Too many of us are not living our dreams because we are living our fears. Les Brown.
Chapter 23.
Charlotte?
Suspense where much, my eyes where deem while staring at her's. It was obvious she didn't want me here considering all her glare. I couldn't say a word despite I wanted to.
I glanced around for a moment and brought my gaze back to her.
"You're alone!?" She asked.
I couldn't hear her probably with all this sounds but I could tell she said If I was alone.
My jaw clenched for a while.
"No!" I shouted back.
Her eyebrows where being raised. The question is what is she doing here, she is known to be fashionable not sporty.
"Hey Angela!" A guy had also snapped me and Charlotte. I peered to check, I stretched my eyes a little until I saw it was Liam and James behind.
They where a bit far but when they got closer I could definitely see how this boys where built, I never realized it because I haven't seen them in this outfit before, they where on shorts and a Huggy top.
"Where is Alex!" James asked.
Charlotte, James and Liam where all in my view now, they all snapped me from watching this game.
"I couldn't find him!" Charlotte said.
James who asked the question got a little bit confused.
"The question was for Angela, she came with Alex!?" He asked. I could feel the hot glare Charlotte had on me. I raised my gaze to James and nodded yes.
"She came with Alex? Why aren't I surprised, he always bring chicks here" Charlotte said. Her glare on me wasn't going anytime soon.
I was speechless.
They ignored her and said."We have been searching for him, where did he go!?" Liam asked. He was watching the game somehow.
I didn't also know where he went. I knew Ethan Called him earlier, he was probably supporting Ethan's theme that's what he told me. I also know he said he would be back but his taken decades.
I could not answer to their question.
"His with Ethan" I said. I was completely sure no one heard that.
"Did you say something!?" James asked.
I tried checking my temperature, did they think is easy to shout despite this noise. My head started aching, maybe because of this loud environment.
"His with Ethan!?" I shouted.
They all kept a surprised face, Charlotte also.
"Who is Ethan!?" Liam asked
Any sentenced he made wasn't heard because I believe a theme had just scored. I checked closely who had won. The crowd that where hailing Alex's team before weren't, that only means is the other theme winning.
I removed my gaze back.
"Who is Ethan!?" James said time. Who is Ethan?
This got me surprised, they didn't know who Ethan was. My face was all in confusion. I kept my mouth still.
"You don't know Ethan!?" I said, hoping I was mistaken.
James and Liam nodded. How is that possible. If could remember the first time I met Ethan he had told Alex the country side was boring, maybe that's why he isn't known to both James and Liam.
"Anyway, we would search for him around." Liam said. He tapped James and Charlotte, probably to leave.
"We are having a party tonight, love to come!?" James said. "Isa had told me your a party pooper but I assure, you would love this one."
"I will think about it" I said he smiled slightly. Liam had left but Charlotte wasn't going.
She was quiet, her glare wasn't on me anymore. My eyes most he lying to me, her glare could kill if possible and now she isn't staring anymore.
Watching the game quietly, I could see or hear Alex's team where leading. Two/ one.
"Are you and Alex, now couples?" She said, her voice was calm which got me surprised.
I raised my gaze to her she wasn't staring at me.
"Don't you think, the question is too personal" I didn't want to answer. She kept quiet still. That wasn't the Charlotte I know, she is definitely up to something.
Her voice wasn't heard for probably five minutes, till she said. "Alex isn't the relationship type, you should know" she clarified.
Between me and Alex, there is nothing. Am still confused where people get ideas from. I didn't answer to her comment.
My mind and body where just on the game, I lost all the happiness in me to give a shout-out to the winning team.... definitely Alex's team.
"Have any one told you this before?" She said.
I raised my gape to her and she was staring, giving me that fake smile she always put.
"What?" I asked, curious to know what she meant.
She laughed slightly before she said.
"Your too Naive Angela, watch your back" she said, immediately she walked out from the crowd.
I bit my lips hardly.
I bit my lips hardly.
Why is she always bitter.
I brought my gaze back to the game, I wondered where Alex could be. He was taking way too much time. I didn't want to think about, I just needed to enjoy the game.
The more I said I wouldn't think about it the more I do. Where is Alex.
The game had finished a second now and Alex wasn't still here. Alex team had won obviously.
I had to walk up to the front, where I didn't want to be before. I could see how the Winning team celebrates. People where going and I was coming that brought complications.
Finally I saw Ethan.
"Hey!" I said.
