Dil
The bright lights nearly blind him as he walks onto the field. He and his team of about 60 young men walk over to their side of the field. Loud cheering name calling and swearing are heard from stands on their behalf. His adrenaline is pumping. He bounces on the top of his heals. His cleats crush the grass beneath him, as he gets ready for the coaches start of game speech.
A tall dark skin burly man with a mean smirk and a crooked smile comes to the center of the boys as the form a circle around him. The boys all hit the thigh pads twice and start to form a rhythm. (Think We Will Rock You). He takes off his team hat and shows his baldhead full of sweat. He looks around at his young team and takes a deep breath.
"Ya hear that boys" he says as the crowds cheer gets louder. All the boys hit their pads louder. "That's sound of victory," he says and the boys roar. As they quiet down he speaks up again. "For the next 48 minutes of your life, I want you to put all the shit aside that you may be going through, use that energy that anger and put it out on the fuckin field" The boys roar again "Because we may not know what tomorrow may bring but for tonight lets be heroes" he said the boys roar again as Tommy their team captain and Dil's big bro walks the center of the group and the coach steps back.
"Alight boys lets get this win, he says as he looks at Dil, Dil smirks back at his brother and Tommy says. "1…2…3"
The team yells "WHAT"
"123" he repeats loudly.
"WHAT"
"123"
"TIGERS" yell the boys as the starting line up runs out on the field. Tommy and the boys huddle up and Tommy gets in the middle.
"Alright boys lets hurry this fuckin game up so I can get some pussy tonight" the boys laugh in agreement and Dil rolls his eyes smirking. "We're doing a double flight pattern to left on 3, 123"
"Break" the team, says as they all leave the huddle and get into position. Dil goes to the far left, gets into position and looks to Tommy.
"Down" Tommy says and the team gets down ready to face their opponent. "Set" Dil nods at Tommy who nods to him and then he looks forward. "Hut" the ball snaps back into Tommy's hands and he gets into position to look for his open teammates.
Dil sprints up the field faster than the speed of light it seems and before long he's out run his opponent. He looks back to where Tommy should be and the ball is already thrown his way. He watches as it spirals and runs up a little while looking back to catch it. The ball floats in his hands and he runs to score the touchdown.
"TOUCHDOWN TIGERS" yells the announcer. Dil runs up to Tommy and they jump up and hit pads.
"These motherfuckers don't know what their in for" says Tommy as he hits Dil on the helmet affectionately the other team just looks lost.
Dil's sitting at the Java Lava with his brother, Kimi a few other cheerleaders and a few of their teammates. Tommy has his arm around Kimi but is totally ignoring her looks of love and affection as he retails the story of their latest victory.
"Their 45 seconds left in the game the score's 14-20 their way, who would've thought that because they were some shit throughout the whole game right bro" he says as he looks to Dil. Dil just nods. Tommy loved an audience. Dil just preferred to hang in the background.
"So I'm looking left, I'm looking right, no one is fucking around I'm like what the fuck man we're gonna fuckin lose and not be undefeated any more," the other team members nodded hanging on to his every word as if they weren't even playing the game with him.
"Then I see him. Way down right field open I couldn't fuckin believe this idiot ass team we were playing didn't see him. I dodge two linemen step up to the line of scrimmage and let one float and I'm praying like a motherfucker that Dil sees it. It goes right into his hands and we score…Crowd goes wild and we stay un de fuckin feated baby. Next up homecoming." Say Tommy and his teammates cheer.
Kimi gets closer to him as if that were even possible and says "It sure is baby and you and I are a shoe in for homecoming king and queen" she said excitedly as the girls around her squealed. Tommy ignored her and continued talking to the boys. Dil looked down at his cell waiting on a text. When one of his teammates looked over at him and said
"Hey dude who you waiting on"
"You still dating that fine ass girl from third period" asked another one of his teammates.
"Rachel?" asked Tommy. Dil blushed a little. "Yeah man she's fucking hot dude" Kimi hit him hard on his chest. "What babe, I'm just telling the truth". He said shrugging.
"You act like I'm not even here" she said glaring at him.
"Look if all you're gonna do is bitch and moan then yea I'll act like you're not even here" he said taking his arm from around her and looking straight ahead.
"Tommy, Tommy" she repeated when he continued to ignore her she pushed past him and said.
"Well fuck you then" and she went into the restroom followed by the flock of cheerleaders that came with them.
"I wish you would," yelled Tommy as she went into the restroom with the rest of the cheerleaders.
"Damn dude aren't you gonna try and talk to her" said Sean
"What the fuck am I gonna do now Sean she's in the girls bathroom dumbass" he said, "Besides she'll come back, she always does." Dil shook his head disgusted with his brother.
"You're a douche you know that" he said getting up and leaving.
