Let's See How This Works Out. || D. Amendola

Chapter 11

Tom's POV

I was done with practice for the day and I was sitting outside the locker room waiting for Nicole to be don working so we could go home and relax. As I was waiting I figured I would go on my phone, maybe check some social media and whatnot. I opened Twitter, and lets just say I was not very happy with what I saw. Fans were sending me tons of messages with links to various webpages with pictures of Danny and Nicole, and they weren't just any pictures, they were pictures of the two kissing! Needless to say I was not happy with what I saw, I closed Twitter and waited patiently for Nicole. 

The whole ignoring my phone ordeal did not last very long when I saw the screen light up with a text from Danny. 

From: Amendola

Hey man, some of the guys are coming over to my place for a couple beers later. Stop by if you can. -D

After reading his text I figured, even though he is getting REAL cozy with my little sister, he is one of my best friends, and I really need a drink or five. So I texted back with my RSVP.

To: Amendola

Hey man, I'll be there. Boy do I need a drink. Is it ok if I bring Nicole along? I think I'm gonna need a DD. ha. -T

I figured I should ask if Nicole could come along too because I mean 1. She is working with the team now, she should get to know the guys a little better. 2. Even though I'm still not totally cool with this whole relationship thing, I thought they would both like any chance they got to see each other. And 3. It's been a long, stressful week of practice and I'm gonna need someone to drive me home. My phone soon lit up with a response from Danny.

From: Amendola

Yeah totally, bring Nicole! See ya later. -D

After I read Danny's text Nicole walked out from the field.

"Ready to go home?" I asked

"Yep, been kind of a long day haha." She said looking around. "This place is super cool, thanks for getting me this job Tommy." she smiled at me. I can't even try to be mad at this girl, she's got me wrapped around her finger. 

"Yeah, this place is really cool, and no problem. I wanted you to come be with the team more and I figured what better way then to get you a job right?" I smiled back at her, then added. "Coach, and they guys love you." I winked at her. She knew what I was referring to. She elbowed me playfully and we hopped in my car.

Nicole's POV

I hopped in Tom's car and we headed home. I had to bring up my lunch date with Danny sometime so I figured let's bite the bullet and get it over with. Tom has been like this with every boy I've dated and it never gets better, sometimes he's more of a father than a brother, but I love him so I'll deal with it. 

"So I'm pretty sure you saw the pictures?" I asked. I've never been afraid of Tom's reaction to me seeing any other guy, but now since it was his teammate and one of his best friends I just kissed I was kinda a little afraid of what he'd have to say about it. 

"Yeah" was all he said. I couldn't read his reaction if my life depended on  it, he just had a straight face.

"And... you're mad, not mad, maybe happy for me?" I asked really really really hoping he wasn't mad. I mean it's  not like we're dating, it was just a kiss. 

"Not mad." was all I got out of him.

"Tooooooommmmmmmmm." I whined. He knew what he was doing. He loved to get a rise out of me.
