god." I nod,
"I know."
"Anyway I'm taking the subway, bye." She disconnected and i continued my game.

"So Coach Fitz and Dinkelburg think their Soccer and Volleyball players are faster than us." Everyone protested, whilst i sat back,
"That's what i thought too, so we're going to have a "friendly" match against their finest."  I tune him out eating marshmallows,
"You do realize coach will punish you if you eat those." Austin whispers next to me and i nod,
"I'm counting on it."
"What kind of-."
"Summers get off your lazy butt." I look at coach standing up,
"You'll be running...are those marshmallows?" I nod walking towards him,
"Want one?" Coach's fifty yearold features brightened,
"Sure." I hand him the packet and he gestures for me to sit,
"Your running against the other teams." I nod blowing raspberry,
"Same old same old."
"Your getting too cocky." I shrug,
"Long legs coach, i have long legs."

The other teams joined us and everyone sat i stared at the sky as the races went on, the sky is a funny place.

It's blue a beautiful shade that was currently represented on my nails.

Imagine if the entire world was blue?
Every curve and crevice every corner and edge although that would change my feelings about it, I'd find an option B in colours.

Green definitely green.

"Hey." I jump slightly as Harrison sits at my feet,
"Hi."
"Why are you here?"
"Because i can run dingbat." He nodded,
"Well i have a question."
"Make it quick."
"What's your lucky charm?" I hold up my wrist,

"This bracelet."

"What's so special about it?"
"Well my brother chose it for me." He chooses most of my shit but hey Harrison doesn't need to know that.
"Guess what my lucky charm  is?"
"what?"
"i usually have an ugly girl give me a kiss on the cheek." I smiled wide,
"Go find one then."
"That's why I'm here, your the most unattractive girl here." i gape at him,
"I'm not an ugly girl."
"No your just really unattractive."
"Your not as handsome as you think you are Harrison."

Ha your lying.
He's hot.

"It doesn't matter my race is up so kiss me." I raise an eyebrow at him,
"Why me?"
"Your ugly that's why."
"No kiss someone else."

"Ryder get yourself down here!" Coach Fitz yelled and Harrison flinched,
"Sir i have to get Ugly to kiss my cheek." Coach Fitz let out a groan,
"Can you just kiss him."
"He could have diseases." I blurt and all the girls shoot to me,
"Harri kiss me instead." I nearly vomitted  at her tone.

"Nope Ugly must." I roll my eyes,
"What do you want?"
"A kiss." I let out a breath and peck his cheek and immediately contract,
"You did it wrong, hair loose and glasses on." I huff and he taps his cheek, i sigh and move towards him my lips meeting his lips instead of his cheek.

I gape and slouch back as he gets to the starting line.

God i just kissed Harrison Ryder.

Someone call the press.
