and on saving the game.
    “You were amazing, Sean,” Michael said. “Bro, like seriously, it was insane out there. You rocked! You slayed! You’re a god! I froze when I saw you with the ball in your hands. I was never expecting that. Well done, pal.”
    I hugged him, patting his back. My boy, Mike, was always good with the words.
    “Thank you, guys. We did this together. This is for all of us,” I said and all of them started clapping and making noises. The adrenaline kept them pumped up and it was still gripping me as well. I had secured my place in the NFL! It couldn’t get any better than this.
    I went to get my clothes and shower when my phone rang. I didn’t have to look at who was calling me. I knew. As a matter of fact, I wanted to call her myself.
    “Hey, Kayla, babe. What’s up?” I shouted in the phone, trying to hear her over the loud uproar my teammates were making.
    “Congrats, sweetie. I saw every single minute of it. I was sitting on the edge of my seat by the time the game finished. I’m so happy, you can’t imagine! Woohoo!” she screamed from the other side.
    I chuckled. She was a very ambitious person and was immensely proud of me and my accomplishments.
    “Thanks, doll. Your support means so much to me, and you know that. I love you.”
    “I love you, too,” she breathed it out like a whisper. Goosebumps trickled down my skin.
    “By the way, how was the interview? You killed it, right?” I said. She had had an interview for a scholarship at Princeton University and had been buzzing about it lately. It meant a lot to her and, honestly, I liked the idea of having a Princeton girlfriend. That was the new sexy.
    “I got accepted! Yay!” She yelled from the other side and I laughed. “The interview went amazing. Remember all the stuff I memorized? Well, I forgot everything when I entered and told the dean all the shit that came to me. He was blown away.”
    “Congrats, baby. I never doubted you,” I said, feeling satisfied and jubilant.
    “Thank you for that,” she said.
    Silence.
    It was a nice thing that we were both succeeding in life. She was going to go to a different university, which would mean that she would have to move out. And I might be going to the opposite side of the country with whatever team picked me up in the draft. Everyone was supposed to go their own path and that resulted into one painful thing. The end of our relationship. It was imminent and we both knew that. We were terribly afraid of it. That was why we remained silent on the phone. The tension and nervousness was almost tangible.
    “I’m so happy for the two of us, seriously,” I said to ease the situation.
    “Yeah…” Kayla said from the other side. “I’m coming over now and once I get there we will celebrate, okay? We’ll party like crazy!”
    “Okay,” I replied and hung up. We had some talking to do and that was what was frightening us. Our future was at stake for God’s sakes.
    “Oh, who was that, Casanova?” The guys were teasing me.
    “You know very well who that was,” I replied, chuckling.
    “I love you, babe. I’ll die without you. Please come over, I don’t think I can live if you are not here with me,” they were imitating me and laughing at that. I joined in.
    “You, guys, are not normal. Like really, really crazy,” I said, still smiling and headed for the showers.
    “Kayla, please come to me! Let me love you!” They shouted behind my back still giggling like schoolgirls.
    I turned on the shower, my lips curved into a smile. Hot water fell in torrents over my smooth, naked body. I was soaked in sweat and badly needed this. Soaping every single inch of myself, I stayed there for more than twenty minutes. Random thoughts passed through my mind, but eventually as I was drying myself off I decided that tonight I wasn’t going to think about anything besides pursuing my dreams.
