Large white hands molded the caramel colored globes and Lauren smiled and licked her lips. Zach's lips then traveled over her navel and swirled the jewelry from her piercing with his tongue. His hands stayed on her breasts as he spread her legs with his chin and ate her pussy like a five star meal. Lauren arched her back at the sensation and placed her hands over Zach's. "Are you gonna cum for me?" Zach stopped to ask. Lauren whimpered at the withdrawal of his tongue and squeezed his head between her legs. "Don't stop. Please." she begged as he delved his tongue back into her glistening core. She nearly cried as she came on his tongue and came again as he slurped up her running juices. "Are you ready to fuck me?" she said after she came down from the mind altering orgasms. "You need me inside you baby?" Zach teased as he gave her clit one last lick and crawled up her body. "You know I do." she smiled and reached into the nightstand and grabbed a condom. She handed it to Zach and he quickly ripped it open and placed it on his achingly hard cock. Within seconds he was inside Laura and fucking her like a wild animal which was one of the things she loved about him. He always ravished her and had been pleasing her to no end in the nine months they had been together. She wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him tightly to her and Zach whispered in her ear as he fired away at her. "Your shit is so good baby." he whispered nibbling on her ear and neck. "I could never get tired of fucking you." She cried out as he stabbed her with another inch of his growing cock. Stretched to the max Lauren came and pulsated so hard from his brutal attack on her pussy causing Zach to pull out and spurt his seed on her stomach. "Shit." he moaned and rolled off Lauren. "The condom broke." he told her and grabbed her hand and kissed it. "I really wanted to come inside you. Can you start taking the pill?" he asked and Lauren rolled on her side and faced him and smiled. "I think we can arrange that." she kissed him and looked over his shoulder at the clock. "Shit! I'm gonna be late!" she yelled and jumped out of bed. She quickly showered and Zach sat in the bathroom and watched her as she dressed, applied her make-up and re-did her hairstyle which Zach had ruined from their previous night's antics. "Are we still on for Friday?" she smiled and stared at Zach. She admired his beautiful face that deserved to be on the cover of magazines. He stood and walked behind her. He hugged her tightly and almost instinctly she rubbed her ass against his erection. He moaned and kissed the back of her neck. "I'll give you a call tomorrow after I check my schedule OK." Lauren pouted and Zach spun her to face him and he kissed her lips. "I'm not blowing you off sweetie. I'll definitely see this weekend. You know I can't go long with being inside you." He kissed her deeply and licked her full bottom lip when he pulled away. "I'm gonna get dressed. I will see you later." Zach gave Lauren one last kiss and started to walk out the bathroom. Laura laid a resounding smack on his bare ass and Zach spun to her and gave her a devilish grin. "Keep that up and you're gonna have to call in sick." Lauren fakes a cough and a smile appears on her gorgeous face. "Oh, you are evil." he smiles and lunges at her. He picks her up and carries her to the bed bride style and ripped off the suit she had just put on less than 30 minutes ago. When Lauren was completely naked Zach placed on a condom for what he hoped will be the last time. He slammed into her causing Laura to gasp to catch her breath. "Oh sweet God!" she cried as Zach screwed her as if it was his last day on Earth. "You wanted this!" he growled and pushed her legs up to her chest. Zach relieved his weight from her body, sat up and watched his dick slide into her sweet brown and pink pussy. He slowed down his pace and enjoyed watching Lauren writhe in pleasure and a little pain. She grabbed the headboard and Zach leaned back over her body and engulfed her mouth with his. "Come inside me!" she screamed feeling her pussy contract and Zach felt immense pleasure as his balls were drained and he shot into Lauren the way he wanted to. He collapsed on top of Lauren and she lovingly ran her fingers across his scalp that held his short buzz haircut. She broke out laughing when she heard the soft snores escape him. She closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep since she was trapped in bed underneath Zach's 6'1, 195 pound body. Lauren woke from her coma-like state at the sound of her cell phone ringing. Zach was still asleep on top of her. "Zach." she whispered and shook him. "Ready for round three?" he said groggily and Lauren pushed him away. "My phone." she sat up causing Zach to roll over off her. She got out of bed and made no attempt to cover her naked body as she grabbed her purse. She fished her phone out and answered. "Hello? Oh, hi Sheila. No, I just have a little head cold, nothing serious. Yes, I'll be ready to present the McDonough file tomorrow. OK I will. See you tomorrow." she said to her assistant. She hung up the phone and felt Zach grab her. She smiled as he wrapped his arms around her body. "I gotta go babe. If not I'll be late and coach'll have my ass on a silver platter." Zach smiled and then kissed her shoulder and reluctantly released her. She watched him gather his clothes from the previous night and pull them on. He flashed a smile to Lauren and headed out of her bedroom. When she heard the door open and close she sighed and cleaned up the mess they had made last night in their trail of passion. While she cleaned she reminisced about the day that she had met Zach almost a year ago. *****************************FLASHBACK*************************************** Lauren had been working for a sports agency and was in charge of soliciting college athletes as well as unsigned athletes to the agents in charge of promoting deals into the major leagues. She had been working with the company for only seven months; straight out of college. During those seven months she had made enough contacts to get invited to a celebration party for NBA's newest star, Keith Platt's draft. Lauren had become good friends with the agent who signed him, Greg Thoms, and since he was also attending the party they decided to ride together. Greg parked his Porsche on the curb of Lauren's building at 8:30. He got out of the beauty and walked inside the security guarded building and got on the elevator and rode to the third floor. He got off and walked to Lauren's door and rung the doorbell. "It's open!" he heard her yell and he walked inside. He whistled as he took in her feung shei. "Nice place!" he yelled and turned to face the hallway leading to the bedroom and bathroom hearing Lauren's footsteps. His mouth dropped at the sight of her. She looked stunning in a tight yellow and brown dress that looked magnificent against her light brown skin tone. Her hair, that was usually in tight curls, was straightened and laid softly against her shoulders. Brown knee length boots added three inches to her 5'7 frame. "Lauren..." he moaned and his eyes jetted across her body. "Do I look all right?" she asked smiling. "You look absolutely stunning!" he said approaching her. "You sure you're single? How any man could let you slip through his fingers is beyond me." Lauren smiled at the compliment and politely pushed past him to retrieve her purse which was lying on the couch. "Greg, these days men don't want relationships. All they want is a quick fuck and they're on their way." she said bluntly and turned to stare at Greg. "Excuse my French." She smiled and waved him to the door. "Let's go." Greg followed her outside and they rode the elevator to the main floor. Greg opened the door to his car for Lauren and she slid easily into the compact convertible. Greg got into the driver's seat and headed to the Grand Pierre Hotel Plaza. It was 9:30 when they arrived and the valet driver helped Lauren out of the car when Greg parked. "Thank you." she smiled to the handsome young man. Greg tossed his keys to the driver and he took Lauren's arm and they walked inside to the room rented out for the party. "Wow!" Lauren exclaimed as they entered the party. The room was decked out with a fully stocked bar, a huge dance floor, a stage complete with a band giving Lauren the impression a celebrity musician would make an appearance and do a set. The room was nearly full as Greg leaned into Lauren. "Do you want a drink?" He had to yell over the music even though he was standing right next to her. "Oh, no thank