Chapter 4

Bachira

I made it back to the field and saw that everyone was stretching, I joined Nagi and Reo not wanting to deal with the questions I'm sure Isagi, Chigir and Kunigami had. I started stretching and Nagi gave me a nod of greeting but Reo smiled.

"Heard the guys ran into your girlfriend on their way here"

I groaned quietly. "She's not my girlfriend."

"But you want her to be?" Nagi questioned.

"We're friends." Was all I said and they continued to stare. "It's complicated, plus we don't know each other that well."

"Complicated how?" Nagi let out a grunt.

"She's the owners daughter." I let out a grunt of my own and Reo's head snapped towards me.

"Wait, they were talking about y/n?" He asked surprised and my eyes narrowed.

"How do you know her?"

"I met her in college before I left to come here, she's a cool chick. I can see why you'd like her, it's hard not to." He panted slightly.

I tried to put a lid on my emotions, I just met her so I shouldn't be upset that Reo knew her before me, I have no claim on her. "Cool." Was all I said and he chuckled.

"Nothing happened dude. She's all yours." I liked the sound of that before I banished the thought. "She also wouldn't give any guy her time of day and she was surrounded by athletes, it was funny watching her humble them." He shook his head and I relaxed slightly before tensing again. What did he mean by that? Does she not date athletes?

"She not into athletes?" I let my curiosity get the better of me.

"Not sure, all I know is that she wasn't into them, or anyone at college. She never dated far as I know." I hummed and continued stretching until coach blew his whistle. After a grueling practice, we headed towards the weight room. I felt an arm lay across my shoulders and I looked up to Kunigami, I raised a brow.

"We didn't ruin anything with your girl, did we?" He asked and I rolled my eyes.

"No you didn't and she's not my girl." I replied with a shrug. "You guys should have realized who she was when I said her name."

"Yeah, sorry about that.." Chigiri sheepishly said. "Though, she didn't seem opposed to the idea when I asked."

"She turned almost as red as you, it was cute." Isagi smiled and I shook my head with a sigh.

"You know that can't happen. She's not only the owners daughter but the team doctor, I wouldn't want to put her in an uncomfortable situation." I said with my voice soft. I knew they were exchanging looks but I couldn't care, the whole thing sucked.

I would love to pursue her, there's just something about her that makes me want everything. Laughs, smiles, good memories, sad memories, fights, fuck you name it. I wanted it all.

"So friends then?" Isagi questioned.

I nodded. "Friends." Fuck that word.

We entered the weight room and began our different regiments, I almost smashed my legs in the leg press when I saw her enter the room.

I quickly locked the machine before I hurt myself and tried to get my breathing under control. I watched her look around the room and I wondered who she was looking for, when her eyes connected with mines she let out a smile and made her way towards me.

She didn't notice all the eyes that turned to look at her and if it wasn't for the fact that you never moved your eyes off me, I'd probably lose my shit.
