By the time Ace woke up, it was already noon. He sat straight holding his head. He noticed his friends still sleeping beside him and the place was messy with the beer cans and other party stuff. He took his cell phone to see if he received any other messages from Edwin but he there were none expect the messages from the people, who were unimportant to him.Stretching out his muscles, he stood from there. Then Jacob woke up followed by Freddie, and they all freshened up. After spending few hours there, they all left to their houses though they were going to meet again in the night.As soon as they left, he called Edwin. He wanted to meet him but the situations were not allowing them. When Ace asked for the meet, Edwin was not at his house. He was outside, looking at the things to buy so that he could gift something to Ace. The time Edwin wanted to meet him, Ace was with his father playing the role of a perfect son before his father’s business partners, who called

Without making noise, Edwin walked out of the house, taking his uncle’s car keys. He locked the house from outside and left to Ace's guesthouse. Edwin was smiling continuously; might be because Ace was the one, who helped him or for some other reason, he didn’t know. In an hour, he reached the guesthouse, where Ace was already waiting for him. Edwin entered in calling out Ace’s name. Then he found him near the swimming pool, sleeping on the sun lounger. Edwin’s smile widened, seeing him, and he slowly walked towards him. With his eyes shut, arms folded, Ace looked so cute and Edwin began adoring him, silently. Suddenly, Ace came out of his sleep and his face brightened as soon as he saw Edwin. Ace sat straight, speaking “Hey! Oops! I fell asleep.” Edwin sat beside him without fading his smile. Noticing his happiness, Ace asked “Won any lottery?” Edwin shook his head as negative without shifting his gaze away from Ace's blue eyes. He said “It was you.”

Edwin never noticed when the hours turned to days and days to weeks. He didn’t realise it till the competition came near. In the presence of Ace, he never bothered about anything, but it was the time for him to act as the perfect rival in front of everyone. The competition was going to held in four days. He was in his college practicing area, practicing along with his teammates while their coach kept scolding and yelling at them, continuously as he was expecting more and more from them. Though Edwin was looking ready for the competition, deep down he was scared. Not because of the competition, but because of the things that were going to happen after the competition. Even if Ace and Edwin promised eachother that nothing would change if they win or lose, but Edwin couldn’t be serene. He knew Ace’s temper and he was sure something would definitely happen. He was determined to not lose his relationship whatever happens, however Ace reacts. Taking a small

With all the players, who were ready to conquer the place with their play, cheer girls to support them with their beauty, audience to encourage everyone and the judges, the area was filled and looked spectacular. Among all the people, there stood two boys, looking at eachother with many emotions gleaming on their eyes. One with a little scared expression and the other with an assuring smile; Ace and Edwin kept looking at eachother.The game started and at first, both the Silver High and North Hill had to play with some other teams. Like everyone expected, both teams defeated their opponents and the next round started. They kept playing while having a few minutes break in between. The first day went good in which both the Silver High and North Hill won all the games against their opponents. The second day had gone the same and at last, there remained four teams. Silver High, North Hill, West Wood and Broad River.The North Hill had to play against West Wood to qualify f

Secretly, Kate took the cab to the hospital but she was unaware that Ralph was following her. After Edwin’s disappearance, everyone began questioning Ralph as Edwin walked out from the dressing room, for him. Everyone began accusing Ralph, indirectly that frustrated him more. When he noticed Kate was talking to someone secretly, he understood it was Jacob and followed her hoping they might have done anything to him.Ralph’s eyes filled with tears and he was startled seeing Edwin on hospital bed.“What happened to you?” He walked towards Edwin ignoring Ace, who was shooting daggers at him.Edwin’s lips curved up with a smile seeing Ralph. He felt it happened for good as Ralph was talking to him.Ace said “I should go. I will talk with you later, Ed.”Ace left the room as he understood they both needed to solve their disturbances.Ralph held Edwin’s hand, saying “I’m sorry, Ed. It all
