Never Get Enough (Enough #1) (15 page)

             
After this rant, she starts to tear up. And I know I have to go cause this chick is crazy, really dodged a fucking bullet when she slept with that basketball player right after me. Gotta keep my eye on her though, she really seems to be gunning for Carter, and I don’t want anybody messing with my baby. I see Jace pulling out of the school and use that as my excuse. “Lena, I have to go, Jace just pulled out, and he is headed to my house. I got to be there to let him in. Sorry, that you feel that way about Carter. I love her.” With that I jump in, slam the car door in her face, and quickly drive away.

             
Jace and I eat some food that Lana left us, take a few minutes of downtime, and head right back to the football field to prepare for tonight with the team. We run some plays together, and I warm up my arm. Tanner and I still have a great dynamic on the field. Hate to admit it, but he is a real asset out there. He’s faster than almost everybody, and he can complete the play. At least in practice he knows how to get in position to catch that ball, and I hope it translates into a lot of touchdowns tonight.

             
The part that makes me suspicious though about him still off the field is he always talks to Carter about how he feels so bad that he made such a bad impression on me, but he has never really made any effort to change that impression or talk to me about it. I think he likes to play on Carter’s sympathy, and he couldn’t give a damn if I talk to him. Other than football, Carter is the only thing that matters to him. I can tell. His eyes follow her at school, and he makes sure to take advantage and talk to her any chance he gets. I’ve left it alone for now because he hasn’t done anything else shady, and he never complained about me handing him his ass. But he is on my radar because he is obsessed with my girl.

             
We are all ready to go and the fans have filled up the stands. Coach Wesley is giving us one last pep talk about starting strong. The guys and I are pumped, and I feel the spike of adrenaline that comes before a big game. All of the nerves start to fade away, I am left with a strong desire to just play football. Then the lights go dark and the field lights up. The speakers start playing “Circus” by Brittany Spears and the dance team dances out in sync with Carter walking out last but dancing to the front.

All the guys in
the stands and both football teams start yelling and whistling immediately. I have conflicting feelings as I am looking at my girlfriend at the very front and center of the dance team. She looks crazy sexy but also like an exaggerated version of herself with very full hair and fake eyelashes. They are all dressed in red corsets with tights, and Carter is holding a whip. What the fuck. I would love this look in our bedroom later tonight, but not in front of thousands of people. Their dance is amazing but also in your face sexy. And when the song says, “Crack that whip” Carter does, and I hear my Coach say, “Holy shit.” With that I start to feel uncomfortable to know that my coach is having really inappropriate thoughts about my girlfriend. I take my eyes off of Carter, and everybody on my team and in the stands looks fixated on the dance team but especially my girlfriend. I am genuinely glad that she is starting to feel more confident in herself since we have been together, but this kind of show is for my eyes only. I hate that I am getting painfully turned on while I am watching her. It pisses me off because I know other guys have to be feeling this way too.

Just when I think I am getting my emotions under control, Carter marches over to me and pulls me to the front of the dancers. To the words of “There
are only two types of guys out there, the ones that can hang with me and the ones that are scared,” Carter climbs up my body with her legs and suddenly has them wrapped around my head. People start screaming and cheering. She then suddenly flips backward and drops to the ground in a full split. Two girls lead me back off the field as Carter, Hampton, and Leia start flipping across the field. At the very end, Carter does some more moves in the front with the rest of the team doing the same move two seconds later. It looks really awesome.

The song finally ends and the applause on the field is deafening. The girls run off, and I glance at the football team. The whole team looks as shell shocked as I
feel. It was like we all watched our favorite sexual fantasy before going out to play in the mud with a bunch of sweaty guys. Holy shit, Carter is going to be fucked hard tonight. Dancing out on the field tonight she was asking for it. I can’t believe she wrapped her legs around my head in front of all those people. Now, I have to settle my hormones down so I can concentrate again on the game.

                                                                                
Chapter 15

Carter

I am so glad I am on the dance team and not a cheerleader. We get to start off everything and do a little thing during half time, but I get to actually sit and watch Bray play instead of having to entertain the crowd during the game. Bray has played really well so far, and he and Tanner actually make a great offensive team. The defense is still suffering without Keller though, which means it has been a very close game tonight. I look up at the scoreboard and it reads 23-21 with only two minutes to go.

If Bray could make one more touchdown happen, our team would walk away with a big win tonight
, Harrisburg is one of our biggest rivals. The ball is about to be hiked, and I see him catch it and look to see where everybody is on the play. He fakes the pass to Tanner and then starts down the field himself. I see the defense try to swarm him. Nervously, I start squeezing Hampton’s arm until she says “Enough, Wolverine! Those nails are sharp. Stop stressing, we are ahead by two.” I let go of her arm and start to just bounce on the balls of my feet as I watch him move around defense coming at him. I can tell he is in the zone where he is only focused on getting by one defensive player at a time. He passes the twenty yard line, and I know he has it. There is one player left between him and a touchdown. Bray sidesteps him quickly to get in the end zone and the ref calls the touchdown. There is no time left in the game, and our crowd goes wild.

