Jessa

Jessa POV

By the time I walked into school, I could feel it.

Not the whispers exactly — not the words — but the shift. The way conversations dipped when I passed. The way people smiled too brightly, like they were trying to prove they weren’t talking about me even though we all knew they were.

It was almost worse than when they didn’t bother to hide it.

My locker was three rows down from the main hallway, and every step there felt like walking through invisible fog. I couldn’t hear what anyone was saying, but I could feel it pressing in from all sides.

Paid him to date her.

Poor Noah.

Desperate.

Embarrassing.

I didn’t know who started it. I just knew it stuck.

Mariah walked beside me, quiet for once. Not her normal commentary-on-everything self. She kept glancing at me like she was waiting for me to break.

I didn’t.

That surprised both of us.

When we got to my locker, I spun the dial and opened it like it was any other day. My hands weren’t shaking. My stomach wasn’t in knots. I

    NoahBy the time I got home, my head felt like it had been run through a blender.Not because anything terrible had happened.Not because Jessa and I had fought.Not even because the whispers had gotten worse.It was because everything was loud.The school. The looks. The way people suddenly thought they were entitled to opinions about my life. About her.About us.I tossed my keys on the counter and stood there for a second, staring at nothing. My mom was still at work, my dad was probably in the garage at home, and the house felt too quiet in the wrong way.My phone buzzed in my pocket.Jessa.I smiled before I even opened it.You survive the day?I typed back:Barely. You?Three dots appeared.I’m okay. Just… tired of people.Yeah. Same.I stared at the screen for a second, then typed before I could overthink it:Want me to come over?There was a pause. Long enough that I wondered if I’d said something wrong.Then:I’d really like that.Decision made.⸻The drive to her house felt

    JessaMonday morning felt… different.Not in a fireworks, everything-is-magical kind of way. More like the air had shifted just enough that I noticed it when I stepped outside.The sky was gray-blue and cool, fall hanging heavy in the air. I pulled my jacket a little tighter around myself while I waited for Mariah’s car, my stomach doing that annoying mix of fluttery and nervous it had apparently decided was my new personality.Homecoming was over.The game was over.Benny’s was over.But the school?The school was still the school.I knew that.Mariah pulled up, leaning across the seat to shove the door open for me. “Good morning, celebrity.”I snorted as I climbed in. “Do not start.”She grinned. “I’m not starting anything. The school already did.”That familiar knot tightened in my stomach, but I kept my face neutral. “How bad?”“Eh,” she said, pulling out of the driveway. “Not horrible. Not great. You know. People.”People.That said everything.We drove the rest of the way in com

    JessaBenny’s was loud in that warm, messy, happy way that only happens after a big win.The windows were fogged up from too many people and too much laughter. Someone had pushed a bunch of tables together, and half the football team was crammed around them, still in jackets and hoodies, still buzzing with adrenaline.Everyone was talking at once.Jackson was in the middle of it, of course—getting slapped on the back, getting his crown stolen and put on someone else’s head, getting it stolen back. Mariah sat beside him, pretending she was annoyed while absolutely glowing.I watched them for a second and smiled.Then I felt Noah’s hand find mine under the table.Just like that. Natural. Easy.My heart still hadn’t figured out how to act normal around him.“So,” Mariah said, leaning across the table, “I vote we officially declare this the best homecoming game in Ridgeville history.”“Only because we won,” someone said.“Details,” she replied.Everyone laughed.Food came. Fries disappear

    NoahThe final whistle blew and everything exploded.The scoreboard still glowed over the field—Ridgeville 21, Clearwater 14—but the numbers barely registered because my ears were full of shouting, my chest was full of fire, and my legs were shaking in that good, earned way.We’d done it.We beat them.And somehow, against every ounce of pressure and noise and chaos, we’d played better without him.I ripped my helmet off as guys piled into each other, Reyes nearly tackling me in celebration, someone yelling about food, someone else yelling about how Jackson was a damn legend.I laughed, breathless, dizzy.Then I saw him.Daniel.Still in his Clearwater uniform.Standing near the edge of the field, helmet tucked under his arm, face tight with something that wasn’t just anger.For a second, the whole night rewound in my head.The party.The pool.Jessa’s face.The coach’s office.Him getting kicked off our team.And now here he was.On the other side.We’d just beaten his new team.Jack

    JacksonThe third quarter started the way the first half should’ve.Fast.Clean.Focused.Coach’s voice was still ringing in my ears when we took the field, and for once, it actually worked. We moved the ball with purpose. No stupid penalties. No trying to play hero-ball.Just football.On the opening drive, I kept it simple. Short passes. Quick reads. Let the guys do their jobs.Noah was a wall.Every time Daniel tried to get inside his head, Noah just drove him back instead.Good.Let him choke on that.We marched down the field and punched it in.14–17.The stadium exploded.I glanced at the stands again—Jessa was on her feet now, clapping, her face lit up in a way that made something in my chest loosen.Westbrook wasn’t smiling anymore.Daniel definitely wasn’t.⸻They came back aggressive.A couple big plays. A couple of lucky breaks.They tied it.17–17.And suddenly it felt like everything was balanced on a knife’s edge.On the next series, Daniel finally snapped.He cheap-shot
