Jason's POV:
Whoa. Back it off a bit. Did I hear that right? Did Ella just turn down the offer to compete with Amber for the final position? What the hell is going on here?
Okay, so yeah, maybe we irritated her by following her around all day. She wasn't exactly thrilled about the attention she got because of it, but was that really enough to make her drop out? Amber's absence from school had taken up most of the gossip anyway, so it wasn't like people were paying that much attention to us hanging around Ella. No, there had to be something more.
