! Curse words included !

And that was it. The deal was on.

I put on my sports shoes and my white t-shirt. I put up my hair into a high ponytail and got one of the paddles on the bench.
I walked over to my side of the hall. I took one deep breath.

I never played paddle.

Then, I threw the ball with the paddle to cris' side. And that is how it begun.

We played intensely for about fifteen minutes.
Unfortunately, I lost control of the ball and I lost.
Shit.

Cris: Looks like you're not as sporty as everyone says you are
Y/n: Oh shut up.

He chuckled and put the paddle on the bench before sitting down and taking a quick sip of water.

Y/n: I still have to clean the gym. So I can still prove myself.
Cris: Nah. I said you have to do both to be able to join the club.
Y/n: Oh come on. I literally almost beat you.
Cris: Yeah but you didn't

I rolled my eyes and sat down next to him. I took a sip of my water and turned to look at him. We were the only ones left in the gym hall since everyone left. Cris told them to leave cuz I had to do all the work anyways.
There was silence and it was killing me. I usually like being alone and silence but for some reason it was just killing me.

I decided to bring up a topic.

"I saw you and Aria in the other classroom arguing about something today, what was it about?"
"That's not important."
"I'm really curious"
"I don't wanna tell you"
"Okay I guess. I respect your decision." I said and sighed
"Fucking hell." He whispered before sighing.
"Aria wants me to fake date her. We were a couple once."
"I know that, genius. W-wait..fake date her?"
"She wants me to date her because she wants to use me. I'm the captain of the football/soccer and paddle team. She's the captain of the cheer team and she wants me to date her so her reputation goes sky high. I didn't agree and now she's blackmailing me so I have basically no choice."
"I-...I'm so sorry for asking about it Cris."
"It's fine, it's not your fault cookie"

Cookie. That damn nickname does things to me. In a good and bad way.

"How is she blackmailing you?" I asked after clearing my throat
"She's blackmailing me with my stepmom. Gio. Gio loves Aria. And Aria knows that. And it's bad that she knows it cuz she's saying stuff like she has Gio wrapped around her finger and that she can make Gio be on aria's side. Basically just stuff like that."
"Cris...I can help you find a solution to this."
"Why would you wanna help me? We hate each other."

He had a point. A really good one.

"True but... I don't know.. I just don't wanna feel guilty for knowing this and not helping."
"You're fine, Cookie. Just stay out of it"

I bit my cheek and stood up before walking away to get something.

I came back to the gym hall with a broom and I looked at Cris.

"Better get to cleaning now, huh?" I said and laughed

He smiled and stood up.

"You don't need to help me" I said
"I know, but I have to. After all I'm the captain and it's my duty"
"Ok well then, let's clean"

I laughed before walking to the dirty parts of floors in the gym hall

I cleaned the whole gym with Cris. It was surprisingly not so bad. For the first time in a while, I didn't want to kill him with anything I had.
