Love and Football (BWWM Interracial Love Story)

Chapter 27 Who is She ?

Tuesday

Kendra looked forward to Tuesdays, she couldn't lie.

Kendra walked to the library for tutoring after school. She had one more week, before her Physics test, next Friday.

She walked inside the library and saw Jason waiting for her, looking down at his phone.

She gradually became more at ease around Jason, the more and more time she spent with him in their group and alone with him during the tutoring sessions.

As she approached the table, Jason looked up from his phone and smiled when he saw her.

"Hey" He said.

"Hi".

"Isn't your test next week?"

"Yea it is" she sighed, hoping she would be fully prepared.

"Its crunch time" he smirked. "We have two more sessions, but you can always call or text me if you need more help with somethin'.

"Thank you, I appreciate it".

They started going over more physics material and doing practice questions. He even timed her as she solved questions to make sure her time management was on point for the test.

When 4:45 pm came they started to pack up.

" Thank you, you are my hero"

"No problem. Is your boyfriend cool with us meeting like this?"

The question caught her by surprise, causing her to blush. As soon as she realized she did, she quickly corrected her facial expression.

"I dont have a boyfriend"

"You don't? I saw you around with that guy Eric. I thought he was your boyfriend? "

"Eww no. He's not boyfriend material."

"Ohh" Jason snickered. "What's boyfriend material?"

"Someone with respect and kindness for one." She stated, reminded of Eric's male chauvinistic attitude.

"Yea thats most important for sure, you can't have a relationship without those."

Kendra nodded. "Is your girlfriend ok with us meeting like this...with you tutoring me? "

"I don't have one." He admitted, meeting her gaze.

"Really?...I mean...I just assumed you did."

"Why?"

"I dont know. Most guys have girlfriends I guess..especially if they're football players. They usually have girls fighting to be with them".

"Nah, a lot of the guys on the team are single, including myself."

Kendra nodded. "Well are they single, or are they just enjoying their options?" she raised an eyebrow, joking with him.

"Dang, that's what you think about us?" He joked causing Kendra to smile. "I'm jokin', but yea, some of them do."

"I mean.. It's nice to have options, I guess," she shrugged.

"I wouldn't know."

She smirked. " Yea right. I just know those cheerleaders are after you?"

"Oh yea? How would you know that?" his voice got lower. "What is it about me that would make them be after me?" He raised an eyebrow waiting for her response.

She looked him in the eye feeling challenged by his question. 'Uh oh,' she thought. She had said too much. Why would she think the cheerleaders would be after him? Time to explain.
