Locker Room Judgement

Chapter 11

First Game Of the Season: 

"It's showtime boys! You worked really hard for this and I know you'll do great!" I take the coaches encouraging words to heart and I feel ready to win.

The game ended and we won! This is so great and are whole team is celebrating. This is a big moment for our schools football team. But apparently Ryan & Jazz are fighting again. I choose not to not let that bother me. Rachelle came up to me and gave me a big hug.

"Congrats Mikey, I'm so proud of you guys." She claps her hands and squeals. I try to shy away hiding a smile. "Thanks. This is just the first game of the season, we have 16 more games to try and win."

"Wow, that's a lot. I'm sure your team will fly by this season." I can't help but laugh. Her talking about football is so adorable, she doesn't understand most of it and it's so silly to hear her babble on about it. But I know she's trying to show her support.

Some of my teammates started to huddle around us Jax put his arm around me while Paul fist bumped me. 

Alex walked up with his duffle bag. He took one look at Rachelle in disgust. "Hey Ray, who could ever forget you. Remember when you broke my nose last summer?"

She looked at him with her fiery eyes and I don't ever think I've seen Rachelle that mad before. She's always so bubbly and happy.

"Don't call me that and I wouldn't mind breaking it again for you." He put his hands up like he's surrendering. "Oooh! I really afraid now." He rolls his eyes at her.

"Don't push it, I'd choose your words very carefully. I'll see you later Michael." She gives me a weak grin and walks away. "Ok, that bitch is psycho!" Alex scoffs. 

I glare at him and grab him by the shirt. "If you ever approach her in such a disrespectful manner again. I will be the one to break your nose and you won't recover as easily." He looks at me in fear and nods his head quickly. I'm satisfied with how this went down so I let go. He left and my friends are looking stunned that I even said something. 

Wow, did I really just do that? I sorta just mirrored Luke's behavior from earlier. I can't believe that worked. 

Chapter 12:

It started to get late so I decide it was time to go home. I assume Ryan already left with Jazz so I just went home.

It was quiet in the house as usually so I grabbed my night clothes and headed to the bathroom for a shower. I went to put my stuff on the sink and I noticed 3 pregnancy tests sitting on the side. They all say positive. What? "Jasmine! What's with the pregnancy tests!? Are these all yours!?" 

I heard her door quickly open. "Um, yeah." She awkwardly played with her hair. "A-Are these with Ryan!?" She bit her lip and showed that Ryan was beside her near the wall. He looked defeated and didn't look my way. "Why the hell would you knock up my sister, Ryan!" I pushed him into the hallway and he fell backwards, hit the wall.

He didn't even try to fight. "I hate you Ryan, I hate both of you!" He looked up with watery eyes and I was so mad. "Both of you get out of here, I don't want to see either of you!" They both scramble to leave and I get Ryan's attention one more time. "Reginald!" He looked at me, he was shaking. "I'm done we're not friends anymore."

That's when he ran out of the house and I slammed the the front door locking it. I picked up the stupid tests with a tissue and threw them in her room so hard, it broke her glass lamp.

By the next morning, I was packed and ready to go. I finally made my decision, I will join the army and they won't see me for a long time.

My dad came home and I was already waiting in the common room for him. "Father?" He looks at me intently. "Yes Michael?"

"I made my decision, I want to go to go to boot camp and join the Army in honor of our family." I'm lying through my teeth but I learned how to pretend to get what I want and I got my wish. For once I saw my father sorta smile and he was pleased with me.

He told the school I will be staying home today and I was excused. He made many phone calls  and he spent many hours mentoring me on how bootcamp and the Army operates. My father was able to schedule me to meet the commander right away and I was instantly accepted. The marshall said I was an exceptional candidate for the Army and would like to train me right away since I'm almost 18.

I was told to quit football and just focus on my school work for the last 6 months until graduation, so that's what I did. Jassmine came home a day later and we all had a "family" meeting. Are parents were pleased with my career path and I was told I will bring great honor to the Fuka ancestry. Jazz got in big trouble now and was labeled impure due to her lusts and having a child out of wedlock. Completely being shunned by the family, she was forced to move out. Ha! Fuck you Jazz you deserve it.

I cut off contact with everyone and got a new phone number. I'm not friends with my football buddies anymore and I made sure Ryan had no way of contacting me. I did something vile but I did what I had to do to protect myself. So I closed off walls and I don't trust anyone anymore.  I told my dad Ryan is a distraction and he seems dangerous. So my father filed a restraining order against him and I haven't seen him since. If he gets closer than a 100 feet from me, he will be arrested.

I called up Roxy and we have been dating for three months now and i'm very much happy with her. I graduate in 2 months & 3 days. I can't wait to start boot camp so I can forget about him, I hoping I fucking die out there.
