Team Captains (Rewrite)

Chapter 14

"So..." The awkward silence was lingering in the air.

Both the football team and the volleyball team were sitting in Daniel's living room. We were scattered all over the place and the place was pretty cramped. Daniel and I had decided to not bring up the kiss that we had shared the day prior. We had mostly avoided each other.

We decided to just hang out at Daniel's house today and Bonnie surprisingly agreed to the idea.

After last night, Chrissy and Troy were acting weird. Daniel noticed as well and he even confronted me about it. Soon enough, everyone started noticing.

We all took subtle glances at Chrissy and Troy who were sitting next to each other. There was a lot of room in between them. A sumo probably could be able to fit in between them.

They gave each other nervous glances and it made me wonder what happened last night when Troy brought Chrissy home.

"Hey Kennedy," Daniel called out to me. He was standing in the doorway that separated the kitchen and the living room.

I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion. Once I reached him, I threw him an annoyed look. "What do you want?" I asked.

"I think there's something going on between Troy and Chrissy." he whispered. "But I haven't found out what yet."

I gave him a flat look. "They like each other? And they finally realized it last night? It's going to be awkward for the first few days and then everything will fall into place. They're just acting like that because they think no one knows."

He shook his head and pinched the bridge of his nose. "No I mean something more."

I raised my eyebrows. "What do you mean?"

He ignored my question and continued to talk. "Wen just need to gather more information-."

"Woah," I interrupted. "We?"

"Yeah Chrissy is your best friend? Right?" I nodded. "And Troy is mine. We need to know if something happened."

I sighed in defeat. "Fine. I guess you're right. Omigod do you think they had sex?"

Daniel rolled his eyes. He ignored my question and started walking into the living room with me in tow. "Where are Troy and Chrissy?" Daniel asked, scanning the room for the pair.

"They went upstairs," Ashley said.

We both nodded in understanding before turning to the stairs.

"Where are you guys going?" Ashley asked.

We slowly turned around and I blurted out. "Bathroom."

Ashley smirked and quirked an eyebrow up. "Together?"

"Uh...Yeah... I was um going to show her uh where it is," Daniel stuttered out a lie.

Ashley shrugged and turned her attention back to Kendrick. I knew she didn't believe us and she was going to pester me about it later.

Once we were on the stairs and out of earshot, we both let out a breath of relief.

"Phew, that was close," I said.

"Yeah my awesome fast thinking skills got us out of that," Daniel said, smiling triumphantly.

I rolled my eyes. "Of course it was," I replied sarcastically.

"Oh I hear noise coming from the guest room," Daniel pointed out, rushing to the door.

He pressed his ear against the door and gestured for me to come listen. "I hear them talking," he whispered.
