you and your friend have made a bet on who could pull grover underwood, a cute quiet boy from a few of your classes.

she tried starting with inviting him to sit and eat with her, however, he politely declined the offer.

in the library at lunch, you realized he was sitting there. you might’ve been a bit wrong, but you noticed his eyes following your movements. approaching him, you bit your lip as you asked him what he was reading.

he shut the book almost immediately, but he nudged the book your way. “you can, uh, read it.” he offered, but it wasn’t long till you saw the resentment on his face.

you nodded, taking it home with you. it wasn’t what you expected— it was a romance book, leaving you a bit surprised.

flipping through the pages, you reached the last one with your name and hearts surrounding it.
