Bummed Out

Bummed Out

Chapter 28

Maui's POV

The next day...

  Despite my injuries, the doctor clears me to resume my normal activities, well besides playing football of course. UGH. Most of the guys on the team have been making me fun of what happened to me. Them making fun of me isn't what's bothering me so much, it's how my injuries putting me out of practice and games. It's making me look bad. The longer I'm out, the less chances I have of earning the position of team captain by next year. I want to be team captain so badly. I've been working my ass off to prove my worth. I don't want all of my hard work to have been for nothing. At least I'm allowed to watch the practices. That's better than nothing I suppose. 

  I'm at practice now by the way. I'm sitting on a cold bench watching all of the drills and plays being demonstrated as well as listening to game strategy conversation. I even learn a bit about our opponents from tomorrow's game, which I'm totally bummed out that I don't get to play in because it sounds like it's going to be a great one. Jack senses that I'm bummed out because during breaks, which are every forty five minutes and last for fifteen minutes, he comes over to me and talks to me about anything and everything to take my mind off of not being able to practice and play in the game. "Maui, I know this sucks, but you're only going to be out for a few days hopefully. That's not as long as you think." I sigh. "I know. I'm just tired of getting shit on because of what happened. Tamatoa spread word to everyone that his cousin beat the shit out of me. I'm now the laughing stock of campus." 

  I look down at the ground sadly. "Tamatoa is a coward Maui. If he had any balls whatsoever, he'd face you himself, not send his cousin after you to do the dirty work." I simply nod because I'm feeling emotional right now and I don't want anyone to see me burst into tears like a wimp. I know I'm not a wimp, but I'd feel like one if they all saw me expressing my emotions publicly. To be honest, the only person I'm comfortable letting it all out in front of is Mo. I've done it so many times before that it doesn't phase either of us when we're together. Plus she knows how to tame me whenever my inner beast wants to come out. I need to go see her after practice is over. I won't be able to relax otherwise. 

After practice...

  I get up and start to limp off the field with Jack when Tamatoa blocks our path. I'm going to fucking kill him. He's made my life hell for no reason. Jack does the talking for us. "What do you want Tamatoa? You already had a number done on Maui by your stupid cousin. Leave us alone for just one day." He laughs evilly. "I'm glad Maui's suffering. The asshole deserves what's been coming to him. As for leaving you alone, there's just no fun in that." He's trying to provoke me but I'm too drained to be a smart ass for once. I simply push past him and limp my way to Moana's dorm. I hear Jack give him a few last choice words before catching up with me. "I really wish they'd expel that asshole." I snort. "Yeah me too but they never will. Everyone seems to worship the ground that he walks on. They probably even kiss it too." He nods in agreement and sighs. 

  We walk the rest of the way in silence. Jack texted Mo for me to tell her that I was coming. Her classes are already done for the day. I told her that if she's doing homework right now that I could wait until later to come by, but she insisted that I come immediately. I give Jack a gentle bro hug before knocking on Mo's door. It flies open a minute later to reveal a concerned Mo. Thankfully it's just Mo in here right now. I like Ariel, but I really don't want her to see me fall apart like I'm about to. Mo looks at me in concern. I open my mouth to try to respond but nothing comes out. A giant lump forms in my throat and before I can do anything about it, I'm crying in Mo's arms. Her small body is sheltering me from the dangers of the world. She doesn't say anything to stop me. She simply holds me while I let out my ugly cries. When I'm calm enough to talk, she helps me sit down on her bed, keeping an arm wrapped around me.

  "Maui, I went to deal with Tamatoa this morning... though I went alone." I look at her as if she's lost it. "YOU DID WHAT??!!! MO WHY?"  She winces at my angry tone of voice. "Jack was busy this morning and I didn't want to worry you. Also,  I wanted to give it one last try to knock any sense into that asshole. As expected, I failed. Though I did manage to use the dirt of him and Jack's drunken mistake at the party against him. For the first time ever, I saw genuine fear from him. The reason why he's making fun of you so much is because he's scared that I'll expose him and everyone will think that he's gay. To be honest, I'm thinking of exposing him anyway." My expression softens and I take her hands in mine, stroking them gently. "I say do it." She grins at me mischievously. I hardly see this side of her, but I find it so hot. "I want to Maui, but I don't want to ruin Jack's reputation, only Tamatoa's. 

   I furrow my brows in concentration and light up when I remember the pic that Jack send me of Tamatoa sucking a dick. "Mo, Jack sent me a picture of him Tamatoa sucking a dick. It's super disgusting, but it doesn't show anyone's face in the picture other than his. It'd be the perfect picture to post." She squeals and grabs my phone, immediately posting it on the university's social media website. Almost immediately, it gets hundreds of reactions and comments. Her and I high five one another. "Good thinking Mo." She winks at me. "Good thinking to you too Maui. Say, this calls for celebration." I smirk at her. "Does it now? What would this celebration consist of?" Mo flashes me an innocent but lustful look. "Why my lips on yours of course." I pretend to consider it. "Your lips on my mouth. That sounds nice." She makes an "mmm" sound before crashing her lips onto mine. I kiss her back passionately and slightly rough, but not too rough due to my current physical state. It's a good end to a bad day. 

   We pull apart for a moment and press our foreheads against one another. "I love you so much Mo." An adorable blush creeps onto her face as well as a breathtaking smile. "I love you too Maui. You know, one day you're going to propose to me and I'm going to say yes." I raise an eyebrow at her jokingly. "Is that so?" She pulls me closer to her and looks into my eyes deeply. "Yes Maui." My heart begins racing faster than it ever has in my life.
