The Academy's Most Desirable (For Jack-L)
Colin slumped back against the red brick wall and stretched his legs out in front of him. Chewing the end of a slim green pencil, he surveyed the pale yellow printout that lay on his lap. At the top, in bold green was the heading "Gift of the Gab."
Colin's gossip blog was the rage of the school, to put it mildly, and had twice as many followers as the official blogs published by the respectable members of the student council. It was unabashed and lurid, imaginative and well researched. And right now, he was looking at a printout of the blog summary.
Smirking at the huge number of followers printed at the top right hand corner, Colin was wracking his brains, struggling to come up with an eyeball grabbing topic for his next piece. Raising his head, he caught sight of a familiar figure crossing the grounds. He couldn't take his eyes away. And just like that, the light bulb flashed.
"The Academy's Most Desirable", he murmured to himself, as he popped the pencil out of his mouth and scribbled the new topic on the back of the paper. Of course, it was time to get down to the research.
