Their ragged breathing must have been clouding their separate objectives but the duo were on a mission. One to ruin and the other to build. It was a matter of who would go first.Well, they do say that the levels of desperation varies but when a woman becomes desperate, she defies all odds. That was exactly Meredith's case right now as she suddenly propped herself up and was staring hard at Kevin. He looked confused at the moment and was seriously hoping she would not try and ruin his task. He was the one to initiate the dumping, not her."That was a really good ride." She said to him.Sincerely, she had never been with a man like Kevin who knew his way around women. She wondered just how many girls he must have bedded in the past but that was in the past because she was about to become his present and future all together. She had it all planned out strategically in her head and only sought for a way to spill the beans on him.If only she had any idea that she was his second woman. Va
Whatever his choice was from his two options was about to be revealed.Kevin stood there waiting at the nearly empty pitch where everyone present was busy doing one thing or the other. He continued to pace around anxiously as he needed to be with the trio for the training."What kept you guys so long?" He asked."You tell me?" Allen said as he angrily dumped his bag on the floor."You know we got stuff after school and that's why we took a little while before coming out here again." Barry said.Actually, Kevin had been to school the next day and filled them in on his determination to learn from them on how they were going to play football with Valle high. It and not going to be easy and so, he needed the help of his best buds if he was going to learn anything least he flops and makes a spectacle of himself.Allen had noted that the coach was probably not going to add him up to the team and might keep him as a reserve as that tournament was one that would qualify them for the regionals
"Don't look at me, he kept probing." Barry said and Kevin went over to Allen."I did actually and all you need to do is assist me train." Kevin said to him.Allen had been so moved by the numerous rushing emotions that he suddenly turned around and hugged Kevin really tightly that it felt like he was beginning to break his bones. All his life, no one had made him such an offer of kindness which had been the possible reasons for his rough-edged behavior. He had grown up feeling the pangs of abuse so much that he had decided that he would be breaking up and away from all of it. Little had he known that he would be turning around to face another kind of life.Kevin had just done the unthinkable."What is going on here? Since when did Allen become a fag?" Niguel had just arrived at the scene and thought to tease.Although, he was actually amazed seeing that Allen was hugging his fellow man. That had never been Allen's style. He would even remove a friendly arm placed over his shoulder and
"So how did it go yesterday?" Mickey suddenly asked him as he he was taking stuff from his locker.Gary was startled as he had not been expecting him to be there to breathe down hard on his neck. By the heavens, he needed his personal space. However, he owed an obligation to Mickey and that was to spy on the four friends more especially, Kevin. He was going to have to do that as that was the price he would be paying for his secret to remain secret.Gary recalled how his childhood had been when he used to seem to like girls things. His father was with the army and would not hear of it as he feared that his son might want to alter his gender. So, he decided to take it upon himself to drill the young man really hard. It had not been easy at all on Gary with a dad like that but what could he say or do, he had to keep up with him.His father had warned him at some point of his life during middle high when he saw that he had begun to keep long hair. He stated that he was going to send Gary
The coach stood there waiting for any form of response from the rest of the team members but they all averted their eyes."Mickey, I don't think your team members agree with you. We do not have all day." The coach said."But seriously coach, what harm would it do for us to let him this once. Not like his bad sportsmanship would affect us. We got a whole week to the tournament. So I say, I think if Kevin insists he has become a good player overnight then we let him on the team. If all goes well, then we would have another excellent player." Mickey said like he actually cared.All he wanted was to see upright and in good defense of Kevin whilst what he wanted was so that they all have a good laugh off the guy. He could not wait to make that happen as he was sure all Kevin was angling for was to be on the team since he suggested it last time. Clearly to him, Kevin was on a spree to make him seem worthless in everyone's eyes and he was on a spree to prove that there were certain things he
"You bastard. You were supposed to report back to me." Mickey said as he grabbed Gary by the collar the moment he came into the bathroom where the latter was staying.He had been singled out by the coach and dismissed from training that day as he had clearly lost face before his team members. They had betrayed him over their newest star player and that was so painful. Usually, when he pulled off his fouls and pranks on people, they used to support him and keep it from the coach's sight but right now, they rolled him our straight before the coach and that was really painful.Mickey refused to stay back and watch his enemy and contender do exceptionally well in the field. The girls that had come to cheer for Kevin sneered at him, increasing the pain and disgrace he felt at the moment. He walked away and went to wait in the classroom alone so he could pick on Gary once it was time for prep to be over. He had been there brooding as he tried hard to calculate how possible it was for Kevin
"You happy now that you've done what's on your mind?" Gary asked him as he stood there feeling the height of embarrassment and everyone's eyes on him."You had it coming." Mickey stated."Just so you know, you no longer have leverage over me." Gary said as he turned away and left in a haste.The four were part of those who had witnessed the entire scenario."I think I should go after him." Niguel said like he was needing permission to do so."Yes. You should do that." Allen said as he patted his back.Kevin was dumbstruck. To think that he had earlier been defending Mickey with the excuse of course that he probably had made a really big mistake during the games. Allen and the others insisted he had done it all very intentionally but Kevin would hear nothing of it as he clearly did not want to assume the worst of the guy that had solicited for him. He saw no reasons with regards to why he would want him on the team after pleading ever so earnestly only to hurt him. It actually made no
Mickey could not believe the horror of what had happened. He had been receiving all the blames and annoying sad glances that all he could do was stare like he was in a trance as tears filled up his eyes. He had messed up big time and there was no way of alleviating his errors. How had he gone and become like this. He had totally become a monster all in his blind search for vengeance against someone who actually wished him no harm. He could not help but feel the pain of the rejection and his cruelty.He could not take it anymore. The judging glances and the side talks. Everyone seemed to have a lot to say and he wanted out of that space. He got up suddenly and made his way out of the classroom as he ran all the way down."Mickey, wait!!!" Someone called out to him but he would not stop.His heels kept clicking as he ran. The urge to stop was not even there. Clearly, there would be no more classes as all staff were at a meeting with the principal. Mickey kept running until he got all the
