Now You See Me — Episode 4

Mia, if you want to stay at Ridgewater for the summer. That's okay. Your dad and I trust Noah. Mom, I've made up my mind. I'm done waiting for people who are ashamed of me. Book the flight. I'm going to California. And when I come back, no one gets to ignore me

by the time i got home i was soaked through my phone chimed noah who almost never posted had updated instagram meet my girl at lila heart the comments blew up qb and cheer queen finally i knew they had chemistry homecoming king and queen energy then i saw one new comment mia bennett must be crying into a pizza right now she really thought noah hayes would pick

Then came the meme. Mascot material. Cheer tryout reject. When you think the quarterback is your boyfriend.

I turned off my phone and curled up on the couch. I cried until I could not breathe. Not his type. Not pretty enough.

Not thin enough. Those words had followed me since I was a kid. Noah was everything Ridgewater. Loved.

Tall. Rich. Golden boy. I was the plus-size girl next door.

The invisible girl. Girls hated that I grew up with him. Guys made me the joke, but Noah always protected me. Once, in high school, a guy said I would break the cheer mat if I jumped on it.
