𝐒𝐇𝐄 𝐂𝐎𝐔𝐋𝐃 𝐍𝐎𝐓 really decipher what she felt, was it dejection? a sense of gloominess? or the one term she didn't want to associate with let alone think of, bitterness. she had no desire to admit it out loud, especially in front of james due to him behaving like a mother hen and as much as she loved the vice captain like an older brother, she wasn't in the mood for the same lecture over and over hence why when she walks out to the pitch right after the team and coaches, james was the first to notice her off expression.

and from the looks of it, it seems that he wasn't the only one, jordan's gaze gravitated to her — how could it not? she simply possessed the power to draw anyone towards her, no wonder azpi is interested. the blonde thinks to himself. attempting his best to bury the jealousy threatening to escape.

" how's alina? " james asks him, kicking the ball to him.

" she's good, not sure why you're asking me " jordan shrugs before kicking the ball back to him.

" well, aren't you two an item? or, i'm sorry " james paused with a smile, " pretending to be an item because you're a bonehead who doesn't want to admit his feelings "

jordan shoots him a glare briefly before smiling, " i have no clue what you're talking about milly " he kicks the ball to him.

" sure you don't, but for the record! since you have a "date" with alina tomorrow, figured you'd like to know that so does 𝐬𝐡𝐞 " james nods his head towards luna, who was thankfully not close to them.

the smile on jordan's face fell, " pardon? "

" yeah " james nods, " azpi asked her out, and she said yes "

jordan stiffens upon hearing the thought, he had been trying his best to bury the images that were haunting him since césar started to show interest towards luna, " well ... " he began slowly, " good for her "

james raised a brow, " you can't be serious right now? "

" i am " jordan nods, " it's complicated milly, and i said it a million times, i just got luna back and i'm not about to lose her again for feelings that i am still unsure about "

james lets out a sigh, " i swear i'm this close to kicking this ball right to your face "

" well, you can't do that now can you? " jordan said, " we can drop this whole thing, for my sake and peace of mind, azpi is a sound lad and i'm sure he can make luna happy "

the blonde looks at luna, who was smiling at trent and andrew's playful banter just before she captured a photo of them, he then looked at james who gave him a knowing look. " can we just focus on warming up? "

" sure but sooner or later you'll realize how idiotic you are " james shrugs.

james's words had accomplished their intended purpose, jordan had tried yet he cannot shake the images of césar and luna out of his mind — just then, his thoughts were interrupted by luna laughing at something luis said which subconsciously made him smile and in turn made james chuckle, " hm, definitely not in love "
