BET

Chapter Eleven

Kasia

The next morning when I wake up, Henry takes me down to the kitchen to get breakfast, pouring me a bowl of cereal and then returning to the kitchen to grab himself one of his own as I sit at their table to eat.

I have barely got the first spoonful in my mouth when I hear someone walking down the stairs. Keagan walks into the room and stops in his tracks when he sees me, squinting his eyes. His stare moves to Henry when he walks in with his bowl of cereal.

"You really slept with her?" Keagan asks, gesturing to me.

"Dude," Henry says, his eyes wide.

"Are you kidding me?" he asks.

"Now really isn't the time." Henry insists.

"No, I think it is the time."

"Why are you acting shocked, Keagan?" I ask and his eyes move back from Henry to me. "Your predictions came true from what I hear."

"What are you talking about?" he asks.

"You thought I would get with Henry next. What did you call me again? Homie hopper?" I smile, taking a spoonful of cereal.

Keagan groans, rolling his eyes. "It was a joke!" he yells.

Simon walks into the room now, his eyes squinting like he is still asleep. "Give it a rest, Keagan." he says as he passes him.

"I was making a joke, I didn't think she was actually trying to run through our entire team." Keagan continues, throwing his arms up in the air.

I drop the spoon in the bowl and roll my eyes. "I slept with three of you, it's hardly the entire team."

"Give it a few more days and I'm sure you'll be through the entire offensive line." Keagan says.

I set my jaw. "Seriously? You're really making me regret that I was ever with you."

He nods his head. "Yeah, I'm starting to regret that I was with you too now that you're being passed around to all my friends."

I scoff, glancing over at Henry sitting next to me and then at Simon who leans against the doorframe and listens. They both remain silent, their eyes darting around the room. I shake my head, leaning back in the chair.

"Listen, if you want to make yourself feel all big and powerful saying that you passed me around, that's fine. But the truth is, I used all of you. Not the other way around."

"Oh please-" Keagan starts, but I don't let him finish, laughing and throwing my hands up in the air.

"I mean I'm the one that pursued each of you and I definitely got the most out of all of our encounters. Henry gave me three in a row last night. I got two out of Simon and..." my voice trails off as I look from the other two to Keagan. "Well I at least got one from you."

Keagan's face goes red with what seems to be a mixture of anger and embarrassment. I hear Simon snort and look over to see him trying to hold a laugh in. Henry sits at the table next to me with his hand in front of his mouth and his eyes wide. I look between all three of them as I speak.

"My friends bet that I couldn't get with all of you because of your loyalty to one another. I told her that she was giving you guys way too much credit." I shrug, standing up from the table. "I think I'll just go and collect my reward."

I walk away from the table towards the front door, grabbing my clothes and my bag from one of the chairs on the way there.

"Kasia, wait-" one of them says, but I ignore it.

"If you still want to pass me around to the rest of the team, let them know I'm free next week." I yell as I walk out the door, slamming it behind me.