you. I want to be sober tonight." she told him and he excused himself to the bar. Lauren looked around and stared at the men who were eyeing her and concluded that ALL the men in the room were staring at her even the DJ. She almost felt like Cinderella but then she caught the jealous glances from all the females. She smiled to shake off the nervous feeling and headed to an empty table. Six men flooded to the table and introduced themselves. Half of the men were unsigned athletes who saw her enter with Greg and were looking for a "hook up" but she easily disregarded them; she wasn't there to work. For the next hour she turned down offer after offer to dance or be bought a drink. Growing tired she walked to the bar and took an empty seat next to a white guy. "What can I get you gorgeous?" the bartender asked and leaned over the counter and was inches away from her face. Lauren leaned back and ordered a coke. The bartender placed her drink in front of her. Lauren took a sip and winced at the strong flavor. "I asked for a coke. This is a rum and coke." "This is a bar sweetheart. That'll be $6." The bartender flashed a smile and Lauren frowned. "I'm not drinking this and I'm definitely not paying for it!" she screamed. "It's OK. I got it." The man sitting next to Lauren said to prevent an arguement and pulled out his wallet and placed a 10 dollar bill on the counter. "Keep the change." Lauren turned to face him and she wished she hadn't. Never in her life had she seen a man more gorgeous. If David Beckham had a twin she was surely sitting next to him. He smiled at her and she extended her hand. "Lauren Stephens." He gripped her hand tightly. "Zach Lomax. Pleasure to meet you." He released her hand and downed the rest of his drink. "How do you know Keith?" he asked and stared into her eyes. "He's represented by Greg Thoms and we work for the same company but I was invited by his girlfriend Ginger. How do you know him?" "We went to high school together. He was the star basketball player and I was the star quarterback." Zach explained. "Oh, so you're a athlete. Have you been signed to the NFL? You should really talk to Greg. He could really help you." Lauren felt herself babble and stopped when Zach frowned. "Nah. I really only play for my scholarship. Couldn't afford college otherwise. Only got about a year to go until I graduate and then I focus on my career as a marketing executive." Lauren smiled that he wasn't the type of athlete that felt the only thing that matter was their shot at the majors. Lauren and Zach spent the next hour and a half talking at the bar. They were interrupted when Ginger and Keith walked up to them. Keith greeted Zach while Ginger hugged Lauren. "I've been looking for you all night girl." Ginger smiled and Lauren noticed she had her braces removed. She also had dyed her naturally dark hair fiery red and it looked amazing against her tanned skin. "Enjoying the party?" Lauren was enjoying her conversation with Zach more than the party. "No complaints." She shrugged her shoulders and threw a playful smile at the three surrounding her. "Who's performing tonight?" she asked Keith pointing to the stage seeing the live band setting up. "Oh! I got Lupe Fiasco to come through and entertain the crowd." Keith told her. He stared at the diamond covered watch on his wrist and kissed Ginger. "I gotta go and greet him. He should be here by now." He clapped hands with Zach and gave him a man-hug. "I'll catch up with you later." Keith walked away and Ginger sat in the empty seat next to Lauren. "You look amazing!" Ginger complimented. "God I wish I could wear something like that." she said a little self conscience. Ginger was a pretty girl but she always downed herself for weighing 200 pounds. "Hey why don't we go get something to eat. Zach has kept me hostage over here for so long my stomach is growling." Lauren laughed and playfully pinched Zach's arm. Ginger smiled and nodded her head. The two women left their seats and headed to the buffet table. They grabbed a plate and ate while talking about small insignificant things. After their plates were discarded Keith appeared on stage and introduced Lupe Fiasco. Everyone applauded and crowded the dance floor to dance as Lupe started to performed "Kick Push". Keith had exited the stage and was behind Ginger as she and Lauren had begun dancing. Ginger looked happy as Keith enveloped her in his arms. Lauren danced alone for the rest of the song but as "Superstar" began Lauren felt a hard body against her back and a hard erection against her butt. She swung to her dance partner about to clock him for getting too close for comfort when she saw Zach standing there. She sighed, a little in relief, and allowed him to pull her close to him. She could feel the hardness of his abs against her back, playing football definitely kept him fantasstic shape. As they danced Zach's hands were glued to Lauren's hip as they swayed to the beat. His breathing increased as her hands curled around his neck. Lauren could feel Zach pushing her off the dance floor. Minutes later they were outside in the cool air and Zach had attacked her lips. He planted kisses on her neck when he pulled away and Lauren felt her knees buckle. "I knew you would taste as good as you look." he whispered in her ear and squeezed her tightly against him. "I want you." "We are at a hotel." Lauren suggested and Zach pushes her back and she sees a disturbed look on his face. She was about to apologize when he spoke. "No, I want to do this right. You're better than a fuck in a hotel room." he said and gave her a quick but sensual kiss. "I gotta go." He reached in his pocket and pulled out his cell phone and handed it to Lauren. She quickly punched in her number and handed Zach back his phone. Zach handed his ticket to the valet and a few minutes later his GMC Yukon was brought to the curb. He gave Lauren one last kiss before getting into his SUV and driving off. *********************************PRESENT************************************** The sound of the doorbell brought Lauren back to the present. It was nearly noon and Lauren wasn't expecting anyone today. She walked pulled on some clothes and walked to the door. She opened it and saw Keith standing there. "Hey. What are you doing here?" she asked as he kissed her cheek as he walked inside. "I came to drop off the tickets to Saturday's game for Zach. I would've dropped them off at his place but I was over in this area." He handed Lauren the envelope and smiled. "Oh, OK well I'll call him and let him know I have the tickets." She turns and places the envelope on the coffee table. "Hey can I ask you something?" Keith asks and Lauren turns back to face him. She nods her head and Keith walks closer to her and grabs her hand. "I was wondering if you were doing anything next Friday night?" he asked and Lauren raised her eyebrow in speculation and removed her hand from his grasp. "See, I have this movie premiere to attend and I really need a date." "Umm, why aren't you taking Ginger? Didn't you two get engaged last week?" She folded her arms across her chest. Keith held back a laugh as he takes a seat on her couch. "That's the lie she's been telling. I will never marry that gold digger." he scoffed and Lauren was about to chew his ass out but he spoke again. "From the day I got signed she's been spending my money left and right. She quit her job and won't do shit but shop and run her mouth. Nah, see I need a woman like you. Smart, sexy, makes good money and I know your shit is good. Listen baby, say the word and Ginger is history. Zach aint getting drafted. He can't take care of you like I can." Lauren wanted to drop kick his ass. How dare he proposition her to not only betray Ginger, who she considered a good friend, but Zach as well. Even though Keith was very attractive, standing at 6'3, 175 pounds, skin the color of peanut butter and had a smile that could make any girl drop her panties, Lauren wasn't that type of girl. She liked Keith as a friend but he was too damn cocky for her. And now that line of friendship was definitely crossed now. "Keith I don't know who you think you are but you need to get the hell out of my face and my house before my foot gets permanently lodged in your ass!" she screamed and Keith smirked even though he was a little shocked. He stood and inched toward her. "You'll come around." he said and turned to walk out the door. Lauren slammed it when he was completely out and locked the door. She huffed as she went into her room to finish her cleaning. Friday Night Lauren had attended Zach's football game