The Shane Game
Chapter 47
Savannah went an entire week
ignoring Shane, despite his attempts to acknowledge her. Now that
his secret was out, he didn’t have to pretend like he hated
her. But she still ignored him. No notes in English, no secretive
looks in math, no smiles in science- nothing.
He saw her and Ava together and
Shane wondered if Ava had told her. He assumed not, because if
his best friend had done that, he would not be acting all buddy
buddy with them.
There was another game that
Friday night, and Paige was throwing a party for Ava’s
birthday which was also that day. Shane knew that Savannah was
invited to this party. He had all week to tell Savannah what
happened, and he hadn’t. And he knew that Savannah
wouldn’t wait around forever. This was his last chance.
They’d won their fifth
straight game in a row, but not by much. If Shane hadn’t
tackled the quarterback, the other team would’ve scored and
won. Everyone congratulated Shane and told him they’d go
hard tonight.
Blake gave him a ride to the
party and told him he’d try to get him with Savannah
tonight. Shane wondered why Blake was going to Ava’s
birthday party, considering what he did to her last year, but he
knows Blake doesn’t miss a good party.
Shane immediately spotted
Savannah when he walked in. She was wearing a sparkly gold baby
tee and a black, high-waisted skirt. Gold bracelets lined her
thin wrist, and Shane could only imagine what she was hiding
under there.
Blake patted Shane’s back
and c..cked his head towards Savannah. “If you get it,
I’ll give you ten dollars,” he joked and pushed him
toward her.
Savannah was pouring herself
another shot when Shane came out of nowhere. She spilled it on
herself, “Oh my God.”
“I’m so
sorry,” Shane said. Blake laughed from the side but Shane
ignored him. “I’ll get you another.”
“It’s fine,”
she spat.
“You look really
pretty,” he tried.
“Thanks,” she said,
barely making eye contact. She knew if she did she might cry,
thinking about what he did with Ava.
“Paige is having people
make toasts to Ava later. Are you gonna make one?” he tried
to make conversation.
“She’s my best
friend, of course,” Savannah said, as if it were
obvious.
“Palmer, there’s
another bottle in that back room. Why don’t you treat
Savannah to it since you wasted her other one,” Blake said,
pointing to the laundry room.
Shane realized what Blake was
doing and took Savannah there so they could be alone. Blake shut
the door behind them and stood in front of it so Savannah
couldn’t get out.
“What’s going on,
there’s no bottle in here?” Savannah said. “Let
me out!”
“Savannah I need to tell
you something,” he said.
“You like me, I get it
Shane! You’ve told me!”
“I hooked up with
Ava!” he admitted.
Note: how many times can Shane mess
up like honestly
Teaser: "You know?" he asked. "Well duh," she
laughed. "I came up with this
plan."
