How He Saved Her

Chapter Thirty-One

Oliver

I've been anxious this whole day. I woke up with a heavy heart because I realized that today was game day and that three scouts were coming to the game today. I had been groggily going through my classes and at the end of the day, my nail beds were bleeding from the anxious picking. Aurora, my sweet Aurora, had given me a bandage for the bleeding.

She leaned up and kissed me on the lips but I was so far away that she had sighed and pressed a kiss to my cheek instead. "Oliver?", she asked and I think I nodded. She looked so pretty. Her hair was in a super high voluminous ponytail with a streak of it temporarily dyed a dark green color. She is wearing my jersey and only my jersey. She paired that with a black mini skirt. My girl was hot.

I placed a hand on her face,"You'll be here with me the whole time right?"

"Front row seats", she says and I pulled her closer to me. I placed a finger on my neck and said,"Kiss me." She had only smirked and leaned in to kiss me. She felt good, she made me feel good. Her hand slipped under my jersey as she traced her finger up and down my muscles on my abdomen. It created goosebumps all over my body. Her teeth nibbled at the skin on my neck, over and over again and I held on to her as to not make a noise.

Only I did but she had nodded at that. God, she was hot. She pulled away too quickly and I had frowned. She placed her hand on my lip and said,"You have your game in a few minutes."

"I want to stay here. In your arms", I say and she smiles.

"I do too, but you've got three scouts to impress, go on out", she says and gets off my lap. I grab onto her hand and get up walking us out to the court. I release her hold on me with a last kiss on the lips.

"Wish me luck, principessa", I say and she gives me a huge grin which is the only luck I truly need.

"Good luck, Amore mio", the added possession makes me smile. "Thank you", I say quickly and the whistle blows signaling the attention of the audience. She walks away from me and I walk to the court. I find our coach giving us a pep talk and I hang on to his every word, taking all the advice I can get.

We won the game, and yet no scouts waited to talk to me. One of them stopped to talk to Austin and I'm happy for him. I am so happy for him, but here I am holding a drink in my hand. Aurora had agreed to come to the party as it is the last one for the season. Post season starts next week and we are going to regionals.

"Maybe they will talk to you, then", Aurora is saying to me her hand around my arm. I lean into her touch,"Maybe." I take a swig of the drink and then go to grab another one. It takes me five minutes the finish the next one and I turned to Aurora.

"Wanna dance with me, sweet Aurora?", I asked her.

"Sure", she says, smiling at me. I can live in smile, I think. I'd like to live in it. I grab another drink and pull her to the dance floor where a lot of people are dancing flushed against each other. I pull her toward me and place a gentle hand on her waist.

"Aurora", I whisper to her and she scoots closer to me. Her chest is now flushed against mine and I look down at her chest displayed in front of me. She is wearing a tank top that shows off a little bit of cleavage with my Letterman jacket. She is covered but from this angle, I can see everything. I look up at her instead and she says,"Are you okay, Oliver?"

"Why wouldn't I be, principessa?", I ask her but I sound pathetic, my voice is barely above a whisper. She places her face on my chest and sways along with the music. "I'm sorry, amore", she whispers to me.

I only run a hand through her hair, over and over again. My heart hurts for her. "How can I break your heart again?" She looks up at me and I realize I spoke out loud. "Are you planning on breaking up with me?" She sounds sad and that makes me want to punish myself.
