Chapter 31

I turn and look at her and I will be honest with her as she deserves to know the truth. “We have broken up yes, she invited herself over claiming she wanted to talk, and we did. We walked past you so we could go out back and talk in private. I know she said things to you in school Lucas told me as he was close by, he overheard everything and I told her if she comes near you again, I can ruin her like she has threatened to ruin me. I also told her she is not welcome around my house anymore as I heard what she said to you then too and I am sorry she spoke to you like that she had no right to say anything, and you know what my dad said to you. You are welcome around my home any time you like as my mom is looking forward to start playing music again and that’s thanks to you.” Another tear rolls down her cheek and I wipe it off her face as it’s killing me seeing her cry. “Well thank you for clarifying that, Chase. But I still don’t understand why you acted the way you did as that hurt m

Chapter 32

It’s Friday. Game day. A day I have been waiting for all week. Ever since Monday night I have kept my head down and worked my ass off with schoolwork, football, and rebuilding a friendship with Savannah. After I walked Savannah home Monday night, she got me thinking about my future too. I never went and caught up with my friends I got home and went and spoke to my dad about college, and we discussed everything in the finance major as this is what I want to do I want to keep my family’s legacy alive. I sat at my desk for the rest of the night, and I applied to the same university my parents went to and fell in love. I have applied to Berkeley University. I have gotten a recommendation letter from HR at the office with the hours I have put in there and I will be speaking to my football coach and my math teacher about letters too to go with my application. I have kept my distance from all the girls in school but stayed close enough to Jen and her little circle of friends as I noticed

Once we get far enough away from what just happened, I am standing outside the locker room. I turn Savannah around to look at me as I hold onto her shoulders. “Savannah I am so sorry you witnessed that and I’m sorry for how he spoke to you. You deserve so much more than what he said, and I promise you right now he will never come anywhere near you if it’s the last thing I do.” “Chase whatever happened back there was not your fault. He provoked you and you done what any guy would do. You defended me and I want to say thank you for that.” She holds onto my forearms to comfort me and calm me down. “I will be in the stands with your folks and Jen and if you wanna talk after the game about what happened then I’m here to listen.” For the second time in so many minutes, Savannah kisses my cheek and walks to find my family. I head on into the locker room, to my locker, and start gearing up for the game. Just as I finished lacing up my boots coach comes charging into the locker room to give

Chapter 34

Savannah P.O.V Sitting up in the stands With Jen and her parents on one side, my dad on the other side, and Selena behind me. Dad was invited to come by Mr. Lockwood to come and watch as Dad used to play football in high school and college so this must feel like he’s a young man again. Selena leans forward and whispers to both Jen and me. “What the hell happened earlier? It’s all I have been hearing about since I arrived.” Selena asks as she leans forward to talk to me from behind. “Yeah, I wanna know the same thing.” Jen turns and looks at me, “I heard there’s college scouts here to see some of the guys play but surely it’s not that.” Oh, shit if the scouts are here for Chase if they know about him laying out Vance, he’s never going to get a scholarship and I will feel responsible. So, I tell the girls the short version of what happened. “Vance was saying he’s going to take me away from Chase just like he did with Candace. I had to stop Chase from hitting Vance then, but Vance

Chapter 35

The third quarter was interesting Lucas scored a touchdown from the forty-meter yard line. That is impressive for a young man like himself and what I have been told by Selena who goes doe eyes every time his name is mentioned. I think she may have feelings for him I need to know their story. But anyway, with what Selena was telling me he’s a fellow country student. From Victoria, Texas. I thought I could hear a Texan accent from him when I heard his voice at the ice cream parlor. But anyway, back to the game. Lucas scored a touchdown that took our lead up even more, but Venice High were fighting back hard. This game feels like it’s going to be a bloodbath. I wasn’t wrong with saying it’s going to be a close game as in the middle of the third quarter Venice High hits back with two touchdowns of their own, when the ball was clearly stolen from us. I think I’m not going to have a voice after the end of the game with all this shouting and cheering I have been doing. The start of the fo