"Aww Dylan I love you too buddy, tell mom I'll be home tomorrow alright I gotta make a house call" he said smirking. One of his football buddies high fived him. Dil continued to walk towards the door.
"Yeah whatever Asswhole." He said walking out the door. He never got his text so he decided to go home when his phone buzzed. He picked it up.
"Hey sexy"
"Rach Wassup"
"I was wondering if you could come by tonight, I need help with something"
"We all know you need help sweetheart," he said smirking. She laughed on the other end of the phone.
"Shut the fuck up and get over here smartass"
"As you wish" he said hanging up the phone and started for her house. When he got to her door he called her to open it, she told him it was unlocked and he went inside and upstairs. Someone covered his eyes with their hands from behind.
"Miss Me," said the person.
"Always." Said Dil as he turned around and kissed the person in question. His hands glided up their body till he found his way around their waist and pulled the person closer to him. His tongue battled for dominance with his partner as he pushed them up against a wall in the hallway. He was going to sneak his hand up their shirt when he heard someone cough interrupting them.
He broke apart from his partner and looked into their lust filled eyes, he was sure his resembled the same when he looked over to the person that had interrupted them and backed away a bit.
"Rachel, sorry" Rachel had her hands on her hips smirking at the two people in front of her.
"If you two queens are done making out I need some furniture moved around in my room, Nick you can take the dresser and Dil since I'm sure you're sore from football you can take the computer desk" she said to Dil and her older brother Nick. Nick looked over at Dil, and kissed him on the cheek.
"We'll continue this later" he said. Dil smiled and followed Rachel and Nick into her bedroom.
Dil hadn't come out to anyone except for Rachel and of course Nick knew. I mean he was the total alpha male, well next to Tommy he was the total beta male. But besides his brother he was probably the most popular football player at their high school, how would it look if he came out.
There was no way that the team would accept him and next to Nick and his family, Football was his third love, Dil wasn't ready to give that up. Nick was kind being patient and all. He was also one of the very few openly gay kids at Dil's school and he took shit for it every day almost. But Nick had tough skin and often had comebacks also.
When Dil first met Rachel, he was still considerably straight and attracted to girls. But if you ask him today he'd tell you that there was always something lurking beneath the surface of all that. Rachel and her family moved to their town about a year ago. He and Rachel instantly hit it off and started going out.
Then when it came time to meet each other's families, he introduced hers to his no problem. Tommy of course tried to hit on Rachel but she wasn't having any of that. So he let it go and she became Dil's girl. When Dil met Rachel's family he didn't even know Nick was her brother. He had rarely seen him at school and Rachel never really spoke about him in any of their conversations.
But as he got to know Nick he started to develop feelings for him, feelings that scared the shit out of him. Rachel was an awesome girlfriend, but she was also a free spirit and kind of controlling. The first time they had sex she took control and it was both their first times. He loved Rachel, but he felt as if something was missing in his life and she could sense it. Rachel one day questioned him on his sexuality when she saw him drooling at her brother. He tried to deny it at first putting up a macho front but she saw right through that.
When he finally came out and told her that he was gay she welcomed him with open arms and told him that she already knew. They had mutual break up and were still really good friends. Come to think of it she was like his best friend. And since they hung out practically all the time at school, people thought that they were still dating off and on or something.
So after much convincing on her part, Rachel help to set him up with Nick about three months ago and they were strong as ever even though their relationship was still a secret to pretty much every one. Nick had his own group of friends at school; he knew that Dil wasn't ready to come out yet so he and Dil didn't really spend that much time at school together. Rachel saw that it was hurting her brother but decided to leave that up to them.
Dil followed them inside the room and it looked as if a tornado had hit. "Rachel what the hell, why are you moving your room around at practically midnight" he asked.
" Because Dylan I'm having some friends over tomorrow and I want it to look presentable," she said sarcastically. Nick leaned over to him and said.
"More like one friend over" Rachel turned around and glared at him
"I heard that," she said "Well if you must know, I am having friends over, but only one is staying the night, Lisa," said Rachel looking around her room for what to do next.
"Lisa?" Dil questioned. Oh Rachel was also bisexual and had been since before she and Dil dated. She told Dil shortly after they began dating. But she said she'd wanted to experience what it was like to be with a boy and Dil happily obliged when he thought he was straight that is.
"Yep, her newest conquest, she wants some alone time with the lovely Lisa" said Nick making-kissing sounds, Dil laughed. Rachel picked up a pillow and threw it at them.
"Would you two shut the fuck up and help me already." Dil sighed he knew it was going to be a long night.
He ended up staying over Rachel's house that night after they finally finished her room around 3 or 4 in the morning. He kissed Nick goodbye and told Rachel good luck as he made his way home.
