"BLUE 82! BLUE 82! SET...HIKE!" I yell. Quickly after the play starts to develop.
I look around the field for an open receiver, I gotta act quick.

Our defensive end comes loose and is headed straight towards me ready for the tackle. My receiver finally gets open and I let the ball fly hoping it hit the target. I, of course, am tackled anyway and fall straight to the ground.

Coach blows the whistle. I kind of just lay on the ground, the wind was knocked out me. Our defensive end, Tevin, lends a hand to help me up.

"You good pretty boy" he says with a smirk forming on his face. "Thought I knocked you out for a sec-"

"TEVIN! WHAT DID I SAY ABOUT HARD HITS LIKE THAT IN PRACTICE? DO YOU WANT YOUR QUARTERBACK OUT FOR THE UPCOMING SEASON?!" Coach Ben yells point his clip board at Tevin.

"I'm sorry coach, my bad" Tevin says trying to seem remorseful.

"Don't let it happen again! Now let's run that play one more time!" Coach runs back to the sideline.

We start to go walk back into formation.
"You're a piece of shit Tevin you know that?" I say laughing.

"I had to get you for the one time, you were looking a little tired" he says smirking taking his position at defense.

"Fuck you Tevin" I say full out laughing

"ARE YOU DONE CONVERSING? LETS GO" coach blows the whistle and training camp continues.

See Tevin is one of my two closest friends on the team. We met when we both attended Auburn University, we had the best time of our lives there. Tevin is two years older then me, when I first got to college I was lost as most people are and he helped me adjust–on and off the field. After his senior year he left for the NFL and was drafted by the Giants, we kept in touch and then the draft came around I too was drafted by the Giants.

I wouldn't have it any other way.

After practice was over, we all headed towards the locker room–sweaty and sore. I shake my arm out a little to try to get rid of the some soreness, this is what happens when you don't train after a couple months.

"Hunt you coming over to hang later right?"

"Yeah definitely, I want that 2k rematch" I say chuckling.

"I know y'all weren't about to hang out and not invite me, right?" Our best wide receiver , Chris, asked coming out of the showers.

"Shut yo ass up Chris, hell yeah you can come"

Chris is my other close friend, however we did not go to College with each other. We met during rookie training camp and just clicked. He's a little reckless though, always on front page news doing crazy shit. Although, His abilities on the field make up for the "bad boy" image he created for himself. Him and Tevin tend to clash a little occasionally because of this, but we are all close.

"Cool I was just making sure y'all weren't gonna leave me out or anything like last time"

"Chris you told us you had a date last time remember" I reminded

Chris is the biggest fuck boy I've ever met. You'll never catch this dude in a relationship, he a hit it and quit type of guy.

"Your point! Y'all my boys! I would've ditched her in a heart beat knowing how that date ended up going!" He said laughing "her head game was weak as fuck"

"You messed up as hell Chris" Tevin says packing his things "watch one day you gon' find that girl whose gonna make you commit"

"Fuck that corny shit!"Chris says "just cause you done got engaged don't mean we gotta jump the bandwagon...ain't that right Hunt?"

"Aye don't get put me in this, I'm good on that" I say putting my hands up in defense " I'm focusing on ball right now and that's that"

"Man y'all ain't no fun, how I get stuck friends with y'all lames!" Chris throws his hands up dramatically.

"Nobody else likes you that's how" Tevin says to Chris while chuckling

"Yo mama likes-"

"OKAY!" I say loud enough to get there attention "I'm gonna head out and I'll see y'all at 6" I say walking towards the exit of the locker room.

Those two were gonna give me a head ache if I had to endure that any longer.

I head out of the stadium to my 2018 matte black Aston Martin Vanquish. I click open the trunk and throw in my gym bag, then I go around and hope in the drivers seat.

I sit down for a minute to check my phone texts and other notifications. Allison, my ex, continues to blow up my phone trying to get back together.

Doesn't this girl take a hint! Blocked.
I gotta remind myself to change my number.

I continue to check my phone and see I have a voice mail message and a missed call from my agent, Terry.

I click the message to hear it:
"Hey Hunter, I'm just calling to tell you that ESPN magazine called me and would like for you to be on their cover for their 2018 body issue. You can decline the offer if you like, but I think it will be good for you. Think about it a little bit then call me back with your answer. Alright bye"

I'll definitely be calling him back on that,being on the cover is an honor in itself.

