"She's dating Rick Riley."

"Shit." I muttered to myself.

"What?" The whole team exclaimed. "Charlie, you gotta be kidding us. There's no way. We all agreed to dislike him." Said Goldberg.

"I swear on my life. I saw them kissing, I saw his love letters for her on her desk, I saw them just look at each other, lustfully." Said Charlie.

Then everyone faced me. "Y/n, is this true?" Connie asked. I sighed and finally admitted.

"What's the point of lying anymore? Yeah, It's true." I said and everyone's expression went down.

"Why him, Y/n? Why our own enemy? There is so many other guys in the world!" Said Fulton. "No, you guys don't understand--" I said.

"What is there to understand, Y/n?" Said Guy. "You're dating the opponent."

"See? That's what I'm trying to say. You guys always saw him as the enemy..." I said. "Because, he is! What do you mean?" Said Julie.

"You guys, I--" "He bullied me, Y/n." Said Kenny.

"I know, but--" "No wonder you didn't want to get involved with our pranks." Said Luis.

"Can I just--" "He's gonna hurt you, Y/n. Really bad. You're gonna play against him." Said Russ.

"I'm sorry, but--" "You are crazy to even give him a chance." Said Dwayne.

"People!" I shouted, trying to stop them from talking over me.

"Why can't you just listen to me? I'm tryna give you an answer here!" I exclaimed.

"Look, I know he's the enemy. I ain't fuckin' stupid. I know he bullied us and pranked us, I know he has done many bad things to us but guess what? I ended up liking him."

"Obviously, not over those terrible things. We wanted to tell you guys and his guys because we thought it'd make peace between us." I said.

"Make peace? Why'd you wanna make peace with those guys? And specifically that guy?" Said Charlie.

"Because we knew we couldn't like each other after everything we've done to each other! God damnit, what do you want? For us to break up? What's that gonna do? It's just gonna make it worse!" I said.

No one spoke a word and we all stood on the ice, quiet.

"How could you do this, Y/n?" Said Connie as she leaves. "Con, wait--" I stammered.

"Traitor." Said Guy as he follows behind Connie. Next thing I knew, everyone had left and I was the only one on the ice.

I wanted to cry so bad but I held it in and sat down at the bleachers, waiting for the others to leave the locker room so I can be alone in there.

The next day it was lunch. I hadn't seen any of the team. Once I entered the lunchroom I saw them and they all looked away from me once I saw them.

My heart broke and I look across their table and saw Rick looking at me, worried.

I sighed and walked to his table.

"Y/n, what's wrong? What'd they do?" He asked, softly. "They found out." I said and he froze. "What? How?"

"Charlie. He suspected at first but then he saw us kiss." I said. "Shit." He cussed under his breath.

"Just sit with me. I'm sure they'll be good to you again." He said. "But, what about your team?" I ask. "It's alright. I've told them besides Banksie over there. You wanna tell him?"

"I guess I'll tell him." I said. "Alright. You can go sit with him over there." Said Rick, giving me a small smile, making me feel slightly better.

I sat next to Adam and he looked at me, confused.

"Why are you here, Y/n?" He questions. "The rest of the team hates me now." I said. "Why? What'd you do?"

"I'm dating your captain." I said and his jaw dropped. "Really? Cool." He said.

"You're not mad." I said. "No, I'm not. Why would I be?" "I'm dating your teams captain. The man my team despises the most." I said.

"Oh, I know. Who cares? As long as he treats you well, I'm cool with it. You can't exactly control who you like." He said and continued to munch on his food.

"And to me, he looks very happy and probably feels lucky to have you."

I then look over at Rick and he looks back at me, giving me a sweet smile. Then I looked at the team, the gave me dirty glances and kept whispering to each other like I had a scandal.

"But the team hates me now. The team is my whole life." I said. Adam scoffed and said.

"Welcome to my life." He jokes.
