When I’m signed onto the Los Angeles Rubies, I only have two goals: prove I have what it takes to play professional football, and stay far, far away from Tahegin Ellingsworth—a fan-favorite NFL cornerback, the League’s golden boy, and the most ridiculously happy-go-lucky guy to ever exist. Everyone loves and flocks to him, but I want nothing more than for him to disappear. Seriously. Off the face of the Earth would be great.
I recognize Tahegin for the privileged spoiled brat he is—even if his actions, both in public and behind closed doors, perplexingly seem to be the polar opposite.
Unfortunately, it becomes impossible to ignore him when we are forced to room together at away games for the duration of my rookie season. Late night conversations morph into a friendship, then possibly into something more. I’m beginning to feel things for him that I have never felt for anyone before, but as problems arise one after another, the universe apparently determined to keep us apart, I’ll have to choose whether or not this potential relationship is worth the repercussions.
