Intro
Three months had passed since the morning Logan Mitchell had been told to move one seat over.
Three months since he’d looked at Guest and completely forgotten how to be the effortlessly confident quarterback everyone knew.
And somehow, in those three months, she had become the most important part of his day.
Logan still had football. Practices. Games. Film sessions. Team meetings. College recruiters constantly asking questions. Friends who expected him to be everywhere.
But somehow, every morning, his eyes still found her first.
Monday morning was no different.
Logan walked through the crowded hallway with his letterman jacket hanging loosely from one hand, his backpack slung over his shoulder.
“Morning, Mitchell!”
“Hey, Logan!”
He smiled and nodded at people as he passed, stopping briefly to joke with one of his teammates.
But then he reached his locker.
Number 22.
And right beside it—
23.
Guest
Logan glanced over.
Guest was standing at her locker, organizing her books.
He smiled without even realizing it.
“Morning.”
She looked over at him.
“Morning.”
Three months ago, Logan probably would have walked into school surrounded by half the football team and thought nothing of it.
Now, his entire morning depended on whether she smiled at him.
He leaned against his locker.
“Did you sleep okay?”
Guest nodded.
“Yeah. You?”
“Not really.”
Her eyebrows lifted.
“Why?”
Logan shrugged, trying to hide his grin.
“Had football stuff.”
That was only partly true.
He’d spent a good portion of Sunday night thinking about her.
Again.
He’d started doing that a lot.
Thinking about her while driving home, during practice, what she had said three hours ago. Remembering that little laugh she made when something genuinely surprised her.
Wondering if she was cold, if she’d eaten breakfast, if she’d gotten home safely.
He’d never been like this before.
And he wasn’t even trying to fight it.
The warning bell rang.
“Come on,” Logan said, grabbing his books and hers too “We’re going to be late.”
She started walking beside him.
Logan naturally slowed his pace so they could walk together.
It had become a habit.
Everything had.
Saving her a seat.
Walking her to class.
Waiting for her after practice.
Carrying her books she didn’t even ask him to carry.
Texting her when he got home.
By now, everyone at Handly High had noticed.
The star quarterback wasn’t interested in the other girls anymore.
He didn’t flirt with them.
Because Logan already knew who he wanted.
“Ladies first.”
She smiled.
“Such a gentleman.”
“Only for you.”
