Lies, Tears & New Beginnings

Chapter 2: Game Day

I get out of the shower, put on some lingerie and throw on some gold tights and my #32 football jersey Derrick got made for me which is white, black and gold. As I begin to put on my black and white converse I get a call from Brianna.

"Hey girl, what's going on now?" I ask her.

"Nothing much, but are you going to the game? If so can I ride with you?" She says a little dry toned as if there's something more to it.

"Sure, but bring extra money for the concession stand, don't start drama and if you could please move on cause D-Wop ain't shit," I say before hanging up.

I grab my purse, gives my mom a kiss on the cheek letting her know I'll be back later. I grab the keys off of the table on my way out and make my way to my baby blue Chevrolet avalanche. On my way to Brianna's house my fav song, Games by Speaker Knockerz comes on and I sing along to it.

"You gave me another reason not to trust a bitch, running round here playing all these games and shit, but I don't know why I can't get you off my mind (I can't), just hit my phone you know I'll be there all the time..."

As I pull up to friend's house she's already outside. As she gets in she asks me, "Who of all people at the game could I get with to move on from him?"

"OMG, so your just going to let D-Wop get in the way of you moving on, like really do you know that there are plenty of boys who could treat you so much better than the way he did you, if I was in your position I would at least stay single for a while to get myself together," I say arriving at the game and getting out of the truck.

We paid our way in and walked over to the concession stand getting skittles, m&ms and Powerades. Brianna quickly left me to go sit with some light skinned tall cutie, so I walked up to the side of the fence to watch Derrick and his friends warm up for there game against Lochapoka.

"Well hey there," Jamon says approaching me.

"Well hey to you too," I say not really wanting to talk to him, nor see him after the way he treated me last year in our relationship.

"I really miss you y'know-" he says getting cut off by Derrick.

"I see you made it to my game early," he says coming up behind me putting his arms around me.

"Yeah, to see you. Sooo are y'all done warming up or did you make up an excuse to come see bae," I say while grabbing his hand about to walk off before my ex says something.

"This conversation isn't over."

"Bae what is he talking about," Derrick asks me looking into my hazel eyes questionably.

"Don't worry I'll explain that some other time, but right now you need to be focused on your game."

"Trust and believe I am, but besides that I'm always focused on you too," he says kissing me on my forehead.

"Well I think it's game time so get on the field D.C., but also remember the harder you get hit, get up with more confidence because I believe in you and you should believe in you."

Close to the end of 4th quarter I hear my friend and Ally arguing. I really don't want to deal with this because it's stupid, D-Wop and his friends sit there laughing, and finally the buzzard sounds meaning game over and we had won that game 44 to 14. I walk over to Derrick and signal for Brianna to come on so we can leave.
