I guess that’s hard to know because I’ve never been in love before, and I was one of the idiots who would ridicule the guys at the clubhouse when they got snagged. I was renowned for declaring that I was single and wanted to mingle. I constantly ribbed my club brothers about their balls being in a sling, and now look at me. My how the mighty has fallen. It sneaks up on you, that’s all I know.

When I check my phone on my break, there’s a message from Crystal.

Crystal

Saw you on the kiss-cam last night. Uh, WTF? Why didn’t you tell me you finally grew some balls?

I smirk at the text. It was Crystal who encouraged me to go for it and stop being a pussy. Last night I was so caught up in all things Amber, I forgot that someone I know might be watching the game and see the kiss-cam.

Me

I thought I’d put it up on the big screen to show the entire nation instead

Crystal

From where I was sitting, it looked like she was the one who kissed you

Me

Fine. I didn’t want to make her uncomfortable, sue me. I went in for the best friend side cheek, and she turned the tables

Crystal

And I remember you saying this wasn’t a date

Me

It wasn’t until the kiss-cam thing, then it kinda turned into something else

Crystal

Did you two have sex?

Me

I’m not dignifying that with an answer

Crystal

OMG you horndog, you did!

Me

Look, it just happened

Crystal

That’s what me and Ryder said, then I ended up pregnant with Ade

Me

I’m not telling you shit about what happened bc I know about that girls group chat

Crystal

I know about the Grumpy boys chat, too

Me
