Kindle Notes & Highlights
Defenseman Engels stands a little taller and broader than the others, but still has a similar six pack/pecs thing going on and the same team mascot tattoo - I think it’s supposed to be a bison - on his right forearm. Engels’ is a little bigger than everyone else’s. Everything he does is a little bigger. A little louder. A little more annoying.
“Sorry Engels, I guess no one’s gonna cook you s’mores.” I want to tell him you don’t cook s’mores, but Nate beats me to it. “You don’t cook s’mores, idiot. You toast them.” I have to hold in a gasp. I’ve never seen anyone speak to Jones that way before, but he doesn’t even react.
“I like people who surprise you, you know. People who aren’t who you think they are.”
I gasp. Nate laughs. It’s such a nice sound, and his eyes when he laughs like that? Holy fuck!
“I’ve learnt that making plans doesn’t always work. Sometimes, having plans just disappoints you.”
The bus comes crawling down the street and Nate stands up. I want to grab his hand and pull him back down and… what? Kiss him. Yeah right. Like he’d want me to do that.
“So what? This is the first time you got a hand-job from someone else, you already score points for getting your pants off first.” My hand is still wrapped around his cock. He laughs and I bend down to kiss him, giving him a testing stroke before pulling away and asking if he wants me to go on. He nods. “Say it.” I whisper. “Yes.” Fuck. I pump his cock like it’s my own, watching him until he grabs my head and pulls it against his neck. Okay, so he’s too shy to let me watch him yet, we’ll work up to that. I whisper against his ear, “come for me,” and he unloads onto my hand, moaning my name.
It’s so weird to see Jesse fighting. I hate it. It’s not who he is at all. And I know it’s part of the sport, but I hate it. I kind of wish he’d play soccer instead. Those guys fall over if someone breathes on them.
“I love you.” He doesn’t miss a beat before he says it back. “I love you too.”
Respect Courage Determination I get it now. It’s about so much more than the game. It’s about how you live your life. How you treat people. What you do with your time. The most important thing? That whatever you do, you don’t waste it.
