He has my girl for now, but that ’ s all right.
“ What ’ s the plan for this weekend, big boy? ” Malcolm asks, polishing off a whole plate of ribs. I ’ ve gone back to sitting with the boys from the team during lunch. India is convinced that we don ’ t have any chance of ever being together, and that ’ s fine. She has to see that I ’ m working on myself. The main thing is that I have to stay away from girls. No one apart from her exists anymore.
“ Don ’ t know. We have practice tomorrow, no plans beyond that. ” I respond, genuinely not interested. India hasn ’ t shown up for lunch yet. Evans is cracking some jokes a few tables away. I really want to remove that smirk from his face.
“ Listen, man, there is that party in Robinson ’ s house. I heard that it ’ s going to be epic. ”
“ Are you going? ” I ask Jacob, who has been silent for most of lunch, but that ’ s normal for him.
“ Probably. You know Dora, she won ’ t miss a party. ”
That ’ s awkward. Jacob and I with the rest of the team used to be at all the parties. Most of the guys from the team were single, so they were hoping to pick up some girls.
“ All right, I might show up as well, ” I tell him. He frowns and puts away his sandwich.
“ Is that your big master plan to get her back? Parties and fucking more girls? ” he asks, like he ’ s an angel and has never done that before. He was a wild card, fucking anything that moved, but now he is all over Dora.
“ Don ’ t worry, man. This won ’ t be about any girls. I just want to relax and have some fun. She needs to see that I ’ m over her before I can start putting something in motion, ” I assure him with a wink.
“ Whatever, I can smell trouble. Look at MacKenzie. She has her own idea of fun, ” he points out.
I look behind and spot MacKenzie, who sends me her most smooth and sexy smile, revealing a lot of her cleavage. She hasn ’ t given up on me. Nothing, I don ’ t feel anything for her; my dick is flat, so I turn around. “ I ’ m going to get her back. You ’ ll see. ”
Jacob doesn ’ t seem convinced, but when Dora approaches, he forgets about our conversation.
“ Come on, bear, we need to go, ” she says, kissing him in front of all the guys. Then she leans next to me. “ I ’ m watching you, Oliver. If you hurt my girl again, I swear to God I ’ ll do anything in my power to destroy you. This is going to be so much worse than high school. ”
No one else can hear her as she leans towards me, whispering all these words close to my ear with her sweet smile before she walks away.
For a second I want to say something back to her, but then I know that she only wants to protect India, so I keep my mouth shut. My reputation in Braxton makes me invincible and I ’ ve got to change that, show people that I ’ m not some cocky arsehole who ’ s good in sports.
Next day is the weekend and I get up early. Keeping myself busy is a good plan for now. Normally on Saturdays I lie in bed until late. In the past few weeks I was doing that with India. Now I don ’ t let these memories take over my positive mood. That ’ s the thing with memories — you can go back to them over and over again. It ’ s always bliss to think that I made her happy. I have a quick breakfast and then get on with the session at the gym. There I just let go of myself, trying to work out until the pain is gone.
India isn ’ t with me and I don ’ t even want to think about her naked body pressed against that jackass. I waste some more time later on. Around five o ’ clock in the afternoon, Jacob arrives back with a few rugby guys. We have a few beers and discuss the strategy for the upcoming match. In some respect my mind is somewhere else, and I start to question my new plan. She has to see me there. I ’ m not sure if she is going to show up, but I want her to see that my life is moving forward.
Close to nine in the evening, I put on jeans and T-shirt and