Chapter 36

Chase P.O.V When we got home Jen and I spoke to our parents about what that prick did during the last moment of the game and what the physicians said. I am only winded and will be fairly bruised no signs of concussions or whiplash so I will live to tell the tale. Our parents decided to call it a night, so Jen and I are sitting on the couch in the family room. “So, care to spill the tea with what’s going on between you and Savannah? I swear you guys run hot and cold more than the faucets.” “I couldn’t agree with you more sis but there’s nothing really to tell.” “I call bullshit.” “Jen I’m serious there’s nothing to tell you. We are just wanting to get to know each other. I am trying my fucking best to not fuck up with her again. I am slowly gaining her trust back and right now that’s what’s important to me.” “Well since I know she starts her first day at her new job tomorrow, I may be able to help you get that little bit closer to gaining her trust back.” “What are you tal

Chapter 37

Walking into the kitchen I see Dad sitting in his usual seat on a Saturday morning reading his newspaper. He hears me open the fridge to grab a drink of orange juice, he puts his newspaper down. “Good morning son how are you feeling after that tackle last night?” “I’m feeling a little sore, but I can manage the pain it’s not stopping me from my morning run today.” “That’s what I like to hear you played outstanding last night Chase your mom and I are so proud of you.” “Thanks, Dad that means a lot to me.” I take a sip of my drink and I grab a banana and take a seat at the table opposite Dad. Now is the best time to ask him with Jen and Mom not around. “Hey, Dad I want to surprise Savannah at work today by sending a good luck gift and I was thinking Calla Lilies delivered to her workplace and after her shift take over an Orchid to congratulate her on her first day.” “That sounds very nice of you son, yeah so how can I help?” “What is the number for the florist you use to bu

Chapter 38

Savannah P.O.V My first shift at work is going smoothly. I’m impressing Jen throughout my training today with my waitressing skills. We had a brief discussion about my previous experience at the diner in North Carolina, and Jen showed me how the till worked and told me the table number layout, I was serving tables like I have worked here my entire life. It was coming close to my lunch break and just before I clocked out for lunch Lucas came in with Chase not far behind him. Whilst I am standing at the service bar Lucas speaks to the host, and she points out Selena to him. Jen comes and stands next to me and links her arm through mine as we watch on in admiration of what is going on. Lucas approaches Selena slowly and he looks behind him to look at Chase. Chase nods at him and Lucas nods back. I don’t know what that was about, but it must have been something encouraging. “Selena?” Lucas looks like he’s about to throw up, as Selena turns around and looks at him. “Lucas! Hi.” Lucas

Chapter 39

Wow. Chase has sent me the most beautiful arrangement of Calla Lilies I have ever seen. All just to wish me luck on my first day at work. Wow. That is my romantic moment without him even being here to see my reaction or even trying to impress me. Walking into the back with the flowers Jen whistles at them and then looks at me. “Wow, they are beautiful do you know who sent them?” I look at Jen with a huge smile on my face. “Chase sent them.” Jen gasps. “What! No way would Chase have sent them. They are too gorgeous to be sent by my brother.” I give Jen the card so she can read it herself and her jaw drops. “Damn, I have to give him more credit these are beautiful.” I couldn’t agree more with her if only I had his number, I could text him to say thank you. The rest of my shift flew by. I never thought my first day would be this much fun and so eventful. Lucas coming in and asking Selena out on a date. From what she told me is going to be tonight and she wants me and Jen to go aro

Chapter 40

I put my drink down on the floor next to me as I turn around to look at Chase. “So, before you tell me about the meanings behind the flowers you have bought me could you answer a couple of things for me first?” Chase copies what I just did by putting his drink down after taking a sip and turning towards me. “Hit me I’m an open book.” “Why did you send the bouquet of Calla Lilies? I know you said on the card it was to wish me luck on my first day at my new job and that is really sweet but what is the motive behind you sending them?” “I did it for a couple of reasons Savannah. I sent them because I thought you deserved something to put a smile on your face and I assume they did.” I nod at him in agreement that yes, they did make me smile. “And because I care about you so much, I wanted to show you that I care and that I listen to what you have said.” “I can tell that you do, and I appreciate it very much I can’t stop thanking you. You are the only guy who has ever surprised me wi
