"Promise!"
Is he joking? He's joking right?
"Hold up!" I yell, half running over to Tyson and Ivan. They're complete assholes. I can't stand either of them. Most people can't. They're what you call classic bullies but these two go to the extreme with their hatred toward people who they don't deem as worthy of them.
Reaching them I eye them both down.
I hear Knox walking up behind me."Are you talking about Promise Lee?" It's rhetorical of course, I know they are. There's not many girls with the name of Promise around. But I'm trying to be an ass about it. I want to make damn sure they learn that Promise will not be doing a damn thing with either of these bozos! Not if I can help it!
"Yes, like it's any of your damn business gay boy!" Shit! This asshole is so damn homophobic. Sometimes I think he acts this way to just hide the fact that he may secretly be gay himself or at least bi. He's a damn idiot!
"Listen to me Tyson, there's no way in hell I'm letting you get your damn grubby paws anywhere near Promise!" Tyson hits Ivan on his chest, roaring out with laughter. Knox scoffs out behind me.
"You..you think you can threaten me?" He stops laughing, his face gets a stern on look on it "don't ever threaten me gay boy," Tyson gets up in my face, so close, I can smell his foul ass breath "I will end you Jaye! If I want to fuck Promise, I damn sure will and there's nothing your fairy ass can do about it!" We start to draw attention from the other students milling about. Waiting to see a fight I'm sure. If this jackass keeps it up, I'll give them exactly what they want.
"You think so Tyson Turkey!? Why don't you quit talking shit and back it the fuck up?" He starts to push me like the pussy he is but before he is able to do so Riley walks right in between me and Tyson. Pushing us away from each other.
"Come on guys. If Coach sees you, you will both be off the team and we don't want that, do we?" Riley is always trying the play peacemaker. He's one of our teammates, he can be ass though sometimes.
"Riley?" Hearing a soft voice calling out Riley's name we all turn to look over at beautiful red head. I'm assuming that it's Riley's mate. She has worry all over her face. Glancing behind her we all see Promise walk up behind her with some guy beside her. He has his arm over her shoulder, he's way to damn close to my damn mate for my liking. I look to Knox, he's fuming. Guess he isn't so against the idea of a mate after all.
"It's ok Kayleen, just a misunderstanding." Riley walks over to her, wrapping her up in an embrace. That's what I want. That's what I long for. Someone that could care for me like that. Look at me like that. I glance over to Promise, she's watching the exchange with Riley and his mate. Does she not know that we're her mates? Can she not sense it like we can?
"Promise, let's get out of here." The damn guy with his shoulder over my mate suggests to her. I don't damn well think so!
"Hold up!" I blurt out without thinking. Well hell! What do I say now? They both look at me, eyeing me suspiciously. Damn! Well I got their attention might as well go for it.
