Finally found you

Part 17

Few years later

“Dude calm down. We got this okay?” My teammate tapped on my shoulder and encouraged me to keep playing. With only one minute left for the game to end I had no time to think. With everything that I had in me I ran as fast I could. Dodging my opponents I took my position and shot the ball towards the goal post. I watched as it slammed against the net. Goalllll!!!!!!!!!!!! The crowd cheered on. My teammates immediately lifted me up and began chanting my name. Virat Virat Virat. The referee blew the whistle indicating end of our game and I looked at the score board with pride. Cornell 1, Harvard 0. For the first time in history Cornell beat Harvard and I couldn’t have been happier.

Later in the locker room the boys were still chanting my name. Virat Virat Virat they cheered on and I just laughed at them. One of my teammates patted on my back and congratulated me, “Bro you rocked today. Man of the match bro. Damn good.” After a quick celebration we all headed to shower and get ready for the night.

To celebrate our big victory, the cheerleading team had organized a pool party at their sorority house and everyone was damn excited for it. I mean who wouldn’t- booties and booze we are all about that life. To say the party was hot would be an understatement. With semi naked chicks asking you to take shots off their belly button, clinging on to you like second skin the party was scorching. I was seated by the pool with a bunch of ladies feeling my abs and giggling. “Virat lets go find a room.” One of the blondes whispered in my ear. “Later baby.” I winked at her.

“No you are not going with her.” Someone yelled from behind and I turned around to see Sara. The thing with Sara is that she thinks that the world belongs to her. She is damn gorgeous and captain of the cheerleading team. Sara has this uncanny ability to get what she wants. She immediately strode towards me and pulled me in for an intense make out session. I was about to ask her to back off but damn she is irresistible. I groaned against her mouth and she smiled with satisfaction to see the effect she had on me. “You are only mine.” She pulled me towards her and seductively wrapped her legs around my hips. To be honest I don’t have any feelings for Sara but I’m a guy and there is only so much I can resist. I immediately lifted her up and took her inside the house. We stayed in her room all night and I have to admit she is damn good in bed.

Next day all of us guys were outside the main campus building. Some of the cheerleaders were with us too and in plain terms we were just ‘hanging out.’

“Viraaatttt.” Sara pouted and walked towards me. I have hooked up with this girl couple of times and that is the only reason I tolerate her constant whining. We are not dating, hell no, still she constantly nags me. “When are you taking me out on a date?” When the world will end and when you stop slutting around, I wanted to say instead I went for a simpler answer “How about never?” My friends laughed at my answer whilst she glared at me. “Don’t’ annoy me Virat. I’m already in a bad mood.” I wanted to tell her that I didn’t care and to shut up so I did exactly that. “Sara cut it out. Your mood is always down. Nothing new there.”

I swear I have insulted this girl so many times that too in front of my friends yet she won’t stop nagging me. “Baby lets go back to your place.” She said seductively. I swear I have never seen anyone so desperate. “Sara I’m chilling with my friends. Leave me alone.” I tell her sharply. I turn around to talk to one of the girls sitting next to me but Sara grabs my collar and literally forces herself onto me. What the hell!

I grab her hand and push her off me. “What do you want?”

“You.” She grins shamelessly and I just glare at her. “Oh common Virat I need a distraction. The coach just said that a new girl will be joining our cheerleading team.”

I raise an eyebrow at her and question her, “Since when did you start becoming so insecure? Didn’t you tell us last week that you are the best?” With Sara when it comes to her competitors she has always believed that no one can beat her. Twirling her hair with an attitude she replied, “I am the best Virat. But this bitch is transferring from Columbia and coach says she is damn good. That bastard told me that if I don’t cut down on my attitude this new bitch might take my spot.”

I can’t believe I just wasted 5 minutes of my life listening to this crap. To send her packing and away from here I comforted her, “Listen don’t worry about it. I’m sure this new girl is no good.” Sara’s pet, Annie, too comforted her. “Yes honey you are the best. As far as this new bitch goes we will make her life a living hell.”

