Ice Breaker.. Can I Get With You?

Payton Can You Keep A Secret? part 2

I left the club early. I was so confused and mad at myself. I shouldn't be seeing my sisters friend as girlfriend material.. and I sure as hell shouldn't have kissed her and liked it. I walked to my car and wondered why I was sober. I was at club filled with hotties and all I could think about was that kiss and Payton. What was going on seriously.

I arrived home and found Jenna and Tyler along with Kiana and Alexander in the living room watching movies. I don't know how they can party all night and wake up with no hongover. Those four are serious weirdos. I walked into the room and sat on the arm chair. 

"Hey bro where's your puck bunny?" Tyler asked me while I sat down.

"No bunny tonight.." I said like it was the most normal thing in the world, at that moment all their eyes were on me. "I did meet this pretty cool chick but she had to get home." 

Jenna piped up at that moment,"Does this cool chick happen to go by the name of Payton Brookes?" 

I looked at her shocked.. how could she have known? 

"N-no.. her name was Leah something.." I stated matter of factly.

"Oh because I seen you pretty close to someone that resembled Payton, maybe it was just my imagination." Jenna said a knowing smile on her face.

"Yeah maybe." I said. 

I didn't want to get asked anymore questions so I got up and went to my room. I need to fix this whole thing with Payton.. maybe play it off as it meant nothing to me and tell her to keep it a secret.. yeah that sounds like the best thing to do.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I woke up to the smell of bacon being cooked. I got up went to the bathroom adn went downstairs to see Tyler making breakfast for everyone. 

"Hey bro what's cooking?" I asked sleepily.

"Bacon, eggs, waffles, and toast." Tyler told me. I knew he wanted to talk to me because he was alone, usually he'd have Jenna help him. 

I decided I'd start the conversation," So what's on your mind?" 

"hmm? Oh nothing I was just confused," he furrowed his eyebrows and looked at me." Why didn't you bring your usual puck bunny home?" 

"I just didn't feel the need for one." I said looking at him like it was the most obvious answer.

He looked at me in total disbelief,"That's weird you always have a puck bunny. But then I guess Payton isn't a puck bunny to you is she?"

I nearly choked on my orange juice. How do him and Jenna know all this stuff about me? "W-what? No I don't like Payton like that.. she's my little sisters friend!"

I really didn't wanna have this conversation now. Besides I was 100% sure Payton thought the same thing I did... the kiss was a mistake.

"Really bro we have a game today and I don't want to lose because of your little crush on Payton Brookes. You right this mistake or I will." Tyler stated a stern look on his face.

I sighed he was right I have to play the jerk role and tell Payton to keep everythhing a secret. 

---------------------------------------------------------------------

I arrived at the arena with half an hour before the game. I had to find Payton and tell her everything. I was used to hurting girls, but for some odd reason I didn't want to hurt Payton. I didn't like her. I know I don't like her. She isn't my type.. she's sporty and shy. Not a puck bunny. But what I planned on telling her felt so wrong to me, but it had to be done. I am Brodie Hunter, legend, and I NEVER have crushes or anything. Those only lead to heartache and I wasn't about to go through that.

I seen Jenna and Kiana walk into the arena, so I knew Payton wasn't far behind. Then she walked in looking cute in her jeans and bunny-hug.

Stop it Brodie. Man up and get this done. Here we go.

I walked up to her with a smirk on my face as the usual puck bunnies threw themselves at me. I enjoyed the attention but right now I didn't need it. I had to do this so I could play this game like the legend I am.

"Hey Payton can we talk for a minute?" I asked her in a hushed voice.

She looked so cute when she was confused. 

"Sure, why not?" She said while looking at the ground.

"Look I need you to keep our kiss and everything a secret.. okay?" I looked at her as her eyes shot from the floor to my eyes. 

Her brown eyes looked so beautiful.She kind of looked hurt.. she was definatly gonna hate me now. It took her a couple minutes to reply but when she did she brought her mouth to my ear like she was telling me a secret of her own.

"Sure as long as you keep this a secret.." she whispered in my ear.

"W-what secret do you ha-" I was cut off by a powerful punch in my stomach. Jesus that chick could hit. With that she walked off to probably find Jenna and Kiana. 

I don't know why I was shocked she hit me. What was I expecting.. a good luck hug? At least I was mad enough to take my anger out on the other team. I wasn't mad at Payton, she had every right to hit me.. I really was an ass. 

It's time to win.
