All Chapters of The Perfect Touchdown: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

“Well, with Leah here, the teams are uneven now,” Carter said, but Noah shook his head after counting everyone.“If we split into groups of 5, the teams will be even again.”We then split into two groups of 5 and I had no say over who went where. Noah seemed adamant about keeping me on his team, which meant Ryan joined their group with Leah and Carter, and I got the twins, Isabelle and Noah.“Oh yay, we’re on the same team,” Leah said and threw herself at Aiden.He smiled down at her and it tore at my heart. I don’t know what compelled me to speak after that. “I hope you can keep up.” I had meant for it to come off as a joke, but my tone was too serious.Aiden frowned but thankfully Leah brushed it off like it was nothing and turned her attention back to Aiden. We reset our boards and started our games, but I couldn’t help noticing how much of a distraction and poor player Leah was.I could tell it was taking everything in my brother not to freak out or scold her every time she rolled

Over the next week after that fateful night, Aiden and I did our best to keep our relationship a secret, but in the early stages of a relationship, it was impossible to stay away from each other. When we weren’t hanging out at the frat house or secretly hooking up in my dorm room, we were texting each other constantly. We had even gone as far as to share a few photos when one couldn’t handle not seeing the other. This was something I had never done before but the thrill of it was exciting, and I trusted Aiden enough to feel comfortable with the idea. Besides, having hot as fuck photos like that to look back on was mouthwatering and a great mood booster. That didn’t take away the anxiety of knowing someone could get a hold of them, or I could accidentally send one to my brother instead of Aiden, the terrible possibilities are endless. But the responses I got in return were more than worth it. Never had I felt more attractive and wanted before, and it wasn’t just physical. Aiden had a

After the talk with my brother, I returned to Aiden’s room. “So, my brother found out about Jake and the party,” I said and tossed myself on the bed. His eyes went wide. “I swear to God, I didn’t say a word.” “No, I know. But you’ll be happy to know he has been suspended for the rest of the semester, you won’t have to worry about him on the field for now, at least.” He grinned. “That also means I don’t have to worry about him ever coming near you again.” He crawled on top of me and pinned my wrists to the bed above my head. “I’ve been waiting all night to do this.” The kiss started slow but quickly heated up when he slipped his tongue into my mouth, and it became a battle of the spit. His hands slid under my shirt and teased the hem of my bra before it was ripped over my head, my pants followed not long after. His expert hands explored every inch of my body and lit every particle of skin ablaze until I was a sweaty hot mess against the sheets. I was panting like a dog and writhi

I shrugged. “If you say so. I’ll see you there.” I closed my locker with my clothes and walked out the door, not bothering to change anymore and left with my cheer uniform still on. As soon as I was out of distance from the changing rooms, I called Aiden and breathed a sigh of relief when he picked up right away. “Hey, are you almost ready?” he asked. “So, you are still picking me up?” I could almost hear his confusion. “Of course, why wouldn’t I be?” “I’ll tell you later, I’m heading back to the dorms now, I’ll text you when I’m ready.” I groaned after I got off the phone. Why did this girl have to cause so much drama over one guy? I had gone to my own extents in the past to get Aiden to notice me, but I would never blatantly lie about being with someone who barely gave me the time of day. That was asking for that relationship to fail before it even began, but she was going to find out the hard way when I showed up with Aiden at the party. At the same time, I was getting a ba

I knew it was futile to chase after him, and I was too numb to do that anyway. I stayed in the boys' changing room for what felt like hours and sobbed to myself until Isabelle eventually found me. She said the twins never saw me come back out of the locker room before they went back to their dorm. She managed to get me out of the room and back to our own dorms, but I was completely numb and was in disbelief for hours after. Everything happened so fast, I had no idea what to do. One side of me wanted to run to him and demand a real answer as to what was going on, while the other side of me was too shocked to do anything at all. “Rylee, what happened? You gotta talk to me, babe.” Isabelle tried her best to get me to talk but I just didn’t feel like speaking about it yet. If I spoke about it out loud, it would make it all the more real. She sighed in frustration. “I’m calling Aiden.” This snapped me out of it. “No, don’t!” “I knew it, it has something to do with him. What is it? Spi
