Tracy's POV

The practice was of them first warming up in the gym. Then they had a mini match among themselves. The game was nerve wracking even though it was just a practice game. Carson ran smoothly, snatched the ball from the opponent very smoothly. His team-mates consisted of Elliot, Kyle and two more guy who I have never seen before. When the game was over, the practice was called to an end as the boys quickly moved around to find their stuff. Carson came to drink some water first, while Elliot said he is going to take a shower and get ready to go home and Kyle agreed along with him.

Carson too after drinking water said he is going to shower and be right back and I was left alone. I told Carson that I will be outside the gym because it would be awkward sitting inside when no one was in there as everyone moved out as soon as the practice was over. I was standing near the door when I heard a cry for help at the end corner of the gym. My first instinct was to see what was wrong. My legs moved quickly towards the sound and the person calling for help. I was about to turn around the corner, when someone pulled me back and covered my mouth.

"Now you are seriously asking for trouble." Ashton's voice whispered right to my ear and I shivered. "Call the campus security, it is going to be sh**" he said. "Do not come there, I mean it. Just call the security. You get it?"

I nodded my head because I couldn't really speak when he covered my mouth.

"Now get going." He said removing his hand from my mouth and then turned me around and told me to get away from here.

I ran to look for security and at least I found one walking around with coffee on his hand. I huffed and puffed as I tried to explain to him that something was wrong at one corner of the hallway.

When I got back with the security, Ashton had the five guys on the ground, kneeling with their hands above them and some had bruises on their face. The security guy called for back up and I was not sure how bad things was going to be. I noticed a guy with glasses with books on his bag and his bag is torn completely and he looked messed up.

"Are you okay?" I asked him assuming he was the one calling for help.

He nodded his head. "He helped me just in time." He said looking at Ashton.

Ashton was speaking to the security and the security looked at those guys and shake his head with a disapproval look.

"Tracy? What's going on?" Carson said, he was wearing a dark jeans, white shirt and a grey hoodie.

The guy beside me fidgeted seeing Carson. Just then Elliot and Kyle came out too. There were more people now as securities got involved and the securities took the statements from the guy who was getting bullied, Ashton and I. The securities said they reported the school and now they have to see what the school tells them to.

Carson stood beside me as I explained to the security that I didn't see anything except I heard call for help and that's it. The security took note of that and said they will be all using the videos from the cameras around the hallway. The guys have chosen such a area making it really hard to find any evidence against them.

"Are you okay?" I asked Ashton and he nodded his head.

"Since when started being nice and helping others?" Carson said to him.

"I was not going to, but Tracy over here almost walk to them and I cannot let that happen, so I of course have to volunteer." Ashton said in a nonchalant way.

"You never get into fights." Elliot said in daze. "You never even fought for Tay-"

"Why do I even have to explain to you, guys." Ashton snapped.

Elliot shut his mouth and Carson said, "You know what you want, you can't have."

"I can and I will." Ashton glared at Carson.

I was puzzled at their talk. "See you later, love." Ashton said giving me a wink, his mood completely changed, as if he was not angry just few minutes back.These boys and their mood swings will give me headache for sure.

Carson's hand turned into fist and before he can do anything. I put my hand on his chest. "That's it." I said to him. "I am tired." I tell him honestly.

He sighed. Ashton was long gone leaving me with the seasons of the year.

I think they decided to solve their problems, by going out for drinks.

"You guys should look for other ways to solve your emotional stress." I said. "Drinking is not good and especially drinking to forget your problems."

I have no idea what problems they have right now, but their plan to go home changed and now they are planning to go to a club.

"We are not drinking to solve problems. We are drinking to live young." Elliot joke.

"Live young? You are serious?" I said. "That does not make sense to me."

"We are just having fun." Kyle said. I shake my head. Carson till now did not say anything and I was half hoping he would reject the idea of going to a club, but he doesn't as he walked with them as we said our goodbye. My hope shattered and I tried not to show my disappointment as I walked back to my living space.

My emotions getting the most out of me that when I reached home I made a mental note that no matter what, if he decides to come tonight after getting drunk. I will not open the door. When this thought came to my mind, I thought to myself, what is this emotions I am feeling about? Is it jealousy? Is it just worry for him? I don't know what it is, but I am not liking my This emotions now- feeling of disappointment and jealousy.
