"Well, start believing it, because you are kind of a star now. Every shifter in the world knows your name. It's pretty incredible." I blushed at her words and nibbled on my lower lip nervously. I wasn't sure what to expect going forward; would things start to change at school? Would people look atdifferently? What about my family? "There she is... the girl who madesurrender," another voice said and I turned to see Sherry walking towards us.
She looked a lot better as well, though she walked with a slight limp and had a couple of scratches on her arms. She had a soft smile on her lips as she approached and when she stopped in front of me, she bowed her head. "Congratulations. Your win was well deserved," she murmured, holding out her hand forto shake.
I smiled at her.
"You were a tough fight," I admitted, taking her hand and shaking it firmly. "For a second, I thought you'd win. It would have been an honor to lose to you." She grinned.
"You win some, you lose some," she said with a shrug.

As the ceremony commenced, food and drinks were served. There was more mingling, and I was even able to answer sof the questions for the paparazzi. They took a ton of photos offor headliners, I also took photos with other competitors.
At one point, Chester arrived with Matt and Matt was excited to be involved in the whole thing. He got sautographs from his favorite competitors.

There was no sign of Daisy yet, but I knew she'd probably make an appearance soon enough.
"You look like you're on edge," Nan pointed out. "Still thinking about Gavin and Daisy?" I nod.
"I'm trying hard not to, especially in front of Irene, but I can't help it, nan. Every tI close my eyes I see them together. It's drivingcrazy and makingfeel sick to my stomach." She grabbed another champagne flute and handed it to me.
"Then, let's forget about them," she said, raising her own glass in the air. "At least for tonight, let's just forget." She downs the champagne in one go and I take a long and steady sip of mine.
Then her eyes shifted behind me, and she frowned, corking her head to the side. "Isn't that Sammy?" I turned around and sure enough, I saw Sammy seated at one of the tables alone.

"A year," she sighed. "I thought he m could be the one, but I was wrong! He's jus Nike every other man." "I'm so sorry, Sammy," I said, wrapping an arm around her shoulder. "You don't deserve that."
"I just need to get away for a while and start fresh...". she toldsoftly.

"So, went to Gavin Landry..." My brows shot up and I looked at Nan who was equally surprised.
"You what?" I asked her, my voice coming out as a breathy whisper.
She nodded and nibbled on her lower lip.
"He pulled sstrings and now I'm am attending the Shiftex" she said a sprug. It's a change, but I'm ready for it." My eyes grew wider; that was my academy.
