A Girl Nobody Wanted
Chapter 70

He removed my blouse entirely... I was just wearing a bra to cover my breasts...

He stared at my half-exposed breasts for some time. Then he started to kiss my nape again...

He was reaching further down.

He carefully placed a kiss right in the middle of my bosom, making my whole body trembled. He was letting me explore an unknown side of happiness, that I even didn't know about... I never thought someone's touch could make me this happy and fulfilled. His phone started to ring again...

He lifted his head a bit and looked at the ringing phone. But the next second, he changed his mind and buried his head in my chest, without even bothering to see who was calling him...

He was so into this, just like me... For that moment, we didn't want anything else in this world, other than each other's touch...

Drawing his lips all over my chest, he reached my belly area...

His lips felt so damn good on my naked belly. They took me to a whole new world...

God! I love you so damn much, Jake... I caressed his hair softly...

His stupid phone was ringing again. What the fu**?

Who the hell is calling? Why these people can't let us have some peace?

Lifting his head from my body, he stared annoyingly at the phone... But this time also he decided not to worry about it... Coming all the way up, he started kissing my lips once again...

It was like he is intoxicated... He was drugged by his love for me... By our love in hand with the need...

I have never seen him being this much dominated by his emotions...

His phone started to ring again... Well... This is the fourth time...

After all, what if this is an emergency? Otherwise, why would anyone call him four times, this late in the night?

"J...Jake..." I tried to remove my lips from his...

"I... I think... You should answer it..." I managed to say, holding my breath.

He sat on the bed hesitantly. He was clearly annoyed...

However, he took the phone in his hand...

"It is Shane..." he said, looking at me.

"What? Why is he calling you?" I said with shock.

"He rarely calls me. Actually, he never calls me late at night," he said, answering the phone.

"Hello..." Jake said.

I was looking at him, thinking why Shane wanted to call him...

"What?" Jake sounded surprised and angry at the same time.

"Are you sure it was them?" he again asked.

"What? where is he now?" Well, this time he looked utterly panicked. He even stood up from the bed.

God! It seems like something terrible has happened. I sat on the bed.

"No... No... Be with him... I am on my way..." he said, cutting the call.

"What is it, Jake?" I asked with a shaking voice.

"There was a fight at the university..." he said, still looking at the phone.

"What?"

"It was a bunch of guys from the Victoria team. They attacked Shane and others when they were walking towards the car park, after meeting the coach... Look, Sarah... I will explain everything later... But I have to go right now because one of them has hit Luke with a baseball bat, and he is hospitalized now!" Jake said in a hurry.

"What?" I felt like my heart stopped for a second. My poor Luke!!! Is his condition serious? God! Please... Don't be so cruel... He has done nothing wrong...

Then Jake picked his T-shirt from the bed and put it on.

"I know princess that you are worried about him. But for now, even I don't know any details. So I must go." he said.

"Yeah..." I said in a broken voice. Tears have already started coming down from my eyes...

"It is not safe to take you there... Shall I drop you at your home?" he asked. How sweet and caring is he? Even in a situation like this, he is worried about my safety...

"No, Jake... I will stay here... Don't waste time... Go quickly..." I said, getting down from the bed. I even forgot that I was not wearing a blouse.

"Okay, then... Keep the door closed. Don't open it unless it is me or Luke... Also... Get dressed..." he said, giving a look at my half-naked chest. "Okay... Please at least text me once you know how he is..." I said.

"Okay, Princess... Stay safe..." he said, quickly placing a kiss on my forehead.

Shane's POV

******

We were walking towards the car park after meeting the coach. Since the inter-university series is about to start, we had a few things to discuss with him. Since Jake couldn't make it today, it was just four of us... Luke, Bob, Glenn, and me...

Discussion with the coach dragged more than we thought. We had a very unpleasant situation at our match with Victoria's team day before yesterday.

We defeated them just 2-3 months ago as well. So when they got beat by us 3-0, the day before yesterday as well, they couldn't just stand it. They started to act very aggressively, and they made a lot of penalties as a result. Last time, they made Jake injured. This time they got two of our players injured. Fortunately, their injuries were not as serious as Jake's.

Coach wanted to discuss that incident as well... He talked worriedly. He said he has no idea how they can put the sportsmanship into that lower level.

However, after the discussion, while we were walking towards the car park, we were also talking about the same incident.

Suddenly, we got circled by some guys, and they started to fight with us. We didn't even have time to understand what was happening. It was just four of us vs nearly ten of them...

