"Hey I missed you" he called to the girl who'd joined him on the bleachers.
"Me too" the girl agreed happily accepting the kiss he was offering, even if it was forbidden.
They'd been meeting in secret for the past couple of weeks. At first they both fought tooth and nail to avoid the obvious attraction that was growing between them but now they were powerless to stop it.
It all came to a head one day when they both were late leaving the locker room. The rest of their team had left earlier and the two of them were alone, each dawdling with whatever it was they were doing. They tried the chatting thing like friends do, well that's what they were supposed to be after all wasn't it but it was clear that they both had something on their minds other than talking.
A petty fight erupted regarding a new play and before they knew it they were locked at the lips.
"What was that?" she asked catching her breath. She knew this was extremely wrong but there was something about him that made her want him so badly.
"I don't know, all I know is that whenever I'm near you, all I can think about is kissing you" he admitted giving her the lopsided grin she used to think was stupid. Now she found it sexy.
"Me too" she replied sinking down to the ground.
He sat down in front of her.
"So what do we do now?" he asked. They'd kissed, there was no denying that, but how could they tell anyone about it? How could they admit to their respective partners they'd cheated.
"I don't know!" she exploded feeling angry, exhilarated, guilty and happy all at once. She wasn't sure how that was even possible but there it was.
He shrunk back a little. That wasn't quite the reaction he was expecting.
Come to think of it, he had no idea what he was expecting. The kiss wasn't supposed to happen, ever.
"I've got to go" she said springing to her feet and making a bolt for the door.
He stood up also.
"Wait!" he called.
She stopped, her hand still on the doorknob.
He stopped unsure of what to say, he just knew that he had to get her to stay.
She turned around and faced him.
"We can't tell them, it'll crush them" she disclosed.
He nodded slowly, he knew his girlfriend would be shattered by this, even if it was a one time thing, a mistake, if that's what you'd call it. She'd never forgive either of them.
Her boyfriend wouldn't forgive them either. This was too big a betrayal to forgive.
They had to keep quiet for the sake of friendships, if they were broken then their whole world would come crashing down.
And nobody wanted that.
So there in that locker room, they made an agreement. They would keep this secret to themselves, take it to their graves if you will.
It was hard at first, the guilt eating away at each of them whenever they were in the same room as their partners. But for the sake of their friendships, they kept up the charade.
But once again they found themselves alone together, this time at a team party. Every single one of their friends, including their partners, had retired to bed and they were the only ones left standing.
"No! This can't be happening again, we agreed!" she backed away from his warm embrace.
"I know" he replied softly feeling slightly rejected. He knew it was a bad idea but he couldn't get his body or heart to obey his head. He was drawn to her.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't be yelling at you, its just as much my fault" she softened her expression.
"Its okay, I'm freaking out too" he admitted.
"Why does this keep happening? I know what I'm doing is wrong, but I just can't help it" she sighed wishing she had the strength to tell herself 'no'.
"I know how you feel" he replied wishing the exact same thing.
They made a pact that night to never let it happen again. Twice they could deal with but any more and they'd have to tell.
The pact worked fine until it happened a third time, and a fourth and then a fifth and by that stage, they could no longer deny their feelings for each other.
Which brings them to the bleachers some three weeks later where they knew that no gym classes were being held out there and no sports teams would be training. More importantly, they knew their partners would be busy in class.
"So I was thinking, with everyone so busy with the school musical, we could take a trip down to the lake just the two of us" he suggested nuzzling into her neck.
She grinned "That would be wonderful!" she really liked the idea of spending a decent amount of time alone with him, without the fear of anyone catching them.
"That it would my dear" he laughed and pulled her in for another scorching kiss.
This set them both off into a tangent of lust and need and their kisses grew hotter, heavier and hungrier with each one.
In fact they were so wrapped up in each other that they didn't see the lone jogger making their way around the track, heading towards the bleachers.
The jogger was too absorbed in what they were doing that they didn't notice the couple on the bleachers until after they'd started jogging up the steps. By then it was too late.
By the time recognition kicked in, it was too late to plead ignorance. The reality of the situation was laid out for all to see.
"Oh my god!" she gasped covering her mouth with her hands. She could not believe what she was seeing.
"Oh no" was the response she got when the couple broke apart and realised what was going on. They'd been caught.
"I can explain!" he reached out for her but she was having none of it. She turned and tried to hurry away.
The look on her face would be one that he'd never forget.
"Oh!" she gasped when she realised what was about to happen. Her wide-eyes met his and then her world went black.
"Oh my god!" he exclaimed and rushed down the bleachers to where her fallen body lay.
"Is she?" her voice reminded him of why he was here.
He reluctantly held two fingers to her neck praying that there would be a pulse.
"No" he sighed with relief.
"We'd better call an ambulance" she said reaching into her bag for her cell phone.
He nodded feebly and turned his attention back to the girl lying in front of him.
How could he do this to her? He knew this was all his fault and now she had to suffer more than necessary for his actions.
okay so this was a random idea that just popped up into my head, feedback would be appreciated. I haven't abandonded my other stories, just needed to get some inspiration back is all.
