10; we carried the team

Start from the beginning
                                        

everyone nodded, except me as i felt myself internally panic. he can't be serious.

"alright, let's do this!" he grinned before leading us over to the start area.

oh shit, he's serious.

everyone lined up, the blue team on the opposite end of the room, before we heard the whistle blow indicating the round had started. me and vinnie quickly sprinted to a more unseen area, ducking low to make sure the little wall covered us.

we stayed silent, both of us obviously uncomfortable. i kept my eyes on the ceiling, making sure to look anywhere but his eyes. he let the silence go on for one more minute, before breaking it.

"uh, are we just gonna stay quiet the whole round?" he whispered to me, keeping his voice down incase any blue members were near by.

i let out a short laugh, "yeah, well, you certainly didn't have a problem staying quiet at the gas station."

his face dropped at my tone as his eyes flickered, making me immediately regret how harsh i was. i sighed. "i-i'm sorry...i just, kind of wanted to say hey to you, that's all. it's been a while." i kept my voice as low as his.

"well...hey." the corners of his mouth lifted a little.

i laughed quietly, "hey, vin."

i saw his body relax once the words left my mouth, his small smile getting bigger. i don't think i've ever missed a smile more than i've missed his.

"so, uh, where's breanna?" i criss-crossed my legs, getting comfortable as i figured we'd be here for a while. his smile dropped a little.

maybe i shouldn't have brought up his girlfriend. maybe it came off as passive-aggressive. but, i was genuinely curious. she seemed quite possessive over him at the party, it was weird of them to not be together. but, then again, i have no idea how their relationship dynamic is. i can't really assume, i guess.

"she, uh, didn't really want to come. we, uhm..." he trailed off, looking off to the side, "it's just nice to get some space, y'know?"

he never wanted space when he was with me.

he's admittedly one of the most clingy people i've ever met; it's his love language. it's odd of him to say that when it's completely against his character. well, we have been broken up for several months. stuff has changed, i guess.

i nodded slowly, "yeah. well, regardless, i'm glad you found someone who makes you happy."

his smile grew back, not as genuine as the first time. "thanks. when do you head back to paris?"

"oh, today's actually my last full day here. i leave tomorrow night." i played with a strand of my hair

"cool, cool. how's it been so far? i wish i could visit, or something."

i felt my heart flutter. he's being so casual, like we've always been good and no harsh words were ever exchanged. i feel like some people would think it's shitty of him to act like he never did anything wrong, and maybe they're right, but i don't care.

he's right next to me, smiling and talking like we're the same best friends we were before everything became complicated. how could i possibly stay mad at him?

"it's been really good. it's so beautiful, man. it can be stressful at times, but seeing the look on people's faces when the models walk down that runway makes it all worth it." i couldn't help but grin. i really am grateful for the job i've been blessed with, even if it does aggravate me at times.

"dude, that's so sick. i'm so proud of you, like seriously. do you have a house there?"

i felt my cheeks become warm at his words. "an apartment, and i'm sure you've heard larri gush over my dog by now. i live by myself, which is really refreshing. i think i'm naturally an isolated person."

he nodded, "yeah, yeah, i think so too. it makes sense. and, yeah, i've heard more than enough about impala."

we both giggled, our heads turning towards each other. our laughter calmed down and we just sat in a comfortable silence, looking at each other.

is it cheating to stare at another girl's lips? if so, vincent is definitely cheating on his girlfriend right now.

"so," vinnie started, ripping his eyes away from my face and sitting up a little, "tomorrow, uh, before you leave maybe we could-"

his voice was cut off by the sound of the whistle, announcing that the round was over. "welp. we were literally useless to the team." i laughed a bit, dismissing whatever he was about to say as we got up.

i doubt it was anything important.

"nah, we carried the team on our fucking backs." he smirked with a shrug, and i shook my head at his false confidence.

"sure, vin-vin, sure." i walked in front of him to hide to wide grin on my face, and heard him following close behind.

maybe being on the same team wasn't so bad after all.
