Avani's POV
~flashback~
I was so excited for today. It was the first football match since the beginning of summer and this time Jayus was the captain
I picked up his jersey from the floor that he gave me and pulled it over my head, pairing it with dark blue shorts to match. At last I wore my hair up in a tight pony tail and applied a bit of lip balm.
I took my bag and called Riya. A classmate of mine whom I usually hung out with. "Hey, you ready?" I asked her excitedly. "Almost. Just give me 5 minutes. I'll be there to pick you up." She said, matching my level of excitement and hung up.
Football was taken real seriously at our school. I couldn't wait for Jayus to kick the opposite teams ass today.
I pulled my knee length socks up and wore my shoes in a hurry before leaving.
I waited outside for about 5 minutes before I saw Riya's mercedes take a turn towards my street. She stopped right in front of me and I opened the door. I got in excitedly and put the seatbelt on.
"What took you so long?" I asked her. "Oh nothing I couldn't decide what to wear you know since some of us don't have boyfriends to give us their jerseys." She said playfully before starting the car. I rolled my eyes while smiling just thinking about him.
"Let's roll bitches." She said as we parked the car and got out. I rolled my eyes at her excitement and got out right after her. Both of us made our way towards the school stadium once we entered the school.
"Hey, you go ahead I'll catch up." I said while making my way towards the locker room to see Jayus before the match.
I hopped on my way to the locker room excited to see my boyfriend play as the captain for the first time. He has been waiting a long time for an opportunity like this one. I couldn't stop smiling as I hopped and hopped and hopped.
I stopped at a distance from the locker room and my smile faltered because of the scene in front of me. There she was, Sarah fucking Johnson standing in front of my boyfriend.
They seemed to be in an intense conversation from what I could tell. Jayus yelled a few words at her but I couldn't decipher what he was trying to say.
There was a lot of hand throwing gestures and crying from her side. It looked as if they were fighting about something.
Ofcourse they're fighting, dummy she probably did something to anger him. I thought feeling dumb for even thinking of a possibility about something else going on there.
Just as I was about to interrupt their arguement, Sarah broke down into an ugly sob. I saw Jayus shaking his head as if he was disappointed with himself and pulled her into his arms. He held her for a some time while whispering something into her ear.
Am I imagining things or was that hug a bit too intimate? I was now having mixed feelings about this scene in front of me.
I'm sure my Jayus has reasons for this. I wanted to defend him so badly but yet, at the same time there was this other voice in my head telling me to look at all the red flags but ofcourse me being me, I ignored them.
I heard the coach whistle, letting the players know the game is starting. Jayus and Sarah pulled away before he cupped her cheeks saying something and disappeared towards the locker room.
He didn't even look for me like he did at every other game in the past. I ignored the feeling of hurt that I felt right now.
Sarah turned around and instantly met my eyes. She was wiping her tears and at the same time her entire demeanor changed completely. While she was acting like a sad bitch in front of Jay, here she was smirking at me.
Before I could confront her, one of her minions came back to look for her since she's the cheerleading captain and the game was about to start.
She looked at me again scanning her eyes over my outfit before chuckling and heading back with her 'friend'.
I convinced myself that this was nothing. Just a misunderstanding.
I made my way to where Riya was sitting and decided not to tell her anything because even though she was my friend she was still friends with Sarah.
The game started soon enough. Both the teams shook hands before getting into their positions.
There was a lot of cheering around us from supporters of both the teams. Everytime one of the teams scored a goal, the entire stadium roared with happiness and cheers from the supporters.
At last, the game got really intense. Everyone looked in anticipation, anxious about if Jayus would be able to score the last goal and make the win or not.
He dodged his way around the opposite team and eventually, he scored. The crowd around us erupted. They started chanting his name while I clapped smiling hard, feeling proud of my boy.
What surprised me though was after his team gave him a pat on the back, he looked over to Sarah's direction and winked at her. HE FUCKING WINKED AT HER.
Not just that, no no no. She made her way towards him and practically threw herself at him and he DIDN'T RESIST. The crowd was still cheering while he looked at everyone and waved with Sarah still in his arms. They looked like a couple when I should have been there. What the actual fuck was happening?!
From the corner of my eye I saw Riya giving me a sympathetic look. She didn't say anything though.
He eventually met my eye and his smiled dropped before literally threw Sarah on the field. He looked like he was panicking before he jogged towards the locker room.
I made my way, no RAN my way towards where he was going. I stood outside tapping my foot against the floor waiting for him to come out.
He eventually did and I looked at him. He smiled at me and jogged towards me. He hugged me and pecked me on my lips. I pulled away before he could go any further. "What in the world did I and 500 other people just witness out there?" I asked glaring at him.
"My win, baby." He said winking. Oh so now he thinks he's smooth.
I rolled my eyes. "Don't give me shit right now, Jayus. Tell me what the fuck was that." I said seriously.
"Oh baby you know how Sarah is. I kept telling her no but she just wouldn't listen and I was high from the rush of winning so I didn't realise what I did until it was too late." He said looking at me sincerely.
I looked at him suspiciously before giving in. I sighed. Maybe he's right. He wouldn't do that to me. His explanation totally makes sense. "Whatever don't do that again or I won't let it pass ok." I said hugging him.
"Ofcourse baby." He said and hugged me back before pulling away and giving me a kiss. Scratch that. It was a full blown makeout session.
I pulled away feeling breathless before looking at his swollen lips feeling proud of what he did today. Mine. I thought and smiled.
"By the way my jersey looks hot on you." He said smirking at me while putting his hand over my shoulders with his bag in the other hand.
"Thanks for noticing so soon." I said playfully shoving him as we made our way towards the exit.