that night and cheered loudly at each touchdown that Zach made. He looked so good in his green and orange uniform and she was the envy of the girls at Mecca State University who were pining over Zach as she hugged him tightly in the parking lot and congratulated him on the win. Zach loved showing Lauren off and kissed her passionately right then and there. "Go home and change and I'll come by and get you. We'll go to dinner." Zach said after releasing her lips and Lauren nodded. Zach jumped in his car and headed home to change and Lauren did the same. An hour and a half later she was sitting across from Zach at her favorite restaurant, Donnelly's. She was looking stunning in a white tube dress, white sandals and she had her hair back in its curly state. Zach was dressed to match her in a white button up shirt and black slacks. He stared at Lauren as she picked at her dinner. "Babe, are you OK?" he asked concerned. "Huh? What?" she asked snapped from her daze. "I asked if you were all right." he repeated. "Oh, yeah baby. I'm fine. Just a little stressed from work." she lied. She was stressed but not from work. It had been four days since Keith had confessed his feelings for her and he had been calling her at least 10 times a day. She had even bailed on coming to the home he shared with Ginger when she invited her for dinner a few nights prior. "Did you enjoy the game?" "Yeah. You played great tonight." she smiled and careesed his hand across the table. "Did you bring the tickets to the Keith's game?" he asked and took a bite of his chicken dinner. "I'm sorry. I forgot them. I'll get them when you drop me off at home." "You don't want me to spend the night?" he asked disappointed. "Not tonight honey. I promise I'll make it up to you." She forces a smile and after they finish their dinner Zach pays the bill and they head to her apartment. Lauren stops in front of her door with Zach standing next to her. "Thank you so much for dinner." she says and faces him. He smiles his thanks and leans in to kiss her. "You sure you don't want me to spend the night?" he almost begs when he pulls away from their soft embrace. He pushes her against the door and grinds his pelvis into her. "Positive. Let me get those tickets for you." Lauren opens the door and grabs the envelope with the game tickets and hands it to Zach. "I'll give you a call tomorrow." She plants a kiss on his lips and closes the door. Love in the Leagues Ch. 01 Saturday Night The next night Zach meets Keith at the arena for the big game. He had invited one of his college buddies to the game since he knew Lauren wasn't a big fan of basketball. "Hey, where's Lauren?" Keith asks Zach as they greet each other. "She wasn't feeling well." Zach told him. "Oh, well she's gonna miss one hell of a game." Keith smiled hiding a mischievous look. "Listen, I invited a friend to tonight's game and she's sitting next to you so could you keep her company for me until after tonight's game." Keith then walked away before Zach could answer. Walking to his seat Zach saw a blonde bombshell sitting in the seat next to his. She was very pretty and she was wearing a dangerously short and tight light green dress that matched her eyes. When she saw Zach she smiled. "Hi, I'm Angelia." she introduced herself when he sat down. "Nice to meet you. I'm Zach and this is Ben." Angelia shook both of their hands and smiled widely at Ben. "Do all you hunks travel in packs?" she giggled and brushed back her hair which had fallen into her eyes. Zach then noticed Keith walk over to them before the game started. "Hey, keep your hands to yourself or I will tell Lauren." he joked and leaned over to Angelia. He slipped something in her hand and kissed her cheek. He left and seconds later the game started. Lauren had decided to watch the basketball game that night just so she could possibly catch a glimpse of Zach on the screen. She still found it hard to believe that this gorgeous man was with her. She had never dated a white guy before and this was also a new experience for Zach as well but being with each other just felt so right to both of them. She felt a sudden sensation between her long and slender legs at the thought of Zach. She was now regretting not letting him come in the night before to fuck her senseless. It had been almost a week since he was inside her and she needed a fix. When she saw that half-time had started she picked up her phone and called Zach. Zach breathed a sigh of relief when he felt his phone vibrate. Angelia had been talking non-stop since half-time started and he was beginning to grow tired of her Olive Oil voice. He grinned when he saw Lauren's name on the screen and excused himself. He walked to the lobby and answered the call. "Hey beautiful." "Baby, can you stop by after the game?" she immediately asked. "Ben and I were going to an after party at Keith's. Do you want me to come scoop you up so you can tag along?" he asked. "No!" she yelled. She sat up and pulled her fingers from her wet pussy. "Zach." she moaned and Zach felt a stirring in his pants as she purred his name. "Lauren, you know saying my name like that only means one thing." he said as he adjusted his cock. "Come by after the game. I've got an itch only you can scratch big boy." "I'm on the way right now." he moaned. "No, no." she stopped him but let out a small laugh. "Enjoy the game honey. We'll have plenty of for that later tonight. All night." "All right but I will hold you up to that so go on and get your rest now." he smiled and wished he was there with her so he could kiss those scintillating lips. Hearing her let out another moan nearly made him cum in his pants. "Damn girl." he whispered and said goodbye. He hung up the phone and returned to his seat. He informed Ben he wouldn't be going to the party after the game and was counting down the seconds before he could be inside Lauren again. It was close to end of the fourth quarter and Zach was on the edge of his seat for two reasons. One, it was less than one minute before he could speed to Lauren's place and bury his already hard dick in her soft, wet pussy and two, Keith's team was down by only one point and he had the ball. Keith dribbled the ball down the court and faked a pass to a teammate who was open. Stopping at the three point line Keith let the ball fly and it hit the rim just as the buzzer sounded and the crowd held their breath to see if the ball was going to sink into the hoop or bounce off the rim causing Keith's team to lose. As the orange ball connected with the strings of the hoop the crowd went wild. Angelia, Zach and Ben jumped out of their seats and cheered as Keith was lifted into the air on the shoulders of his teammates. He looked towards Angelia and nodded his head. Out of nowhere she pulled Zach to her and planted a hard kiss on his lips. The kiss was displayed on the screen inside the arena and across the screens of millions of viewers' homes across the world; including Lauren's. Zach pulled away from Angelia and wiped the lipstick off his lips. Ben tapped Zach's shoulder and pointed to the big screen that was in plain view of everyone in the audience. Zach saw the look of shock on his own face and then he glared at Angelia. Zach pushed past Ben and headed outside to his car. He was praying Lauren hadn't been watching. Zach made it to Lauren's apartment less than 30 minutes later. He could hear the TV through the door and knocked softly. He was preparing for tongue lashing as the door opened. Lauren appeared with messy hair and bags under her eyes. "Oh, baby." Zach cried as she pulled her to him and hugged her tightly. "I'm sorry! It wasn't my fault! She kissed me! I didn't see it coming." he yelled and Lauren pushed him off her. "What the hell are you talking about? Who kissed you?" she said and Zach stared at her with confusion in his eyes. "You didn't watch the game?" "No. Wasn't it you who said to get my rest?" she told him. "I fell asleep before half time was over. Now who kissed you?" Zach swallowed hard and smiled. He grabbed the edge of her shirt and pulled it over her head. "Would you rather we talk or do what I came here for?" He kissed her and pushed her towards her bedroom. Lauren shook it off since she did just wake up and giggled as Zach kissed her neck. When they reached her bed Zach lifted her easily and spun around before sitting on the bed with her in his lap. He pushed her dark brown hair from her face so he could look at her. "Lauren," he began and she stared at him lovingly. "I love you." She smiled brightly and leaned in to kiss him but he pulled back. "I mean it baby. I love