The Sideline

9: Called out

I woke up to the sweet smell of syrup and the savory scent of bacon. As I felt around the bed there was no one there, and I assumed it was Sean cooking up these delicious aromas. I rubbed the tired out of my eyes and slid out of bed.

As I made my way to the kitchen, my eyes landed on Ugo, who was turned away from me by the stove. I walked up behind him, snaking my arms around his waist and planting kisses all over his neck. He turned his head toward mine with a warm smile and kissed my lips softly.

"Good morning," I grabbed a glass and filled it with water. " Why are you up so early cooking breakfast?"

He chuckled and looked at the clock on the stove. "It's 10 o'clock," he looked back at me. "I thought I'd make breakfast for my boyfriend since he was so kind to make me breakfast last week," he teased.

Sean had been over to my place a lot and he knew where everything was, so it wasn't weird for him to be cooking, and I didn't mind it. I smiled to myself and sat down at the kitchen stools.

"So we have practice tonight, and the thing with the clothing company..." he paused. "And I don't quite think the boys caught on to our excuses about the pub, and what went down that night." He explained.

"Well, we know Jimmy, Andrew, and Eric, know about us," I stated. "And we trust them so no need to worry, but I do see what you mean. I don't think a couple of them believed us."

He shook his head. "Yeah like Jamie. We have to be careful about him finding out."

"Oh whatever, if he has a problem than he can take it up with me." I said a little angry.

"Well we don't know how it's gonna go until the meeting. We might just be paranoid." He mentioned and I nodded.

We both ate breakfast and got ready for the day. Ugo had a few shirts here and a pair of jeans that I washed for him, so he just changed into those. We had to go to a type of 'photo shoot' for a clothing company a few hours before practice, and we were about to head to it. Basically the whole team would be there, including Jamie.

"All ready?" I said as I wiped my face with a towl and turned to Ugo.

He nodded and we made our way out to the car. The sun was beating down, and the sky was a light blue brushed with thin, white clouds. I slid on my sunglasses and we drove off to the shop.

As we got to the shop, we saw that Jimmy and Pat were the only ones there. We were early and the photographers were still setting up. Ugo and I went over to talk to Jimmy and Pat before the event started.

When everyone got there, we talked, and tried on clothes, then took pictures.

Ugo and I were both done with our pictures, and we were standing watching Andrew have his pictures done when Sean nudged my thigh. I looked at him and he started walking away so I followed him.

After walking down the back hallway, he opened a random door and pulled me in by my hand. After closing the door, he pinned me aginst it and started kissing me intensely.

"I've been waiting to do this the whole time." He said breaking away from the kiss and pulling me back in with his hand at the base of my neck.

I parted my lips, giving him more access into the kiss. His hard member pressed against my thigh and I softly moaned into his lips. He pressed it harder against me and moaned. I pushed him back against the desk that was in the room while still kissing him. I started to unbutton his pants before I pulled away from the kiss and looked at him to make sure it was okay. It wasn't our first time or anything, but I still wanted to make sure he was okay with doing this in a random office in a public place.

He nodded and I continued unzipping his pants while kissing his neck. He pulled his pants down and took them off as I pulled down his underwear.

Sean was moaning and cursing under his breath the whole time I was going down on him. I could tell he was trying to be quiet in case anyone heard, and I knew it was a challenge.

He finished and we used tissues that were on the desk to clean up. I fixed my hair and Sean put his pants back on before we walked out of the room. As we were walking out I saw Jamie. I made eye contact with him, but before I could acknowledge that he turned around and went back around the corner.

I cursed under my breath and turned to Ugo. "Shit, he saw us." I whispered.

"Maybe he didn't think anything of it." He tried to shrug it off.

I shook my head. "Maybe," and we walked back into the main room where everyone was.

No one thought anything of us leaving because we were done with what we had to do. But as we walked in Jamie looked at both of us with a weird expression. Almost disgust or disappointment. I broke the eye contact and shrugged him off. He never was really a good friend of mine, so I knew he wouldn't confront me about anything.

We stayed until the rest of the guys were done, because we had a meeting afterwards. John was just going to have a little talk with us at the clothing store since we were already all together and they didn't open until the next day.

John was going over the plan for the week and any events coming up. It didn't last long and shortly we were all free to go. Ugo, Jimmy, Andrew, Eric, and I were talking before everyone left.

We were in the middle of the conversation when I looked over and saw Jamie in a what looked like, a heated conversation with John.

"Whatever. If they're not gone, then I am." His voice grew louder. "I refuse to be on a team with a bunch of f*gs!!! I quit!" He screamed.

John's face grew confused. "Who are you even talking about?" He said in a calmer, yet annoyed tone.

"Oh come on," he laughed. "You now who I'm talking about. They're always hanging around and flirting, touching each other. Disgusting" he declared.

My heart was racing and his words stung. I didn't care what he said but I couldn't help but let the words get to me.

John shook his head. "Fine. If you want to leave...then go. I'm not gonna stop you."

At this point everyone was watching. Ugo moved closer to me and touched his arm against mine. I knew he wanted to hold my hand but it just wasn't the right time. I looked over to him, worried.

Jamie stormed out without a look in our direction. This is horrible, now the whole team knows, I thought.

John turned to everyone who was still here and took a deep breath. "We will further discuss this at practice. For now let's all go home." And he walked out.

I turned to Ugo and the other boys with my eyes wide. "What just happened?"

Eric shrugged. "Was he talking about us or you?" He questioned.

Sean spoke up. "He saw us coming out of the back room together like half an hour ago."

Andrew raised his eyebrows. "Oh." He was still at a loss for words.

Eric whispered something into Andrews ear before he told us, "Okay, well take the fall for you. Well tell the team that it was us and that way they still won't suspect a thing from you." He looked at Ugo and I.

"It's not like we'd be lying, Andrew and I are really together ." Added Eric.

I turned to Ugo. "You'd really do that for us? You don't care?"

"We'd be glad to."

"Thank you so much man." I hugged him and Eric.

We shortly all left and I dropped Ugo off so he could get ready for practice.

This was going to be something.
