ever since sophia had pulled that stunt at the lame ass party, theo hadn’t been able to get a moment to explain to marisol what had actually happened. it was clear to him that she didn’t want to talk to him at all. she hadn’t returned any of his calls or texts and since he had class and practice, he hadn’t been able to catch her between classes. the basketball team didn’t have a game this week and coach had let them out of practice early. showering and changing as fast as he could, theo jogged over to where the cheerleaders practiced, hoping he’d get there in time to catch marisol before she left. taking a seat on the wooden picnic bench just outside the gymnasium, theo waited for the cheerleaders to flood out so he can pull mari to the side and finally explain his side.
