"I love him," I whisper "So much that it terrifies and exhilarates me at the same time"

Demi’s soft smilein her eyes, speaking volu a word

"He loves you too" Her statement makes my smile It has as much certainty in it as if you were to state that the sky is blue and know that without a doubt it’s true

"Are you ready to go?" she asks in her next breath, clapping and bouncing on her feet excitedly Her enthusias to bounce and clap right along with her

I nod and we head out the door,lot is ale to find a spot in the corner Fans are hovering everywhere, creating a noticeable jolt of anticipation in the ats instinctively increases and I find uy with sandy blonde hair and a lean, nize the my way towards the stadium entrance with Deht, looking bright eyed and bushy tailed There isn’t an open seat anywhere, save for the people still entering the stadium My nerves twist and turn in ht in front of the fifty yard line Of course Grayson would have gotten us two of the best seats; he’ll want to be able to seeabout aet hurt, that will be

The noise dies down and the announcers’ voice booh the speakers It becoold to run onto the field When the heads of our tea out of the tunnel, pandes onto the field with his tea his teanize My eyes travel the length of his body, stopping a bit longer where the hs I never understood why girls swooned over the way a football player looks in his unifors to Graysons’ skin and shows off every rows and heat pools between s around his lean waist while his legs tense with each thrust is enough tois purely ani at him and he shts, especially when they’re about hilint in his eyes, he knohat I’rin seductively and blow hi when he pretends to catch it and throw one back , I love every side of my complicated man

The other teaet into position Despite knowing next to nothing about this sport, I’m excited to see Grayson in action I look tofrom Demi’s mouth as she watches Brody When I look back at the field, it’s just in time for the first play Brody snaps the ball to Grayson, who calls out a play, and passes the ball to one of his wide receivers He then runs in the opposite direction, while his linemen run in front of him, and catches the ball thrown back from the wideout The crowd screae before the other teams’ defense intercepts the by three points but knowing Uncle Alex, he’ll definitely have a trick or two up his sleeve The half time whistle blows and the teams head back towards their locker rooms Grayson catchesI walk towards him as he hops onto the cement block on the other side of the rails and when I reach hi htens the rush I feel as our lips and tongues collide Cheers and whistles come from behind me but I’m too preoccupied to care Grayson pulls away, aware that he doesn’t have awatt sht of him makes my knees want to buckle but I hold on to his shirt like it’s a lifeline

"I’irl," he breathes, trying to catch his breath I return his sht in my belly

"Win for me, and I’ll make sure you’re rewarded," I tease wickedly I lean in close, whispering in his ear, "I’m ready for you to strip me out of this shirt and take me from behind"

I cheer myself on inwardly when I lean back to look into Graysons’ eyes and see the flashes across his face He loves it when I talk dirty and I know it’s a fantasy of his to see me on my hands and knees while he takes me from behind A shiver of anticipation travels downthe butterflies on fire andmy body feel ablaze

I kiss him one last time before he jumps down in a daze and disappears into the tunnel I turn around and head back todaggers at lare head-on Yes bitch, he’s ladly accept it before turning to face the field Bring it on bitch

"What the hell was that all about?" Demi asks next to le when I see her scowl Her face scrunches up like a bull dog and I have to cover nore her," I say through ue and turns to face me with a serious expression on her face "If I were you, I’d keep Grayson far, far away froet back with him"

"I really hope we don’t see her at the party"

Before I can overthink De back onto the field When our eyes meet he winks at me and my skin prickles at his silent pro away, but I can see his focus and deterether briefly before taking their positions on the field and getting theame

When the whistle blows and Brody snaps the ball to Grayson, my eyes follow his every ain, wondering if there’s any truth behind her warning What if Haley does show up the party and tries so with Grayson? Hoill he react? More importantly, hoill I react?

The crowd around s me back to the presentthem a chance to actually win

With five minutes left in the second half, the score still re to Grayson and his hands ives a stern nod of his head and relays whatever it is Uncle Alex said to hioes quiet as ith baited breath to see who’s going to win the gae to cover lued to Grayson
