Christina's POV

My heart fell to my ass when I saw him. I looked away from his intense gaze and when I looked back he wasn't there. A man with a weird looking mustache was staring back at me. He was ogling at me as he swayed back and forth. I cringed focusing back on Lance.

Finally, we made our way back into the section. I couldn't help but scan over the crowd as we walked waiting to see Andy's face. I didn't know if I had made all that up in my head or he was there. Either way it left me with a weird feeling.

I saw everyone was in the section taking a much needed breather. I took the seat next to Kam. "We're about to head out of here" she told me. She giggled as Ralphy whispered something in her ear.

I nodded looking for lance. I saw him sipping on a drink as he bobbed his head to the music. "Yea, same. I'm not as young as I use to be."

"Ain't that the truth. I got a bed time now too."

"It's about to be bed time alright." Ralphy spoke, he tried whispering but failed.

"Y'all nasty as fuck, bye" I told them getting up and walking over to Lance. "Hey, you ready to get out of here?"

"Yea, let me call us a ride."

It didn't take long for us to get a ride. Brit went home with the lovebirds. Bless her soul cause I would of had to take my chances alone.

"I had a real nice time." He pecked my lips.

"Do you want to come inside?" I asked

"Are you sure? What about-"

"Yea I'm sure." He followed me out the car.

"Tonight, we have the whole house to ourselves."

"Mhmm, I like where this is going." He said wrapping me into his arms as we entered the foyer.

Andrew's POV

Two weeks later

It was the day before our first season game and I was hype. Practice had just ended so I headed to Christina's house to pick up Ant.

I had moved out almost three weeks ago. I knew we both needed space. Our arrangement of me staying over there was only temporary. As much as I wanted to live in the idea of us being a real family, it was a hoax. One that would wake me up like ice cold water being poured over me in the dead of sleep.

I arrived knocking on the door. Christina answered, she smiled letting me walk in. "How have you been?" I asked

"I've been good. How are you?"

"I'm fine. I actually have these for you." I said pulling an envelope out of my pocket and handing it to her.

"Thank you." She said as she pulled them out.

"Where's Bria and Ant?" I asked looking around the house. It was a little too quiet for there to be two kids running around here.

"I'm sorry I should of texted you. There both down for a nap." I nodded as I watched her look at the tickets. "The games tomorrow?" She asked somewhat surprised.

My face scrunched up as feelings of skepticism pass through me but I tried to hide it as I replied, "yea, why what's up?"

"I actually can't make it but Bria can go." She said handing me back the tickets.