He turned and smiled. "I knew we would see again" he chuckled.
I smiled "Have you... seen Alex?" I asked.
His eyebrows where being raised. "You always look for him, don't you?" He said.
I bit my lips to his comment.
"If you ask, I don't know" Ethan clarified.
It was like a hit. I thought Alex came to meet with him, if he doesn't know where Alex is then where could he be.
"Desperate girlfriend" I heard a giggle from behind me, I spun just to see who it was. This jerk.
He giggles slightly.
"Stop calling me girlfriend or you might start believing it" I whispered to him. Didn't want Ethan hearing.
"Girlfriend" he whispers back. I rolled my eyes.
He kept his both hands on my shoulders as he was tall, my head couldn't reach his shoulders and that was really embarrassing. I tried moving away but he kept me still.
"He found you this time!" Ethan clarified. I smiled nervously. "I wondered if you two are now couples?" He said.
I raised my eyebrows.
"I cheered for your team, that's the least I could do. This is personal" Alex snapped. I could assure you I wanted to answer to Ethan's question.
Ethan smiled wierdly and said. "I would never stop thanking, coming for the party tonight?" Ethan asked.
"No" Alex said. My brows raised all of a sudden.
"And I thought you where fun" Ethan said but brought his gaze down to me and said. "You should be there."
With his recent statement he walked out. I removed my body away from Alex, if only he knew what his touch does to me.
I turned to face him, he was just smirking all through. "You are not going" He said with the simplest smile he had to offer.
Excuse me!
My brows where now raised.
"What!" I said. Since when does he tell me what to do. I didn't say anything further, if I wanted to go is my choice not his.
Moreover James had invited me already.
He didn't say anything further.
"Going to the party is my choice, Alex" I said. I didn't still understand why he cares if I go or not.
He still doesn't answer so I added. "Jerk"
"You enjoyed the game?" He asked. The more I didn't want to talk to him the more he talks. I nodded to his question.
With that I walked out. I didn't know where I was heading but I felt like I needed to breathe a little. The stadium was big that I could get missing so I followed where we came from.
I could bet Alex was following my every move, I decided to hide for a while. I checked my back when he wasn't looking and entered a room.
Entering the room was fun but when I entered I didn't know it was a training class. Children where much In here. Probably from 9 to 12 years where all in. The stares they had on me where much.
I gulped.
Wrong room.
I walked up to them slowly, they didn't seem like any harm.
"Hey, are you our new Coach" a blonde boy said.
"You look small" another boy said.
"Are you in Highschool" another boy said.
"Do you have name" a girl said.
I raised my gaze to all of them, so many questions huh.
"If you're our coach then, you need to have a ball" a boy I guess might be 14, gave me an heads up. The ball he threw to me was strong and my palm where lite so it fell.
They all started laughing. I picked the ball up. Am used to being laughed at by my mates but not children.
"Am not your Coach neither in highschool, have a name ....that's Angela and am also not small" I said the last part pointing to the boy who said I was small...
Am not used to speaking out, for too long. Neither am I used to speaking to children.
They all started whispering.
"What's going on here" A lady walked in, she looked from me to the children that where all whispering.
She walked up to them and yelled, I believe that's their Coach.
With that I walked out.
I was back in the halls, back to reality. I figured I was still holding the ball the boy from the inside had given to me.
Wondering if I should walk in and give it to him.
I just had an idea.
I went searching for Alex, I didn't see him for the past ten minutes but I later found him when he was talking to a security guard.
When he noticed I was walking up to him, he shrugged the security guard off and walked up to me.
"Gela?"
"Don't yell" I said "Could you take me to the footballers Changing room"
He gazed at me for a while but he didn't reply back as he led me through the halls.
My grin couldn't stop forming.
When we reached the room, he led me in. When they all came after him and hailed him for the second time, he gestured I had something to say since I asked for this.
I walked slowly to them, I could feel all their gaze on me. Alex would be wondering what I had to say cause he kept a surprised face but didn't say anything.
Stretching the ball forward to them and bringing out a pen. They probably took the memo. They all smiled and understood, one had said "Didn't know you where a fan" when they all signed it, the ball had been occupied with all their signatures.
Alex had led me out after.
"Autograph seriously?" He asked.
"It's for Isabella" I said but still smiling. He rolled his eyes.
"Your unbelievable Gela" he clarified but I smiled.
"James and Liam had been searching for you" I said, he stopped for a while and brought his gaze down to me.
