tennis game gone wrong !
devon felt betrayed. utterly betrayed by everyone.
she was now walking inside the tennis court, quinn following behind. they were so awkward as they grabbed their tennis rackets that devon felt the need of the floor to completely swallow her.
they were completely silent, neither knowing exactly what to say. she could feel quinn looking at her but when she would decide to look his way he would look away.
"are you having a good time in the lake house?"
"yeah, it's been realy great, seeing everyone again" she smiled softly, feeling his stare on the side of her head.
"i'm glad"
they smiled at each other before devon finally walked to the other side of the court, prompting quinn to shake his head softly while he muttered stupid over and over again under his breath as he walked to his side of the court.
the ex-couple quickly started the game, going back and forth with the ball, neither losing sight of it.
the game got hard and filled with tension. they weren't experts at the game but it was a hobby they had taken back in umich, resorting to play it whenever they could to pass some time together between hockey and gymnastics training.
neither wanted to let the other win but they were getting tired, they had bren playing for almost an hour and the game was tied, with just four points each.
devon was about to fall from exhaustion, already feeling too tired under the blinding sun but she was not letting quinn win and neither was he.
at last, just when quinn thought he was finally gonna win devon surprised him. she had managed to leap from one side to the other and hit the ball with the racket just as she fell on her side.
quinn, too shocked to notice, dropped his racket and ran to her side.
"are you okay?" he yelled, running to her side, hoping she wasn't injured.
"i won! i won! suck it" she laughed, wincing as she carefully sat up, rubbing the shoulder she had fallen on.
quinn skidded to a stop at her side, kneeling and hesitantly touching her back, using the excuse to help her sit up "what?"
"i won!" she exclaimed, looking at him with a smile, yet to regret the extent she had taken to win, too excited to notice the pain.
"are you serious?" quinn laughed slightly, tilting his head down at her to look in admiration. she willingly fell to the floor, possibly injuring her shoulder, just so she could win a stupid tennis game.
"not my fault you got distracted" she mused, wincing slightly when she tried to move her shoulder.
"shut up. come on" quinn sighed, moving to her uninjured side and silently asking with his eyes if he could touch her, at not seeing any discomfort he took the risk and wrapped his arm around her waist to help her up, not being able to hide his concerned gaze.
they left the rackets and balls back on their place and decided to walk to the restaurant part, to see if they could give them some ice, since quinn was insisting she needed to put it in her shoulder before the pain got worse.
devon kept insisting she was fine, even laughing at his expense, seeing him almost demand the poor waitress for a pack of ice. when they finally got it, they walked to one of the farthest tables outside, sitting across each other while dev kept the ice stable.
devon didn't know what to say to break the awkward silence that had engulfed them once again. the only thing that was running through her mind was that quinn's worried gaze was strongly reminding her of a similar situation back in umich, when life was good for both of them.
"dev, i can't do this" quinn said quietly, leaning his arms on his knees.
"do what?" devon whispered, afraid to speak louder.
"be this awkward with you, you know?"
"quinn..." she sighed, already rubbing at her head.
"devon, you don't know how much i've missed you and i know i don't have a right to feel that way but i'm just so sorry dev, you don't know how much i regret it" quinn rambled, looking at his hands as he talked.
"quinn, stop" she ordered, looking coldly at him.
"i know it was my fault and i know i deserve to feel this way" quinn continued, before he was cut off by devon.
"stop it. you don't get to tell me how you feel, and act like the victim and tell me how much you regret it. not now" she sharply argued, hating the way he was springing this on her on such a good day.
"dev-" he uttured, looking apologetic. it seemed the only feelings he had when she was around was regret and disgust at himself, but he knew he deserved it.
"you're being unfair, okay?" she whispered, her eyes staring to water with emotion "you caused this, you made this bed and now you have to lie in it. you don't get to feel sorry for yourself"
"i'm sorry dev" he repeated again, like a broken record.
"so you've said" she murmured, placing the ice pack on the table to wipe under her eyes, catching a glimpse of quinn's teary eyes "don't look at me like that" she croaked just as tears fell from her eyes.
quinn immediately stood up, pulling his chair to rest infront of her's, grabbing her hands that were desperately trying to cover her face. "no no, dev, don't cry. i'm sorry, i won't say anything again, please don't cry" he pleaded, softly wiping the tears off her face "let's start over, okay? do you think we could amend our friendship, are you okay with that?"
"i would like that, yeah" dev sniffled, smiling slightly at him.
"okay, now don't cry. i don't deserve your tears" he said, grabbing her hands that rested on her lap and squeezing them tightly.
"are you hungry?" she asked, earning a smile from quinn as he nodded.
