First move: hang out with Trim for a bit.
Second move: flirt him a little.
The third move: ask him a favour to borrow Skyler's phone without getting suspicious.
Fourth: if Trim got it, she would have it.
Fifth: delete the pictures.
Then TA-DA! She doesn't care what will happen next. The important is, she deleted all the evidence.
So let's start step 1.
Summer got to the school gym very early in the morning. It's still 5:30 and she's still so sleepy but she has to do her plan. The guard even stared at her like she has extra two heads because of her earliness. She even greeted him a nice morning and smiled.
She looked at the players. They are still four, Skyler's among them. Trim had not yet arrived. She waited a few seconds at the entrance. Hiding in a safe spot. She made sure no one would notice she's there.
Then Trim arrived. He hasn't known she's there or notices her. When he happened to walk past her unnoticed, she grabs his shirt and tugged his wrist abruptly.
"Hey, Ryan!" Skyler called his friend and threw the ball at him. He noticed him looking at one of the two entrances of the gym.
Ryan turned to him and caught the ball. "I just thought I saw Trim entering but he's not." He shook his head and focused on the play.
"ow! What the--Summer?" Trim is ready to curse when he faced who pulled him. He got surprised who did it. It's Summer Grant. The school's bad girl. But still her crush.
"what--" he's been cut off when Summer covered his mouth by her hand and shushed him. Making a quiet sign. He almost chuckled. She looked cute.
Then she pulled her hand away but gripped his and drag him with her.
He just let her pulled him to she knows where. He followed silently.
Then they both settled in a bench at the garden. People can't easily see them in their spot because they'd been covered by a large tree. Seems like it's giving them shade and protection.
"Trim.." Summer started. "I'd just like to thank you for taking care of my things the other night." She gave him a sincere smile.
Trim smiled too, showing his dimples. Oh, she found him really cute. "it's no big deal Summer. And I'd been willing to. Well, not to offend you, but... Did you drag me here just to say 'thank you'?"
"no! Not just that." She replied immediately. "well, I also want to make friends with you if that's fine?" She asked innocently, batting her eyelashes and using sweet voice.
"of course it's completely fine. Honestly, I feel honoured." Trim grinned at her and the dimples just got deeper and more visible. How she wants to pinch his cheeks. And she just did that.
She pinched both his cheeks and his grin disappeared. "I like your dimples. You look so fucking cute." Summer mumbled while gritting her teeth but she's grinning.
She then let go after a minute and Trim's cheeks had been so scarlet red. He's sure he blushed but Summer didn't know it because his cheeks just got that red from her pinching. He massaged his cheeks. "that hurts." He grumbled lowly.
Summer laughed. "I'm sorry. Can't help it."
"it's fine. I know I'm that cute." He cocked.
"Yeah, you're right."
"I thought you never noticed it."
"I did but I didn't know you're this cute in near person." She smiled cheekily.
"glad you did." He's flirting back with her.
They talked about random things and flirting is part of it.
Trim looked at his wristwatch later. He had forgotten their basketball practice. "oh God. I forgot about the practice." He mumbled but Summer caught it.
"practice?" Summer got confused then things got woken at her mind. "oh damn! I'm sorry. I got caught up in our conversations and I kept you around. Sorry, Trim." Well, she honestly forgot about it, even her mission during that time. He's so nice and friendly, just like Skyler.
"no. It's okay Summer. You don't have to say sorry. For me... It's worth it. You're so fun to talk to and I enjoyed it."
"really? Well... Me too. I had fun." She gave him a bright smile.
"as much as I don't want to, but I have to go." He said, standing.
"wait." Summer held his wrist. He looked down at her. "c-could you do me a favour?" She sounded hesitant.
"sure. What is it?" He asked.
Summer stood up so she doesn't have to crane her neck so high to look at him. Geez! Basketball players sure are so tall. He has the same height as Skyler. Wait... Seems like... She's always been comparing Skyler to someone. She erased that thought and focused on the current situation.
"um... Could you borrow Skyler's phone for me?" She eyed him but he hasn't said anything. "I just want to look at our photos when we happen to skate both. I also want to have a copy of the picture." She made out the story. But her compliments at him are true.
"Why won't you asked him yourself for it?"
"well, Skyler and I aren't in good terms right now. Could you help me have it Trim?" She displayed her puppy eyes and pout her lips.
"sure," Trim answered after a few seconds.
"but please don't tell him about me. Just give him random reasons... Please.." She pushed her luck.
"well... Okay." Trim smiled when he saw her bright mood got back. "I'll give it to you at lunch."
She almost sighs in relief but manages to hold it.
"sure. Meet me here. Is that fine for you?"
"Yeah. It is. So.. See you later?"
Summer chuckled. "of course see you later. And see you around."
Trim gave her a grin before waving goodbye for now and walked off.
When Trim's already out of sight, Summer slumped at the bench. Sitting alone and sighed loudly from relief. She smiled at herself. In what she'd achieved. Trim's not bad. Easy to Flirt with and very easy going. Same as Skyler but he just always has his guard up.
Ugghh! There's that comparing again! Skyler is Skyler! He doesn't have to be compared with anybody.
So, the steps one, two and three are done.
Wow! You're so good Summer. Way to go Summer! She complimented herself.
Only the fourth and fifth left. Well, the fourth is up to Trim. If he succeeds, then the number four is done. Then that leaves up to Summer for the last stage. Then mission accomplished. Well, still early for that. She shouldn't be so expectant in case the result would be a failure.
All she has to do is wait.
Wait for lunchtime to arrived and Trim would give it to her, if, he has it.
She couldn't just underestimate Skyler because that guy is so fucking tough. Almost knew anything also. Like she had called him: Mr. Perfect.
