SECRETS ARE THE BEST WHEN BEING KEPT

*

It's safe to say that after at least four orgasms, Alexis couldn't see clearly anymore. She has been exhausted, yet she's cheering beside the field. Ashton is doing pirouettes in the goal. He's been bored to death there. The defense has been quite impressive today.

What else was really good today was Luke's mouth on her pussy.

Alexis feels two hands on her shoulders and notices immediately that those are Calum's. Yet, her eyes stay on the blonde on the field. They have scored three times now, but she missed the feeling of being hugged. It was their ritual. And as much as she tries to dislike him for blackmailing her, she still loves Michael.

"I want Luke to score," Alexis shares with her raven-haired best friend. Calum frowns at the girl. She never calls him by his first name. He decides not to ask her. He could ask Michael what's going on between them. She clearly wants to watch the game instead of talking.

Luke runs towards the goal and shoots the ball with a force of power. The muscles in his leg tense up. She has never looked at that or him that way. Luke smiles brightly once the ball falls into the net. It always feels so satisfying. For once, he's not what everybody calls him. He is the guy who scored the ball, and people cheer him on for that. Luke looks at the sideline to see Alexis jumping and cheering.

He runs towards the girl. He'd be blind if he didn't see the disappointment before. Once he's in front of her, he grabs her face to kiss her. He smells like sweat, and his face is wet, but she couldn't care less. "Maybe that should be our thing," he winks at her before running on the field again.

"So, it's pretty serious between the two of you?" He asks his best friend. Her cheeks turn red instantly when she realizes Calum still stands behind her. "Does he know about the bet?"

"He doesn't, but I have tried to call it off several times. Mike just... Blackmailed me," Calum chokes back a breath as he hears it. "So, we aren't friends anymore."

"I was already wondering why he didn't come to you," he says softly. "He was shit-talking you, so I wondered if the two of you fought." Calum squeezes her shoulders tighter once the ball goes to the opponent's side.

"What did he say about me?" She says. Calum sighs deeply, not wanting to be the person in the middle. "It's okay. I'm not going to talk to him anyways."

"Trust me... It is better to keep my mouth shut about that shit right now." The brunette turns around and wraps her arms over one another. She needs to know what Michael said about her. Calum never exaggerates. Calum saying that he shouldn't be saying anything means that it's actually not good at all. "You know I won't say shit. It's not to defend him. It's to protect you. Although I believe you both make mistakes, I chose your side. Always."

Her arms wrap themselves around the guy. She has never wanted to put him in this position, and Alex wants him to get out of it. It is something between her and Michael. Calum never had to be involved.

Calum's mind keeps racing. He feels like telling the girl what Michael said about her. How she was just his friend, so he'd be able to fuck her. How she was a naive little fucker. How the girl never had an opinion for herself. That the things she went through were only to get his attention. How she wore tight dresses for him. How Michael was only there for her to be able to fuck her after.

Calum isn't stupid. Michael fell in love with her and eventually wanted her as more than a friend. Alexis never saw that, but she loved Michael so much as a friend. Michael always cared for her, but now that he's sure he can't have her, he's playing the nasty game.
