Chapter 3

(Serena's P.O.V)
When I finally got to my dorm room after class there was a piece of paper sticking from under my door. Picking it up, I saw a simple note written in Calem's handwriting along with two tickets.

"Enjoy the game tomorrow night. Hope to see you after we win!
                                               -Calem"

I smiled as I stepped into my dorm room and close the door. "And just what are you smiling about?" A voice questioned I looked up to see my roommate May sitting at her desk with a knowing look on her face. "Calem left me tickets for tomorrow night's game. Wanna go with me?" I asked "So I can sit with you while you make googley eyes at the quarterback and talk about him nonstop? Sure!" She replied clapping her hands together.

I rolled my eyes "I only talk about him because I'm watching that game and he's in it" I replied "Uh huh. Suuure you do. It has nothing to do with that picture on your desk." She put her right hand on her hip. I glanced at my desk and see the picture of me and Calem from senior year of high school sitting neatly on the corner. "We've been friends since we were kids!" I exclaimed waving my hands in front of my face. "So why do you keep all the notes he writes you in that box under your bed? And grin like crazy when he texts?" She grinned.

I grab a pillow from my bed and toss it at May's head. "Like you aren't crushing on Ash. You talk his ear off every chance you get!" I folded my arms "Why not? I'll never have a shot because he's crushing on you. Besides, Drew asked me to homecoming" May replied. I tossed another pillow at her. "Why didn't you tell me? That's great!" I said "Well, he just..." She trailed off "and Ash doesn't like me like that, by the way." I said "You're nuts. They're both crazy over you. Anyway, Drew just asked me today and..." I interrupted her "Yeah, right. That'll be the day." I laughed "Hey! What's that supposed to mean?" She asked crossing her arms and glaring at me. "No no no!! I meant that they both will never like me like that. I'm happy for you and Drew!" I quickly explained

May rolled her eyes "Who do you think comments on your poetry blog all the time? Who do you think sent you roses on Valentines day?" She smirked "Certainly not either of them" I replied.

I watched May roll her eyes at me again then she turned back to her studies. "I'm done arguing with you. Just wait and see." She said. I ploped down at my desk and flipped open my math book. 'Could she be right?' I asked myself then I chuckled and shook my head. 'May's crazy. I'm not the type either of them would go for. Too plain. Too nerdy.' I said to myself 'That dosen't mean I can't keep wishing though...' I trailed off lost in thought

After studying for the evening, I got ready for bed and layed myself down to go to sleep. Just as I was about to drift off into dreamland my phone buzzed and the screen lit up with a text.

Ash- I started 2night. Hope u like it.

I saw that Ash attached a video and I clicked play. I hear a short, beautiful acoustic melody.

Ash- I call it 'Shy Beauty'. Lyrics in progress. G'nite. Sweet dreams.

I played the tune over and over again, my mind racing. 'Could May be right?' I debate how to respond for a few minuets, but settle for something simple.

Serena- Beautiful as always thx 4 sharing w/ me. G'nite.

I drift off to sleep with that sweet song playing in my head.
