Losing the Field (The Field Party, #4)

by Abbi Glines

Not because of the pain from each step but because I dreaded facing them. They’d all know. They’d all look at me differently. The guy I had been was no longer, and that made for something to gawk at. To whisper about.

Omg wtf happened to this dude. Hes completely and utterly broken

“You decided on a college yet?” Asa asked. Once again he was there beside me. He’d barely left my side all day. It was annoying.

Dam Asa just wants a boo-thang

expected to get a football scholarship was Nash.

Oh snap she doesn't know.

Nash’s eyes were cold—or were they empty?—as he looked straight ahead. He wasn’t the smiling guy I remembered. Actually, I had never seen him so . . . angry.

Ooop hes dead inside

The face I’d always thought was pretty was now beautiful.

Oooooooooo. He thought she was ALYWAYS pretty. But wait why he laugh at that one commemt?

Okay, so I felt like a bitch. But again, whose fault was that? Ugly words. Cruel words. Laughter at my expense. They hadn’t lost any sleep over it.

“I love you. I won’t let you give up. I’m your momma. I will never ever give up on you. You’ve got a big future, Nash Lee. A huge one. This is just a stumbling block. It’ll make you tough, stronger, and more determined.”

If I didn’t love him, I’d throw his ass out of this moving vehicle.

Ahhh the conundrum i face all the time with my own cousins

“So you’re still nice to him. You just went all bitch on me?” Nash asked. I ignored that.

I shouldn't be laughing but that was freakin funny

Not the fact Tallulah had gone off with a man ten years older than her. Hell, was I the only one who saw the man checking out her legs? It was pretty obvious.

Woah woah woah waiiiiiiiit

“She’s the same person. She was always all those things. She just looks different now. You’re all fucking shallow.”

And i ooop

thing. I just liked her smile. Her eyes were so damn blue, and her smile was always real. It was also rare. But I could make her smile, and I liked it. I wanted to do it. Made me smile in return.

Simp

Tallulah had a great smile. It made bad things seem less important. Like she saw a rainbow around the corner. Her eyes didn’t twinkle with flirty intentions. She didn’t even know how to do that. It was refreshing. I had enjoyed that about her. I missed it. I was going to make sure I got that smile again. I was done losing shit. I’d lost enough already.

“I read too,” he replied.

Oh my gpsh, now that Nas said that he is a perv is making everything this dude says sus wtf.

“Twilight, Harry Potter all seven books, Beautiful Creatures, Hunger Games, City of Bones, Matched, The Selection, Before I Fall . . .” I

*snaps*

Thanks for the apology, but it’s irrelevant now and a little late.”

OMG THAT- I- Just snaps you Tallulah deserve all the snaps

Coach D again . . . I didn’t trust that man.

Gosh Nash is making this duude seem so sus. But lowkey maybe Nash is right...

He was handsome. Distractingly so.

Queue bad idea by Adriana Grande

The way he said it made me pause. It was almost . . . No. I was being silly.

RED FLAG *ALERT ALERT* RED FLAG

Mr. Dace was different.

Different girl i think he only has eyes for you. This is turning into some Pretty Little Liars season

“Fine,” she said. No excitement there, but I had enough for the both of us.

Oh that's cute cute

But here I was. Getting ready for a date with Nash Lee. When he had asked me, it had taken all my focus not to grab on to my car for support. My knees went weak, my stomach was so tied up in knots I thought I needed to bend at the waist, and I couldn’t remember how to use words.

Dammmmm Shes a good actress he had NO IDEA!!!

Very edgy, sexy, casual. I like it. I may steal it.”

Wow she is the definition of "cool mom" with that comment

She smiled. At me.

Eeeeeek

“Tallulah, this is Blakely. I’m sure you’ve never met her. She’s very self-absorbed. Doesn’t make friends easily,” Nash said with ease. Not missing a beat. I felt like giving him a high five.

Omg i love the two of them. They are freakin mean but ahhhhh this shiz funny

She’d Been Right There All Along

Wait huh? Why are they getting together so early in the dam story??? Somethings gonna freakin happen

Telling her that, though, would cause a fight. She’d never believe me.

NO DUDE. FREAKIN TELL HER BEFORE SOMETHING HAPPENS

hell looked like he was about to kiss her. Going in there and stopping it was my first reaction, but I paused. Because Tallulah wasn’t moving away. She wasn’t leaning closer, but she wasn’t moving back, either. Would she let him do this? Did she like this man? Had I been missing something all along?

NO NO NO NO. THIS NO. NASH GO THROAT PUNCH HIM RNNNNNN. BC NO. EW EW EW. Tallulah you dummy you are so naive.

After the complete shock of what had just happened sunk in, I jumped up, tripping over the chair I had been sitting in, and moved back.

Girl, YOU SHOULD HAVE LEFT.

I shook my head and backed up, then decided I better run.

ooooh now her brain works. Stupid girl.ughhhhh.

“Because I’m in love with you. I’ve fought it since day one. The first time I saw you. But you’re impossible to resist. I can’t help how my heart feels.”

NO. NO GET THE F AWAY FROM HER YOU PERV SHE IS A CHIIIILD FREAKIN 17 YOU DING DING.

“I bet you’d be hard pressed to find one girl in this high school who didn’t have a crush on Mr. Dace. Yet he wanted Tallulah, so that makes her a slut. He was the adult. He knew better.”

Fucking facts.

“No shit,” Asa replied, amused.

ASA NEEDS A BAE
