Se connecterMegan's PovVinn and I had settled into watching a movie. I could feel the way his finger was trailing down my body as if he was tracing through a map. I didn’t mind how the goosebumps formed on my skin after his touch; if anything, I just loved the attention that his touch gave my body.I touched the side of his body, my eyes on the bruise on his shoulder. “You didn’t get this checked out, did you?” I asked.He hummed. “It was a lazy tackle, i don’t think I need to...”“You have to. If it doesn’t act up now, that doesn’t mean it won’t act up later in the future,” I said in a firm tone.He sighed. “Okay. I will, just because I know the best physician in town.”I let out a low chuckle. “And who is that?”His attention was on me, i could see that look in his eyes. “Oh, you wouldn’t know her. She has the best smile, and the crankiest laugh I have ever heard.”I threw my head back, laughing so loud at his words. “You know, I really have to g
Megan's PovIt wasn’t my finest moment, but it had to be done. I needed to see Marley; we needed to talk about this awkwardness that was swirling around us. I had waited for her outside her faculty; it was her last paper for the semester, I knew that.When she walked out, I didn’t miss the way she rolled her eyes when they met mine. I didn’t let that ruin anything, i just smiled as I moved to where she stood, hoping it wasn’t going to be a breakout moment.“Hey,” I said in a low tone.She huffed. “Hey, it has been a minute,” she said, smiling. I shook my head; we weren’t fighting, I guess it had all been in my head. “Where is Vinn? You both have been inseparable; I thought he would be here with you, shouldn’t he?”There it was that tone, that soft, yet hard burning tone that hits just right below the chest. “Vinn has things to do and I wanted to...”“You came to the second-best clown to keep you company.”My brows dipped. “Marley, what are yo
Vinn's PovCaleb walked behind me, i could hear their bickering, but my mind wasn’t fully on the conversation that they were having. I wasn’t interested in it. His hand swung over my shoulder, his eyes watching me. “Cap, what do you say? We should have a party or a dinner?”I huffed, shaking my head at his offer. I knew they had been waiting for me to plan something after the big win that we had. But to be frank, all that had been on my mind was just hanging out with Megan.Every minute felt like we were making new memories to untint the ones that we had destroyed. “I am sorry boys, but Megan and I already have plans.”They groaned, i could see the smile on their faces, but they said nothing. Caleb huffed. “You know, I get it. You are a man in love; that is a beautiful thing, but the last thing that I... we...” he gestured to the guys. “The last thing we want is to have you neglecting us to be with your girl.”I rolled my eyes at them; of course he was
Megan's PovEverything felt back to normal. I sat and watched the guys make fun of everything that Vinn did, and how hard Vinn was trying to keep himself from looking annoyed.I leaned onto his body, enjoying the way his body shielded me as if he was trying to protect me from the cold. “Hey, you good?” I whispered, my hand on his thigh, gently patting him. I could feel him stiffen; my fingers trembled begging to be pushed down. All that I needed to do was trail up his thigh and I would feel his...“As good as I can be, I mean, it doesn’t get any more fun than this, watching the way you all are having a laugh at my freaking expense,” he said, narrowing his eyes at his friends.Caleb grinned. “You know, Megan, when you both went on that break… hiatus or whatever it is that you were doing, I don’t think we have ever seen Vinn that horrible before.” The rest of the guys nodded. “he would bum out, and just... he played bad. I think coach threatened to bench him
Megan's Pov“Is everything okay?” Vinn’s voice cut through, making me lift my head from the phone that I had been holding.I forced a smile on my face. I wasn’t going to tell him that for three days straight I had been getting random messages from James. At first, I had assumed that they were harmless messages, and after that, they became point-blank harassment.“Nothing, just checking out the sites, the administration had said they were going to take down every post, i just want to be sure that it is done.” I hated the fact that I had to lie to him, but I wasn’t going to tell him what James had done.“Is Nina bothering you?” he asked, staring at me with a soft look on his face. “I already told the administration to make sure that she doesn’t do anything stupid.”My heart tugged, i couldn’t help the smile on my face. After I had told Vinn about Nina’s actions. I didn’t know he was going to make sure that he took it up to the higher place. He had been the one to make it easy for m
Megan’s PovI felt lighter than I have in days. Exams were finally over; the championship had been won, every evening, I always looked forward to watching Vinn’s interview. I still couldn’t get over the fact that he talked about me like I was some important bit of his story.Even if it was real, it was all part of our little agreement, i liked it. Enjoyed the fact that he had that gleam in his eyes when he talked about me.My phone dinged; I didn’t have to look further; I already knew who it was. With a broad smile, I grabbed the phone. “Don’t tell me you miss me already.”He sniggered. “Well, given the fact that I have nothing but a bunch of journalists asking me a thousand questions, I am sure you already know the answer.”I chuckled. “What makes you think that I have no questions to ask?” I teased.He let out a hum. “Yours? I would answer with the widest smile on my face.” My heart did that tug, i didn’t know how to handle it. When he said things like this, it made it feel l
MEGANI could hardly breathe.Scratch that, I couldn’t even think.He tightened his grip on my shirt. “Tell me, what are you doing here?” His mouth was still pressed against my ear. I couldn’t even move. Humiliation, anger, and surprise slammed into me all at once. “Cat got your tongue?”“I school
MEGAN I can’t do this.I took long strides out of the restaurant, nearly falling because of how tall my heels were. I kept moving regardless, keeping my head low as the moment replayed in my head like it was stuck on a loop. James, my big-time crush, had seen me there. He had seen me in the shitt
VINN“Tonight’s game was insane!” Logan, my ever-loud teammate, said next to me, his voice rising over the music pulsing through my veins. He pulled Donavann into a headlock, grinning. “You were crazy out there, man. I almost thought you were a different person.”Donavann barely reacted.For the um
MEGAN‘Marley…. I swear…” I gritted, my fingers digging into my hands, almost drawing out blood. She said her blind date was an ugly, trust-fund kid, yet, the smug, arrogant six-foot-four across from me was the total opposite.I sat upright and cleared my throat. Although, I was met with something
