Falling For The Player (ON HOLD!)

Chapter: 10(pic of james)

-Lilly's POV-
The boys continued fighting throwing punches at each other. I didn't know what to do. All I did was lay there and watch in horror. After a while I snapped out of the daze I was in and pressed the nurse button constantly until finally a doctor and nurse came rushing in my room. They saw the boys fighting so both of them pulled James and Ace apart. "She isn't yours Ace!" James yelled. I started crying. Both of these guys are very important to me and I didn't want them like this. "She isn't yours either James!" Ace snarled. "STOP!" I yelled making both the boys stop struggling under the male nurse and doctor. "Dr. Zander and Nurse Dylan?" I asked. "Yes Miss Ryder?" They both said at the same time. "Please let the boys gather their things but make sure they leave please. They are not allowed to visit me unless I okay it." I tell them and they both nod. "Lilly come on I'm your best friend." James says pleading with his eyes. I look away from James knowing that if I look in his eyes I would change my decision. "I understand Lilly. Can I at least see your phone?" Ace says and I nod handing him my phone. His fingers fly over my screen and he then hands my phone back to me. I look at the screen and I couldn't help but smile at my screen. He gave me his number and what made me smile was his contact name. 'Ace the Great'. I looked up and saw a smirk plastered on his face. "Really Ace?" I asked and he nodded saying, "Ace the Great lives on." He says. I let out a small giggle and then he swoops in and gives me a kiss on the cheek. "Bye Lilly. I'll miss you on my first day back." Ace says walking towards the door. "Lilly I'm sorry that we fought like that. I just didn't want you with him. I want you with Jovani since I totally ship that for life. Lovani for life!" He says being incredibly dramatic. "I know James. I love you okay?" He nods and swoops down and kisses my forehead. "Love you too Lilly. And I know you wanted your brother here but he couldn't take it okay? You understand right?" He asks and I nod. "Bye Lilly." He says and I said, "Bye James and no fighting with Ace at school." He lets out a chuckle and says while walking out the door, "I won't promise you anything Lilly." He says then I hear my door close. I smiled to myself. I let out a long sigh and decided to check instagram. I had over 20k followers on there and I only followed like 700 people. I was going through the feed when something caught my eye. I read the comment out loud, "I can't wait to have my brother and Lilly back together. And once Jovani and I are together we could totally double date." This came from no other than Samantha Stewart. The picture was from the day I met Jovani when he ditched us for her and the rest of her crew. He had his arm around her her and she was smiling up at him while he was just smirking at the camera. I threw my phone across the room not caring if it broke or not. I cried into my pillow to let everything out and not holding back anything. *****I cried for a good 30 minutes and I finally fell asleep with a tear stained face. *************

-Jovani's POV-
*Beep* *Beep* *Beep* I groaned and grabbed my phone to turn off the alarm. I stood up stretching a bit and I felt the cold air bite my bare chest and legs. I looked through my drawers and pulled out a pair of boxers and headed for the bathroom. I spent a short time in the shower and when I stepped out I slipped on my boxers and wrapped the towel around my neck. I walked back into my room and picked out a pair of navy blue jeans and a black v-neck shirt. I slipped them both on and went back into my bathroom. I tossed the towel on the counter and grabbed my gel bottle. I squeezed the bottle, rubbed my hands together and ran both hands through my hair. After I finished up with my hair I sprayed on some cologne and again left my bathroom. I slipped on my black socks and then finally slipped on my white and black converse. I left my room with only my keys, wallet, and phone. I was about to leave the house until my mom's voice stopped me. "Jovani get your ass in this kitchen." I groaned and walked into the kitchen. "What mom?" I asked. "Take your sister to school with you." She said in a final tone leaving no room for me to argue with her. "Katie get your ass down here!" I yelled and my mom slapped my shoulder. "What has gotten into you Jovani?" She asks and I shrug. I left the kitchen and waited by the door to wait for my annoying sister. Finally I heard her rapid footsteps coming down the stairs and I saw her go into the kitchen which made me groan. "Katie let's go!" I yelled. "Shut up Jovani! You're not the boss of me you annoying puto." She said. "Excuse