Not So Perfect

Chapter 10

Karrie's

I have never set my foot on this big gymnasium since I transferred here. It actually surprised me that the gymnasium was huge and it was even fully furnished, but still we don't have our locker.

That thought made me smile. I quickly turned my face neutral again as I continued to walk to the center. Honestly, I don't know what I should do next. Apollo told me earlier that we will be seeing here inside the gymnasium and it didn't cross my mind to ask him at where spot? Just great.

I could feel the hot glares from the other side of the court, their jersey was different from what I was wearing so I assumed that these guys must be Apollo's opponent.

I was abruptly halted from my walking when I accidentally bumped to a hard chest.

"Ooh, I'm sorry, are you okay?"

I heard the person asked me, his voice was very manly. I slowly looked at his face, he was so tall that I even have to tilt my head so I could connect to his dark black eyes.

"Miss, are you okay?"

He said while smirking. I felt his palm on my left shoulder when he asked me again and it helped me to wake up from my reverie. I showed him my twitching smile, that was the very least I could do from my silence earlier.

"Yeah, yeah. I'm okay."

I seductively touched my hair and clipped it behind my left ear.

"That's good to hear. By the way, I'm Jason."

He offered me his right hand. I did not realize that we were actually so closed that I could even feel his breath fanning my cheeks.

"Karrie, Karrie ---"

I was about to finish my whole name and also in the middle of accepting his hand when suddenly, I was forcefully pulled away from Jason's side. I was taken aback as I saw the person who did it, it was Apollo.

"Dy, Karrie Dy is her name."

He said and snaked his arms in my hips. He was smiling brightly that I could not even see his eyeballs now.

"Are you ... Are you siblings?"

Jason asked us as he alternately pointed his forefinger towards us. I was going to correct what Apollo said when I felt his grasp tightened and halted me from my words.

"No, she's my wife now."

He said calmly and lead me away from Jason. I saw how the jaw of his face actually dropped terribly after what Apollo said to him, he was not the only person that was fazed from his words. I, myself was also a victim.

I fell silent from Apollo's statement as he guided me to the red chairs on the side of the court.

"What are you doing?"

He snapped at me. His voice was low however it was still enough for me to hear his words. There were still people passing around us so he was trying his best to keep his voice down.
My eyebrows formed into a deep furrow.

"Hell no. What are you doing? The guy just wanted to know me and you came all of a sudden and ruined everything."

I said to him with a whole voice. I could not shout so I tried to make my voice bold so it would sound convincing.

"Are you saying that I am interrupting your flirtatious life?"

He bent forward so he could level his eyes to mine. He was looking at me intensely, that kind of stare enough to melt your skin from your face. I suddenly become conscious and quickly looked away. I try to blink few times before I muster my voice again to reply.

"Kinda, and FYI I cannot remember we tackled about this shit before, so this basically means I'm free to do it so fuck off dickhead."

I told him and pointed my forefinger to his hard chest, pushing him in every word I said.

"Well, we will now. I don't mind if you want to fuck boys out from nowhere but please, not him, not my opponents."

He huffed and turned his back from me. What does he mean I can fuck anybody but not his opponents? Does he really cares for them and why that so?

I took a few long strides so I could keep up with his walk.

"Why are you so mad? Jason is not part from the other team."

I folded my left arm and brought my right arm to my chin, acting like I was thinking something.

As far as I could remember it, he was not wearing any jersey but I was sure he was wearing leggings. Apollo come to a sudden halt after he heard what I said.

"Well, he is. Jason is the team captain of Holy Name University, our arch rival for decades now. We lose from them 2 straight season and today, we want to have our redemption. That's why you can't fuck him."

He told me in a firm tone, this guy was getting serious. Apollo was keeping repeating about me fucking people, like the hell I will gonna do it. I could clearly see the knots on his forehead as he continued to walk and was about to leave me in a second time around. I quickly walked with his pace.

"Why not? I don't give shit about your rivalry thingy, you are not making any sense!"

I teased him. My reply was clearly to annoy him, it was actually funny seeing him a bit frustrated. He paused and glared at me one more time. He was not laughing, sending me a serious aura from his face. He suddenly hold both of my forearms and stared straight to my eyes.

"Drop the conversation because I won't change my mind."

I could feel his nails in my skin, I thought any minute from now my arms will bleed. I become unease and I tried to hold his wrist from me.

"Okay, okay. You win."

I surrendered. I actually wanted to prolong my teasing for him but we were catching attention from the people inside the gymnasium. I felt my body relaxed when he freed my hands from his grips.

"Where is my seat?"

I asked him as I touched the marks of his palms in my skin. I was not hurt though but maybe if I still insist, I probably has cuts now.

"What are you wearing."

He asked me instead. He held the jersey above my shoulder. He was showing me that look saying: 'Are you fuck?'

"Yours?"

"What did you do to it?"

He said to me with eyes wide.

"I probably washed it in the laundry shop earlier, I don't want to wear that navy blue jersey if it's real color was sky blue."

I told him feeling gross remembering the color of water as it was rolling inside the washing machine. Just eew.

"Because it has a sentimental value for me. Jessa used to wear that when we were still together, I gave that to her when I first saw her watching my game and she just returned this to me last week. She has still her scent on it."

He said to me and held the cloth; he was trying to sniff it and he fell dissapointed when it has my own perfume now.

"Oh my god, don't tell me that was her smell because I have this pretty strong feeling that you wore it like most of the times until it turned to be like that."

I fold my hands and rolled my eyes, he was probably using that excuse so he could not wash it. Such a lame reason.

"I should have not let you wear it. I know it was a bad idea."

He said to me feeling piss.

"Ahmmm... Excuse me, do you mind if I have a quick interview to Apollo?"

We both look to each other and become astonish from where we were standing, I felt that presence again and I will never be mistaken when it comes for this nerd.