you." "Zach, I love you too." Kissing her Zach unhooked her bra to free her overflowing breasts from their confinements. He pulled each nipple to his mouth and licked small circles around them. Lauren squirmed in his lap and started to grind on his cock which was straining to be released. "Zach, hurry up and fuck me." Lauren said breathlessly and Zach lifted her slightly off his lap. He pulled off her pants and panties and threw them over the side of the bed. He removed his shirt and then his pants and boxers followed. He placed Lauren above his fully erect dick and paused. "Pill?" Lauren nodded her head and Zach plunged into her like she wanted; hard and fast. Feeling Zach's balls slap against her plump ass caused her to climax quicker than normal but she knew Zach wouldn't let up until he drained his balls inside her. She groaned loudly as she slowly rocked on Zach's cock until her orgasm subsided and she recovered. Zach was patient and was willing to wait; he was going to keep his promise and fuck her all night, so he was in no rush to force himself to cum. "God, you feel so good." Lauren let out a moan and kissed Zach passionately as they switched positions. Zach was now on top of Lauren and her feet were around his neck. She plopped a pillow under her back for support as Zach resumed thrusting deep into her pussy. Lauren's screams filled the room and she was sure they could hear her in China. The next day Lauren awoke with Zach still inside her. She stared at the clock and smiled; it was well past 2 o'clock. She felt Zach shift and thrust softly into her. "Morning beautiful." he said before engulfing her mouth with his. "You mean afternoon." Lauren corrected him and then gasped as Zach's cock came to life and stretched her tight hole. Before Zach could get into a rhythm Lauren heard her doorbell ring. "Expecting anyone?" Zach asked but making no attempt to pull his dick from inside her even though he could feel that she was badly swollen from the previous night. The doorbell rang again and Zach grunted as he climbed off of Lauren. She giggled as she crawled out of bed and pulled on her robe. She walked slowly to the front door. She looked out the peep hole and saw Keith. She sighed as she opened the door. "What do you want?" she said when she was face to face with him. "Just came to check on you. Zach told me last night you were sick." he smiled devilishly. "Get the fuck out of here!" she yelled. When she screamed this Zach pulled on his boxers and jeans and came out of Lauren's bedroom. "There a problem here?" he asked. "Oh, Zach! I tried to call you earlier! Angelia said she really felt something when she kissed you last night and wanted me to give her your number but I wanted to run it by you first." Keith said and smiled. Lauren spun to Zach. "What is this piece of shit talking about?" "He didn't tell you?" Keith said over her shoulder. "Yeah, I made the winning shot last night and I guess amongst the excitement he shared a passionate kiss with a very hot friend of mine." "Keith, you're really not helping here." Zach said. "Hey I told you to behave yourself last night or I was singing like a canary." Keith said as he pulled a DVD from his pocket. "It's obvious Lauren didn't catch the game last night, what with her being sick and all so I just brought a little footage for her. You don't mind do you sweetie?" Keith made his way to Lauren's TV and popped the disk in the DVD player and ignored both Lauren and Zach's objections. He hit the play button and soon the screen was soon showing the tremultuous kiss between Zach and Angelia. "That's kinda hot there Zach. I felt something." Keith joked and Zach lunged at Keith. His large hands were around Keith's neck as Lauren jumped behind him and did her best to pry him off of Keith but with her small frame it was like a dog trying to pull two bears apart. "Zach! Stop! He's not worth it!" Lauren screamed. When Zach saw that Keith was turning blue he released him and Keith was wheezing as he was breathing the air back into his lungs. Zach was also breathing heavily as he turned and walked into Lauren's room. Lauren faced Keith and pointed towards her door. "Get the hell out of my house." Keith walked to the door with what was left of his pride. Lauren went back into her room and calmed Zach down. She then told him of the conversation that had took place between her and Keith nearly a week ago and Zach was ready to go find Keith and finish what he had started. Lauren again reassured him that Keith wasn't worth the dirt on his boots and told him to forget about it. They spent the rest of the day and night in bed and Zach spent the night with Lauren again. The next morning Lauren awoke and could smell breakfast cooking. She smiled as she got out of bed and walked to the kitchen in her robe. She walked behind Zach who was standing in front of the stove. She wrapped her arms around his waist and kissed his bare back. "It smells really good in here." "Hope you're hungry." he said rubbing her arms. "I'm starving." "Good. Go on and take a seat and I'll bring you a plate." Zach pushed her off him and towards the dining area. She sat at the table and a few minutes later Zach placed a plate of pancakes. hash brown, scrambled eggs and grits in front of her. He bent over her and placed a kiss on her lips before walking away. He returned with his own plate and a bottle of orange juice. He sat next to Lauren and poured the juice into two glasses. "This looks delicious. Thank you baby." Lauren says appreciatively. "You're more than welcomed." They eat and when they are done Zach washes up the dishes. Lauren walked to him and kissed his arm and then slide in front of him and kissed his chest. "You are so good to me." "Well it's easy when you have someone so loveable in your life." He kissed her and lifted her onto the counter next to them. He easily fit between her legs and wrapped them around his waist. Just as he was about to free his cock the doorbell rang. "This better not be Keith." he growled and broke free of Lauren's grasp. He walked to the door and swung it open. He was surprised to see two police officers standing there. "Can I help you?" he asked and then spotted Keith over the shoulder of one of the officers. "Zachary Lomax?" One of the officers asked. When Zach nodded his head the officer pulled out a pair of handcuffs. "Mr. Lomax, we are placing you under arrest for aggravated assault against Keith Platt. Can you please place your hands behind your back?" Zach complied as his rights were read and he was handcuffed. His eyes met Lauren's and he was taken outside. Lauren walked to the door and saw Keith. "You had him arrested?!" she screamed. "He attacked me. He belongs behind bars." Keith scoffed. "You are a low down dirty ass motherfucker!" Lauren yelled. "How can someone so gorgeous have such a nasty mouth? I could put it to good use though." Seeing red Lauren approached Keith and attempted to smack him but he grabbed her arm and pinned her tight between the wall and his body. "Listen to me and listen very well." he begins whispering in her ear. "Your little boyfriend could get three years for nearly killing me yesterday but with my connections I could see that it'll be five years before he sees the outside of a prison wall. But you could make all his problems disappear. Be with me and I'll drop the charges." "Fuck you!" "Have it your way but I hope you enjoy fucking Zach through a glass window." Keith growled through gritted teeth. He quickly grinded his erection in Lauren's ass and released her. She fought the urge to turn and clock him as she waited for the sound of the elevator doors opening. With tears streaming down her face she ran into her apartment and pulled on a pair of jeans and a T-shirt. She rushed to the local precinct and demanded to see Zach when she entered. She was told that Zach had arraignment the next day at 10:30 and if bail was granted he would be released until his court date. Lauren sighed and headed home. Seconds after she entered her home her cell phone rang. She didn't recognize the number and figured it was Zach. She accepted the call and placed her phone on her ear. "Zach?" she answered breathlessly. "Yeah, it's me." She heard him say. "Are you all right?" "Yeah. I got a court date in the morning. I can make bail but there will be a nasty battle in the next few weeks." "Keith told me if I break up with you and be with him he'll drop the charges." Lauren informed him and she heard the silent curses. "He's really something else. Did you know that I was the one who talked his coach into even seeing him play