This is a long one so buckle up :)

No one POV
"We are missing one..."
"Andy...he's running late"
"I told everyone to come early"
Kate pinched the bridge of her nose in desperation.
"I'm gonna strangle him as soon as he arrives" she added.
She was way too nervous and anxious to deal with Andy running late.
Eventually, the blonde boy showed up.
He was out of breath and his shirt done wrong but he was there.
"For god's sake, Andy. You're late and look like you just met a tornado"
Kate wasn't mean, she was always like that before a debate.
"Mate...why the fuck are you so late...she was gonna kill me" Tim whispered while fixing Andy's shirt.
"I was checking the speech one more time" Andy explained and Tim nodded looking at his shirt that now looked perfect.

Andy joined the debate team when he was a freshman, he knew it was something for him since day one.
Probably it was the adrenaline of the competition, the feeling of beating someone with just the art of speech or the idea of convincing others about your point that made Andy feel good, invincible.
So he joined the team and even tho Kate sometimes plans his homocide, it was the best decision he ever made.
They didn't believe they were the best team in the world but their tactic never failed and the team was solid so Andy was confident.

The debate was about some weird and complicated topic that involved the LGBT community so Andy was truly excited, he loved whenever he got the chance to talk about something that involved him personally.
So he played with his lucky bracelet to calm down his nerves then went to give his speech.
Words were flowing freely from his mouth, a flux that no one was able to stop.
Till someone dared to ask a question...
"I have a question...what proof do you have regarding gay adoption because we have plenty that state: having gay parents can affect the child...not in a positive way"
Andy just stared at the boy, Rye Beaumont, his name on the table said.
He froze and that never happened in his life, he never struggled...never.
"Andy..." Kate whispered to him.
"Mmm...yes, I apologize..."
Andy tried to regain the line of his speech and continued.

"What happened?" Kate asked in disbelief but Andy ignored her, just picked up all his papers and water bottle.
"I mean I'm just shocked...that never happened and you're always prepared for any question..."
Andy still said nothing, he just wanted to exit the room.
"Hey...nice debate, you guys did well"
Andy turned around, his water bottle and papers held close to his chest.
Rye went to shake hands but Andy stayed still.
"Is this a joke or...?" The boy finally said something.
"No...just wanted to congratulate. You know, sportsmanship..."
Rye tried to sound truthful but Andy knew he was just fucking with him.
"I see that you can't take a defeat...well it was nice debating with you, maybe next time it'll go better" Rye patted his shoulder then left, his letterman jacket over one of his shoulders.
Andy wanted to punch something, maybe Rye Beaumont's face.

"He's an asshole" the boy said through the phone furiously.
"I think he's right. You can't take defeat" Kate said on the other line.
"It's not true"
"Mate, it can happen. Don't stress so much" Tim said this time.
"I'm not stressing, it just makes me mad. Who does he think he is?"
Andy was laying on the bed, exasperated.
"Apparently he's the national champion-"
"What?"
"Yeah...that's what Instagram says" Tim explained.
Andy wasted no time stalking him.
His profile was full of pictures and he had a lot of followers actually but his last post caught Andy's eye.
'Take the defeat next time'
"Oh hell no...he did not!"
Andy wanted to throw his phone against the wall.
"Andy calm down...I mean everyone loses at one point"
Kate thought he was overreacting.
"It's not about losing, it's about him being an asshole and rubbing it in my nose"
Andy wasn't the calmest person on earth but 99% of the time he managed to stay calm, Rye was that 1% that made him want to murder people.
"Ignore him" Tim ended but Andy wasn't sure he was able to.