I finish checking my phone then set it aside to start car and drive home.

I step inside the empty mansion and head up the stairs to my bedroom to shower, I have forty-five minutes before I had to be at Tevin's house. I quickly did my business, got dressed and headed out.

The drive to Tevin's house was a ten minute drive so I got there pretty quick. I drove up to the gate and press the key pad

"Gibbs I'm here"

"Aight come through" he spoke back

I proceed to drive up the drive way and park there. Tevin's house is big ass shit and it always amazes me every time. As I'm walking up the steps to the door I get a call from Tevin

"Dude I'm literally at your door..what's up?"

"I called to tell you the door was open"

"Why couldn't you open it yourself Tev?" this dude lazy as hell

"I'm taking a shit and I'm not about to leave shit stains on the floor to open the door"

"You're fucking nasty Gibbs" I say with disgust in my voice. He starts laughing and I just hang up the phone.

I head inside his house and sit my ass on the couch waiting for him to finish his business.
A couple minutes later I hear him coming down the stairs.

"Alright let's get this rematch started! I just got a call from Chris and he should here any moment now-"

Chris burst through the door "the coolest nigga you know has just arrived "

"You a clown Chris" I said in amusement

"Chris just sit down" Tevin said turning to Chris annoyed

"See y'all always ganging up on me" Chris said as he walked towards the couch to sit "y'all don't want me to be great"

"I'm gonna order pizza real quick. Y'all want the usual?"

"Yeah that's fine with me" I spoke up

"So uh Hunt you never told us how your trip to Miami went" Chris said turning his interest towards me

"It was fine" I say vaguely

"Just fine? You didn't bang no Miami girls or nothing?" Chris says in shock "I heard they wild over there"

"Nah I didn't bang no chicks" I say with amusement in my voice "the trip was more for relaxing and reflecting"

"Having sex is relaxing!"

Tevin finally joins the conversation after getting off the phone "what's going on?"

"Hunter here didn't bag a single chick out in Miami"

"Your point?" Tevin says back

"I need new friends" Chris says incredulously

"You know I said no girls til the season was over" I say exasperatedly "I don't need distractions"

"How is having sex a distraction! It's just one night" Chris says

"Yeah but next thing you know that girl is talking to the media about her wild night with Hunter Reece" Tevin inputs

"See! Exactly I don't need that right now"

"Did you at least meet one girl or were you a hermit the whole trip?"Chris asks "I'm worried about you Hunter, I'm starting to think-"

"Shut up Chris you're so extra, why you gotta go there?" Tevin says

"I'm just saying!"

"Okay, OKAY! I did meet a girl on the flight over" I say unconsciously smiling remembering Nadia

"Oh shit he's smiling" Chris says excitedly "you got her number right"

"No I didn't, I'm focusing on football remember"

"Well how she look like? Did you get her any of her social accounts at least?" Tevin asks

"No I didn't" I didn't think of that at the time "damn I should've.....all I got was her first and last name"

"I'm not one to promote stalking but I bet you could find her on Instagram" Chris suggests

"I mean I'm not one to promote stalking either but I at least wanna know how the girl that's got you all smiley looks like" Tevin adds

"Ok then" I agree "let me see if I could find her"

I pull out my phone and open the Instagram app.

"Watch her be butt ugly" Chris breaks out laughing

"Chris I swear you messed up for that" Tevin says laughing along

"She beautiful I'm telling you now, the prettiest girl I've ever seen for real" I say with all seriousness

"Shit my bad" Chris says putting his hands up in defense

"I think I found her" finding her was relatively easy I just search up her name in my followers and luckily enough she was following me.

"Is her account on private?" Tevin asks

"Nope" I said showing them pictures of her "don't like anything" I say warning them

seeing all these photos of her brings back the memories of the plane ride.

Chris grabs my phone to get a better look.
"Damn Hunter I didn't know you like chocolate girls! Me and Tev are rubbing off on you" Chris says laughing "damn she fine as hell, if you don't want her I'll take her"

I snatched my phone back from him and lock my phone "hell no she's off limits, if I can't have her you can't"

"You can actually have her if you just quit this whole 'no girls' rule you have going on" Tevin speaks up

"No can do" I say stubbornly "Are we gonna play 2k or not?" I question trying to change the subject

Maybe I could hit her up in the off season but right now I can't be focusing on someone else's feelings.
