Quarterback Sneak
exactly why she was the quiet girl who sat in the corner and minded her own business. She didn’t do things like this…like them. It would be a cold day in hell before she let herself become them.

    That thought had her feet caring her away from the girls before she realized what was happening. As if by some sick twist of fate, she could hear the girls squeal. Alceo was coming. The knot in her stomach exploded. Her hands started to shake, but she was thankful for her legs propelling her forward even if her mind couldn’t come up with one coherent thought. They could have him if they wanted him. That’s probably what he really wanted anyway.
    ----

    Alceo rushed from the locker room, not paying any attention to anyone. All he could think about was Galynn, standing outside in the freezing cold waiting for him. The thought warmed his insides and forced him to move faster as he showered off. He may have forgotten to wash behind his ears or between his toes, but he had other things on his mind.

    When he burst from the locker room and out into the cold, he was hoping to be warmed by Galynn’s smile, the smile she reserved just for him. Instead he was chilled by the voices he could hear as they traveled through the tunnel.

    His stomach dropped. FUCK! He had completely forgotten about the Celt Cunts. He hadn’t come up with the name, but it seemed appropriate. They always waited around like hungry vultures trying to snag a player and ride the gravy train. If there was one part of football he hated, it was this. Truly the girls were cunts. No substance, no personalities, just a warm hole to fuck and half the time, it wasn’t even any good. Of course, there was the occasional one that surprised him, but that didn’t happen anymore. It hadn’t happened in awhile and definitely not since he met Galynn.

    He ran faster, bags in tow as he tried to get to her before they did. They were the last people he wanted her talking to.

    ---

    Galynn’s heart was beating nearly out of her chest as she heard the girls yell out to Alceo. She was terrified that he would come after her; she was even more terrified that he wouldn’t. For all she was worth, she started to recite the Star Spangled Banner, anything to keep the tears flowing from her eyes, but she couldn’t remember the words. She tried to tell herself she wasn’t listening for him to strike up a conversation with his fan club, but the thought made her hiccup with sadness. Instead she lowered her head and forged on.

    She couldn’t help but think what a fool she was. Was she blowing this out of proportion? Was she over reacting? Galynn had never been in this position before so she honestly couldn’t tell.

    The sound of rushing footsteps approached her faster than she thought possible, and part of her was overjoyed at the sound of the girls shouting his name, demanding that he come back to them. Strong hands gripped her arms from behind and stopped her progress. Galynn lowered her head in defeat.

    “What happened, what did they do?” Galynn’s eyes didn’t lift.

    “They didn’t do anything, I just got really cold. I just want to go home.” Galynn wanted to do more than that, but she wasn’t going to say that to him.

    “Please baby, look at me.” The word baby softened her and made her want to cry all the more but she swallowed back her tears and looked up at him. “Whatever they said wasn’t true. They are looking for a gravy train, and believe me; I am too smart for that. They will say anything to eliminate the competition.”

    Galynn could hear the girl’s shouts in earnest now, no doubt they were wondering why Alceo had passed them up for her, and Galynn said as much.

    “It’s cool, I understand.” It hurt her to say, but a part of her couldn’t let it go. “Your fan club awaits.” Galynn tried to step around him as she stood watching her with concerned eyes, but she wasn’t going to let this happen again. She wasn’t going to let her heart be
