When Lily Langston goes to a game with her best friend. The last thing she ever thought to happen was being hit in the face with a ball.
But what left her even more shocked was when the guest pitcher himself, the known ruthless billionaire Hayes Gr...

Beckham stares at me confused as I speak. But then I look away and within seconds. I watch the olive-skinned man, become as white as a ghost.
And when I look over a grounding feeling pools in my stomach "Alisha n-needs you" I watch as Lily's lips quiver.
Fuck, she wasn't supposed to hear that.
She stands frozen for a moment and then with a horrified look on her face.
Those eyes, she stared at me with those eyes showing how much I'd hurt her. It were words I could never take by but in this instance, I wish I could. She looked away and turned around quickly. I fucked up and as she books it I stand.
"Lily wait!" I stand from the desk and look at Beckham.
"You're a fucking idiot, I knew it" An enraged look forms on Beckham's face, the dick was mad at me though he prompted the question.
"You did this!"
"I didn't do anything, you chose what words to say. It was an honest moment and you lied"
"I didn't lie Beckham!"
"Then why are you upset, why do you care that Lily's upset Hayes?" I stop at his words because I refuse to accept them. I couldn't love someone, it would be too painful for the other one involved. Because I didn't know what I was doing and I'd hurt them in the process anyway.
"I don't"
"Stop being stubborn! You don't know what love feels like and you know what. You never will because you push her away. A girl who loves you, you throw her around and treat her like trash because you just expect her to always be there. But face the facts, Hayes, one day you're gonna wake up and Lily will be gone and you won't know what to do with yourself, let alone how to look at yourself again!" He storms out of the office leaving me with his words.
Ones that swim around my head and leave me spinning. Because I didn't know how I felt, but I knew what I was. I was fucked, because I hurt Lily in a way she never deserved. She wasn't just a fuck, and she knew it. But I said it to get Beckham off my back. But if it were true, if I said those words he wished, he'd tell Lily before I'd ever be able to, hell she would've just heard.
But now I don't know if I'd ever get that opportunity to learn if it were true.
"Beckham!" I hear Alisha yell as he leaves.
Screw this.
I ran as fast as I could through the halls, down the steps, and towards the closing elevator. As the doors almost shut in the distance I charge at them slipping my and in. It alerts the sensors letting me in as it opens to an angry Beckham.
Who's shocked to see me standing in the opening? He stares at me unsure as I don't speak, but then I nod.
"Don't fucking stand there, go get her!" A voice cuts in and it's Alisha from behind I step in and press a button.
