The after-party roars with victory, but the night’s adrenaline is somehow tempered by whispers of scandal again. Every headline from major magazines and hushed whispers in the locker room all say one thing: the legend football captain Alicent Hightower is “romantically” involved with the newest member of her team. Yes, it’s the talented rookie with notorious temper issues.

But everyone knows Alicent as the “perfect” player, the Queen of the field who’s respected by teammates and opponents alike. That’s why the rumor can only be described as a terrible smear campaign, something that sells headlines but also too stupid to be true. Seriously, anyone with a functioning frontal lobe knows Alicent is too careful to risk her career for something that reckless. 

Except it’s all true. Throwing precautions out the window to play this game of “I’m not in love, but I can prove that you are” is beyond foolish, but what’s the harm in having a little fun?

And tonight is no different, because instead of celebrating the season’s biggest win with the rest of the team you decided to ditch after the afterparty — all because Alicent sent you a message to “meet her in the bathroom in 10 minutes”. 

But honestly, who are you to deny her request?

The oversized bathroom door opens after a couple of gentle knocks, revealing your captain team standing on the other side. She glares at you quietly, stepping to the side to let you in. 

“What took you so long?” She murmurs, her expression unamused as she closes the door behind her.
