I DON’T usually come to the bleachers at night, but I have a big
football game coming up and it’s got me too wired to sleep. I’m the football
team’s star player—which is great, don’t get me wrong—but it’s a lot of
pressure sometimes. It’s weighing on me extra heavily tonight, and I came
here thinking maybe if I get some extra drills in, get my body pumping,
then I’ll be able to sleep.
The rows of benches, which are usually lit up by the flood lights, are
dark and shadowy, and it’s kinda eerie—prime slasher movie setting.
Although I’m pretty sure you only get murdered if you’re doing sexy shit,
and drills are far from sexy. So I should be fine.
I dump my bag down on a bench and fish a beaten-up packet of
cigarettes out of my pocket, and a lighter. I suck the smoke into my lungs
and sigh it out slowly through my nose in a wispy cloud.
It feels good and bad at the same time, my secret vice. Makes me feel
like a rebellious bad boy for once. No one knows I smoke, and I’m trying to
quit because I know it’s not good for my athletic prospects, but my impulse
control isn’t great at the best of times, and I’m feeling jangly tonight.
With the shameful cigarette perched between my lips, I have my jacket
half off when I notice a dark duffel bag on the bench next to mine. I didn’t
spot it in the shadows. It’s hanging open, but I can’t see what’s inside from
this angle. Maybe someone forgot it at practice earlier. I vaguely recognize
it, but I can’t remember—
The thud thud thud of feet on compacted ground rises up from below
and I look around quickly. I’m not alone. The cigarette is out of my mouth
and under my shoe before I even register it’s happened.
Through the darkness I can just make out a dark figure at the far end of
the field. They’re moving fast and getting closer. I squint. It must be one of
the guys. Josh? But he’s not that fast. Maybe Randy?
I’m about to call out to them when the moon comes out from behind a
wisp of cloud and the runner comes into focus. Tall and pale, wearing only
loose shorts that cling to his hips, dark hair plastered to his neck with sweat,
broad shoulders pumping as he runs.
Shit. Him.
I duck back slightly.
Malcolm Blackwood has always hated me, and I don’t know why. And,
as much as I wish it didn’t, it bothers the hell out of me. I’m not used to
being disliked. Everyone loves me, because, well, I’m lovable as hell. I’m
probably in the running for the most popular guy in Langley College, all I
have to do is smile at someone, give them a flash of the pearly whites, and
we’re lifelong friends. Hell, I’ve got women practically lining for a chance
