Micah

"Keep going Chan!" Coach shouts from the side lines while I try to stop and catch my breath as my team and I do some conditioning on the football field after we had small practice on the basketball court.

After two hours of hard workouts, coach lets us go and the guys are all groaning in the locker room as we change .

"That man wants to see us collapse to know that we've worked hard enough." Trevor groans as he dries his hair.

"We have a game in three weeks so I guess that's why we're being worked hard." I reply as I run my hand through my curls to try and make them organized.

"Yeah you're right. Anyway, we'll meet home, I need to go see Charity." Trevor says as he grabs his bag and we leave the locker room.

"How are things between you two?" I ask him not really interested but knowing that he will tell me if I ask him or not.

"She's still not talking to me so I need to go over to her dorm room."

"Okay, I'll see you later, good luck." I tell him and he nods his head then walks to his car and I open the trunk to my Jeep and slip the bag in and then drive off to my apartment that is off campus.

Trevor and I got basketball scholarships to Louisiana State University and we're now seniors. I know my parents would have been okay and able to pay for my tuition but I wanted them to see that I can work harder for a scholarship. Trevor is the biggest man whore I've known and I respect what he does with his life since he chooses to do so and I don't judge but of recent, he met Kayla, Eileen's roommate and he swears he only wants to get into her pants but I can see that he is lying.

I make my way to the apartment and change into my shorts and a beater then drive to pick up dinner for me and Eileen then drive back to campus,to her dorm.

"Hi Micah." A high pitched voice belonging to Martha makes me groan internally as she walks towards the elevator where I'm standing.

"Hi Martha." I reply not to be rude.

When I broke things off with her in high school, I thought I'd never see her again but coincidentally, she attends the same university as Eileen and I.She has made advances towards me on many occasions but I've flatly told her I'm not interested in her anymore since my heart belongs to someone else.

"I'm free tonight, want to come over to my apartment?" She asks as she touches my arm but I step away from her. I won't deny that she isn't beautiful because she is.

"Sorry, Martha, I'm spending the night with Eileen, who I've told you many times that is my girlfriend." I tell her and she huffs then rolls her eyes. "See you around Martha." I walk around her and get into into the elevator that finally comes down and head up to Eileen's room where I knock on the door and she opens after ten seconds and I notice that she's dressed in one of my shirt that reaches her hips and her big Afro hair is tied up in a scarf. She looks beautiful.

"You're going to come in or keep staring at me?" She smirks as she steps away from the door letting me in. I take my shoes off and walk to her small kitchen counter and sit the bag of food on it.

"Hey beautiful." I walk to her and wrap my arms around her waist and kiss her lips.

"Hey, how was practice?" She says while touching the small beard on my chin and jaw.

"Hectic." I reply and I sit on her bed and take off my beater while rolling my shoulders.. Her room is small and I wonder how she manages such small space with her roommate but what she will never know is that I made sure she got this room , which is somehow bigger than the others with the help of dad Ofcourse .
"How was your day?" I ask her as she dishes out our food and sits it on the mini table with two seats.

"I got eighty in my Literature test." She replies while smiling and I walk to where she is kissing her cheek.

"That's great Eileen, you're brilliant." I praise her and she grins.

We begin to eat as we both talk about how the day went. When I asked Eileen out , to be my girl, I thought she'd reject me given the fact that we were best friends but she didn't and that was the best day of my life.

"Your mom called saying you no longer call her and that you forgot about her." She tells me as we both clean our plates. My mother is my sweetheart but she is the most dramatic woman I've ever met.

"I called her on Monday." I roll my eyes knowing my mom can be dramatic almost all the time.

"It's Friday, that's a whole week away." Eileen says as she plops down on her bed and I follow her.

"Fine, I'll call her." I reply and call my mother.

"Baby!" My mother squeals through the phone making me chuckle.

"Hey mama."

"You go to college and forget about your mother? Micah how could you." She says and I can tell she's about to cry.

"I've just been busy with practice ma, I can never forget about you."

"I understand baby, how is it going, the practice?" She asks concerned.

"It's pretty hectic but I'll manage, we have the championships coming up so I have to up my game."

"Okay baby, is Eileen with you? I want to talk to her."

"But you talked to her earlier today?" I ask her and roll my eyes as I watch Eileen put her tongue out at me after hearing my mother.

"I want to talk to her again, she's my daughter after all." She says and I groan while passing my phone over to Eileen who gets up from the bed and walks to the balcony of her room.

Scrolling through the television, I stop at a game recap they're having on ESPN and try to study a random team's defense. It's Friday and Eileen and I have been invited to a party, well, I've been invited and I have to drag my girl out of her room since she hates going to parties.

"Here." She walks back in and hands me my phone back and joins me on the bed.

"Be good baby okay?" Mom says with concern laced in her voice.

"I will mama."

"Stay out of trouble and control your temper Micah, I'm serious." She tells me and I run my hand through my hair.

"Okay , I promise I will."

"I love you baby." She says and I hear Kaia call her loudly.

"Love you too mama, say hey to dad."

"You have his phone number, use it ." She says sternly and hangs up making me chuckle.

"We're going out tonight." I tell Eileen and she looks up from her phone to look at me with a frown on her face.

"No:" she simply replies and looks back to her phone which I pull away and throw on the other side of the bed and get ontop of her. I push her legs apart and lay in between them and kiss all over her face.

"Please, go out with me, you know I can't function without you." I tell her and she wraps her arms around my neck and pulls me into a warm kiss that has me getting hard.

"Or, we can stay in and you can get all this body tonight, I'll give you head too." She says as she slips a hand down to my shorts and she lightly strokes me through the shorts and I pull away knowing I won't be able to resist.

"I need to be there, I was invited." I tell her as I kneel in between her legs.

"You can go alone, I'll stay here and wait for you to come back."

"No, I want you there with me, please Eileen, I need you there." I tell her and she rolls her eyes.

"Fine but if I get tired, I'm leaving immediately, I think Amy will be there too." She says referring to her best friend.

"Deal." I kiss her lips and get up from the bed. She gets ready and we drive to my apartment and I change into some simple clothes and we leave for the party.
