My Hockey Alpha Chapter 197

Say My Name

Nina

After the new girl, Sadie, ran out with a wig in her hands, my friends and I lost ourselves laughing on the bathroom floor. The ridiculousness of the situation made me temporarily forget about what I had seen in the girl’s strangely familiar eyes, as well as what Justin had said to me earlier about taking our relationship to the next step.

When Lori, Jessica and I finally regained control of ourselves, we stood from the bathroom floor and decided to head back out to the dance. By the time we re-emerged, however, the dance was coming to an end — not that I particularly minded. I was planning on going home, anyway.

I didn’t see Sadie anywhere when I came out, which was a relief. I thought it was a little strange at first that she was being so territorial over a dance that was out of my control, but I knew now that there was something off about those two. I couldn’t quite explain it, but I knew what I saw when I looked at both of them; they both looked too familiar at times to let it go, and I needed to figure out what was going on with them. That night, I decided that I would call the witch that Lori found and see if she could offer any sort of help. Maybe she could help me see the full truth and reveal who these two new students were.

I knew that it was probably just my own wishful thinking, however, that got me hooked on the idea that somehow these two new students were secretly Selena and Enzo in disguise. It simply didn’t make sense; if Enzo was here, he would have talked to me already. Even though I felt a strangely familiar connection to the new boy when we danced together, I knew that the real Enzo would have said something to me, something to ease my worries and let me know what was going on. That boy clearly didn’t know who I was.

But there was one possibility on my mind: what if Selena sent these two for some reason? It was possible that they were set up to be a distraction, or even some kind of test. They could have been spies that she sent to see if I was still trying to find Enzo. They also could have been Crescent spies, which wouldn’t surprise me considering the fact that Selena had worked with Crescents in the past.

Either way, the entire situation was fishy. I knew that my friends wouldn’t believe me until I had solid proof that something was awry, though, so I decided to wait and see what the witch would have to say about it.
