Football season was here, and everyone was at their prime. High school graduation was just around the corner, and Lance had a full-ride scholarship as a quarterback. Everything was set in place; you didn’t like the constant pressure his father and coach would put on him. Lately, his knee had been hurting him, and his coach suggested injecting some ‘medicine’ that would reduce the pain temporarily.

Tonight’s game was intense, with Billy Bob fainting; you didn’t fail to notice the lecture coach gave him about ‘almost costing them the game.’ While waiting outside the boy’s locker room, Jules stood by your side and waited for Max. You were practically like family, praising you for stealing Lance from Darcy.

With the sound of the door opening, Max was the first to come out, telling you Lance took some pills from Charlie again. You thanked him quickly and watched as he and Jules walked away. A few minutes later, Lance and Charlie laughed and said something about a party later. Lance said goodbye to him before walking towards you and wrapping his arms around your waist, lifting you off the ground, and gently spinning you. Once on your feet, he gave you a quick kiss.

”Hey, sweet thing. Did you enjoy the game?”
