Hunter and I were currently sat in the car in his drive way. James was already long gone, his job done. I didn't necessarily want to go home just yet despite how late it was. I was on Hunter's lap— the drivers seat of his range was reclined back, the sunroof wide open as we gazed at the stars.
We just sat and just talked about everything and nothing. I was enjoying the closeness of our bodies as he talked about his high school days.
"So you were the star quarterback in high school huh?" I asked teasingly "did you have the cliche head cheerleader girlfriend too?" I snorted
"Not quite, but my girlfriend at the time was pretty popular" he said laughing a little "she turned out to not be who I thought she was" he said seriously
"What happened? If you don't mind me asking" I asked realizing his change in demeanor
"Broke my heart that's what happened" he said laughing dryly "I was in love with her or I guess I thought I was—you could never be too sure it being high school and all"
I felt a ping of jealousy at the thought that he use to be in love with someone else.
He continued "I got hurt senior year during a game and next day she broke up with me. It was serious injury and I guess she thought I wouldn't be able to play anymore. That was the end of that—she ended up getting with one of my teammates too."
"Damn what a bitch" I said in disgust. How could someone be so fucking heartless?
"Yeah, it hurt like hell not gonna lie" he chuckled "I cried like a bitch, but I'm grateful. The whole thing made me stronger, you know?"
"I'm glad you could see the good in such a situation" I said laughing lightly
"The crazy thing is that my Ma told me she moved to New York. My Ma tried to get me to meet up with her, but I wasn't fucking with it"
After hearing that it made me actually hate his Mom just a little "doesn't she know why y'all broke up though? Why would she try that?" I questioned annoyed
"That's the thing she doesn't know. Couldn't bring myself to tell her. My Ma knows her family and I just didn't want it to be a thing so I kept it to myself" he explained
"Speaking of your Mom, I talked to her at the game today- Well yesterday" I said playing with his hands
"Oh really?" He said eyes widening briefly "thought you weren't gonna introduce yourself just yet?"
"She actually talked to me first"
"Well what did y'all talk about?"
"We talked alright, but let's just say it didn't go so well" I winced a little
"Hold on a second" he said chuckling "you were the girl she was talking about?!" He said realization hitting his face
"Wait what'd she say to you? She mentioned me?!" What did she fucking tell him!?
