“Stay away from him, Megan.” I don’t have to ask who he’s talking about.
“Stay away from her!” It’s a bratty comeback but I don’t care.
“Who?”
He legitimately looks confused, and it just adds to my irritation.
“Miss Big Boobs, Kim Heart.”
“She has tits?”
I hate it, but his comment makes me smile, and then it turns into a laugh. He comes over to me, wrapping me up in a hug, and I nuzzle into him, wishing we could get out of here.
“I won’t let you pretend to be with someone else just because we can’t be together yet.”
“I know.”
“Now go home and get ready for the game tonight. I need to see you in the stands, cheering me on.”
I nod my head, and he leans down to kiss me. Feeling his warm lips against mine has me ready for more, but we don’t have time, and this isn’t exactly the best location. I’ll just have to do what we’ve been doing. Wait.
Chapter 6
Chris
We took down the Badgers in a blowout. I was nervous about it all coming together, but thankfully it turned out all right. The boys performed better than I expected, and I was right to push them so hard. There were scouts in the stands after the media came to film my first game. I even saw a few of my old coaches walking around and taking notes.
It takes a couple of hours after the game to talk to everyone and have the locker room speech with the players. Afterwards I have to do some handshakes with the news and a few boosters to talk about the upcoming season. Overall, it’s a lot more politics than I bargained for, but it is what it is. I guess if I want to continue to coach, this side is the bullshit I have to deal with.
The worst part about tonight was having to do an interview and having to watch helplessly as Croy went up to Megan after the game and put his hands on her. I had a news camera and a microphone in my face, so I kept it together. He reached out to touch her, but she just stood there with her arms crossed. Her big tits were perched on top of her folded arms, making them look obscene, and I’m sure that’s why Croy was hanging around.
Phil and Janet were close by, and they looked like they were having a chummy conversation with him too. That fucking kid makes my blood boil, and I’m pissed off that there isn’t shit I can do about it while I’m his coach.
I made it through the interview without incident, and as I walked past them to the locker room, Megan and I locked eyes. Her parents were so wrapped up in their conversation with Croy they didn’t see me signal to Megan to check her phone.
When I get to my office, I grab my phone and text her.
ME: TELL YOUR PARENTS YOU’RE STAYING WITH A FRIEND TONIGHT.
MEGAN: WHAT FRIEND?
ME: DOESN’T MATTER. TELL THEM I’LL GIVE YOU A RIDE SINCE IT’S NEAR MY HOUSE. I’LL DROP YOU OFF TOMORROW TOO BECAUSE I HAVE TO GO BACK AND GET MY STUFF.
MEGAN: SO YOU AND ME ALL ALONE TONIGHT?
ME: IF YOU TELL THAT FUCKER TO KEEP HIS HANDS OFF YOU.
MEGAN: MEET YOU AT YOUR CAR XOXO
