Chapter-7 Soccer

I dedicate this chapter to my friend Prabhjot. Thnx for always supporting me and I love you....


Sean's POV:-

Two days had already passed when she had confronted me about the kiss but the memory of it was still crystal clear. I knew it had a bitter taste about it but I had to accept it one way or other that Scarlett Rose didn't want me and she had friend zoned me but I couldn't do anything about it. Charles was his Boyfriend and I just really hoped he would take good care of her but I had some bad uneasy feeling about this in my gut. I couldn't shake this feeling off the day the Charles had announced Scar his girlfriend. I couldn't bring myself trust that man. He didn't do anything bad to me yet but still that feeling was indicating something bad.

I shrugged off this feeling started getting up from the bed to get ready for the college. I should really concentrate on my studies. I know I had everything from my childhood. A great family, all the luxuries one could wish for but I couldn't take it granted. I had to fulfill all the expectations of my parents and as for this thing going on with Scar I would solve it when time came.

I ran downstairs for my breakfast. It was Monday morning and all the thoughts of everything had already clouded my mind. I needed some relaxation with my food. It was a good way to relax with your food when you had the best chef of the world as a mother.

As I reached the kitchen for my breakfast, I saw my younger sister Ella digging her mouth in her food like a hungry caveman. For a petite body like her she sure ate much more than that. She had blonde hair and green eyes like mom. She was the carbon copy of my mom whereas I was the carbon copy of my dad with the same chocolate brown hair with blue crystal eyes. Me and Ella were close as brother and sister but we had our fair share of fights. She didn't even look like my sister but other than appearances we were same in our behaviors. She was different in her way but like me in the end. Even that made sense.

I greeted my mother Laurine with a good morning and a kiss on the cheek. She was a very beautiful woman in her mid forties with blonde hair, green eyes and a petite figure but she was strong in every way. She had sophistication and elegance but her humble nature and down to earth attitude attracted everyone to her.

She smiled in my way with greetings and gave me some pancakes to eat. What would you need in the morning other than pancakes of your mother? I thought munching some pancakes in my mouth. She asked me about the college and my studies and I replied with a smile that they were going okay.

When she was preparing another plate of pancakes my father James came in the kitchen to greet us and kissed my mom on the lips and greeted both of us. My dad had dark chocolate hair with blue crystal eyes and a muscular body like mine. He was strict but he always kept family first.

Our family was not perfect. We all had our ups and downs with each other but in the end we had each other's back.

When I finished my breakfast, I said goodbyes to all of them and went for my college. I was thinking about my penthouse while driving my BMW. Dad had given me a penthouse as a gift at my eighteenth birthday but I liked here more in our house. I told him I would go there after finishing my graduation and when I would enter dad's business until I would live here.

When I arrived college, everything was same. The same students, same rush, same hustle-bustle of the morning. Everybody was trying to get in there classes on time.

I met my friends near the college building and was going to for my first class when I saw her in her yellow sunny dress talking to her friend who I guess was in one of my classes. I guess her name was Annabelle. She was beautiful but not my type. She was way straightforward and bubbly. She was much of Ronny's type. They would look great together. I shake my head off the thought and just focus on the brunette which had caught my eye from the first day of that coffee accident.

I silently laughed at that thought when she looked so terrified after dropping that coffee on my shirt. She looked so pale like she had seen a ghost.

I continued walking towards my class shaking my head. It was a great day to do some studying but who wanted to do that. I started laughing at my own stupidity. I guessed Samantha had passed own her stupidity to me which was not a good thing for me. Nada!!

Some girls passed me their flirty smiles but I just gave them a small smile because I was looking forward to one smile I wanted to see all day. Oh god! I was going to become like those cliché sappy lovers which just could only talk about night stars and bright sunshine with their full bright full smiles like joker. Ha!! I would never be like them. I had much more dignity than that. You are gonna be like them. You'll see.

No I was not. You are going to because love can make you do anything for the one you love.

Seriously love! That was a very huge word to even describe. I was not going to be in love. I knew I had never been in love but I didn't think we could love someone even to die for them like Romoe and Juliet. Liking was okay but I didn't think I could love anyone. It was a very complicated thing.

I just shrugged off the thought while sitting in the class when our teacher arrived in the class.

Everything was going great till the break when I saw one face which I was not able to like from few days. Yes you guessed right Charles Dawson. I knew his father was also the member of trustees like my father. His father's company Dawson's was also one of our company's biggest rivals. I didn't mind him at all because it was in business. I didn't even care but from last week whenever I saw him with Scar. I didn't like the feeling which I felt every time I saw them. I knew it was jealousy because I liked Scar but she shouldn't be with him but with me. Oh god! Now I was sounding like a four year old who didn't get his favorite toy on the Christmas.

You should say something to her about your feelings. May be she left Charles and come to you.