yourself, I'm the one taking you to school. I could easily ditch you." I said with a smirk. "If you do then I tell mom and you get an ass whooping." She smirked and mine dropped. "Whatever. Get your ass out the door." I said and she left the house with me trailing behind her. She was already on my bike waiting for me. I walked to my bike and started it making it roar with life. I sped down the road until we finally reached the school. I waited until my sister to get off so I could get off myself. I turned off my motorcycle and walked off into the school and completely forgetting or should I say ignoring my sister. "Nice Jovani. Some brother you are." Katie scoffed as she walked past me and into the office. I rolled my eyes. "Hey man what's up?" Jordan asks. "Nothin dude." I said and looked around. My eyes landed on Samantha who was smirking while looking at me. "Hey man talk to you later." I told Jordan and then left him. I walked over to where Samantha was and she dropped the smirk and replaced it with a smile. "Hi Jovani." She said seductively. I smirked. This girl is to easy. "Hey." I said. Her friends started giggling and whispering things. "So you finally saw that I was so much better than that little whore Lilly Ryder?" She asks and I nod. "So much better." I told her and all of a sudden I heard a gasp. "What the hell is wrong with you!" James says. I goroaned and rolled my eyes. "Get away from me you fag." I said and everyone that heard started laughing. "Oh you guys didn't know? Your fellow football player here is gay." I said smirking. "You dick." James said then I felt a sharp pain on my jaw. The little fag punched me. "So the little fag wants to fight?" I sneered. I then took another punch to the jaw. Right when I was about to punch him, someone held me back. "Stop Jovani!" Jordan yelled. "Why, are you his bitch now?" I asked and everybody was laughing. "What the HELL has gotten into you Jovani!?" Jordan yells. "Nothing bitch." I snarled. James punched me for the third time and this time I was pissed. I tackled him to the grown and started punching him. He then got a grip of my wrist and he turned us around so now he was on top of me. "What are you gonna do? Fuck me?" I said. I then heard the principal's voice and I felt James being pulled off me. "Who started it?!" The principal yelled. "I did sir." James said breathing heavily. "Both of you in my office NOW!" We both followed him to his office. He then told us to sit down and asked, "Okay Mr. Bennett why did you punch Mr. Hernandez?" The principal said. "Because he called my best friend a whore, called me a fag, and told everyone I was gay when I wasn't ready to tell everyone." he listed off. I rolled my eyes and scoffed, "Is this true?" The principal asked me. "Yeah." I admitted. "So technically Jovani started it, is what I'm getting at." Mr. I forgot his name said. "Well Mr. Hernandez you will be suspended for a week of school for insulting not just one but two students and participating in a fight and also 2 weeks of detention. Mr. Bennett you will be suspended only 4 days for participating in a fight even if you were protecting yourself and a friend and also 1 week of detention. You may now return to the rest of your classes for today but I better not see you tomorrow." He says and James just nods while I'm already halfway to the door. I didn't go to my class and went to the back of the school where there was no cameras. I pulled out the weed I was about to smoke when I heard shuffling. I saw three guys smoking their own weed so I lit mine up and joined the guys. " 'Sup. The name's Nick." Nick introduces himself. I can tell he's on the football team since him and the two other guys had their letter jackets on. "Yo. Name's Jovani." I said. "I'm Matt." The other said. "I'm Mike but everyone calls me Mikey." He says I nod. We smoked for a bit and talked. We started talking more once all of our weed were completely gone and we were high as fuck. "Yo Jovani. Aren't you dating that one girl? What was her name? All I know she is like really hot!" Mikey asked. "Uh Samantha?" I said. "Nah man, Ryder's sister. Ryder's sister is WAY hotter than Samantha. " Nick let out a bark of laughter. "Yo Mikey her name's Lilly and yeah she is one fine piece of ass. I would totally bang her." Nick says. "Nah I ain't dating her man. The bitch dumped me cuz I fucked Samantha Stewart while we were dating." I said smiling lazily. "So what I'm hearing is she's single and ready to mingle?" Mikey says I shook my head chuckling. "No bro. The little whore got another guy ready to fall to her feet for her. Some childhood best guy friend of her's. I think his name was......Ajax? Chase?" I kept guessing. "The name's Ace." Nick said and I snapped my