Soccer practise usually isn't too bad but when it's like a million degrees outside and we can't one single water break it feel like absolute hell.
"What the fuck is going on between you and my sister?" I ask Marcus who now looks like all the life in his body was just sucked out.
"Nothing" he says in a high pitched squeaky voice.
"Bullshit" I tell him.
"Well- Um- me....Hannah....- your sister is....-"
"You know what, stop the idea of you and my sister together makes me want to chop my dick off and lie in a bath of bleach"
"That's sweet" Marcus smiles, "doesn't make me feel uncomfortable in the slightest".
I turn around and a soccer ball gets flying towards my head, I catch it before it hits my head. I throw it back to the junior that kicked it. "Johnson over here!" Not again.
I slow-mo run over to coach to piss him off.
"What do you want your highness" I bow down in front of him.
"Reece this is our new player Ashton, he's a transfer student" coach points to a tall muscular person. He holds out his hand which I shake. "Ashton this is my striker and captain, Reece Johnson. So Ashton go put your stuff down and then we'll start some games"
Ashton strolls off and coach steps closer me "I don't really trust that guy so can you keep an eye on him?" He asks me.
"Sure"
"Last one over to here does one hundred pushups!" Coach yells and everyone runs over.
Coach explains what's happening today and then we start when Ashton walks back over "who's that guy?" Marcus asks me lowering his voice.
"Ashton, transfer student"
"Why was he transferred?" Leo asks looking at Ashton "sometimes when people are transferred it's for some dodgy things. I wonder what he's done in is past life. Drug addict? Mass murderer?"
"Leo I don't think he's deaf"
The rest of practice goes well. Ashton is a pretty good player a good addition to the team. But I don't trust him. He seems weird.
Swinging my bag over my shoulder I lean my back against the locker and I try to pay the attention to the conversation that's happening "what's that book?" Ashton points to the brown that's on a random shelf.
"This?" Easton picks it up and Ashton nods "it's the handbook" he says "it was here when we first joined, we have no idea how long it's been here"
"Handbook?"
"Yup. All the past players would write down their hookups in the book and rate them from one to ten and also wrote stuff about the girl" Marcus explains.
"Have any of you written in it?" The room goes silent.
"So have you guys all got chicks?" Ashton asks. Fucking hell does he ask a lot of questions.
"No but someone did bring a Rooster to school and let it ran free through the school" god dammit Max.
"People still say 'chicks' I thought that stopped in the 90s" Leo leans against the lockers with his arms crossed.
"Something like that" Marcus answers.
Ashton walks out and Max releases a deep breath "he asks a lot of questions" he says snd we all agree "we also gotta burn that damn book" we all agree to that too.
Walking out the locker room I notice Lexi standing with Ivy and Sydney, Sydney and Ivy both look shocked as Lexi tells them something, "who's that?" Ashton asks looking at them.
"Which one?" Easton and Leo both ask sounding very defensive.
"The brunette?"
"Which one?!" Leo raises his voice.
"The one with the black skirt and red shirt" Ah shit.
They all turn to me other than Max with big smiles on their faces "she yours?" Ashton asks me not taking his eyes off Lexi.
"Someone's jealous" Max's grin widens as I glare at him.
"Pretty sure you guys are just friends" Leo turns me "isn't that right reece?" I'm going to kill him "nothing has happened between you guys in the passed. They're strictly platonic" he laughs.
"Seriously, you and her a thing?" Ashton finally takes his eyes of off Lexi.
"No" I grit out.
"Cool" he walks away.
"I bet it absolutely killed you inside to say that" Leo opens his mouth yet again, I shove my fist into his stomach and he bends over in pain.
"Shut up"
****
My door opens and I groan turning around in my chair but my emotions changes when I see Kiara stood by the door looking very sad which is unusual for her happy six year old self. She's in her pink onesie with her bunny toy clutched to her chest. She yawns rubbing her eyes "I had a nightmare and I can't get back to sleep" she frowns.
"Come with me" standing up from my chair she takes my hand as I lead her downstairs and into the kitchen where I got her gummy bears from the pantry.
She followed to the living room, I placed her on the couch with her gummy bears and a blanket and then sat down next to her. I let her pick the movie we watch as I'm such a good brother "don't tell mom" I tell her.
"Pinky promise" she holds out her tiny pinky in front of me, I link it with mine and then she opens her gummy bears and starts eating them happily.
"I think you like Lexi" she tells me.
"Do you now?" I ask her.
"Yep" she nods "your always with her, you always look at her and you always talk to her"
"We're only friends Ki" twice in one day.
"Mhm"
My phone buzzes beside me with a message lighting up the screen, picking it up I see who it is.
Fuck.
