Feelin' Beachy! (777 views)

Shyanne’s sympathy for Brad was growing the more she took in the state of him. She was still mad at him, she still wanted him to be nowhere near her, but at the same time she couldn’t walk away. She couldn’t just turn on her heel and go. Brad was seriously injured, probably needed to go to the hospital, probably benched at the new games, all because of her. She bit down on her lower lip. She never asked for him to do this. It wasn’t her fault at all, Brad was the idiot who got himself beaten up! But at the same time she felt guilty, she felt like she shouldn’t just go out and enjoy the party, not with Brad there injured and looking pitiful. He’d only meant well.

She knew it, and she could tell, but that pissed her off. It pissed her off because he was such a manwhore that he couldn’t wait to have sex with a girl, any girl, even when they were together. It made her feel like just some object he’d been lusting after the entire time they dated, and when he couldn’t break the seal right away, he just gave up trying. She hated that he was confusing her so much right now, especially when she knew he’d done her wrong and intentionally hurt her but right now, when he tried to get the infamous Keegan away from her, she didn’t know.

”Oh shut up, Benji. I super don’t care about you.” She snapped to the other football player in the room. Maybe she shouldn’t be here. She definitely didn’t want to be, especially if Benji was here trying to take care of Brad. But she couldn’t just leave without saying anything. She turned to Brad then, and exhaled, taking a few steps forward. ”I don’t need any protection from sleazes, okay? I don’t. I appreciate what you did but I do not need it. Don’t get yourself hurt over me ever again, Brad. I hate when that happens because then it makes me think you actually care, when you’ve already made it clear you don’t by cheating on me. I can handle sleazes myself. Okay?”

”I don’t know... I think he is. I think he is and he just made a mistake.” And funnily enough, Seamus had never thought about it that way. Though he knew the love was different, he thought of Issy. He definitely loved her – not romantically though – and he was making a mistake hiding his orientation from her. ”He’ll never win her back like this though. He hurt her really bad. She doesn’t like to let on how much, but Issy’s able to tell.”

He took a drink of his own beer though watched with memorization as Clint threw back some of his bottle, his eyes locking on Clint’s throat. He watched his Adam’s apple bounce for a second before he tore his eyes away and forced a laugh. ”Well, I guess it’s good Keegan didn’t kill him. I don’t know where Chad wandered off to. He’s probably chasing some tail. As usual. So I guess it’s just us,”

Oh. Yeah. It was just them. Seamus felt his heart rate begin to pick up and he downed some more of the beer. He needed some liquid courage if he was going to be around Clint alone. He just hoped he didn’t wind up making any mistakes... but he was careful. He knew he wouldn’t.