Seriously mind! Had you lost it already and the session had just started. Everything was not this simple. If she didn't like me back. If after the last kiss I shared with her which she had described "mistake", the term I didn't like at all, I told her about my crush on her, she would never talk to me ever.

You are exaggerating it like a girl. Have some balls dude and man up!

I was not going to do anything about it. If it meant to be then it would be. I just sighed in defeat on my own thoughts. I was just becoming helpless against my feelings for her. Sure I had many crushes or likings before but something was different this time. Something I didn't feel ever about anyone. I hope I would not hurt myself in the end.

After giving one last glance towards the direction where she was sitting I got up from my seat and was going out off the canteen when Ronny stopped me.

"Hey Dude, where you going?" he asked.

"Just going out in the field. I am not feeling alright" I replied with the shrug. Ronny knew why I was not feeling alright when he glanced towards the direction of Scar.

"Ok you go. I will join you in few but just don't do anything reckless" he said chuckling.

"Okay Dad" I replied sarcastically. Way to go to Maturity.

I just stepped out in the soccer field from the canteen. A cool breeze passed along my face and I just smelled the freshly watered grass of the field. It was a bright sunny day and a great day to play soccer. It was very soothing and calming too.

Some balls were lying on the field freely. I guessed the practice had just finished. For me soccer was the best stress reliever. Whenever I felt stressed I always played soccer. I really loved it. I was a player of it back in high school but left it in the senior year. I didn't want to pursue it as a career so I left it.

I had some friends in college which were in team. We played some friendly matches and I had always won. They told me that is should play in the team but I always shrugged it. I was not interested.

But to forget these thoughts about Scar and my feelings and everything I need soccer to relax a bit.

I was kicking some balls in the goal with all my might to kick that stress out off my body when coach from side boundary of the field clapping. I turned my face towards the source of sound of clapping. I didn't know someone was watching me. I guessed I was just thinking too much about everything.

I got out of my trance of thoughts and tried to concentrate on words which coach was saying.

"Your kick is good, boy and your technique is good too" Coach said with a smile.

"Thanks sir" I replied.

"Hi my name is Coach John Brown." He replied with a hand shake.

"Hi sir, my name is Sean Kingsley" I replied while handshaking.

"Mr. James Kingsley's son? One of the trustees" he asked.

"Yes sir. I am his son" I replied.

"Have you taken part in the try outs for the team?" he asked.

"No sir, I was just casually playing". I replied.

"Have you played ever before?" he asked.

"Yes sir. I had played in high school but left in the senior year" I replied.

"Why?" he asked with curiosity.

"Sir, I really liked playing it but I didn't want to pursue it as a career so I left it" I replied while shrugging.

"Yeah but if you don't mind you can try for extras. We are recruiting new players for extras. You come tomorrow morning and we will see what we can do with you." He said small smile.

"Ok sir. I can play it for fun. I will see in the morning."I replied with the same smile.

"That's the spirit boy" he said while giving me a pat on the back and went back from where he came.

I thought about playing soccer once again. The best part of it was the adrenaline rush while playing the field. You just forgot everything else which made it the best stress reliever.

I was going to resume my playing when I heard Ronny calling my name. When I turned around Ronny was walking towards me.

"Hey, what were you talking about with Coach John?" he asked.

"Nothing. Just about Soccer. He was asking me if I applied in the trials for extras and has asked me to come tomorrow morning in the field to meet him" I told him.

"Wow, I heard Coach John never asked anyone ever and he is strict too." He replied by raising an eyebrow.

"I know, I know but it's not a big deal. I am just going for trial and I don't care if it works out or not. Just go with flow." I replied while shrugging.

"I heard Charles is the captain of the soccer team" he asked me while mocking me.

"I said I don't care" I replied in a low voice almost challenging Ronny.

I knew I had a problem Charles because one he was the boyfriend of Scar and second was I didn't feel right about that person. Something was not right about him. He was not the same from inside. I had a very bad feeling about him. But I had to be careful about him because of Scar.

And about soccer, I seriously didn't care about the result because playing soccer did always matter for me. So this time was also not different.

I kicked the last ball in the goal and walked back towards Canteen with Ronny as the break was going to finish.

I was feeling much more relaxed now except that bad feeling so I just let it go for the time being.

The time we arrived back to the Canteen the break was over and I resume going to my next lecture.

After that the day was okay. The last lecture with Scar was great. We again talked like that old times. She was again the old Scar. No awkwardness of kiss. Nothing. I was really glad about that. Now I could talk with her like before. We talked about anything and everything to recover the last few days we didn't talk to each other.

I really missed talking to her these days. I really missed her voice and her laugh. The shining in her eyes whenever she told me about her favorite things. When she scrunched her nose which looked very cute whenever I told her anything which she didn't like. All in all I missed her.

After the lecture was over, I said goodbyes to her and parted my ways from her and went to home.

At the end of the day, everything was going great but I had a nagging feeling in the back of mind that something was not right and it was going to come out soon from the shadows.