at one of his college games? And this is the thanks that I get." Zach huffs. "Can you make it to the courthouse in the morning?" he asks after a short pause. "Of course I will." she says and fights back her tears. "Good because seeing you there will be the only thing that will prevent me from going ballistic on Keith's ass." Lauren laughs and smiles at his hearty laugh. "Time's almost up babe. See you tomorrow. I love you girl." "I love you." she repeats and kisses the phone before hanging up. Love in the Leagues Ch. 02 Lauren tossed and turned that night as she seriously contemplated Keith's proposition. She couldn't imagine Zach in prison even for a day. She knew how Keith would portray Zach. He would say because of Zach's physical and grueling training and his size as a football player he could've easily seriously injured Keith. She nearly broke into tears at the thought of visiting Zach behind bars, not being able to kiss his perfect lips or feel his throbbing member bring her to almost unbearable heights of pleasure. She had to admit that she was becoming sprung off of Zach Lomax. She prayed that everything would work out the next morning. She finally fell asleep still whispering her prayers. Zach was in a worse state than Lauren. He had to sleep on a cold steel cot that was offensive to be called a bed. He had no sheets and the AC had the cell freezing. But at just the thought of woman who had turned his world upside down had him hotter than Hades. Lauren was truly something special to him. He was always amazed at how her honey hued skin was flawless and even though she was drop dead gorgeous she remained humble. Zach pictured Lauren's soft brown tinted face and imagined she was in the cell with him giving his twitching cock the attention it deserved. Opening his drowsy eyes he saw her and knew he was dreaming but didn't care as that smile that had been embedded in his brain crossed her face and she unbuttoned his jeans and pulled them down along with his boxers. His thick ten incher sprang to life and Lauren wrapped her delicate hand around the shaft and began a swift jerking motion. Zach threw his head back and marveled in the moment. "Zach, I love you." he heard her whisper and place a kiss on the head of his dick. "Lauren." he moaned and felt himself explode heavily. When he woke up the next morning he saw his jeans were soaked and dried up cum was inside his boxers. He hated scrubbing himself clean in the communal shower but had no choice. His father had brought him a suit to wear to his court date and expressed his disappointment in his son but Zach shook off his comments since the older version of himself had been to jail more times than he could count on both his hands and toes. Zach was taken to City Hall in a government vehicle and had to be escorted inside with two deputies and was led inside in handcuffs like he was a hardened criminal. He took his place at the defendants table and looked around at the faces of the spectators. A smile crept across his face when he saw her but it quickly faded when he saw how sad she looked. Her head was down and focused on her hands in her lap. Keith walked through the door and a look of pure anger and shock appeared on his face when he saw Keith sit next to Lauren. He grabbed her face and placed a kiss on her lips, the lips that belonged to him. She didn't, he thought as Keith looked up and met his stare. He had on a Cheshire grin and wrapped his arm around Lauren. The judge came to his seat and everyone stood. "Be seated." the judge said and everyone sat in their seats. "Your honor before we begin, the victim, Mr. Keith Platt, has decided to drop the charges against Zachary Lomax." the district attorney stated and Zach held his head down. Lauren had thrown their relationship down the drain. How could she? Before he could look back at her Keith had drug Lauren out of the court room. "Get your hands off me!" Lauren said through clenched teeth as she yanked her arm out of Keith's grasp. "I only agreed to this for Zach." Keith huffed and pulled Lauren to him as they walked to his car. "Trust me baby, in a week you won't be thinking about Zach." He opened the door of his Cadillac Escalade and lifted Lauren into the passenger seat. He slammed the door and walked around to the driver's side. He got inside and drove to Lauren's apartment. When he pulled up to her building he parked his car and stared at her. "Go and pack an overnight bag OK sweetie. And make it fast, I'm throwing a party tonight and I need you to help me set up." Lauren was silent as she got out of the SUV and headed inside the building and gets on the elevator to her floor. She goes inside her apartment and packs. Zach literally bolted towards Lauren's apartment from the precinct downtown. He was not about to lose her especially to a spineless coward like Keith. When he approached the building he saw Keith sitting his brand new Escalade bobbing his head to the new Lil Wayne CD. It took all of Zach's strength not to drag Keith out of his ride and beat the shit out of him. The thought of Lauren calmed him down and he easily slid into Lauren's building unnoticed and took the stairs up to her floor. He approached her door and was thankful she left it unlocked. He knocked softly as he entered. Lauren walked into the living room with two bags. "Keith, I'm coming." she said and looked up and saw Zach. "Baby, what the hell is going on?" he said after they spent the last five minutes just staring at each other. "Zach, I'm sorry but I couldn't see you go to prison. I didn't want that for you." she cried. "Baby, I made the mistake in attacking Keith but you can't throw away us. Please don't do this." He approached her and got on his knees and pulled her stomach against his head. "If going to prison means keeping you away from this asshole then so be it." Lauren pulled Zach up from the floor and stared into his gorgeous bluish green eyes. "No, let's just let this mess run its course. I love you, remember that OK." she said and pulled him to her for a soft kiss. She pulled away to leave but Zach wrapped his arms around her slender waist and pulled her to him and tightly enclosed her in his arms. "I can't let you go. I won't." he whispered in her ear. Lauren was now fully crying as she clung to the man of her dreams. Keith was a undeniable prick for putting her through this. All because he wanted something he couldn't have. He didn't love her the way Zach did; hell all he wanted was his trophy wife, a beautiful woman on his arm that he could show off and flaunt for his own sick pleasure. She knew that Keith was only interested his own happiness and was willing to have her sacrifice her own to please him. "Don't worry. Everything will work out." she said through sobs and rested her forehead on Zach's lips. "I have to go. Please don't make a scene." She pulled away from Zach and carried her bags to the door. She stopped and stared at Zach. He reluctantly walked to the door and stopped in front of Lauren. He stole one last glance in her amber eyes and gave her a deep kiss on her lips. "I love you too." he said softly and walked out the door. When he was out of sight Lauren pulled walked out and pulled the door close behind her. She walked outside and got into Keith's car. "What took you so fucking long?" he sneered and Lauren shot him a look that could kill. "You wanted me to pack so I packed." she said under a tight breath and looked ahead. Keith started the car and headed to his newly acquired condo. Once they stepped inside Keith grabbed Lauren's bags and took them to his bedroom. "So, what time is the party?" she asked pretending to care. "Nine." Lauren looked at her watch. It was barely noon. "It's gonna take us nine hours to decorate?" "It may take you that long." he said from his room. "I've got practice in about two hours so I'll be leaving soon." He emerged from his room a few minutes later and pulled out his wallet. He handed her his credit card. "Buy whatever you need to snazz this place up. I'll be home around six so it should look amazing by then." He kissed her cheek and she turned it in disgust. "I'm gonna hop in the shower. Care to join me?" he smiled incredulously and Lauren sucked her teeth as she fixed her heart shaped face in a scowl. Keith laughed as he walked into the back and started a shower. Lauren sat on Keith's couch and watched CNN while she waited for Keith to leave. He came out of the back wearing his team jersey and carrying a large sports bag. He tossed her keys to his Mercedes and grabbed the keys to his Escalade. "Listen, Lauren I don't want things to