Trusted Lies

False Faith

I went home that night with the biggest smile on my face and an even brighter one in my heart, it was too good to be true, I earned my spot on the team and I’ve got a girlfriend, it’s strange though cos I’ve never felt this way towards anyone before and even though they say it’s dangerous, I’m ready to take the risk.

Woken up by the sound of my alarm clock,I hurried up and rushed to school and met Andie by his locker

I did it!

Did what, he asked in confusion

I have a girlfriend now

Andie: For real

Yes bro, I answered excitedly

So we headed to class, I was about to walk into the class when the principal announced the impromptu date of the big game and it was on Wednesday which was two days from today

I sat beside Jessica with Andie beside me, I was getting distracted thinking about the game, but it all became intense when she held my hand, I felt sparks in my belly.

After school we it was raining so we decided to stay a bit longer, in the meantime, Andie gave us a minute alone. We have already spent some time together and were talking about our past relationships.

Jessica: So Tripp, have you been in a relationship before?

No..., I answered, which is true anyway

Jessica: Why?

Well No one had ever liked me enough to want to date me,,.. well except for you

She smiled

So what about you, have you been in a relationship before?

Jessica: Well yeah,..but....

But what, I asked cautiously

Jessica: He..he dumped me

Why,I asked in shock

Jessica: Because I wasn’t ready to have s*x with him

What? Wait, You’re a vir..gin

Jessica: Yes

Oh.., so am I

Jessica: I love you Tripp

I do to, I said with a smile on my face

I was looking so deep into her eyes when she kissed me again but this time it was more passionate.

Then she broke the kiss and looked in the eyes and said.

You that you are are the one I wanna do this with an.....

Whoa... wha.. wait up I..I’m not ready for that yet, I said moving a little a way from her

I promise I’ll wait till you’re ready, she said with a smile.

The big game

The D Day was finally here and our team was on the winning side during the first round and few minutes later we ended up winning thanks to my smooth skills,...I think.

And I was so happy not until my mom broke the news

We’re moving Tripp

What!!!!! Why I asked in shock

I got the job in California and has already booked a flight for tomorrow morning, my mom said, making my anxiety worse

Mom I’m happy for you, but I just can’t leave.

Why, she asked almost annoyed

Cos I just tried to fit in, it isn’t fair, I said with tears rolling down my face.

I’m sorry but we have to, she said hugging me

Ok but let me tell Andie and Jessica, I said leaving

Who’s Jessica? Mom asked

My Girlfriend!!! I said walking towards their seats

I broke the news to them and they were sad, especially Jessica. But I promise to come visiting from time to time. She hugged me with tears in her eyes and kissed me deeply.

Then I went along to tell my coach which made him unhappy, but we had no choice.

The next morning, we were already dead in the plane by 8:00 but I wasn’t happy at all,

We landed and moved in to our new home, I helped my siblings moved their stuff to their rooms when I was done with mine.

My Mom loves her job and I went visiting to San Francisco two weekends in a month, the next trip I went along with my brother who was also excited only to get the most shocking news of my life......