I see Bray who now that the play is over is staring right at me. He motions me down to the field to celebrate, and I rush down to him. He picks me up as soon as I get down there and holds me close. “I am so proud of you.” I yell at him over the crowd and other football players hollering around us. “Thanks, baby! I loved you
r dance, but not the outfit that you wore for it. Could we try to make the outfits a little less sexy in the future?. I was distracted the whole first half by how you looked and danced. Then I got pissed because all the other team could talk about when they were trash talking was how much they wanted to fuck my girlfriend. I hope some of them come to the party at Cole’s lake house tonight. I want to beat their asses, I’m not kidding.” Uh, oh, he really did look super pissed, and I had thought that could be a possibility. My plan was that my outfit would distract him from the aggravation of other people seeing me in it, but I never thought of the other team taunting him about me during the game. Now I am just grateful that he won, I wouldn’t want my performance to be blamed on our football team’s first game loss.

“Bray, do you want me to change into something else before the party?” He nods eagerly and says, “That would be great, baby! Why don’t you go change and I will get things wrapped up her
e with the team.” I head to the girls locker room where I find Hampton, Leia, and Cara getting ready for the lake party. “Hey girls,” I say. How’s it going?” Hampton replies excitedly, “Have you seen how the crowd responded to our dance, Carter? All the football guys want a piece of us now. This party is going to be unbelievable.” Leia adds in a calmer tone, “Yeah, Carter, that dance was awesome. You did such a great job with it. Thanks, everybody was really impressed.” Cara nods her head in agreement, and I am just happy that everybody liked the dance so much. I knew it was going to shock a few people with how in your face it was, but I wanted something different from the same old stuff.

I moved to the other part of the room to get in the shower. Starting to take off my clothes, I felt somebody watching me and got nervous. I checked all around the shower stall
s and bathrooms. I couldn’t find anybody. Eventually I relaxed enough to take a very quick shower and get back to the other girls.

We got all ready for the party and started heading out to the guys. We were crashing at the lake house tonight, and Bray had requested to drive separate to spend some time together
before the party started. I saw him in the parking lot and jumped on his back. Covering his eyes with my hands, I said, “Guess who?” He starts chuckling, “Well, I don’t know. I know your voice haunts my dreams, and the way you smell is one of my favorite things in the whole world. But I can’t remember your name so could you remind me, please, sweetheart.” He pulls me around to the front of him and starts kissing me softly. I give him my tongue, and he starts to suck on it. Then he starts cupping my ass, and I can feel him hardening against me. He groans and says, “Damn, I have had that problem all night. Are you going to help me out with it, baby? It’s only fair with how you’ve dressed and danced. What you are wearing now is not any better.” I disagree with him on that, “Bray, I am in a pair of cutoff jean shorts and a black tank top. How can this not be any better than a corset and tights?” He frowns and says, “I don’t know but you still look as sexy as hell. I just don’t want anybody else to see how perfect your body is. I want to hide it for only me.” “Bray, it is only yours to touch and kiss. It will only be yours to hold, but I like being able to be more relaxed with what I wear now. I felt like a prude before, and now I feel like I am fitting in with the dance team better. I’m only young once!” He seems happy that I feel like I am fitting in more, but I can tell he still doesn’t love my new less uptight wardrobe. Choosing to not deal with his negative views on that, I head to his Range Rover.

Bray rushes in front of me and helps me in on my side. Just as soon as he goes around to his side to get in, Jace asks if he can ride with us to the lake house. Bray looks at Jace like he has lost his mind. Jace suddenly busts into laughter and admits,
“I was just jerking your chain, man. I wouldn’t even want to listen to your whipped ass sucking up to Carter on the ride to the lake house. I bet you tell her how beautiful her hair is and how you love to look into her eyes. Gag me. I will just ride with one of the girls on Carter’s volleyball team. Three of them have offered to drive me there.” I cut Jace a serious look after that and warn him, “Just be up front that you are just looking for a hookup, please. They all come to me afterwards and ask what you thought of them and if you like them. Be clear about your intentions this time with any of my teammates.” He gives me a grin and just says, “You spoil all my fun, Carter.” Bray adds in, “Well, she doesn’t for me!”Jace looks back with an exasperated expression, “Of course, she doesn’t spoil yours, Bray. In fact I have never in all the time I have known you seen you smile so much.” Jace stalks off to find a girl to hitch a ride with since he wants to drink tonight.

I look across the car at Bray to see if Jace’s statement scared him or bothered him at all. He is
just grinning at me, and says, “You hear that, baby doll. Now I smile all the time. You give me so much to smile about.” Then I decide I want to do something else to make him smile. I lean over and kiss his neck and lick it. “Baby, that feels so good. I’m so hard just from thinking of your dancing!” I start to reach for his lap to rub and stroke him. He grabs my hand and pulls it away. “Carter, if you touch me right now I will lose it and go off, embarrassing myself. Let’s wait and at least get to somewhere outside the car first so I can attack you.” I agree but decide to guilt him into letting me pick the music. “Okay, but I really wanted to touch you before we got there, only listening to Brittany Spears will cheer me up now,” I say with a pout. “Of course, baby doll, we will listen to whatever you want.” I start laughing then, and he looks at my face and knows I was laying on the guilt to get my way. “You are so bad, baby, and I would have let you listened to whatever you want anyway.” “But now you’ll dance with me too, right?” He groans but nods in agreement and I smile in triumph. “You really are whipped.” I inform him, but he just shrugs, “I wouldn’t want it any other way, baby.” We car dance to Brittany Spears’ music all the way to the party, and he asks when we get there, “That little dance session goes no farther, right, baby doll?”

I just laugh and don’t say anything until he leans over to my side and starts mercilessly tickling me. I laugh and laugh until I beg him to stop, but he is still asking me to promise. Ahh, finally I do promise, and we get out of the truck and hold hands walking up to the party.
