Choosing Between My Hot Stepbrother Or His Rival My Bestfriend - Chapter 67: Chapter 67

Liam Mayor
I woke up early the next morning or should I say that I couldn't sleep cause I had to watch her the entire night, I could not sleep cause the thought of her sleeping on another guy's chest was enough to keep me awake the entire night and the fact that she's constantly thinking that I'm in love with someone else that is not her is not to drive me crazy. This little devil is literally the most dumb pumpkin I've ever seen in my entire life.
She kept on blabbing to her friend that I'm in love with another girl while her pictures were literally all over my room and she kept on saying that I have another girl's name tattooed on my body and I kept on wondering why the hell can she not connect the dots, is she intentionally punishing me?
Look at her sleeping so peacefully while I can barely even sleep and it's all because of her. I kissed her forehead and stood up from the bed. I gently left the room and closed the door cause I did not want to wake her up. The basketball championship match is in two days time, and after the match comes the first semester exams, but I'm not worried about the damn exams cause right now the only thing that I care about is the match.
I got back to my room and got ready, it was 6AM in the morning. I did my morning routine like washing my face and brushing my teeth. I walked back to my room and put on a matching white jersey, a white Prada sneakers and a white headband around my head.
I took my ball that was laying by the corner, and my phone was already ringing, though I could guess who the caller is, so I swipe on the green icon
“On my way” I muttered and hung up, I left my room and taking one last glance at Taylor's door I left the mansion, five meters away from my Lamborghini Aventador I pressed the remote and the car door opened on its own, I got into the car, closed the door and speed off.
I've always enjoyed driving and when it comes to early morning driving it's more like therapy for me. It always helps me to clear my head whenever I have a lot to think about. After driving for sometime I finally got to the basketball court where I'll be practicing with my friends, I stepped down from the car, with the ball in my hand, I was literally holding it with my index finger while I roll it around my finger,
I looked around and those annoying friends of mine still haven't arrived, I decided to practice alone, not until a ball suddenly landed at my feet, I gently turned to see who it is and as soon as him my face scrunch up in anger, I looked at the ball he threw at me and smirk,
“Hi Liam, I'm Chris, Kelly's friend, we are on the other basketball team, guess you know me right?”
I looked at the hand he extended for a handshake,
“Hmmm” I nod and shook his hand
“Hey I'm Ben, Kelly's friend also’’
“Nice to meet you” I replied shaking his hand
“Never knew you came here too” The annoying motherfucker said to me, I ignored him and turned to throw my ball into the basket, and it went right into it.
He threw his ball towards me and I got it with one hand,
“Why don't we play a game, within the next three minutes whoever wins will own Taylor”
I smirked and threw the ball back to him
“She's not some property you can own put some respect to her name”
“Aish, stop making me mad nigga we both know you're scared cause I'm going to win”
“Go play with kids, I'm not one of them”
“Just say you're afraid you're going to lose to me”
I ignored the idiot and brought out a stick of cigarette and a lighter from my jersey pocket as I light it and began to smoke heavily,
“Why would I be afraid to lose to you when you're not even worth the try, Taylor do not even like you, can't you see you're wasting your time, just keep on being her best friend, you're good at that” I smirked, his mood changed immediately, the idiot wanted to come fight me but his friends pulled him back,
“What do you think you're doing we are literally a team now, so no fighting, we can't have you both fighting during the match” Chris said to him, I scoffed, he should have let him come to me, I've been wanting to give the idiot a blue face for a long time.
At that same time Eden and Ethan drove in
“What's going on here?” Ethan asked walking towards me
“Is anyone causing trouble?” Eden asked balling his fist and getting into savage mode,
“Are you good, or should we fight?” Ethan asked, I know that whenever he's calm and calculative like this it means he's preparing to break heads and bones,
“Nhhh everything is okay”
“Are you sure about that?” He asked and tried walking up to Kelly but I grabbed his hand stopping him
“It's cool let's just practice”
“Yes, let's practice together!” Chris yelled
“Are you good with that?” Eden turned to ask me,
I stared at Kelly and sighed,
“Sure why not, we are a team for now”
“I love you my brother” Chris blew me a kiss,
“Yooo, let's go!” Eden threw his ball in the air and we began to play.
Hours later, I was sitting in one of the long bench, we were done practicing and Ethan came back with three cold sodas, he gave one to Eden and one to me, Eden's phone began to ring so he stood up to go take the go while Ethan sat beside me,
“Ethan?”
“Hmm”
“Can I ask you something?”
“Do you even need my permission, it's unlike you” He smiled,
“Hmm, you know me so well. About Taylor's friend, do you hate the little guy?”
“Hate? Nhh that's far from it, you can just say I'm enjoying teasing him”
“Teasing him?”
“Hmmm, teasing him”