I could recognize some of them... There were some of the players from the Victoria team, and some other people I don't know. Have they hired professional thugs as well? Because those people don't look like students at all. How dare them to come to our own university, and attack us like this.

It was totally like an adventure movie... I am not just bragging, four of us fought back like heroes.

But everything turned, as one of them hit Luke with a baseball bat. Luke fell down, holding his head...

I totally lost my strength and my right mind when I saw Luke covering with blood...

He was screaming in pain... My Luke is in pain!!!

Those buggers also seemed to frighten after seeing Luke's status... So they started to run away... Bob and Glenn tried to chase them...

But I stopped them... We can't fight with all of them... On the other hand, we should focus on Luke, not about anything else.

Putting Luke in Glenn's car, we drove him to the university hospital...

I was pressing a piece of clothing to Luke's wound, which seemed useless... Blood was flowing down. The clothing was not enough...

Not just him, even I was covered with blood...

"Call... Jake..." Luke managed to say, as soon as we took him to the hospital.

The next moment he lost consciousness.

The hospital staff immediately took him to the emergency unit.

We had already called our coach as well... He was on his way... But I thought it is good to call Jake as well. Not just because Luke asked. But I was not in my right mind... I was furious, I could kill those buggers for what they did to Luke!

On the other hand, I was in pain after seeing how Luke screamed in pain...

Glenn and Bob were shocked too... They don't even know what they are talking about.

So we need someone... Someone like Jake, who can handle any situation.

I called him... But he didn't answer... What the hell?

I called him again... I called him until he answered...

Jake's POV

Luke is in ICU!

I felt totally lost...

He is still unconscious... Doctors are trying their best to stop bleeding, and keep his heartbeat and other essentials steady!

He is my friend... My very best friend and my brother too...

He is the only one who knows everything about me...

I just couldn't stand seeing my Luke in such a critical condition!

I felt guilty! Maybe all these are because of me... I didn't come to the discussion today, and let them go alone because I wanted to spend some alone time with my girlfriend... If I were there, when they attack us, maybe I could protect him... Yes... This is my fault... I betrayed my best friend... How did I do that to him? He is willing to sacrifice his life for me without even thinking twice... But I...

The doctor came out of the ICU, God knows after how long...

"How is he, doctor?" the coach asked.

"We could stop bleeding. But he is still unconscious, and his heartbeat is really week... We have to run a few tests to make sure no damage has happened internally... There is no sign of internal bleeding yet, but we can't guarantee that. He is not out of risk... We can't actually say anything right now..." The doctor's reply made my heart shattered. How long should we stay in this pain to know his status...

I just wished it is me who in the ICU not him! I can't bear this... I love him so much... I can't bear this...

Shane started hitting his head on the wall, blaming himself.

"I should protect him... But I didn't... I couldn't protect him..."

"I want to kill them... Every single one of them..." he was screaming.

Bob and Glenn had to put all their effort to stop him from hurting himself.

"Listen, boys... There is nothing we can do by acting like this... I have already informed all the relevant parties... They will take care of the matter... We can do nothing, but pray for him..." the coach said... Then the coach's phone rang...

"Yes..."

"What? What you mean by they are not there? They came to our university and hit our players... One of our key players is fighting with death right now. You have to replace them, however..." he yelled at the phone. We all were staring at him...

"Police went to their hostel... But none of them were there..." the coach said.

"Those buggers were hiding... I knew it... They don't have the backbone to face the consequences." Shane said. Then he stormed off...

Bob and Glenn ran after him...

"Where the hell you are going, Anderson?" the coach yelled... But I don't think Shane even heard him.

"I will talk to him, coach... Don't worry" I said.

"Don't let them do anything stupid. We don't want any more troubles. " the coach said.

I nodded and followed them.

Shane was about to get into a car when I approached them...

"Where are you going?" I asked.

"I just can't wait like a muppet until he gets better... Not when those buggers are hiding out there, after what they did to him... I exactly know where they are, and I am going to get them..." Shane yelled. "We should all go..." I turned around with the voice came behind me.

It seems like almost everyone in our team was there... I couldn't figure out who said that.

"What you think, Jake?" Dave asked me.

They are asking my opinion... Our coach kept his full faith in me to control the team from doing anything stupid. He is right. We have inter-university matches coming up. We can't afford to do stupid stuff. But all I could think was Luke's innocent, cheerful face... What he will do, if he is in the situation I am in right now...

There is nothing to think... He will kill those buggers...

I am going to do the same... I couldn't protect him from getting injured... But at least I am going to get revenge!

No matter what are the consequences I have to face...
