*Allie's POV*
"Heyyy" Colleen called
behind me.
I turned to see Katie and Colleen, slowing my pace to let them
catch up to me.
"You ready for English?"
"Nice joke" Katie mumbled.
"Hate this class." Collen chimed in.
It was a cool late November day. My friends were still unaware
about the events that had occured the previous summer.
As we sat in Mr. Tesso's class, we continued to chat.
"Are you ready for practice today" I questioned
Kate.
"When am I ever ready? We're going to get our as/ses
kicked again!" she grumbled.
"I hate swimming" I agreed.
"Just wait to February. Four more months of hel/l!"
"Late again Luke" Mr. Tesso drew the room's
attention to the back of the room.
Luke, strolled in casually and took the seat behind me.
"Hey babe" he flirted.
"Oh hey." I smiled.
Luke was simply gorgeous. He had slick brown hair and bright
green eyes. Figuring out that he liked me in August was one of
the best things in my life. He saved me from the depression
caused 2 months previous of the unspoken night. Mr. Tesso began
teaching the remainder of The Great Gatsby.
***
The day drew on as lunch approached. We all sat in our usual
seats. Kate with her boyfriend Cole. Colleen with her boyfriend
Alex and Kelsey forever alone. I sat practically on Luke's
lap as he gave me a peck on the cheak. I slid my backside down so
I was sitting independently on the bench next to him.
After we all ate, we had an hour of roam time. During this time,
we had to check in with our homeroom teachers and then it was
pure freedom. I always dreaded homeroom because it required me to
be in the prescence of Luke's ex girlfrined, Taylor. I tried
to make my time spent in homeroom as brief as possible, and
always avoided eye contact.
After the awkward minutes had passed, I met Luke in the locker
room for our usual "study session". We read over our
notes for the Great Gatsby and he tried to explain Trig to me.
Before I knew it, it had turned from studying to something else.
Luke had me against the locker as our lips and tounges
interconnected. Our make out session lasted around 20 rough
minutes. He pinned me to the lockers as his front rubbed on
mine.
When we had finnished our time, we were both a bit warn out.
"Quite a warm up for practice later." I winked as I
exited the locker
room.

*Allie's POV*
"Alright ladies," Coach
Tracy echoed, "It is the beginning of our season and we are
not where we need to be."
I made eye contact with Kate. We both rolled our eyes. We were
never "where we needed to be". Tracy drew on about how
we needed to be practicing harder, but all I could think about
was what had gone down in the locker room hours before.
***
After we had finnished our gruelling dryland which consisted of
25 minutes of cardio, 10 minutes of stregnth, and 5 minutes of
abs, we were off to the pool. We warmed up with a 10 minute
straight swim which killed. I was so tired and out of shape.
After the 10 minutes were finally over, we began our first set: 5
300 IMs. I was dying. After the first 300, Tracy had asked me to
clib out of the pool. I was relieved even though Tracy terrified
me.
"Allie, I don't know if you know this, but this team is
really counting on you this year. I need to see you trying harder
in practice. You could be great. You really could. You just need
to try."
I sighed, "Ok I'll try a little harder."
"Alright, get back into the water."
***
Finally, it was over. I was so tired as I climbed into my ford
escape and sped home. I was greeted by my parents as I walked
through the door. They asked me how my day was and about
practice. I waddled upstairs, and checked my phone. I had a 3
frantic messages
from Kelsey.:
"CALL ME ASAP xx"
From Colleen:
"WTF!? Allie, I'm so sorry. Call me. I'm here for
you
and another one from Luke:
"Babe, we need to talk."
My face dropped. It had already been a crap night. I didn't
know what to do. I decided to call Kelsey, after all we had been
friends the longest.
She picked up after one ring.
"A-Allie" she stuttered.
"What what's wrong?" I was so confused.
"It's
Luke"
