The Lover Boy Within

CHAPTER ONE

"The speakers are dope", Lebron stated as himself, Joel and Giannis walked into the venue with the latter nodding in acknowledgement. They had come in two cars with Giannis insisting he wanted to ride in his while the others arrived in a similar vehicle. Joel and Lebron mocked Giannis because they knew why he insisted which led to him being constantly teased. Their friend had turned rogue but never took advantage of any woman and it was always consensual.

The three friends settled in and amongst their fellow players in the league but there were so many women in attendance. Many could be seen possibly trying to catch the eyes of the single players around. The food and drinks too were in excess so there was so much going on amidst a crowded venue.

"Gimme a minute guys", Giannis said before hurriedly going into the crowd at the center. He was gone before his friends could ask him where he was off to but they knew he had probably seen someone he wanted to converse with. "Will he ever change?" Joel asked Lebron as they burst into laughter. Giannis never ceased to amaze them and they wondered when he was going to change his lifestyle.

He was dressed in dark blue Levi jeans and a white almost fitted shirt which highlighted his toned body. The Greece native had seen someone that caught his eye and was desperate to get on with her.

"Have we met before?", he asked her as he tapped her shoulder causing the girl to turn around.

"Jeeze that has to be the lamest pick up line I've ever heard", she replied then turned fully to face him and they burst out laughing. "Anyway we haven't just so I don't deflate your ego", she added with an obvious smirk.

"I agree, I just wanted to say hello and say you look fabulous tonight honestly, like you will be top of the list for all the women here", Gianni's said into her ears but as he looked at her, he couldn't take his eyes from her pretty face then looked downwards and saw her cleavage, She wasn't really busty but had a fair amount of breasts or one would say the fitted dress enhanced them.

The young woman turned to sip the drink in the champagne flute in her hand and replied him casually, "what do you want? Let me guess, you want to have sex with me and tomorrow you wake up not remembering who am I then probably chase me out of your house or most likely hotel room?", She asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Well I didn't expect you to be that blunt, what you said might be true but not entirely and some part of me wants to know you a bit, we can just talk for a while and if you don't want to ride with me tonight I won't hold you back" the forward said. "We can hang around the yard and get to know ourselves away from the loud music just for some privacy". He added and for the first time in a while he wasn't sure she would oblige.

"Nora, my name is Nora...!!!", she said as she stretched out her hand towards him.

"Giannis", he replied and they began to stroll.

The two maneuvered through the crowd and went far into the property before settling on a long wooden seat beside the pool. It was nighttime and most of the lights were off except those lighting the walkway and that at the bottom of the pool making the vicinity dimly lit.

"What do you do?", Giannis asked as he leaned back on the chair as he asked.

"I'm a newly recruited sport writer with Fox and I'm quite surprised at myself that I came to this party tonight, two of my colleagues practically dragged me here", she explained and laughed.

"That should be the two ladies that were next to you when I came around, Are they also new too? They looked spent to be honest", He queried.

"Yes, all employed the same day, if I took the amount of shots each of them had I would have been drunk too ", Nora said laughing as Giannis monitored her closely.
