(NOTE: In my stories, Eva is a trans woman!)
Once a month, the champions of Wuhu Island meet up to socialize. While there was a group chat they often frequented, they all liked to be in person from time to time.
This month, the champions decided to hang out on the basketball court. Of course, this delighted Eva, who had recently undergone the long-awaited operation she had vied for her entire life. To officially become a woman, physically.
She could remember waking up, seeing her two best friends and teammates Tommy and Tyrone at her side. The only difference between the boys, though, was that Tommy refused to leave her side until she was discharged.
Given that she was still recovering, Eva didn't put her all into the casual hoop-shooting that her and the other champions were doing. But her mind was continuing to fixate on Tommy. The fact that he refused to leave her side. Was he in love with her? No… he couldn't be. He's cared for her all this time, as did Tyrone. But he stayed, and Tyrone went home for the night. That really said something.Elisa figured that Eva's lack of effort was due to recovering from such a major operation, but she was concerned when a majority of her shots just skimmed off the rim of the hoop.
"Eva, you good? You're a literal basketball champion and missing 90 percent of your shots."
Eva sighed. "It's just… I'm confused."
"Confused? What do you mean?" Elisa tilted her head.
"The other week, when I had my surgery. Tommy was very clingy. He didn't leave the room."
"I remember you telling me that. Are you asking if he likes you?" Elisa raised her eyebrows.
"That's the thing! Who knows if he just cares a whole lot or if he does like me!" At this point, Eva was more venting than anything, and felt extremely tense. Elisa put a reassuring hand on her friend's shoulder. "Eva. Calm down. Look, why don't you ask him how he feels? Tommy is an honest man."
"Ask him?! Elisa, I can't! What if he doesn't actually feel that way?" Eva's face was completely red at this point, and it wasn't the light blush she usually wore.Elisa sighed. “You won’t know if you don’t ask. What’re you gonna do, wait for him to kiss you and make it even more awkward than it already will be?” She tilted her head. “I mean, though you’d reciprocate it, anyway, based on the fact I’m inferring that you return those feelings?”
Eva stopped working for a brief moment before letting out a deep, resigning sigh. “Well, I guess. But you have to keep an eye on us and catch me if I fall, metaphorically.”
Elisa nodded. “Deal. You go, girl. You go get your man.” She chuckled as Eva made her way over to Tommy and Tyrone, who were deep in conversation with Matt.“Tommy, can I have you for a moment?” Eva grabs Tommy’s attention with only the first syllable of his name, shyness and anxiety in her body language. Tommy nodded and made his way toward Eva. “Yeah. What’s up, Evs?”
Evs. The nickname continued to make her blush, then and now. Even as a friendly nickname.
Eva sighed as she finally got her and Tommy to a spot slightly further away from the other champions, though enough to where Elisa could spectate as promised. “I have a question for you that I never got to ask.” She took a deep breath. “Why did you stay with me in the hospital for so long the other week, when Tyrone went home after he lent his support?”Tommy was slightly taken aback by the question, but he knew Eva would probably be curious about it. His dark complexion gave away the incoming blush. “Well, Eva….” He began, trying to avoid a stammer, “I couldn’t leave you there on your own. I didn’t want you to be all by yourself. You went through such a major procedure and I couldn’t bear to just leave you at the mercy of the staff. I know, Wuhu Island isn’t a transphobic hellhole, but I knew someone had to be there with you. And it was going to be me, Eva.”
Tears welled up in Eva’s eyes, but she didn’t wipe them lest she ruin her eyeliner. “I’m glad you were there to keep me company, Tommy. I really am. But there has to be something more, right? Right…?” She trailed off.
“Something more? As in my intentions?” Tommy now made direct eye contact with Eva. One of his hands gently took hers. “Eva, I care about you more than anyone in the world. And I swear by Maka Wuhu, I will have to die before anything happens to you. You’ve gone through so much. I was there when you realized you were a woman. I picked out your name. I got your estrogen. I played basketball with you and Tyrone when you were sad. We raised money so that your body would match your mind. The only time I wasn’t directly there for you was when you were under the knife. Do you think I had any other intention other than to love and support you?”
Tommy’s emotions were also getting the best of him, but he realized just how much he actually was in love with Eva as he watched her blossom into the wonderful woman she was.“Tommy, I…. you love me?” Eva managed to get out as she processed the weight of Tommy’s words.
Tommy put his other hand on Eva’s cheek, wiping away the tears that fell with his rather large thumb. “Yes, Eva. I love you. More than anything in the world.”
That was just the confirmation that Eva needed. “Tommy…. I love you too.” Eva looked deeper into the male’s eyes, despite the tears flowing from her own.
Tommy pulled Eva closer to him. “Trust me when I say it, Eva. I will never let anything or anyone get in the way of your happiness.” He rests his forehead on hers.
Eva couldn’t bear it much longer and placed her lips onto Tommy’s. It didn’t take long for his hold to secure on her as he returned the kiss. They melted into each other, and only let go when they ran out of air.Elisa, who watched as promised, wipes her tears from watching the emotional exchange. “Are- are you guys done yet? We’re going to get lunch….”
Tommy was surprised that Elisa noticed their kissing- and the exchange- but gave a soft smile as he now kept Eva under his arm. “Yeah. Where to?”
Elisa chuckles. “Sandwiches. My treat.”
Eva could only beam with joy as the champions made their way to the sandwich place. She felt happier now under the care, love, and protection of Tommy.
