"I had an out of this world idea," Mel jumped on her board.
"Which was?" Ryan looked at her.
"You be my date to homecoming!" Mel smiled.
"I don't know," Ryan hesitated.
"Come on, you yourself even said you wished you could go to a high school dance. And now you can," Mel assured the frizzy haired girl. "Plus, it's not like you having anything else to do,"
"I could rewatch The Hate U Give," Ryan stated.

"I don't know if we're even together anymore," Mel looked down at the water.
"I mean yeah you screamed at him for not being there when you need him. And yeah he almost kissed your post rehab friend. And he flirts with Layla openly not even noticing. Along with him treating football as his first pro-" Ryan went on. "What did you see in him?" She asked puzzled.

Spencer looked at her, but couldn't help but to feel guilty especially after what happened last night. "Now, I know I've been riding y'all hard this past week. I'm proud of you all stepping up. Malibu's been talking a lot of smack. But if you play like this, they ain't gonna know what hit them." The players agreed with their coach. "Y'all get out of here. Have fun at the dance tomorrow night. Oh, wait, one more thing. Keep it classy. No drinking. No staying up all night. I need everyone firing on all cylinders. We got a big game this weekend," He listed the restrictions. "Y'all heard?"
