Chapter Fourteen
Bright yellow sparks showered the floor, almost as if they were celebrating the two twisted pieces of metal Iâd managed to weld together after two hours of cramp-inducing effort. Turning off the torch and stepping back, I hummed with satisfaction. I wished everything in my life could come together as smoothly as my art projects.
Art had a way of just happening. Sure, sometimes it was in ways I didnât expect, but I could always count on reaching an ending that made me feel incredibly accomplished. Life, on the other hand...not so reliable. And love?
Judging by what had happened in the hallway earlier with Mason and Polly today, I could forget about that ever going my way.
Just thinking about Mason made my stomach clench. If I was feeling the aftereffects of the love note fail, there was no doubt that he was feeling it even worse. Poor guy had to be devastated. But there was always tomorrow. Always a new day. He just needed a pep talk before we moved onto step three of the plan.
The plan. We couldnât deviate from the plan. The plan brought me peace, even when I felt like I was floundering in my final year of high school. The plan would get me my A+ in Research Methods, just like it would produce a perfect sculpture that Rock Valley High would adore for all of time.
Deviating from the plan would bring failing grades. And disappointment to my parents. And forbidden thoughts of Mason, with his sculpted lips, and mesmerizing blue eyes, and the way he sometimes smelled like dark chocolate...

It was a rare evening that I managed to get a few spare minutes to work on the senior class present, but this was one of them. And after the events of today, I needed the stress relief that came in the form of scorching flames and melted metal.
I was ready to blow the joint, but when I walked by the open doors of the gymnasium the sound of a bouncing basketball caught my ears. Most of the athletic practices had already finished up for the night and sent their teams home to get some quality rest for the big game. Rock Valley High was facing off against our rival, Silver Valley, next Friday.
We couldnât lose â not on our own turf. It would be embarrassing for all of the Rock Valley Bandits. Everyone in a fifty-mile radius of our town was already on edge.
I peered into the dimmed lighting of the gym to see whoâd stayed behind. The court ran perpendicular to the doors, the bleachers stacked away for the night. My stomach did a sudden dip when I realized who it was.
Mason was dribbling a ball on the court and grumbling quietly to himself. He wore a pair