Both Annie, Sara and some of the other cheerleaders looked at us for support. Frankly speaking us guys couldn’t care less. If this new chick is hot I’m going to hit on her and get her to sleep with me. As if he heard my thoughts, my teammate Seth immediately answered “Girls chill. We don’t care about your petty fights. If this new chick is hot I’m getting laiddddd.” He turned towards me and challenged me, “Virat lets set a challenge. Lets see who bangs this new chick first. Done?” I rolled my eyes at him, “You can never beat me Seth.” Sara whined again, “Viraatttt.” I winked at her and told her the truth, “I can do you both. I have enough stamina.” Surprisingly she didn’t get offended, instead she sat on my lap and began kissing my neck. Talk about self-esteem. Now I’m intrigued, who is this new girl. She better be hot. Well if she is one of the cheerleaders then I bet she is smoking.

“So when is this girl getting here?” One of the guys asked. Annie, Sara’s puppet/pet whatever you call her, immediately answered “Like right now. Coach wants us to introduce her to all of you. Cara is off to bring her here from the house.” Cara is also one of the cheerleaders and by house she meant their sorority house. All the cheerleaders live in one house and belong to the same sorority. I bet all of us soccer players have snuck in the sorority house at least once to hook up with the hot cheerleaders.

I was here with the boys, Sara on my lap doing what she does best, making out with me when suddenly my heart started to beat really fast. Maybe I’m getting sick or something. I pull away from Sara but she doesn’t let go and she continues to sit on my lap. I can’t really explain what I’m feeling right now. My heart is thumping so loud that I feel like it can be heard miles away.

“There is Cara and that bitch.” Sara says irritably looking behind me. From the looks of it, the new girl along with Cara were walking towards us. I couldn’t see them as my back was facing them but I heard the guys whistle. Seth immediately looked at me and warned me, “Virat she is smoking. You better leave this one out she is mine.” Sara too looked at the girl and was burning with jealousy, “She is not that pretty Seth. I am hundred times better.” Everybody was going off about this new girl but my head was somewhere else. I couldn’t concentrate on anything because my heart was not ready to listen. There was this sinking feeling or loud thumping in my heart and I couldn’t really explain it. Maybe I’m getting a heart attack.

As Cara and the new girl walked towards us I smelled a familiar perfume. The sweet perfume was familiar but I couldn’t really place a finger on it. The smell made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside like I had been missing it all along. If my heart was acting crazy before now it literally went haywire. I had no control over it and the fruity smell made it worse. Suddenly it felt like my heart wasn’t mine anymore. What the hell is going on? Should I call 911 but what am I supposed to tell them? They will have me committed to a mental institute for sure. Sara snuggled closer to me and sensuously kissed my neck. I am getting a heart attack here I wanted to scream.

“Guys here she is.” Cara exclaimed loudly. “That is Jake, Scott, Tebbe, Mariah, Laura, Justina, Jeff, Jamie,…” Cara went on and introduced the girl to everyone. Sara raised her palm and haughtily introduced herself, “I’m Sara, captain of the cheerleading team.” Pointing towards me she said, “and he is the captain of the soccer team. Off limits for you.” If I was myself I would have yelled at Sara but I was too busy diagnosing my disease. I shifted Sara a little and turned around to get a look of this new girl with the familiar smell.

“Guys this is..” Cara was just about to introduce the new girl when I said “Manvi.”

“You know her?” Everyone looked at me completely shocked.

I couldn’t believe my eyes. It really was her. She disappeared on me years ago and it broke my heart. I spent days waiting by the phone not to forget the sleepless nights. Why is she here? Even after all these years it hurts me immensely to see her beautiful face. She looked no less than an angel with her soft curls and dark brown eyes. The sundress complimented her figure and the light make up only enhanced her beauty. Damn she’ll be the death of me. I hate you Manvi but I hate myself more for letting you affect me. I immediately pulled Sara towards me and kissed her passionately. Lifting her up I whispered, “My room now.”
