“And what are the right questions?” Sebastian asked, watching as Mikey grabbed a baseball from her bag before lying back down.

“We won’t know until you ask them,” Mikey said with a helpless shrug.

“You really are a pain in the ass,” Sebastian said as he thought about everything that he could ask her, but there was only one thing that he wanted to know.

“Did you want to go to the dance?” Sebastian asked, watching as she began rolling the ball between her hands.

“Which one?”

“The first one,” Sebastian said, watching as she seemed to think that over.

“Yes,” Mikey said, taking him by surprise. “When are you planning on spoiling me?”

“Skip,” Sebastian drawled, only to feel his lips twitch as her eyes narrowed on the move.

“You’re really going to make me wait?”

“I really am.”

CHAPTER43

April

“Faster, Campbell!” Coach Jackson yelled as Mikey somehow managed to force her legs to keep moving and-

“That’s going to leave a mark,” she found herself mumbling against the well-manicured grass when her legs gave out on her.

“Good effort, Campbell,” Coach Jackson said, and since she was currently struggling to catch her breath, Mikey settled for nodding. “I need someone to drag Campbell off the field,” he said, sounding really freaking amused for some reason.

That was followed by a heavy sigh, a muttered, “At least you didn’t pass out this time,” and Braxton grabbing hold of her ankles and dragging her back towards the bench.

“Here,” Braxton said, dropping her legs before he took off, leaving her groaning against the grass until the teenage boy who adored her took pity on her and rolled her over onto her back.

“At least you didn’t pass out this time,” Sebastian said, earning a glare as she struggled to find the will to move.

“I didn’t pass out,” Mikey managed to get out while she intensified that glare, only to end up swallowing hard and licking her dry lips as she watched Sebastian grab her water bottle and fill it up from the large cooler that the staff kept filled for them.

“What would you call it?” Sebastian asked as he took a knee by her side and carefully placed the bottle at her lips.

“Conserving my energy,” Mikey said, struggling to bite back a moan when ice-cold water hit her throat.

“And the mumbled demands for them to leave your body?” Sebastian asked as she reached up and took over holding the bottle.

“Was to establish dominance,” Mikey assured him with a firm nod.

“And it’s clearly working,” Sebastian said as several of her teammates ran past her chuckling.

“It’s all part of my plan,” Mikey said, gesturing absently towards him as she watched him drop back down on the bench, leaving her with no other choice but to lay there as she-

“I’m really starting to think they’re obsessed with you,” Sebastian said as he pulled his iPad out, drawing her attention back to the group of teenage girls currently watching her with smug smirks on their faces.

“Can you blame them?” Mikey asked with a pitying look as she focused back on Sebastian as she considered her options. Trick him into telling her or beat the hell out of him with that iPad until he caved and told her what she wanted to know.

Since she couldn’t exactly move at the moment, Mikey decided that she was going to have to do what she did best. Taking a deep breath, Mikey opened her mouth and-

“Never going to happen,” Sebastian said, not bothering to look up from whatever book that currently held his attention.

Narrowing her eyes on the boy who was toying with her emotions, Mikey said, “You promised to spoil me.”
