The Brooks

Chapter 29

Alexa's Pov

Thank goodness today I had basketball practice. I don't even know if I want to play football anymore. I closed my locker and slid down my locker to start doing homework. Like always.

Well you know that was until some tenth grade girls walked by.

"Are you Alexa Brooks?" One asked.

"Oh uh yeah." I said looking up from my computer.

"Ooh can we please have your autograph?" Another one asked excitedly.

I smiled.

"Ok." I said.

I gave them each my autograph.

"Thank you." They said.

"No prob." I said.

They walked off smiling and I sighed. How much longer does this bullshit go on?

I heard the bell ring and I walked to class seeing Eli on the way and I looked down pretending I was reading.

"Alexa." Elisha said.

"I swear to God you need to move your hand or I will break your hand and then break your face." I said.

"I'm sorry." Elisha said.

"I don't give a shit anymore! I don't care. Because I trusted you. I trusted the whole team and I told you what happened and you did that. So I don't care anymore." I said.

"I know that's not true. You do care." Elisha said.

"Do I look like the type to lie? If I say I don't care I mean I. Don't. Care!" I yelled.

I stormed off tears leaving my eyes.

Fucking hell I'm missing first period.
****************
As lunch came I sat went off campus for my own lunch.

I went to chipotle even though it's expensive it was one of my favorite restaurants.

I ordered some food and ate alone. It was kind of weird but I didn't mind.

Once I was finished I threw it out and I walked back to campus.

That took 10 minutes but it was good exercise.

Once I got there it was 7th period in two minutes so I decided to quickly get my stuff from my locker for the last period and then go to class a little early.
***********
The period soon ended and coach cancelled practice so I had no where to be. Unless... no. I'm not going back there.

Not with Elisha there.

"This is stupid how can we practice without our own quarter back?" Elisha asked.

"Well if you didn't try to basically rape her maybe she'd still be here bitch!" John snapped.

"She'll be back guys." Coach said.

I sighed. Maybe I should just forget about it. But he did sexually assault me.

I don't know.

I decided to put on my uniform and go around back behind the school to watch.

I didn't even know what they were doing.

I think John. I don't know. Maybe John was playing quarter back as well since running back was kind of like quarter back but not exactly.

"Everyone take five." Coach said.

I sighed and walked back into school and to the locker room.

Well I really shouldn't let the whole team down.

Should I do this? No. Yes. No. Yes.

I sighed. Just open the door and take one step and I could have everything back. Football. Team. Coach. Games. As much as I say I hate the attention it'd be kinda weird without it.

But it'd be so awkward if I turned up out of the blue. Ok how about if I watch? It doesn't hurt to watch practice I mean Audrey does it. But I'm in my uniform.

"I'm not playing until Alexa comes back." I heard Jay say.

"Elisha you better fix this dip shit." John snapped.

"Hey I'm sorry ok?!" Elisha yelled.

"Well sorry is helpful. You fucking tired to steal my girlfriend. My girlfriend." Jay emphasized my. I chuckled at his behavior.

"I'm sorry ok?" Elisha said.

"Well if we don't have a quarter back we can't play next week. I can't play quarter back like she does." John said.

"Well you're gonna have to." Jay said.

I opened the door and peeked through. They weren't even doing anything.

"There's a game next week?" I whispered to myself.

A game.

If I'm not there... I don't even want to know what's going to happen to the team. But my safety matters to. But Elisha looked sincere when he said sorry.

I sighed and decided to go home.