fingers while pointing at him. "That's him. Anyways James told me that he was back." I said. "Yoooo, Ace is a legend in this town. From Pre-K to 8th grade, he had girls following him until he left and moved somewhere. I think today is his first day, well that's what the rumors are saying. I wouldn't be surprised that Lilly the most popular girl would date the most popular guy AKA Ace." Nick says. I rolled my eyes. "If he can handle her." I muttered. Luckily nobody heard. We talked until the weed wore off and we all scurried up and went to our separate vehicles. My eyes were killing me so I took out the little bottle of eyes drops I brought. When I bring weed, I also bring my eye drops. After I put on my drops I walked over to my bike and hopped on it. I didn't want to go home so I started riding to the cafe that Lilly showed us too. I walked in the cafe and the owner came up to me, "Out." She pointed to the door. "What!? Why?!" I asked. "Because you broke my poor Lilly's heart and whoever hurts Lilly are definitely not welcomed here!" She says. "I wanna talk to your husband then." I tell her. "Fine. Honey come out here!" she yells to her husband. Seconds later I see a tall man with a dirty apron and a chef's hat. "Yes sweetie?" He said in his deep voice. "This young boy is Jovani, C'est le garçon qui a brisé le coeur de Lilly. He wanted to talk to you." She said. It sounded like she spoke some french. "Get out. Lilly does not deserve un connard like you." He snarled. "What you just say to me?" I asked. "I said Lilly does not deserve a dickhead like you." He said and grabbed my arm and pushed me through the door. I rolled my eyes and walked to my bike. I got on it but before I drove away from the place that I was apparently banned from I checked the time on my phone. School wasn't over yet so I slipped my phone back into my pocket and drove to a location someone told me about. So a couple days ago someone saw my bike and asked me if I raced and I told them I use to back in Puerto Rico. He gave me an address to this place where they do backstreet bike races. Today I decided to check it out. It was around 10-15 minutes away from the cafe. I heard the roars of bikes and the cheers and boos from people. There was a bar set up there called Red. I rode my bike to the back of the bar where there was this HUGE opened space and a lot of people hanging there sipping on their beers. "Hey what's your name?" Some girl said. I ignored her. "Yo! You new here?" This latino guy said. "Yeah. My name is Jovani Hernandez." I said. "I'm Carlos. Carlos Rivera." He says sticking his hand out so I could shake it and that's exactly what I did. "So you race?" He asked and I nodded. "Yeah use to when I was back in Puerto Rico." I said. "Ah, I knew I sensed your Puerto Rican accent. I'm from Cuba but my parents are Puerto Rican." He says and I nod. "So you a mix?" I asked and this time it was his turn to nod. "How'd you find out about this place?" He asked yet another question but I wasn't bothered. "Some guy told me." I replied. "So who started this thing anyways?" I asked. "That would be the owner of this very bar. His name is Ace. Ace Ramierez." He tells me and my body stiffens. "Yo you alright?" He asks. "Y-yeah." I said. "Then why'd you become stiff when I said the owner's name?" I shook my head. "Nothing but isn't he like 17?" I asked. "Nah man he's 18 but his dad use to own this bar but he passed it onto his son. He started this back when he was 14. The racing I mean." Carlos explains. "He use to race when he was 14?!" I asked. "Not exactly. He started when he was 10. His dad was the one who trained him. His dad was the best until he got into a bike accident which made him stop." Carlos finishes and I'm left astonished. "Wow." I said. "Yeah. I heard he's back but this time he's interested in this girl." He says. "Ace?" I ask. "Yeah man. So like he's known this girl since like I think 2nd or 3rd grade-" I cut him off. "Yeah I know already, by the way he knew her since 2nd grade but met her 3rd." I said. "You know Ace?" Carlos asks. "Not personally. I know the girl he's chasing after. She's my ex." I finished and his eyes went wide. "You aren't trying to get her back right?" He asks. "No, quite the opposite, I'm trying to forget her. Why the question though?" I was genuinely curious. "Because he's after her, and when he wants something he always gets it no matter what." He says. "Well he can have her cuz I'm done with her." "Good. You don't want to be on Ace's bad side, especially if you wanna be a part of this. I also heard that he joined a gang." He says. "What gang and who's the leader?" I asked. "I know the gang is called The Killers but I don't know their leader. All I heard was the leader