Chapter 34: Crazy Game

Eason’s POV

I know it’s stupid for me to get angry over those trifles. But I just can’t stand Alex, with him pestering Nat like a fucking annoying fly. I stare at them gloomily across the court before the game. Natalia is talking to him and then they both burst into laughter together. Her smile is so beaming and bright that I know she must have a special feeling for him as well. If I hadn’t made the move first, she would have been with him already.

I can’t let that happen. The game began and I’m all in for it. James told me that fucking Alex is pretty good at sports too but I’m losing this one to him.

At first, it was still a casual game played in a relaxing and friendly atmosphere. But my intention to win was probably too obvious that Alex sensed it quickly. He got serious immediately. And it soon turned into a brutal one-on-one contest between me and him.

Fifteen minutes later, after I managed to score another point, Katherine tosses the ball aside and collapsed to the ground. Hot sweat is streaming down her face.

“No-I’m done. I wanted to burn some calories, not to have myself worked up to death. I need to lie down,” she protests. “You can just watch if you want to,” I tell her. I don’t need her to win the game. “Can I go as well?” James groans, both hands on his knees and panting heavily. “You probably forgot. But sports aren’t really my forte.” “Hey,” Eddie shouts from the other side. “Can we take a halftime break? I think I’m dehydrating!”

Tell me it isn’t because if it is…then you are just crazy.” I squeeze the bottle in my hand and stay silent. My gut reaction was to say no. But after a long pause, I sign and rake my fingers through my hairs, “yeah…probably a little.” “What?” James cries out and quickly lowers his voice under my deathly glare. “Are you fucking out of your mind?
