GREYSON My teammate nods to the guy sitting at a table full of girls. “Jack, Greyson. Jack is the quarterback on the football team.” I quirk my lips. The football team lost spectacularly this year, no thanks to Jack here. It’s a good thing the hockey team is picking up the slack and bringing some attention back to this school. That’s where I shine. In the spotlight. Well, correction: that’s where I used to shine. My gaze goes to the girl beside Jack, who seems like she’s about to be violently sick. She looks familiar in the way most girls do. Like I might’ve had a chance encounter with her at some point in my life but nothing worthy of me remembering. Maybe we ran into each other here, at Haven. After a game. I smirk at her, and she flinches. Not the usual reaction. Interesting.
