A Virgin For The Player Chapter 64
Caroline After watching the hockey game, I’m still sitting on the bleachers. Rebel and Alice have left, but I’m waiting for Andrew to come and find me. My heart is pounding in my chest, and as soon as I hear a door open to my left, I realize that it’s now or never. I have to tell Andrew how I feel. The problem is that I’m… scared. I want to work on myself, and I’m sorry, but I don’t think a knight in shining armor is the answer to my problem. And yet, my heart races for the black-haired, newly showered guy on the bottom of the bleachers. Dark eyes meet mine, and I’m instantly a goner. What was I supposed to tell Andrew again? That I don’t want to date him right now, and it's not about him, but about me? Yeah right. Try telling Andrew that when he looks like he stepped out of a daydream. He is smiling at me with a dimple popping on his cheek. “I was half-worried you didn’t stick around and had already left.” I wrinkle my nose. “That would be rude.” He shrugs. “You never kn

Caroline Shame fills me when I look down from my seat in the ice arena. I'm here to watch Andrew's game, but so are Rebel and Alice. They are sitting a few rows below and shooting glances that fill me with guilt. I'm a terrible friend. Rebel had her operation recently. I never went to visit her. Again, I'm a shitty friend—I know that. But... it's what my depression did to me. Ever heard of this song, Novocaine, by The Unlikely Candidates? The singer sings that he will let people down if they let him too close, and I feel the exact same way. I'm not a good person. No, I'm terrible, and it was a mistake coming to Andrew's game. What am I thinking? I couldn't possibly start something serious with him. Not when I keep letting the closest people to me down. Swallowing, I let my gaze travel to Andrew. He is sliding over the ice with the puck going from the left to the right. A smile breaks over my lips as I watch his huge form skate. Despite being so large, his precision and eleganc

CarolineIt feels weird sleeping in the same bed as Andrew. After the drama with Jonatan, Andrew refused to go home, and we fell asleep watching a movie. The problem is that I jerked awake again, and now my heart won't stop racing because my ex-boyfriend is cuddling with me.I glance to the side with mechanical movements, and I'm blown away by cuteness. Which is freaking odd. Nothing about Andrew is cute except his personality. Still, when I look at his dark eyelashes spread over his cheeks, I'm hit with longing. He is so sweet.How could I not notice just how sweet until now? The silly guy is holding on to me as if he is scared I will vanish if he lets go. My heart swells. A part of me wishes to reach out and touch Andrew. Not inappropriately. I just want to kiss him. Hold him and... forget that I'm a trainwreck and that we aren't right for each other. I sigh. I should talk to my therapist about this.***The following day, I'm sitting inside my therapist's office. Her name is Lin

CarolineThis must be hell. Andrew gave me time to think about us, and I didn't have it in me to turn him down right away. I will turn him down, but I will pretend to think about it to make him happy. In my world, that is giving someone false hope, but Andrew doesn't seem to agree. He is happy I "decided" to think about it, and now he lounges in my bed. Shirtless. Delicious, and eating my chocolate bar. "I was going to eat that chocolate bar..." I sound like a brat, but I'm grumpy because it was my KitKat. "You snooze, you lose."I snort. "Excuse me?" I can't hide the smile spreading over my lips. Andrew says the craziest things. "This is my apartment. You don't just go and raid people's fridges. And PLEASE, put on a shirt, will you?""Why?" Andrew looks up at me in alarm, like I'm the crazy one and what he is doing is normal. I can't believe this... I'm standing by the door, unsure what he is doing inside my bedroom in the first place. "Because we aren't together! You shouldn't

Caroline"Take this pea package and hold it against your eye," I give the package to Andrew. He is sitting on a chair in my kitchen, shirtless because his t-shirt is red from his bleeding nose. Jonatan punched him in the face, which wasn't smart. Out of the two, my hockey friend is the better fighter. The model boy didn't stand a chance. Sadly, Andrew has some wounds to lick now. "Thank you..." Andrew winces when the frozen peas connect with his skin and shudders. "It's cold..."I laugh at him. "What did you expect?""I don't know... maybe a thank you kiss for saving your ass? It would make some of the pain go away."I smile down at him, thinking he is joking. Though, I'm now met with entirely solemn eyes and lips that look poutier since Andrew was punched in the face. It's hardly the right time, but his mouth looks so kissable. Andrew was always a good kisser...I stare at those swollen lips and then down at his chiseled abs... damn. Andrew is more ripped now than when we were to

AndrewI'm on the beach with Caroline. We are sitting on our sunbeds underneath the dazzling sun. I'm spread like a seastar while she sits with her knees bent to her chest. A water bottle is held by her hand, and I catch a droplet running down her chin as I eye her in secret. Since her scars are new, Caroline is fully clothed, and I found her shade under a parasol. She is gorgeous and a real doll for saying it won't bother her if I swim. And I will. I'm already dressed in my swim trunks which I luckily had in my car. I like surfing, but I don't have a board. It sucks...How am I now supposed to impress Caroline? She is immune to my flirting, and it won't get me anywhere. And since she is dating a model, she probably isn't amazed by my physique either. Caroline likes paper-thin boys with beautiful faces, and here I am, lean but much larger than her man and less pretty. I kinda wish I had blue eyes or some other interesting trait...I stare at my naked toes, and Caroline turns my wa

CarolineI'm sitting in the hospital lobby. It's time to leave, but Jonatan is too busy with some modeling gig to come and pick me up. Luckily, I got it covered: I was close to calling a cab an hour ago, but it seems Andrew got my back. He texted me and said he would pick me up from the hospital. I smile down at our text conversation. Heartbreaker: How are you this lovely morning?Me: Sad...Heartbreaker: Why?Me: I don't have a ride home from the hospital. Jonatan is busy, and I didn't bring my car. And I'm also hungry. Heartbreaker: I will be there in ten minutes to pick you up, and then we will grab some food from the drive-thru. Me: Why does it sound like you're inviting yourself to my place?Heartbreaker: I'm definitely planning on staying for a bit.Me: HMMMMMM...Heartbreaker: Haha, admit you like my company!Me: Questionable...Heartbreaker: I can cook you some nice authentic Korean food if you let me come over. Anything you want. Kimchi... japchae... the possibilities ar

AndrewConfession: I can't stop thinking about Caroline, my ex-girlfriend, and tonight, I'm about to break up with my new girlfriend, Amy. She is a great girl, but it won't work between us. It's not fair to date her when my heart belongs to Caroline. I sigh in front of the dinner table. Amy is at my place. I called her here to talk. Judging from her worried expression, she knows what is coming. And truthfully, I knew this would happen too. Luckily, Amy can't take it too hard. I've been honest from the start: I told her I'm not over my ex-girlfriend. I said dating was a bad idea, but... she convinced me I was wrong.But I was not. "Amy..." I don't think there is a right way to begin one of these talks. I'm going to hurt her, so I better not sugarcoat it. "I want to break up with you. I'm still not over Caroline, and... you deserve someone who sees you, some guy who gives you all of their time."Her lips form a sad smile, and I would love her back in a perfect world, but the reality
