Chapter 16

Scott

What the fuck was wrong with me?

I messaged my temple as I made my way through my front door.

I collapsed on the couch.

Maybe this whole thing with Mia was a mistake. Sure, my popularity had gotten higher, and scouts and recruiters were watching me more intently now, which was good. That was exactly what I wanted. But at the end of the day, the lines were starting to blur.

I didn't like blurred lines.

No. I'm overthinking this. I was probably stressed out.

    Chapter 33 Mia My hands balled into fists as they all laughed and celebrated like they already won. Carter was at the center of it all. A shrill sound came out of the locker room. Then Carter picked up the call and placed it against his ears. He began to walk out. I hid, watching him walk out of the locker room and crossing towards a small store. I followed him and pressed my ears against the door. “Why the fuck are you calling me right now?” Carter said in his usual calm voice. After a long pause, listening to whoever was on the other line, Carter sighed. “Whatever. I'll call you later. Just don't contact me till I contact you, got it?” With that, I tiptoed away from the store. I made my way back to where we'd gotten the water. The cooler was still there. I crouched beside it and opened the lid. Dozens of bottles sat inside. I frowned. Something wasn't right. The bottles the players had been drinking from had a blue sticker around the cap. These didn't. I picke

    Chapter 32 Scott I could barely breathe as I moved through the ice. Every move I made felt like I had a brick lodged in my leg. Our formation was disconnected. My arm was killing me. It didn't help that the green vipers kept slamming into my shoulders every chance they got. I was barely conscious at this point. But that wasn't the worst of it. The worst of it was that the rest of my team seem to have the same issue, or maybe I was simply the one messing up the formation. Another goal by the green vipers. Fuck! We were already losing 4 to 0. Fuck! What the hell was going on? I stood, watching as the puck flew right past our goalie and into our goal. The crowd went wide. Coach was pissed. Shit! “Scott?” Liam asked. I had nothing to say. All I wanted to do was sit down, maybe even take a nap. A deep exhaustion had suddenly settled inside me. The whistle blew and the players began skating toward the bench. I dragged myself after them. My legs felt like they belonged t

    Chapter 31 Mia Scott left shortly after. He said he was going to sleep in Liam's room, and he'll be back in the morning. He mentioned giving me space. As soon as he left, I regretted it. I wasn't sure exactly what I regretted. Stopping him? Letting it happen at all? Both? That had been intense. My body still remembered every single touch. Every single groan and moan. I buried my face in my hands. “Fuck.” What had I been thinking? Mia! Scott and I weren't supposed to do that. We were fake dating. Fake. And he was an asshole. He was my brother's best friend. So why had kissing him felt so fucking good? So right? I fell back onto the bed and stared at the ceiling. I could still remember the way he'd looked at me before he kissed me. Like he'd been fighting the urge for just as long as I had. And then he'd admitted it. I've wanted to kiss you for so long. My stomach twisted. I grabbed my pillow and covered my face. This was bad. Very, very bad. I sat up again and

    Chapter 30 Mia “Hey, Carter. Was just leaving.” I said as casually as possible. Even the smile on my face was casual even though my heart was beating hard against my chest. “Already? I was really looking forward to getting to know you more.” He stepped forward. “We haven't even had time to talk.” “We did talk, Carter. You kissed me against my will.” “I kissed a girl I found attractive at a party. Didn't know that was a crime.” He was so close now that I could smell the alcohol on his breath. I scoffed. “Whatever, I have to go.” I said, checking my app for how far my Uber was. Carter grabbed my hand. “I think you should stay.” “No thanks.” I said and yanked my hands away, but he was stronger than I was. “What are you doing? Let me go.” Carter surprisingly let me go. He flashed a smile that barely reached his eyes and said. “I'll see you around.” Just then, my Uber arrived. I got in and let out a sigh of relief. For a moment there, I thought I had gotten myself into someth

    Chapter 29 I got closer. “Look, I don't have any more to supply tonight. How about tomorrow night?” Xander said. Whatever he was talking about must have been serious because he was practically sweating. “Oh, come on, man. Don't do me like that.” He said. Then as if the other person on the other line hung up, he glared at his phone and angrily shoved it in his pocket before turning around. He almost jumped out of his skin when he saw me. “Rough night?” “Uh, yeah, but I'll be fine.” “Wanna tell me about it? I can help you know.* Xander smirked. “The only way I can be helped is with a blow job.” It took everything in me not to punch him. “I wonder what Carter would think about you harassing his guest.” His smirk quickly disappeared as if someone had doused him with water. Aha! I hadn't been seeing things; he and the rest of his teammates were definitely afraid of Carter. I just needed to figure out why. "I'm sorry. It was just a joke." “No worries. I have no reason to

    Chapter 28 Scott It was getting harder to ignore what I was feeling for Mia. Even being close to her was dangerous. I took a drag of my cigarette, savoring the thick flavor of tobacco. My screen lit up just then. It was my father texting me to see if I was still coming for the party. I typed an answer that I was and shoved my phone in my pocket. The streets of Boston were busy. Cars everywhere, and more importantly, people. Fuck. I couldn't wait to go home and for things to go back to normal. I could forget about this fucking injury I had been trying to hide for the past month and maybe even take Mia's advice. Mia… When she'd touched my shoulder earlier, it had taken everything in me not to pull her close and kiss her. Why didn't I take the opportunity? She had looked willing? Or maybe I wanted her to look willing. No, I couldn't afford getting distracted now. My entire future, my pride was riding on getting drafted. Mia was a huge distraction. Sure, I enjoyed her com
