One In A Million

Chapter 13

14/08/2014 - Marco's House

Robin and Marcel arrived at Marco’s house earlier than the scheduled time.  But for Marco it wasn't a problem at all, the opposite, he was so glad to have them, so they could spend a few more hours together.  It was Marco's last night in Dortmund, and organizing something with his pals a night before his departure was always like a sacred ritual.  The boys have cooked delicious smashed potatoes, grilled chicken Robin’s specialty, he was given “Mr Grill” nickname, as he was such an expert at it, and Marcel and Marco did the rest, that was  the potatoes and the green salad.  While preparing diner they talked about all and nothing, laughed at some silly jokes and drank beers, and it went like this during all the diner.  But their boys party wouldn't be a real party without their famous PS4 Fifa game.  They could spend hours at pressing hungrily the PS controller, to score the most perfect goal, or make their players run faster, also to perform a perfect tackle on the opponent.  Thse boys were so really addicted and attached to their PS and football games. 

--- Marco was pressing angrily the buttons of his controller, cursing Marcel everytime that this one was tackling him and getting the ball back, thus making Marco even angrier.  "You fucking cunt" Marco yelled when Marcel made the player of his team Rio Ferdinand to score, making the score at his adavantage with a 3-1.  It wasn't a secret to everyone, Marco might was the magic one on the pitch, putting the ball wherever he always wanted to, scoring how he wanted, but at PS Fifa, he still had a lot of progresses to make.  Marco kept on mumbling and tried to keep his focus on the game, but he could felt the sight of his friends were mainly focussed of him, specially because of his iritated mood.  Marcel even stopped playing for a while, and Robin kept on staring at his friend with weird eyes. 

"Hey bro, what's the matter." Marcel asked curiously

"Nothing..." Marco mumbled, swallowing a few sips of beer from the bottle.

"Oh come on bro, this nothing sounds more like you have a problem  otherwise you wouldn't behave like a girl who's having pre menstrual mood swings and a high level of oestrogen in her blood system ." Robin said funnily, causing Marcel to laugh, and Marco to smirk with his usual crooked smile.

“WTF Robin, shut up with your oestrogen thing.” Marco replied, swallowing her beer and get back at pressing the PS controller.

“I won’t continue this game if you don’t tell us what’s wrong, because yes obviously since that morning you are in a very bad mood.” Marcel pointed out.  Marco stopped looked at both of his friends and sighed.  He knew he couldn’t hide them anymore this thing that was bothering his mind and mood. 

“It’s Brooke…” Marco said breathing heavily.  His two friends looked at each other, Robin shrugging his shoulders.

“Yes… and…?” Robin continued, this one getting more and more interested by the situation, wanting to know what happened.

“We kissed….” Marco said with a satisfied smile, his eyes focused on the marbled floor, his mind lost, surely remembering this sweet kiss he has shared with her.
