My thoughts trailed off to the one girl who I couldn’t seem to get out of my head. My Wellsy had my entire fucking soul in a twist around her little finger. I didn’t know what I wanted fromher, or if I even wanted something at all. All I knew was we were now co-workers at the surf school, and for some reason, I didn’t knowhowto feel about that.
Maybe it was just attraction. Yeah, okay, I guess I was attracted to her but that didn’t mean I had to do anything about it. I hated her,despisedher even. She was Poppy Wells. The girl who hated my guts just as much as I hated her…but she was also justWellsy.
Fuck, maybe Lachlan was right. Maybe I did seriously need to get laid. Speaking of Lachlan the devil, I got spammed with selfies of them all crashing one of the hockey teams post-game celebrations and stealing all their puck bunnies. I even got sent one of Xander sucking vodka off one of their bare chests and Lachlan chanting obnoxiously loudly in the background. I chuckled, shooting them all a message in the group chat.
Training tomorrow. If you turn up drunk or with a hangover, it’s an extra hour cleaning the equipment.
SEXY DEVIL:
Come onnnnnn that’s so fucking stupid!
Who the fuck is sexy devil??
SEXY DEVIL:
The best fucking person on this planet ;)
WANNA-BE SHAKESPEARE:
Lachlan got dared to change all your contact info, Cap.
SEXY DEVIL:
Mali, you dirty snitch.
WANNA-BE SHAKESPEARE:
I’m not offended by that. At all, actually.
SEXY DEVIL:
You’re never offended. By anything. It’s annoying.
WANNA-BE SHAKESPEARE:
;)
HELL’S PRINCE:
You named yourself Sexy Devil? That is so unoriginal Lach. None of these are creative. Better hope your song writing isn’t as shit as your nickname game. Tho, it would explain why no one wants to listen to you play.
Hell’s Prince? Xan, is that you? You know what, I don’t even care. You guys are so weird.
SEXY DEVIL:
Nah, c’mon, Cap, we all know Jakson is weirder.
No one disagreed.
Sighing, I put my phone back into my pocket. I debated for a good twenty minutes about throwing a pillow at Jakson’s face but in the end, I settled for a constant nudging of my foot against his shoulder blade until he woke up, careful not to wake up Lia as well.
“Cap, what the fuck man!” he groaned, running his hand across his face. Shooing me away, he turned over onto his side, pulling his phone out from his pocket. A message on the group chat came through soon after.
LITTLE SUNSHINE:
Well, that hurt my feelings :(
I chuckled, walking over to the kitchen. “I’ve got a session with Pepe in an hour, and I was thinking about getting some ingredients for sleepy head there on my way back. Maybe convince her to bake something, you know?”
