The Art of Falling for You

<p>I need to know why she hates me. </p><p><br></p><p>Bay Bishop aka The New Girl is my new neighbor. In her glasses and stage crew black clothes she has a knack for fading into the background. </p><p><br></p><p>She's probably the only one who rolls her eyes when I walk past instead of cheering on my last touchdown play. But before I can shove her into the recesses of my mind filed under Not my problem she lands herself smack dab in the middle of my dreams. </p><p><br></p><p>I catch her singing with a voice unlike any I've heard before that taps into feelings I shouldn't have for the girl who avoids me at all costs. </p><p><br></p><p>With three months until graduation the final play is on. Only it's not for more points. It's for Bay. </p><p><br></p><p>Unlike my success on the field this win is anything but assured. But I can't stop myself from taking the risk. </p><p><br></p><p>There's no flashing scoreboard. </p><p>There's no cheering crowd. </p><p>There's only her and me. </p><p><br></p><p>The countdown clock is ticking. The only thing scarier about finding my first love will be losing her.</p><p><br></p><p><br></p>
