The song, Derek will sing after becoming friends with Becky.  :)

Melly dropped me at my doorstep and I bid her goodbye.

I went in and met my mom who interrogated about the match.
After answering all her questions, I went upstairs where I spent the rest of the day, doing almost nothing.

The next day also the same schedule was repeated.
Melly and I reached the field by 8:30.
I saw Derek in his vest, looking sexy and hot as always.
He saw me staring at him and gave me one of his sexiest smiles.
And this time I smiled back.
Oh! I couldn't be more upset from this soccer beast, even if I tried to.

The match begun and we performed. After that I went to my place and looked around the cheerful, happy and excited crowd.

On the opposite side, in the centre of the stadium, I saw Mike.
I waved but he didn't notice, then I wondered how lame it was.

I had some water and wiped my face with a towel.
Then I got up, pulled my dress from the edge, which was all soaked in sweat and went for the stairs.
Hardly had I taken a few steps that Mrs William stopped me.

"Where are you going?" she asked.

"To a friend of mine." I answered.

"You are supposed to stay here till the match gets over. And that is a rule." she said.

"Rules are meant to be broken." I smiled but she didn't change her stiff face which meant that I couldn't go.

I felt like revolting.

"Why?" I asked.

"The daily news' photographer will be here any moment and you have to be in the picture." She said.

I knew that it was a dumb excuse but decided to blend with her rules.

"I can't even go to the washroom?" I asked.

"You can but be back soon." she said and went to sit at her place.

I went to washroom and called Micheal and told him the entire thing that why I can't come to him.

He was cool with it.

We won again.
SCORE: 3-2.
Last minute goal, scored by Derek.

I went back to my place.
I sat in the corner as usual whereas everyone got crazy again.

Derek came to me and took the seat beside me.

Why was he suddenly so much interested in me?
Anyways, it was good for me. Hopefully.

He took a towel and wiped his face.

"Umm, Derek" I said.

He looked at me.

"That towel is mine." I didn't know what expression to give.

"Oh! I am so sorry." He smiled and handed me the towel, all soaked, once again.

I smiled and said "It's okay. Water?"

"Sure" he said and I gave him the bottle.

After he was done, he kept the bottle aside.
"Awesome performance, once again." He smiled and said.

"Thank you. And you also did well, even the word excellent is less for you." I said and blushed.

Look at you Becky. Did you know you were this good at flirting?

He got up.
"Wanna give the captain a victory hug." he said spreading his arms.

What? He wanted a victory hug! Was there a need for that?

I thought.
You want it too Becky.
I have never even touched him before, and this victory hug.
My heartbeat rose and I bit my lower lip in excitement.
Why was I so excited, after all it wasn't a kiss, just a hug.
Play cool you stupid creature, I warned myself.

"Yeah sure." I said and we hugged.
I tried touching less of him.

When I felt his warm hand on my back, a shrill ran down my spine.
I calmed myself and tried not to jerk.
Then, we parted.

"I am sorry." he said

"For what?" I asked him.

"I got you wet." He smiled and said.

Wet? I was already drowning in my adrenaline.
"Sorry?" I asked.

"For the traces of sweat I left on you outfit." He smiled again and it was enough to get me mesmerized.

"Oh! That is fine. I think that I will feel our hug till the time I remove this thing." I smiled back.

He chuckled.

"So what are you doing this evening, Becky?" he asked me.

"Nothing special." I answered.

Then my eyes scanned the stadium and I saw Micheal. He was sitting at his place, probably waiting for me. Then he walked towards the exit.

I totally forgot about him.

"So can you..." he was about to ask something that I cut him short.

"I am really sorry Derek, but I have kept someone waiting. I'll talk to you later." I said politely.

"Yeah sure" he said and we bid goodbye.

I ran out and found Micheal in the parking area.

"Hey Mike..." I called him.

He turned back and said "Hi Becky"

"I am sorry. Because of that Derek, I couldn't come to you immediately after the match." I lied.

"Oh! Did he say something, again?" he seemed concerned.

"No, nothing much. Just trying to be good friends and change things between us." I smiled.

"Okay, just tell me if he does something out of his limit." He said.
Oh! He was so concerned.

"Yes sir." I replied.

"Lift?" he asked pulling out his car keys.

"Sure." I said and went with him as it would take too long for Melly to get separated from Rowan.
However I texted her that I went home but didn't mention Micheal.
