A
CE PUT HIS KEY
in the door, he still couldn’t believe a messed up kid like him was actually about to start college and on a full scholarship. Maybe all those times he ran to get away from his abusive father and the police were what steered him to the Track Team. Hell, he didn’t know how to do anything but run. Thank goodness for Coach Nichols.
“You going to stand there all day or are you going to open the door?”
Ace turned around and there was a big muscular guy standing there holding three bags and a box.
“Yeah, sorry.”
Ace opened the door allowing the
big guy
to go in first. Once they were inside the
big guy
placed down his belongings and turned towards Ace.
“I’m Chace McQueen.”
Ace reached out his hand to shake Chace’s.
“Ace Dean.”
“Shane, it looks like our roomies have arrived.”
Ace walked over and extended his hand.
“Ace Dean.”
“Declan King.”
“Let’s get this party started. I’m Shane Hart.”
After all the introductions were made Shane tossed each of the guys a beer.
“So since we’re going to be spending this year together, why don’t we try to get to know each other.”
“Shane, since it was your idea you go first.”
“Declan, do you always have to be a prick?”
Chace looked between Declan and Shane before he asked, "So, I guess you two already know each other?”
Shane replied, “Yeah, Dec and I met a few years ago. We were both on our school’s wrestling teams. Dec will never accept the fact that I always beat him.”
“Fuck you, Shane.”
“You wish, Dec, you wish.”
Ace looked over at Chace and smirked.
Ace decided he should start talking before Declan and Shane ended up wrestling one another on their living room floor.
“So uhh, I’m only here because I got a scholarship for Track. I haven’t a clue what I’m going to major in. I’m from California. It’s your turn, Chace.”
“I'm a Criminal Justice major. I want to be a detective. I’m from Alabama. I'm here on a football scholarship. You're up Shane."
Chace looked at Shane.
“Hell, I wasn’t going to go to college but I got a full scholarship for wrestling and I figured it was my ticket out of Tennessee so I took it. I don’t know what kind of a degree I’m going to get but as long as I keep a 2.0, I get free room and board.”
Ace looked up. “Your turn, Declan.”
“This school was my first choice. I plan to graduate at the top of my class with a business degree and a six figure income before I graduate from Grad School.”
Shane walked over to Declan and patted him on his back.
“So Dec, since you plan to be the wealthy one, how about you go out and get us some more beer and a couple of pizzas?”
“Shut up, Shane.”
Shane smiled at Declan.
“It’s ok, I know you love me, Dec.”
Declan grabbed his keys and walked out the door.
Shane, Ace and Chace laughed.
Shane knocked on Ace’s door.
“Come in.”
“Hey, we are all heading out to a club to play Poker. Want to come?”
“I never played before and I don’t have any money.”
“I don’t have any money to play either, I’m going to watch Declan and Chace play.”
“Ok, then I’ll come and hang with you.”
Chace finally decided that he had lost enough money and it was time to fold.
“I’m out.”
Declan was holding his own, so he continued to play. After playing and drinking for most of the night, Declan started to win and win big. The other guys were getting kind of pissed that the newbie was beating them.
