Chapter 50

Alex pov:

Day 2 of detention. Hooray!!! Can you see my sarcasm?

I walked up to Connors office door hesitating to knock but eventually gave in and did a little beat on his door.

" I said I don't kn- Alex what are you doing here? You're early?" Connor said answering the door

" actually, I'm 10 minutes late" I smiled sheepishly

"Oh?" He states questionably

"But I'm sure I'll come up with s good excuse" I said quickly " umm, uh, I- I got nothing"

He chuckles " what about the truth?"

" I over slept" I mumbled

He chuckles again " ok come on in"

I walked pass him taking a good look at his face and he looked like he was depressed like I could almost smell it off of him

" you ok?" I asked taking a set

" uh yeah just some stuff going on right now" he said quietly

" you want to talk about it?"

" honestly? Not really" I sat down across from me

" ok just know my offer still stand if you ever want to talk" I said playing with my cast

It was quiet for what I think was 10 minutes until he spoke up

" Alex? "

"Hmm"

" you said your family died. How do you pay to come to school?" Boom there goes the bomb

" I don't want to make you feel like a dick" I stated

" what? Why would I feel like a dick?" He looked puzzled

I laughed " you have no clue do you?"

Confusion all over his face

" I'm here on a scholarship" I looked down

" for what?" Really going to push it connor?

" you ready to feel like an ass?" I asked

" thought you said dick but yeah I guess" he said still confused

I looked up" Softball"

His face softened

"Alex I didn't know I'm sorry" he spoke quietly

" yeah well now that I'm off the team it won't be long till the dean tells me I have to leave" I sat straight

" Alex, if you do something for me I'll let you be back on the team" he looked at me

" last time I did that, while I broke my arm " I said showing him my cast

" I know but this won't involve you getting hurt, I hope" he mumbled the last part but I still heard him

" what do I got to do for ya?" I asked

"I need you to pretend to be my girlfriend"

Well shit

" just for one night, I swear"

" why" i asked

" my parents are in town and I told them that I have a girlfriend and now they want to meet her"

" and you want me to pretend to be her? Im sure you can go find a different girl that will actually go out with you" I stated

" it's not that easy"

" why not?"

" because I'm gay" well there's another bomb

" wait, really?"

" yes, yes really, now will you please do me this favor?" He looked up pleading

"I'll have to check with Jc but sure" I smiled shaking his hand

Well I guess I'm dating my coach now