be sour between us. I really do care about you. I kept my end of the deal so please keep yours. Be ready when I get home all right." he smiled when he walked out the door. Lauren felt her body tense as she took in his words. He was expecting sex from her but Zach's name was tattooed on her kitty and Keith was getting nowhere near it or his eyes would be scratched out. How was she going to get herself out of this mess? Zach breathed a sigh of relief as he left the dean's office. Keith had called his coach the day of his arrest and Zach was dangerously close to being kicked off the team which would've caused him to lose his scholarship but the dean had gotten word of the charges being dropped against him and warned Zach to stay out of trouble, especially since Mecca University was in the state finals and needed Zach in order to secure a win for the school for the third year in a row. Zach assured the dean he would be a model citizen from that day on and left the office and headed to a class he was already late for. He couldn't concentrate on the test that was in front of him. Every word was 'Lauren'. The numbers were her measurements: 36-26-40. The diagrams and pictures all formed her face and Zach felt he was going crazy. He gave up on the exam and turned it in to his professor even though it wasn't nearly half way done and majority of the answers he gave were all half-assed. He didn't sweat it too much though, he was acing the calculus class and a low C or even an F wouldn't hurt his average too much. Zach had to get Lauren off his mind so he decided to grab a bite to eat before he practice at 2:45. As he ate the quesadillas Zach couldn't help but think what his life would be like without Lauren; it wasn't a happy thought and he refused to see it become a reality. He consumed his food quickly and headed to the locker room to change. A few of Zach's teammates had heard about his arrest since Keith ran his mouth like a female. Many of them were happy he didn't get kicked off the team since without him they didn't stand a chance against this Saturday's game against Breckview College. "Ready for the big game?" Jason Peters said as Zach opened his locker which was next to his. "As ready as I'll ever be." Zach mumbled and threw his clothes inside the locker and slammed it with a forceful flick of his wrist. "What's gotten into you?" Jason asked as Zach walked off and joined half of his teammates on the field. Their coach entered the field as the usually late players ran ahead of him. "All right ladies, we've got three days to get your asses ready for a brutal battle. Breckview is itching to take our title from us! Are you gonna let that happen?!" Coach Gregor yelled. "NO!!!" Zach heard his teammates scream at the top of their lungs. "Then get your lazy asses in gear!" Coach yelled and the team prepared for a grueling practice. Zach's head wasn't in the game as he tried his best to focus on using his talent to the fullest. Coach was down his back for missing a few passes, fumbling the ball more than once and failing to get rid of the ball in time before being tackled. "Lomax! What the fuck is your problem?! Have you forgotten how to play the goddamned game?!" Coach Gregor yelled and Zach saw that his veins in his neck were popping out to the max as he was chewed out. "We're gonna get murdered if you play like that on Saturday." Coach ran to Zach and grabbed his helmet and drug Zach to the bench and nearly threw him on it. "You sit there and when you're ready to play some football let me know!" Zach sat on the bench and pulled off his helmet. He ran his hand through his short hair and then over his semi-rough face which looked more paler than usual. "You feeling OK?" Hank Jacobs asked as he ran over to Zach and grabbed a Gatorade from the table next to him. He downed the liquid and waited for Zach to respond. "Yeah, I'm good." Zach lied. At six o'clock practice was over and Zach sulked the rest of the day when he entered his apartment driving himself crazy over what was going on between Keith and Lauren. He had only hoped what was going through his mind wasn't happening between the two. Lauren had just finished decorating Keith's condo when the door swung open. Keith entered and he smiled. "The place looks great!" he exclaimed. He then frowned when he saw Lauren. She looked like a farm hand in a loose fitting oversized T-shirt, baggy jeans and a head scarf was wrapped around her beautiful hair. She wore no make-up and looked as if she was already letting herself go. "You don't." he grinned. "You expected me to decorate this entire house in a mini skirt and heels?" she said with mad attitude. "Well I was hoping you'd meet me at the door in that ensemble." he smirked and placed his bag in the closet next to the front door. He walked to Lauren and stopped in front of her. "I'm really glad you decided to take me up on my offer." he began and removed the scarf from her head. Her silky hair fell to her shoulders and Keith reached out to touch a few strands and she jerked her head back. "Lauren, why don't you want me? Hundreds of women would kill to be in your position. I mean you should be honored that I'm choosing you." Keith said and Lauren broke in a laugh. "I'm so thrilled." she said with as much sarcasms that she possessed. "You don't have to be this way. I just want to make you happy baby. All I need is for you to forget about that loser Zach and get with the program here." Keith said and Lauren kicked herself for agreeing to be with this man...no boy. 'Keith, you know I only agreed to this to keep Zach out of jail for kicking your ass and you have to admit it was something that has been long overdue. I don't like you and I don't want you looking at me let alone touching me!' she screamed in her mind as she stared at Keith and wanted to vomit. "We've got three hours to kill until my guests arrive and I can think of something we do to occupy ourselves." Keith smirked and grabbed Lauren's hips and pulled her close to him. "You are incredibly sexy, you know that right?" he moaned and kissed her cheek. "I've been wanting you since the first day Ginger introduced us." His lips traveled to her neck and then he quickly squeezed her breasts through her shirt. She squirmed away and forcefully pushed Keith off her. "You are a fighter." he smirked and then gave her a serious look. Baby, I've never raped a woman in my life but I want this pussy and I'm getting it right now." he said with such intensity in his hazel eyes it caused Lauren to tensed up and she started to back away from him. He inched closer to her and he was a man overcome with lust. She saw an extreme erection forming in his basketball shorts and she was hoping Keith would come to his senses and back the hell off. "Keith, I don't want to." she said as her back hit the wall. She held up her hands to shield herself from Keith's intrusion. He grabbed her arms and pinned them above head. "If you don't want me then why the hell are you here? You could've just let Zach go to prison, wait for him for five years and live happily ever after. I think deep down inside you want me just as much as I want you." He grabbed her face forcefully with his free hand and kissed her hard. Lauren felt Keith's manhood poking her in the stomach through her shirt. When Keith released Lauren's lip he spun her around and buried his body against her and held her hands against the wall. Tears streamed down her face as he literally tried to fuck her through her jeans. Keith roared as he stroke her right ass cheek hard and brought his lips to her ear. "Damn, girl. I haven't even fucked you yet and I've already come twice. I was right, your shit is good." He took her earlobe in his mouth and sucked on the hanging flesh. Lauren started to cry more freely as Keith pushed her into his bedroom. He slammed the door with his foot while still holding tight against his defined frame. He moved with her to his bed and threw her on it. She scrambled to get off the bed and Keith blocked her every exit route. "Stop fighting me." he said as he removed his jersey and shorts. When he was completely naked he grabbed Lauren and laid her on her back. "Keith, don't do this. Please." she begged and Keith climbed on top of her. Ripping off her shirt and bra Keith grabbed one of her succulent breasts and squeezed it into his mouth. Lauren screamed as she wiggled beneath. "You would enjoy this more if you just relax. I don't want to hurt you." Keith told her after her tit was released from his lips. "Lauren, I want to be with you. I want you so fucking bad." With that being said Keith pulled