Ellie's POV
I woke up bright and early, 6:30 AM to be exact, to shower and get myself together for the 9 AM game. After I did that I separated the jerseys into the piles of which room the boys were in since I had an Idea of what room everyone was in. I put them in order of rooms neatly putting them in a bag making my way to each room. I also figured I'd do this so I had a good idea of when Jace and Drew needed to make their way back to their room.
I Knocked on the door that Jace and Drew were supposed to be, Nick opened the door and it looked as if he didn't sleep a wink at all. "Goodmorning Nick, here's everyone's jerseys in this room." I said, trying to make it short and simple. He grabbed them then grabbed me pulling me in the room and closing the door behind him.
"What's it about Jace?" He said with a whisper assuming not to wake the others. "Huh?" I said I was a bit confused. "Why did you fall for Jace when I've obviously been trying for months you ain't even give me a fighting chance."He said looking at me with his hands crossed. "Nick.. Flirting as if you want me to sit on your dick isn't you trying for months. Trying for months would've been you attempting to get my number, actually trying to get to know me, and maybe asking me on a date. That would've been you trying what you were doing was making me feel like you only wanted me cause you knew Jace did too."
I knew he was gagged cause he paused for a second, as if I broke down his true feelings. In reality he knew he didn't like me he just knew it would fuck Jace up inside. As the silence filled the room I felt him take the bag of Jerseys from me dropping them, He pulled me close to him kissing me. I was flabbergasted, Taken aback, puzzled, bewildered, thunderstruck, allat plus some like I was just trying to be a good manager on this early Saturday morning.
He cupped my face kissing me softly, can't lie he could kiss but this kiss wasn't magical like Jace and I's were. He pulled back looking me deep in my eyes. "You're so beautiful, pure, genuine, and your a hard worker forreal. I like you Eleanor. I like you so much that I know Jace and Drew stayed the night in your room and I ain't snitch cause I don't want you in trouble. Fuck him." He said keep his eyes on me.
I had to admit I was just a bit tuned in after he said my government because I didn't even know he knew it. "Now I'll admit, I went on about getting you the wrong way. I'm used to looking at a girl a certain way and she just falls into my lap. But that's my fault Ma you not them. So, my apologies. Eleanor let me take you on a date, princess." He said, completely shocking me.
Not only did he apologize, he asked me on a date in a romatic way and now I'm brain fucked. I just stared into his eyes but in the back of my mind I'm no Crystal I need to get the fuck out of this room right now because even the Sun was on his side, beaming on his oh so clear skin making him appear angelish.
"I care about you, how about you think about it and get to me later?" He asked, interrupting the silence once again. All I could do was nod and pick up the now messed up bag of Jerseys. I continued my way to every room which took much longer because I was folding as I passed everything out. Once I finished it was around 7:45, I made my way back to the room still flustered from the recent events.

Jace's POV
Ellie let me touch on her yesterday. I was shocked but then again I wanted to do more but I had many reasons as to why I knew better. One I wanted her to be fully sure, Two I wanted more romantic circumstances , Three I wanted her to be my girlfriend, and lastly it's bad luck to get pussy right before a game. I rolled over grabbing my phone checking the time it was 30 mins till 8. I got up realizing Ellie wasn't in the bed anymore.
I looked over at Drew and Alissa and they were cuddled up closely as if they were in love. Ellie must be an early morning person. I hopped in the shower for 15 minutes, hopping out and putting on my shorts without boxers and no t-shirt. I needed to go to the room and change but I had showered here because I knew everyone was going to wake up and want to shower.
Once I got finished I put on some of Ellies deodorant. It was some girly ass scent. So when I want to play defense today these niggas gone say I smell like a pretty little bitch. I heard Ellie come in and she seemed a bit different. "You good?" I asked, looking at her concerned as she walked back in the room and just layed on the bed. " Yeah Phil told me to tell you and Drew coach should be coming and beating on everyone's door by 9. She said, turning her back towards me.
"Ellie what's wrong?" I asked, sitting behind her on the edge of the bed rubbing her back. I hope she wasn't mad at me about last night. "Don't be mad at me please." She said, I sat quietly for a second. I hope she aint have anything because Jesus I would be SICK. "Okay.. what is it ?" I asked, preparing her to tell me she either had some shit or she didn't want me.
"I went to give out the jerseys, and Nick pulled me in the room and kissed me. He confessed his feelings, asked me on a date, and shit to me too." She said as if it was even hard for her to let that come out her mouth. "I beg your pardon?" I said making her look at me, just maybe my mind was playing tricks with me and I ain't hear her correctly.
"I said.. Nick kissed me." She said looking at me this time getting straight to the point. "I'm going to kill that bitch ass nigga I swear to God." I said getting up putting on my slides. She grabbed my hand. "No Jace, I don't want to be in the middle of yall feud." Ellie said, looking at me.
"Shit if you don't kick his ass I will." Drew said hopping up. Nigga was up this whole time. "And if he's fighting I'm fighting," Alissa said, sitting up putting on a shirt. He might as well lock her down, she on go about this nigga. "No, everyone just calm down." Ellie said standing up this time.
"NO!" Alissa, Drew, and I said in sync.
"What's going on?" Dee popped in rubbing her eyes as if we woke her up. We all started yelling at her the story which Ellie told us. Her eyes bounced off everyone one by one as if she was trying to understand. "She all in all y'all lit cause he kissed Ellie?" She asked, causing everyone to nod.
"Awh man..Let me put my shoes on." She said with a sigh she was on go but was tired. "No, nobody needs to put their shoes on or go fight cause it's not that serious. "Wait.. you said he asked you on a date? What did you say?" I asked, pausing for a minute.
She just looked at me with sad eyes. "You didn't.." I said looking at her.
=============================
AN: Goodmorning, I hope you all had a lovely weekend. This is a short one because I'm tired and at work and that's a horrible combination. Have a wonderful day.
