Odell's POV

I locked the front door and started to clean up the living room a little bit throwing away the cans of Pepsi and different wrappers. I turned off the tv and headed upstairs. I checked on Messiah and he was sound asleep in his bed with the bedroom light still on so I turned it off and the nightlight popped on.

I walked into the room to see Summer sprawled out across the bed in just her panties and a sports bra. The tv was asking her if she was still watching Orange Is The New Black. I kicked off my shoes and changed out of my clothes. I went inside the bathroom to brush my teeth and went back into the room. I turned off the light and turned off the tv.

"Sum scoot over" I tell her tickling her side because that's the only way I can ever get her to wake up. She whines turning her head in the opposite direction. "Baby move over" I say again but she just ignores me. So I just smack her ass, that always works.

"Leave me alone!" She shouts "Move ya ass over!" I yell back laughing. She smacks her lips and mumbles something under her breaths, moving over to her side of the bed. I just laugh and lay down. She hates to be bothered while she's sleeping.

I woke up the next morning and Summer was still knocked out next to me in the bed. I was just gonna chill in the house with Summer and Messiah today since tomorrow morning I got a flight to Chicago. Summer insisted on going but since Siah has two games Friday and Saturday she's going to stay back. It's kind of rough being away from my family almost every week but this is what keeps them fed.

I climbed out of bed and just started packing my bag so later on I didn't have to do anything. Once I was done I tossed it to the side and went in the bathroom to brush my teeth. Summer walks into the bathroom and grabs her toothbrush and brushes her teeth at her sink still half asleep. I gargle some mouth wash and then wash my face. I kiss her cheek and go into the bedroom.

I sat down on the bed and scrolled through the TV guide. Summer came into room and laid back down in the bed resting her head on my chest.

"How long are you gone?" She questions. "Until Sunday night I think" I respond turning to ESPN.

I ran off the field breathing heavily, damn a nigga was exhausted. I grabbed my Gatorade bottle and gulped it down. It took me a couple more seconds to catch my breath then I was all good.

"Dell you hitting the club with us tonight?" Victor asks me and I nod my head yes "Most definitely" I respond taking another sip of my Gatorade. I went to the locker room and took off my uniform then headed to the hotel. A shower was much needed, I felt hot and sticky.

I laid up in the hotel bed until I got a text from Victor letting me know they was leaving in 10 minutes. I stood up and pulled my white t shirt on and sprayed on a little cologne. I put on a pair of Jordans and put on a black Hermès belt. I heard a knock at the door so I grabbed my phone and wallet stuffing it into my front pocket before heading out the room.

We made it to the hotel and it was jam packed. Too Much Sauce was playing and I immediately got turnt to the music as we walked through the club headed to the VIP section. We made it over to the section and it was already some groupies in the section. I said what's up to all my boys and poured me a drink. I was enjoying myself, I was hitting dem folks to damn near every songs.