off Lauren's jeans and panties from her swirming legs and planted himself between them. He guided his engorged member inside Lauren's vagina. She clenched her body and squeezed her eyes shut as he pumped furiously into her. His upper body had her pinned to the bed and Lauren shrieked as Keith fucked her roughly. She tried to push him off her but it was to no avail. "I bet Zach has never fucked you like this." Keith stated as he drove into her violently. When he repeatedly moaned signaling his orgasm he pulled away from Lauren and rolled off her body. Keith took a few deep breaths and got out of his bed. Lauren immediately grabbed the sheets and covered herself. She pressed herself against the headboard and cried uncontrollably. "Stop your crying. You loved it." he said and bent down to pick up his shorts. He slid them over his slender but muscular legs and walked towards the door. He stopped and said over his shoulder to Lauren, "Be ready when my guests get here." He slammed the door when he left. Zach felt a tight pain in his stomach as he laid on his couch and it wasn't from the nine bean burritos he had eaten earlier as comfort food. He curled into a ball as the pain rolled through his chest. Doing steady breathing the pain subsided and he walked into his bathroom. He turned on the faucet and cupped a handful of water. Splashing it on his face he felt the tightness of his facial muscles relax. He fought the urge to call Lauren; she could always make him feel like Superman even when he felt like crap. He decided to call it a night even though it was barely 8:30. He had been agonizing over the Lauren and Keith subject for far too long. He hoped he could make it through the night without Lauren by his side. Meanwhile Keith was dressing for his get together and Lauren hadn't moved from her spot. "Lauren, baby I need you to get dressed. My friends will be here in less than half an hour and I want to be able to show you off. Can you get out of bed please." Keith talked to her as if he hadn't just violated her in a multitude of ways. Lauren clutched the sheets tighter and balled her fists tightly. "You are a fucking bastard." she chided and shook horribly. "There was no gun to your head to come here! You made your choice now stop acting like a fucking child and get your ass cleaned up!" he yelled and Lauren got out of bed. She took a extremely hot shower; she wanted to wash any trace of Keith off her body. The water burned her slightly and left her beautifully brown skin red and blotted. After her shower she wrapped a towel around her frame and sat on the toilet until her skin returned to its natural state. A few minutes later Lauren heard a knock on the door. "You've got less than 15 minutes." Lauren dried her body and placed on a red and pink Chinese dress that fit her like a glove. She slipped on a black pair of heel-less sandals and curled her hair. She walked out of the bathroom and Keith looked her over and expressed his approval of her look. The doorbell rang and the first ten guests arrived. Eight of them were men and after they greeted Keith they turned their attention to Lauren. "Who is this?" one of the men asked. He harbored the same look Keith had in his eyes when he had returned home. Love in the Leagues Ch. 02 Keith beamed brightly as he squeezed Lauren against his hip. He kissed Lauren's cheek and led the men into the den. The two women Lauren was left alone with eyeballed her and rolled their eyes when she shot their looks right back. Both women were Hispanic and looked trashy with way too much make-up on. Keith came back into the living room and told the girls to set up the food. "So how do you know Keith?" one of the girls ask. Lauren didn't answer and the women pegged her as 'stuck up' and did as Keith asked and walked into the kitchen. Lauren was about to follow when the door bell rang. She walked to the door and was shocked as all hell to see Ginger at the door looking incredibly sexy in a light pink blouse and matching skirt. "Ginger? What are you doing here?" Lauren was able to emit. "My girl Hannah told me about a party that Keith was having tonight so I figured I'd drop by and convince him that ending our relationship is a bad idea." she smiled brightly. "What are you doing here?" she asked as she walked inside. "I came to see you." she lied and gave her a hug. "And I think you and Keith getting back together is a great idea. He's in the back so why don't you go talk to him?" Lauren said turning around and started to pull Ginger to the back but Keith emerged and stared at the two women. "Ginger, what the hell are you doing here? I thought I made it clear to you that it was over." he said and walked towards the kitchen but not before shooting Lauren a look. Ginger, being persistent, followed Keith. "Baby, I've been nothing but good to you. Two years of my life you've taken and then out of nowhere you want to end things? I just don't understand." "Why don't you go home and I'll call you later." Keith said and gave one of the girls setting up the food a soft kiss on her cheek. "Is she the reason you don't want to be with me anymore?" Ginger nearly cried as she eyes the woman standing next to Keith. "Uh-uh girl. She the one Keith was all hugged up with when we came." the girl spat and pointed to Lauren. Ginger spun to Lauren and shook her head. "What is she talking about?" "I'm with Lauren now. She fucked me royally about two hours ago and I enjoyed every second of it." Keith barked growing tired of trying to break it her gently; fuck that. He wanted her out of his house and the sooner the better. Lauren saw the tears well in Gingers soft blue eyes and wanted to pick up the nearest kitchen knife and gut Keith like a fish. "I thought you were my friend." Ginger cried. "Ginger, it's not what you think. Please let me explain." Lauren saw Ginger clenching her fists and inching towards her. "Explain what? That you pretended to be my friend so you could steal my man? And what about Zach? I'm sure he has no idea what kind of whore you are!" she spat and was now in Lauren's face. "I can't believe I trusted you!" Ginger threw up her hand and swung at Lauren which she dodged easily. Keith, sensing a full on catfight was going down, ran to get the fellas. They ran into the living room and cheered on the women who now clung to each other deflecting the other's blows. "Ginger stop! I don't want to fight you!" Lauren screamed when she finally pushed Ginger off her. "So just stand there and let me fuck you up for fucking my man." Ginger snapped and lunged at Lauren. She was able to grab Lauren and shook her aggressively. Lauren knew at that moment had to do something to free herself. When she was a child and teenager she was a gymnast so she used that to her advantage. Spreading her legs she fell into a split and brought Ginger to a bending position. Lauren used all her might to twist her body and flip Ginger over her onto her back. The men cheered and Keith ram to Lauren and picked her up. He threw her over his shoulder and laid a smack on her ass. "That's my fucking girl!" he yelled and he dropped Lauren into the crowd of men. Two of the men helped Ginger up and carried her to her car. When more guests arrived at the house the fight was all they talked about. Lauren sulked in Keith's bedroom bawling over what she had done to Ginger. "Stop your crying woman." Keith said when he finally came to check on her nearly two hours later. He was practically drunk and tripping over his own feet as he made his way to the bed where Lauren was sitting. "I really hurt her and I didn't want to." Lauren sobbed. "It was either her or you. But you handled yourself very well. I can't wait to see that split again in the near future." he grinned and gave her a sloppy kiss and rejoined the party. Lauren sighed in disgust and grabbed her bags. She crawled out the window and caught the next bus to her apartment. As soon as she entered her home she crawled in her bed and fell asleep. The next morning she awoke at 6 AM and immediately got ready for work. Her phone rang as she ate a sensible breakfast and she knew it was Keith. She ignored the call and left her apartment. When Lauren entered her office Greg Thoms pulled her into his office. "Lauren, I called Keith Sunday to congratulate him on his team's win and he told me Zach attacked him and he was arrested. What the hell is going on?" "Well, that's true but Keith dropped the charges." "Why did Zach attack him?" Greg asked. "It's a long story and I really don't want to relive it." She threw him a look to signal he should just drop the subject and