got out of jail recently or something." He says. "Wow man." I said and he nods. "What high school you go to?" Carlos asked me. "Cape High." I said. "Oh crap dude your going to the same high school as Ace and that girl." He says. "Yeah I know. How about you?" I asked him. "Well I was actually planning on transferring to Cape. Good idea or nah?" He asks. "Nah man that's a good idea. I acted like a complete dick today and I pretty sure my best friend hates me now cuz I called his girlfriend's best friend a whore. So yeah transfer man." I tell him and he nods. "Yeah I was gonna tell you that you smell like weed." Carlos says. "Yeah man I did it a while ago. No longer stoned." I tell him. "Well I'm leaving this place." Carlos says. "Yeah me too man. I don't know where I'm gonna go man." I said. "Home?" Carlos chuckled. "Nah man I can't. I'm probably in trouble with my mom since I didn't take my sister home from school since I ditched." I said. "You afraid of your mom?" He said with a teasing grin on his face. "Dude she's full on Puerto Rican. You have no idea what she will do. One thing I do know. If she uses my full name then I'm dead." I tell him. "What IS your full name anyways?" Carlos asks. "Jovani Marcos Julian Hernandez." I said. "Alright man, here give me your number. Oh and just go home. Better to get it over with now than later." He says handing me his phone. I type in my number and he does the same on my phone. "Alright later bro!" We both yelled over the roars of our bikes. We road our separate ways. Carlos was right about getting it done now. I road all the way home. Before I could even put my key in the keyhole of the front door, the door flew open. "Where have you been!?!" My mom yelled. "Out." was all I said. "Jovani Marcos Julian Hernandez! You were suppose to take your sister home. Luckily Jonathan dropped her off here." She said. "Jonathan as in Lilly's brother?" I asked. She nodded and I rolled my eyes. "Give me your xbox cable, tv cable, playstation cable, wii U cable, and your phone NOW!" She said. "Por que!?" I asked raising my voice which was a bad idea. "Because I got a call from your principal telling me that you called Lilly a whore, James a fag, EXPOSED James as gay to the whole school, AND got into a fight with him! Y no te atrevas a levantar la voz a mí­!" She yelled. I rolled my eyes. "He asked for it." I said. "Oh really what did he do?" She asked tapping her foot impatiently. "Whatever mom here." I slapped my phone on her hand. I ran upstairs grabbed the cables she wanted and ran back down and gave them to her. "Happy now?" I asked. "What has gotten into you. You are back to the you back in Puerto Rico." She said. "Whatever. I'm going to my room." I told her and left before she could say anything else. I turned on my laptop and logged into my instagram. I was scrolling through all the posts I posted on Instagram when I saw I was tagged on a picture. I clicked the image and I was stunned by what it said under the photo in the comment. •I can't wait to have my brother and Lilly back together. And once Jovani and I are together we could totally double date.• What the hell Samantha? I don't remember telling her we were gonna start dating, I just wanted a fuck buddy. I typed as fast as I could on my laptop and clicked send when I was done. •Samantha we are never in a million fucking years gonna date. You were a good fuck buddy while it lasted.• I clicked out of her account and just went through the feed. I kept scrolling and scrolling until one picture caught my eyes and I nearly threw my laptop across my room. It was a picture of Ace and Lilly kissing in her hospital room. The picture was taken by some girl named Rebecca who went to our school and it seemed like she was a volunteer nurse there. I slammed my laptop shut and sat it down on my desk. I laid there on my bed looking up at the ceiling with many thought clouding my brain. The main thought that clouded my brain was Lilly. I thought forgetting about her would be easy like those whores back in Puerto Rico, but honestly I was completely wrong. I don't like that Ace kid either. Something about him just doesn't seem right. His story makes me wonder and now that I know he's in a gang I wonder if Lilly knows that. It wouldn't matter though. Every single best friend of her's hates me so I can't tell them. I shook my head. I don't give a fuck about Lilly Ryder. I repeated that as much times as I needed in my head to get it through to me. I decided I wanted to sleep so I turned off my lamp, set my alarm, and got comfortable in my king sized mattress. I wiggled under the blankets and snuggled into them. I let out a loud yawn and finally drifted off to my only escape of hell also known as my life; sleep.
