Via"Via" Kol calls out as he runs up the bleachers. "You need help?""Yeah sure." I point at the other end of the poster. "Help me hang that one up."We hang up the poster and walk back down the bleachers. "Did you make them all on your own?" Kol asks and I shake my head."No, me and Mr. Everhart worked on them together." I pick up another poster."Wow, you both are actually working together? I never would've thought." I laugh."Me either. He was annoying as hell when we first met him." I say as I unroll the second poster."Who's annoying as hell?" Justin says out of nowhere, making me jump and drop the poster I had in hand."Don't sneak up on me Justin." I glare at him and he puts up his hands in defense.."Sorry, I thought you guys heard me running over here" He grabs the poster I dropped and hands it to me. "Need more help?""Yeah sure, Grab a poster and hang it up on the gate over there." I point at the gate close to the visitors' opening gate door."Grab tape before you go, thank
ViaI look at my phone to check the time. 4:50I pushed all my feelings aside and decided to text Kol.Me: Let's go grab something to eat. I'm hungry.I slowly walk to the lunch tables and wait.Kol: We literally ate burgers earlier, how can you be hungry?Me:I've been having a really hard day. Let's go grab some food, pleaseeeee.Kol: Meet me in the parking lot at 5.I excitedly get up from the lunch table and begin walking to the parking lot.I decide to wait against Kol's car and look around.The moment I look at the side gate, I see Mr. Montgomery and Mr. Everhart walking out and straight towards my direction. They were yet to notice me.My heart started beating like crazy.Where is Kol? Gosh kill me now.Out of nowhere the lights of Kol's car turn on. I jump in my place and look around.I see Mr. Montgomery and Mr. Everhart stare right in my direction but then look away. Mr. Everhart tells something to Mr. Montgomery and Mr. Montgomery ends up looking back at me.I was beyond sha
ViaAfter our performance is done we get into 2 lines and get ready for the football team to run through.Me and Stephanie hold up a poster her and the cheer team designed.It said 'Black and Red, all in till the end. West Bridge who?' I love it.The announcer says a few things and then the football team runs to us.They run straight through our two lines. Kol and Justin run straight through the poster, splitting it into two."Let's get it!" Kol and Justin scream in union.Me and the cheer team ran back to the box between the goal line and the 20 yard line.Third Quarter; 21-13On top, where we belong.Fourth (Last) Quarter; 27-19"We Won!" Stephanie yells and the whole cheer goes crazy."Hell yeah we did." I yell. "Our team did that"The football team does their win hype routine and everyone erupts in cheers when they finish.Stephanie's boyfriend- Kyle runs to her. He spins her around and they kiss.We won our first home game. I could not be more proud of our football team. The foot
Alexander"It's pointless now, she's my son's girlfriend now." I look down at my drink.That shit stung like a motherfucker to say and I couldn't do anything about it."Don't look so bummed, maybe we can finally move on." Maximilian says then does a double take. "I mean you. You can finally move on.""You said we," I feel my grip on my glass cup tighten "elaborate." I hoped not to hear what I was mentally assuming he meant."It's nothing brother." He motions to the bartender for another drink."Don't brother me right now Maximilian." I feel my grip on my glass cup tighten. "Elaborate."He hesitates but looks at me and I know there was no way he was going to hide anything from me. "I started developing feelings for Via." He explains "It's wrong, you liked her fist, and besides." He shrugs "She's our student, she's off limits"She was off limits but I wanted her like a child wants candy on Halloween. I'm fucking pathetic."And my son's girlfriend" I down my drink as if I was downing the
Alexander"This is embarrassing" Her cheeks turn into a light pink shade. "But do you by any chance have some clothes you can lend me?""Uhhh, yes of course. Give me a second.'' I walk to my room and get a few pieces of clothing. I walk back to the room she's staying at and hand it to her. "I hope this is okay.""Yes this is great." She looks up at me. "Thank you and have a goodnight." She closes the door.I walk down to my kitchen and grab a glass of water."God Maximilian, why am I always looking out for you man?" I mumble to myself as I sit down on a stool in my kitchen counter, facing my outside backyard.I look at my pool and notice the calm water. "Why do I always put myself last?" I mumble to myself again as I down the rest of my water....Time goes by so incredibly slow and I feel like absolute shit.I hear footsteps walking down the stairs and turn in the direction of them. "Hello again." She slowly walks to me. "Sorry to bother you but can I please have some water?" She ask
Alexander"Good morning," Scarlet says as she walks into the kitchen."Morning" I look at her. "Would you like a cup of coffee and sweet bread?""Oooo yes, I'd love some." She sits on a seat and I stand up to make her- her cup of coffee."How was your night?" I try to make conversation."Pretty good, the bed was very comfortable.""You see, you couldn't have slept as good as you did- in a hotel" I laugh as I hand her the cup of coffee I made for her."True" She laughs. "Thank you once again." I hand her the plate filled with Mexican sweet bread. "For everything.""It's no problem at all, Maximilian would be happy to hear that I made sure his girlfriend was safe." I say as I sit back down on my seat. "On that note, have you spoken to him?" She nods."Yes actually, he said that he'd be here in a few minutes to pick me up." She takes a bite of her pink sweet bread. "These are really good""That's great" I take a sip of my coffee."And I'm glad you like the bread""It's great because you g
ViaWas she the one that texted him during our tutoring lesson? Was she the one that had phone sex with him?I felt a hint of jealousy run through my body but I try my best to hide it to not create problems.Mr. Thorne pushes her off of him "Get in the car Scarlet."That's not how a guy should treat his girlfriend. So who really is she to him?She looks at me. "But I-" I notice Mr. Montgomery move closer to me from the corner of my eye."Get in the car." He repeats himself.She stomps her foot like a child then gets in the car making sure to slam the door."Did she jus-" Mr. Thorne groans then looks at me. "Anyways, see you tomorrow Via. Same time as always."He gets into the car and tells something to scarlet. Scarlet looks at me then looks the other way. Once Mr. Thorne puts on his belt, he drives away."I'll go get Justin" Mr. Montgomery's voice makes me jump.I forgot he was standing a few feet from me."Oh right" I look at him. "Thank you."I walk to my house and Mr. Montgomery f
ViaI wonder what's going on in his mind. He looks so serious but I can't help but stare at his perfect silver eyes.He's the first one to look away from me. she looks down at his watch. "Anyways I'm sure you have to go home now. It's nine already.""Oh it is?" I wanted to keep looking into his perfect silver eyes. I feel weird sparks when I look into them."Yes, would you like me to walk you out?" He looks back at me.I didn't want him to look away again, his silver eyes ... but I had to go. "Yeah sure." I nod.He opens the backyard sliding doors again and leads me to the front door. "Have a great dayVia." He turns around then turns back to me. "And thank you for looking out for my son.""You're welcome." I nod. "Bye Mr. Montgomery."He looks at me again. "Bye Via." I had to look away this time, his eyes were piercing me down to my soul.I turn around and begin walking to my house. After some seconds pass, he shuts his door.God. If he didn't tell me to leave, I would've loved to st