she walked to her office. Her assistant, Sheila had mountains of paperwork waiting for her since she had took the previous day off to attend Zach's trial. Lauren was nowhere near halfway through when her lunch break approached. "Where are you headed for lunch?" Sheila asked as she picked up the work that Lauren had been able to complete. "Zach hasn't called so I don't know if you're going with him or not." "No, we broke up." Lauren informed her and Sheila stared at and nearly dropped the files in her hand. She sat in the chair in front of Lauren's desk. "I want every detail and don't leave anything out. What the hell happened?" "I don't want to talk about it. I'll be leaving for lunch in ten minutes." Lauren said and turned to her computer. "All right." Sheila let it go and walked out of the office. As soon as the ten minutes were up Lauren looked up and saw Zach hovering above her. "What are you doing here?" she asked as she stood and grabbed her purse. "Can I take you to lunch?" he asked biting his bottom lip; the lip Lauren was fighting not to just suck off his face. "I don't think that's such a good idea. If Keith sees us together he could reopen the case against you." she says and walks toward the door. Zach grabs her arm and she stares at him. "I don't care. I've been going crazy. I know it's been barely 36 hours but I can't stand to be away from you for 36 minutes." He sighed at the look on her face. "Lunch. Just let me take you to lunch." He pulled her close to him and whispered in her ear. "I've got an itch only you can scratch." Lauren chuckles and nods her head agreeing to lunch. Minutes after Lauren and Zach leave Keith approaches Sheila's desk carrying a vase of assorted flowers. "Beautiful flowers." she smiles. "I'm here to see Lauren Stephens." Keith tells her. "Oh, sorry she stepped out for lunch." Sheila informs him. "Hey, aren't you Keith Platt?" she asks and stands from her desk. "That would be me." "Gee, I caught your game Saturday. My husband absolutely loves you. Could I get your autograph for him?" She grabs a sheet of paper and a pen and hands it to him. "Did Lauren go to lunch alone?" Keith pondered as he scribbled his name on the paper. "Oh, no. She went with her boyfriend, well ex-boyfriend. I really hope they work things out. They make such a cute couple." Sheila rants and takes back her pen. "Thank you so much. My husband is going to die when I tell him you came in today." Keith smiles kindly and spins on his heels and leaves the office. Lauren sipped her iced tea as she and Zach waited for the order inside the small café. "I cannot wait to have you back in my arms love." Zach said caressing her hand across the table. "So what's your plans to get away from Keith?" Zach sipped his own tea and stared at Lauren. She shrugged her shoulders and accepted the plate of food when their waiter arrived. Her eyes widened when she saw Keith approaching their table. "Well isn't this a pleasant surprise!" Keith exclaimed as he pulled a chair up to the table. "Are you two talking about getting back together because I figured Lauren wouldn't even remember your name after the intensely satisfying fuck session we had yesterday. I can still her pussy wrapped around my dick." Keith sneered the last part in Zach's ear and Lauren saw his jaw clenching. He bore a hole in her head and leaned forward. "Lauren, I'm gonna take a rain check on lunch." He pulled out his wallet to pay for their food but Keith gripped his hand. "I'll take care of the bill. You better head to practice. A little birdie tells me Breckview is taking the state championship this year, especially if you play Saturday the way you played at practice." Keith shook his head, released Zach hands and gave Lauren a kiss on her lips. When Zach was out of sight Keith grabbed his plate of food and picked at the French fries. "Funny thing happened to me. I woke up this morning and you weren't next to me." Keith spoke and dipped a fry in ketchup before bringing it to his lips. "I couldn't be around you after what happened last night. In fact I can't even stand to be near you right now." she said and grabbed her purse and attempted to get up from her seat but Keith grabbed her arm and pulled her back down. "Lauren I am growing tired of repeating myself. Now you get with the program or I can't guarantee that either you or Zach will have a happy near future." Lauren had never seen Keith so furious. She swallowed hard and excused herself to the bathroom. When she entered the private stall she sat on the surprisingly clean toilet seat and let out a blood curdling scream. She was glad the bathroom was empty otherwise security would've been kicking the door wondering what the hell was wrong with her. She made up her mind that this had to end, one way or another. Zach punched the wall of his apartment and nearly knocked over his bookcase when he entered his apartment that day after he was done with practice. Not only had he played shitty but coach benched him from the game on Saturday since it was obvious he had other things on his mind than winning the state championship. He had also failed his Calculus exam and his professor informed him the failure had brought his A average to a high C and that he needed an A on the final to get back his average and secure his position as class valedictorian. He was also furious he was letting Keith make him seem like a punk bitch; if Keith crossed him one more time he would gladly walk himself into prison just to give Keith the ass kicking he so rightfully deserved. The doorbell ringing prevented Zach from completely trashing his place. He walked to his door and swung it open and saw Ben standing there. "What do you want?" he said in an annoyed tone and turned his back to the door and walked away. Ben walked in and closed the door. "Good to see you too." he smirked and saw the hole in the wall. "I see you and your wall are gooing through a domestic dispute." "I'm really not in the mood for your lame jokes Ben." Zach plopped on his couch and grabbed the remote. He turned on his TV and half heartedly listened to the seven o'clock news. "What's gotten into you?" Ben took the empty seat next to Zach and noticed his miserable state. "Lauren and I broke up." "Serious? Damn, I always thought you two made a decent couple. Was it because of that kiss Angelia gave you?" Ben inquired. "I don't wanna talk about it and how do you remember that girl's name? You two barely spoke." Zach said and turned to Ben. "Oh! I completely forgot." Ben sat up and began. "After the game when you rushed off Angelia and I went to Keith's after party. She got wasted and we hooked up. And she ratted Keith out. Dude, Angelia is a hardcore prostitute. She told me Keith paid her to basically screw your brains out that night after the game and he was going to tape it and show it to Lauren the next day but since you didn't come to the after party Keith had to go with a back up plan." "And you waited until now to tell me this shit!" Zach yelled and jumped up from his seat. "I tried to call you all day Sunday, Monday and yesterday." Ben reasoned. "I was in jail Monday and in court yesterday!" "Jail? For what?" "Keith came by Lauren's place Sunday morning and showed her a tape he made of my kiss with Angelia thinking she would break it off with me and I straight jacked his ass up. He had my ass arrested" "So why did you and Lauren break up?" Ben asked again. "I said I didn't want to talk about it." Zach sighed and then a smile crossed his face. "Do you have Angelia's number?" "Yeah, she gave it to me after the most amazing sex she ever had, or so she says." Ben says cockily. He pulled his phone from his pocket and retrieved Angelia's number. He read it to Zach and he dialed the number on his own phone. "Hello?" Zach heard Angelia answer groggily. "Angelia, hey girl!" he said smoothly. "Who is this?" "Zach, you kissed me at Keith Platt's game a couple nights ago." he explained. "What do you want? How did you get my number?" she asked suspiciously. "Ben." "Oh, Benny." He sensed her ear length smile. "What can I do for you?" "Listen, can we meet somewhere for lunch tomorrow? There's something I want to ask you but I want to do it in person." he asks. "Sure. I'm free around 12:30. Bring Ben with you." she says and after confirming the location she hangs up. "What are you planning?" Ben asked when Zach snapped his phone shut. "Karma is a bitch, buddy and I don't want to be around Keith when the shit hits the fan." Zach simply beamed and his sexy features in his face returned. Tomorrow it was on and Zach couldn't wait for the fireworks.
