A Girl Nobody Wanted
Chapter 47

"Oh God! Jake, how you became this sexy?" one of the other girls screamed.

"I am thinking, how will it be to kiss those lips..." another one screamed.

Well, I can tell you how it felt to kiss those lips, girl... It felt like a dream, nothing can beat the warmth of his lips...

"I am going to get an autograph from him today..." one girl said.

"We all are going to get autographs from him..." another one replied.

"I am not going to get his autograph on a piece of paper..." the first girl said again. She was the same girl who said she needs to marry my Jake...

"Then..." another girl asked in total surprise.

"On my b**bs!!!!" that girl screamed...

Her friends cheered!!!

What the hell? I just wanted to grab that bi**h from her ponytail and slap her face... How dare her to even think about something like that about my Jake...

It will be the end of your fantasies, bi**h...

He hates when girls throw themselves at him, he will be furious if something like this happened.

Having a boyfriend like him is not an easy task... I haven't thought about it until now... So many girls dream about him. It is like loving a celebrity... I have to bare all of these and get used to hearing all the dirty things other girls would talk about him... Poor me... The game has resumed when I am drowned in my own thoughts.

I think staying one goal ahead of the Victoria team made our players more energetic. But the Victoria team was also at a really good pace. The ball was mostly with our players getting passed from player to player, but it was too hard to score a goal again... I think their defenders are very talented.

However, one time Victoria team was so closed to score a goal, and at the last second, Shane was able to turn the ball in another direction. The whole stadium stood up with awe... That was such a brilliant level of goalkeeping... No wonder, he is the best goalkeeper our university has ever produced. I guess no one even thought that he could defend it, everything happened so quickly, and when I was expecting to see the ball in the goal, it was not...

I felt really proud of my brother... He is giving his heart and soul to this sport, and it serves him exactly as he needs...

The game was going on, and it was so close to the half break. Now the match is even more intense. Victoria's team was like, ready to do anything to score a goal...

Anyway, the game hit the half time, while we are one goal ahead.

Sally went to grab something to drink.

I didn't even feel like getting something to drink. I think I was too nervous even for that. Don't know how they manage to beat their nervousness in the pitch and focus on the game? Maybe that's something that comes with their practice...

I just hope odds are in our favor for the rest of the match too. But will Jake be able to score two more goals as he said? It looks pretty impossible with their defense. I wish I could see him now, even for a minute, I mean not a few meters away from me... I wish I can be in his arms for just a minute...

"This is for you..."Sally said, handing me a can of coca-cola.

"Oh! thank you...But how you managed to buy this, fast? I thought there will be a lot of people..." I said, wondering.

"Yeah... There were a lot of people..." she said, smiling.

"But I know the guy who sells these..." she added.

"Oh, that's nice..." I replied, smiling.

"Sarah, can I ask you something? Please don't think I am trying to look into your personal life or anything, okay?" she said.

"Yeah... You can ask anything..." I said with a bit of confusion. Is she going to ask something about Jake?

"You are a friend of Luke, right?" she asked after a small pause.

"Luke... Yeah..." There is no use of telling lies, I think everyone in the university knows that Luke is my friend. Because he always talks to me whenever he saw me, and he eats with me whenever possible. Now, he even sits near me in lectures...

"I have never seen he lets a girl get closer to him as he does for you..."

I was staring at her, trying to figure out what she was trying to say.

"Are you two having something, other than friendship?" she asked hesitantly.

"What? Oh! no..." I said involuntarily.

"He is a good friend, there is nothing else..." I added after that.

"Does he have an affair with someone else?" she asked.

"As far as I know, he is not having an affair with anyone..." I replied.

"Hmm... You are not lying to me, are you?" she asked again.

"Of course not..." I assured.

"Look, Sarah... Please don't get me wrong. I like Luke..." she said, leaving me shocked.

"I think, like is not the correct word... I love him, Sarah... I love him so much, for many years..." she said. She sounds so desperate, which reminds me, my self in the past.

"We went to the same high school. He is so handsome and cheerful. I found him totally different from all the other guys I knew. I don't know when I started loving him... But since high school, I was totally obsessed with him. He hasn't even spoken more than 100 words with me in this entire time. Even the things he talked with me were related to academics..."

He has talked with you relating to academics, Sally... I was not even that lucky...

"Does he know, how you feel about him?" I asked.

"God! No!!! I was too afraid to let him know that... I am not ready to take any chance with him, Sarah... I want this to work out between us, for real..." she said instantly.

"I know he hates girls throwing themselves at him. So, I don't want to be one of them... Even though I come to every match he plays just to watch him, I never go even close to him. Even to get an autograph..."

This girl truly is another Sarah... She seems to have the same feelings I have. The only difference is she has them for Luke, not Jake...

I know there are a lot of girls dream about Luke, but this is the first time a girl talked about it with me... Hearing her confession after I heard my brother's confession about Luke made me totally lost.

"Sarah, you are the only one who knows about my feelings other than me... I have never talked about these even with one of my close friends... I love him that much, Sarah... I don't want to let anything goes wrong..." she said.

"But I can't just stay far away from him, and watch until I lose him... I have to let him know about my feelings... But to be honest, I don't know how..."

I was looking at her, worriedly... I feel you, girl...

"What can I do for you, Sally?" I asked, kindly.

"Sarah... Since he is close to you... Maybe you can make me an opportunity to get close to him..." she said, looking right into my eyes. Her eyes were filled with hope...

This is such a dilemma... My brother and this girl loves the same person... It seems both of them love him so much... To whom I should support?

Anyway, Shane asked me to stay away from his problems... So I can't talk about him with Luke...

But this girl is clearly asking for my help... It is easier for me to talk with Luke about a girl than about a guy, isn't it? Especially about a girl who is beautiful and sweet...

I don't really know what Luke feels about her... Sometimes I feel that Luke loves someone so much... But he never has given me even a hint on who that is... Sometimes, it can be this girl... There is a very high possibility of this girl having a chance with him than Shane has any chance with Luke...

God!! These two people have put me in big worry...

"Sarah..." Sally shook my head as I was just so connected to my own thoughts.

The game also has started...

"Look, Sally... I don't know how he feels about you or anything... But I will help you..." I said, holding her hand.

"Thank you!!! Thank you a lot!!!" she hugged me so tightly.

We both laugh at her spontaneous reaction...

She is really in love with him... You are such a lucky fellow, Luke... You are loved by so many people, and you totally deserve it...

I thought while looking at Luke in the filed.

I was pulled out of my thoughts as Victoria's team scored a goal against us. The ball went just an inch away from Shanes's fingertips to the net...

The whole ground was echoed with cheers for the Victoria team...

Shane looked so pissed off... But he tried his best, didn't he? That is the nature of the game...

He was just kneeling down in front of the goal, looking miserable...

Then Luke came from somewhere, and he ruffled Shane's hair and offered his hand to Shane... Shane stood up, holding Luke's hand... Luke told something to him... Maybe something to cheer him up...

Luke is always cheering up his fellow players and being supportive. But this is the first time I have seen him, cheering up, Shane... Or maybe I was so focussed on Jake all the time, and I missed what other players were doing in the field... However, Shane was back to his usual spirit and game resumed...
