Darby Allin had been joking when he said he was voting for Jon Moxley for Student Body President. It was that Chuck kid’s fault really, always going on about something…

It’d been the start of the semester, phys ed class. Despite it being a nice day outside, those idiot jock twins had convinced Coach to have them all play basketball. Darby was on defense, guarding Chuck. Who was rambling on about something or another. The ball was tossed to a wide open Orange Cassidy by one of the Jacksons, only for it to bounce off his chest. Darby grabbed it quickly and brought it to the three point line, turning around to get nearly smacked in the face by Chuck’s outstretched hand. 

“...Jericho is lame but MJF is annoying,” Chuck continued to ramble, Darby rolled his eyes, trying to look around the bigger kid, “who are you voting for?” Chuck asked. Darby sighed. 

“I dunno, Jon Moxley?” Darby grumbled, trying to dribble around him. 

“You’re voting Mox for Student Body President?” Chuck laughed, rather loudly. Mox wasn’t running in any stretch of the imagination, so it was kinda weird, but really he had just said the first name to come to mind. In the end Darby was too busy driving to the basket and scoring a layup to notice the reaction. He looked around after the ball fell in with a satisfying swish. The entire gymnasium was looking at him. 

“Dude that’s genius,” one of the Jacksons said, breaking the silence. 

And thus the campaign for Moxley’s candidacy started. Without Mox even knowing. Jon rarely came to school in the first place, and when he did he was always starting fights, so it wasn’t all that surprising he didn’t know about it. Darby hoped it wouldn’t be a big deal to the belligerent junior, but hoped more that it wouldn’t come to fruition. These hopes were dashed when the current Student Body President read out the winner. 

“Jon Moxley?!” Chris Jericho screeched. “He’s not even on the ballot!” The school erupted in cheers.
