1month and 1week later.
September.
" Alright listen up guys. . . we have a big game on Tuesday the 23rd, hope you know that "
" Yes coach "
" Don't let me down guys " the coach said. I was now used to his attitude changes and was also used to the guys at the team, I now knew each of them by name and classes they took their girlfriends and exes where they stayed and now I realize it was a little too much but that's me I always want to know and get to know what I shouldn't.
" We won't coach " we all replied at the same time .
" You better not " he said with a serious look on his smug face.
" Team dismissed " he said then blew his whistle. The guy loved that thing, like it was his mouth toy. Sometimes it was irritating and other times it was encouragingly commanding and annoying. If I had it my way I would break it.
We went to the locker room to remove the training attire. Fridays were tiresome and also great.
" Hey Troy " Sydney said removing his training shirt and putting on the school one. Putting his sweaty self in a perfectly white shirt, all guys at the team do that at first I didn't like it but then I love it now.
'Over showering and smelling scents all the time is for bitches ' says the whole team. I'm not a bitch so, I love smelling manly.
" Yeah " I said and put my sweaty self in a perfectly white shirt.
" This is our chance to wow the coach " he said with a nervous look.
" I know, man " I said to him. Yes I was getting the hang of talking to people freely not being cautious about each and every word I said.
The last few weeks had been always the same everyday after school we would train and I somehow I became used to it, I didn't feel any pain after training.My muscles were used.
I would talk to Tess almost everyday which always made Ralph jealous he never showed it though but the way he always looked at me, just crazy. I would spend a lot of time with Jenny and on weekends we would hang. . . a lot.
Tess was still with Ralph and that hurt like a bitch, Jenny teased me everytime I sulked so I hid it well.
After changing I went outside the locker room and looked around for Jenny for no particular reason, I had this restlessness that I had to see her. It had also been like that for the past month, after training look for Jenny, it was imprinted in my mind.
My eyes landed on her and I approached her, she was talking to a group of her cheerleader friends near the outdoor court.
" One sec. . . " she said to a group of girls who I now realize didn't look the same, but then at that moment they looked like twins. . . wait no they were four, they looked like identical quadruplets. Same height, same size, same uniform, same smiles, same everything.
" What's up Chilly ? "
" Oh, never mind, you can finish talking to your friends " I said and felt guilty for interrupting, I didn't even have anything important to tell her.
" I'm done " she said.
" See you later guys " she smiled at them.
I heard the same voice say ' Bye Jenny ' but at different intervals like I said I didn't know them then.
" So you always have to be around me " she asked her expression not pleased not annoyed.
This was a tricky question, it either had to be a flattering answer or an excuse.
" I like being around you " I decided to go with the flattering answer.
She clearly wasn't flattered.
She just walked on and I followed.
I was definitely clingy, I couldn't help it though.
She hadn't displayed discomfort in anyway not until then.
" Troy " she stopped and turned.
" Do me a favor. "
" What is it ? " I said and recalled the last person I had done a favour. It excited me.
" Don't make a move on me okay " this was a shock. " It's a favor for you too " she added.
" Or else I will squeeze your balls so hard they will pop " she looked dead serious and really scary.
" And then. . . " she wasn't done.
" I will scrap your eye balls out and feed them to you "
God. Chills ran down my spine, but I was curious.
" Whi.. .which one will.. .you feed to me " I said a little crept out.
" Huh " she looked at me confused.
" The eye balls or. . . the. . "
" Both of them " she said.
I trembled a little more.
• Mental note - don't make a move on Jenny else you won't have balls or eyes, you would've eaten them.
= Self note - why do I keep making those mental notes I don't ever follow.
Is it weird that the mention of Jenny squeezing my balls really arouse me I imagined her. . . No no Never.
I gulped.
" Yeah. "
" Good " she smiled.
Why didn't she want me to make a move on her ? I wondered.
" I will help you "
" Hmm, with what ? "
" I will help you with your crush "
" Who ? Tess ! "
" Yes, it's been a month and you are not yet over her and you haven't made a move, clearly you need help " she said with a certain clarity.
" Oh, Okay " I said and couldn't help but smile.
" Now stop doing that, you look stupid " and again she spoilt the moment, she always does.
We were near Jenny's house when we saw Amanda and Jerome making out in a corner. They could've entered in the corridor nearby but I guess they were too horny for that, I wondered what it would be like if Jerome's mother found them.
" Ahhh " Jenny growled and by passed them.
" Hey " Amanda said and shied away on seeing us but not Jerome he had this stupid smile on his face like he'd finished a conquest.
" I told you they were serious " I caught up to Jenny and said.
" They are not serious, trust me I know him "
" They look so "
" He's always like that jumping from one girl to another after using them " Jenny shouts at me and unintentionally Amanda and Jerome were right behind us, they had heard everything.
I looked at Amanda and saw that she didn't take well what Jenny had just said.
Jerome looked sorry and was ready to go on his knees.
" I'm gonna go now " Amanda said and walked away swiftly.
" Amanda wait " Jerome said but she was already on her way.
I guessed there wasn't going to be any make out session for Jerome anytime soon.
" Are you happy now " Jerome walked up to Jenny and said then walked to their house.
Jenny walked in a minute after and didn't say anything to me.
I had this feeling that I'd caused the entire thing