He went inside his house when he got he looked for his parents they were probably out visiting his grandparents. He saw Tommy's car outside so he assumed that his bro was upstairs and judging from the yells coming from Tommy's bedroom he was right. He walked upstairs quickly unnoticed by the two people in his brothers room and went inside his room; he didn't close his door and heard what they were saying.
"What do you mean you're pregnant?" yelled an angry Tommy.
"I mean just what the fuck I said Tommy I'm fucking pregnant," yelled a person that sounded like Lil. Dil stepped out of his room a little to confirm his suspicions. It was Lil. "What the fuck" he thought, he didn't even know they had been together. He stepped back in his room and listened some more.
Tommy paced around his room. "Is this the reason you won't let me touch you anymore" he asked Lil looked at him as if he were crazy.
"No ass I don't want you touching me anymore look at where the fuck it got us" she said motioning to her stomach it was barely visible but he got the idea.
"Look if that's all it is, then I'll just help you get rid of it, how much is it, like two or three hundred" Lil looked as if she had been slapped.
"How many girls have you gotten pregnant in the past?" she asked him offended.
"None, they know how to take their fucking birth control pills Lillian, now how much is it" he asked pulling money out of his pocket.
"I didn't come over here to ask you for money for an abortion you stupid dick" she yelled.
"Then what the fuck do you want Lil" he yelled back.
"I wanted to let you know that I plan on keeping this baby, with or without your help," she yelled as she started to walk out the door.
"Don't I get a fuckin say in this" he yelled after her. She turned to him briefly and said.
"I don't give a fuck what you say Tommy my mind is made up so just go fuck yourself" she yelled and ran down the stairs and out the front door. Tommy watched her go out of his bedroom door.
"Fuck" he yelled then he noticed Dil's door open. He went into his brothers room and looked over at Dil. "How much of that did you hear" he asked.
"All of it" he said not even bothering to lie.
"Look I'm gonna deal with this ok, not a word about it to mom and dad alright" Dil nodded it was Tommy and Lil's business.
"I won't say anything" Tommy nodded satisfied with that answer.
"So where were you last night, you weren't here when I got home" he asked leaning on the doorframe.
"I stayed at Rachel's"
"Damn bro you hooking up with her again" Dil shook his head. "Fucking shame man, well I gotta go meet up with Kimi I'll talk to you later and remember mums the word alright"
"Yeah later man," he said as Tommy walked out, it seems as if he wasn't the only one keeping secrets around here.
Monday morning Tommy gave Dil a ride to school and it seemed as if he forgot about the whole thing with Lil he was just as calm as ever, he didn't even mention it since that day.
"Alright bro see ya," he said as he pulled into the student parking lot.
"Later dude," he said as he got out. Rachel came up to Dil and put her arm around him.
"Don't ya just love Mondays," she asked. Nobody loved Mondays.
"I take it your little weekend hookup went well," he asked smirking.
"I beg your pardon Dylan sweetie it was not just a hook up"
"Right so you gonna call her"
"Nah she's not my type"
"Right so using her for her body, that's not a hook up at all" he said sarcastically. Rachel laughed.
"Fuck you, gotta get to class," she said as she walked off to her locker. Dil said good bye and went to his locker as well.
A bunch of his football buddies including Tommy who had Kimi underneath his arm came over to him.
"Hey dude wanna ditch 1st period and go out to the lake man," asked Sean. Tommy smirked at Kimi who kissed him on the cheek.
"Yeah lil bro, you can pick up where you left off with Rachel," he said winking at him. Dil glared at his older brother.
"Damn man you still hooking up with that girl, lucky bastard," said Sean.
"No I'm not fucking hooking up with her Tommy's just talking shit" he said as he pulled his book out of his locker. "Besides I gotta test first period so you fuck faces go on with out me" he said.
"Fine have it your way loser" said Sean. "Oh look there's Nick the flaming faggot," he said as Nick walked pass with a few of his friends, he and Dil shared a look. Before Nick said something.
"Wow Sean how long did it take you to come up with that one" he asked.
"About as long as it takes to get your boyfriends cock in your ass" he retaliated.
"Sean shut the fuck up," said Dil, surprising everyone, damn he slipped.
"Why are you taking up for this homo Dil," he asked him. "One would think you might like him," said Sean smirking. Dil paled.
"Shut the fuck up Sean," said Tommy, "Besides we all know that you're the one that likes your ass fondled" everyone laughed and Sean glared at Tommy. Nick laughed and walked away with his friends. "See ya later bro, go ace that test man, one of us has to right," Tommy said pounding Dil on the fist.
"For sure, later man" he said smiling at his big brother. Tommy could be an ass sometimes but he was still a cool big bro. Dil sighed and closed his locker as the group left following after his bro. This was going to be a long day.
