Hacking The Relationship Code

Chapter 19: Let's go Blue!

Soon the Michigan Wolverines were announced too and the audience erupted into an even louder cheer for them. I saw the team making their way to the stand in blue and yellow. The Wolverine's quarterback was the first one to enter from the podium, followed by the rest of the team. The quarterback, Axel Maxwell received the highest cheer from the audience. He was a tall bulky fellow who could even put Liam Hemsworth to shame in the physique and looks department. Naturally, he was popular among everyone in the university. When Adrian entered, we all cheered for him.

The coaches of both the teams gave last-minute directions to their respective teams before the toss. The captains of both the teams gathered at the center for the toss. It was projected on the screen that the Wolverines had won the toss and opted to receive. We were all so enthusiastic about their win that even we joined the crowd hooting for our team.

"Go Michigan!! Bleed Blue!!"

Adrian was a receiver and he was doing quite well for the team. It was a treat to watch him on the field. It wasn't the first time I was watching him play but it was as amusing. His game had improvised considerably since high school. The reminiscence of the football match in our school field flashed before my eyes and a lazy smile took over my face.

By half time we were ahead by one goal. The players gathered around their coach for a quick water break. The coach was discussing strategy with the boys as they braced themselves for the second half.

Michigan was doing even better in the second half. We were good at offense as well as defense. Their hard work was paying off. The crowd had gone crazy by the time the countdown had begun. Michigan was now leading by two goals and it was going to be a clear win. Our group climbed up our seats and cheered unanimously with the others.

"Go Michigan! Let's go blue!"

The fight song played in the background as Michigan announced its victory against Maryland. We were all overjoyed and people started hugging and high fiving random strangers cheering with them. It was an important win for the Michigan Wolverines.

After the victory was announced and the song was played, the players retreated back to their pitch for a cool down recovery. Once that was over, the audience started to pour into the field to smother the team with their affection.

The players were encircled by reporters and fans who congratulated them on their epic victory. Even we descended from the stands to the field and waited patiently for Adrian to escape from the confines of the onlookers. Adrian wasn't much of an interview person. He entertained a few fans with some selfies and posed for a few team pictures. When he spotted us waving at him from a distance, a huge grin spread across his face and he started lunging his way towards us.

I ran the distance between us to meet him halfway on the field. He threw an arm around me to squish me into a tight embrace and lifted me in the air. He landed me on the ground after the heart crushing hug. As soon as he took off his helmet, I caught him off guard and attacked his lips with mine. I bought my arms to rest at the nape of his neck as I deepened the kiss. It took Adrian more than a slight second to register that I was kissing him. However, as soon as he got over his initial shock, he responded to my kiss by diving deep into it. He let go of his helmet and placed one of his hands in my silky hair. He synced his lips along with mine as he rested his other hand comfortably on my waist bringing me close to him. He tasted of the fruity energy drink he had had during the break. He sucked on my bottom lip, eliciting a moan from me and fought for dominion over my mouth which I happily handed over.

We were lost in the kiss, not registering the world around us. I don't know for how long we kissed each other but I can't put into words what I felt during that span of time. It was like my heartbeat was having a race of its own and my abdomen felt like I had lost my stomach. My spine was uptight with copious amounts on dopamine injecting my brain which froze it out completely.

I have had numerous kisses in the past but none of them could stand by this one. In that moment I wouldn't have cared even if the world came crashing down upon us. It was like I was feeling a plethora of emotions all at the same time; excitement, numbness, confusion, elevation, dilemma all scooped into a knot of wordlessness in my stomach. It was like living and dying in the same moment. It felt like I was drowning but there was no need to come up for air. I was falling but on a bed of roses. I was on fire but I wasn't feeling the burns.

A loud whistle from the crowd bought us back from the trance and he loosened his grip on me. We both regained our composure. The crowd was yelping for us and a rich vermillion blush crept its way on our cheeks. I smiled at Adrian who in turn gave me his most dazzling smile.

All debts have been cleared off coupled with exorbitant interest too.

***

To be honest, I wasn't much in PDA and stuff. However, I surely was someone who loved effort and sometimes even unconventional surprises. I believed in gestures; grand or small, doesn't matter but a relationship shouldn't ever fall short of gestures. If you asked someone, how was Ginna going in her relationships, everyone would agree that she was overly passionate and thoughtful. She might not always be very expressive but she had her way of manifesting moments and making her partner feel loved.

Some moments in your life stay with you forever. Even if they might not be of much significance later in life, your heart doesn't forget how it felt at that very moment. I was sure this was going to be one of those gems in my ever-inflating collection.
