Hail Mary

Benny Big Bend is my home. I love it here. I love everything about it. It's my senior year, and I'm determined to have the best one yet. Of course, that's when life gets confusing. I think I may have a little bit of a crush on my nemesis. Something I never saw coming. I just hope I can find a way to make him give me a chance because being together would make not only this year great but this life of ours—absolutely epic. Rowan Benjamin McBride is the bane of my existence. He simply won't quit—he never does. He's too happy. Too confident. Too unafraid. I can't let him get to me. He thinks we could be epic together, that us in a relationship would be some saving grace—a Hail Mary—a way to make this year and our lives the best they can be. But I'm not destined for happiness. I have to make him understand. It's never going to happen.
