Chapter One
Zach looked at the time on his watch. It was getting late as he sat on the bleachers of the football court. He was impatiently waiting for Ashley to finish her cheers. They had been high school sweethearts and now attended the same college. It was their second year at the university and while Zach remained a Psychology major, Ashley switched from Nursing to Physical Education. She applied for the college cheerleading squad and was quickly accepted; after all she did fit the bill for the position. Ashley was a petite, red-headed hottie. She never had any problems with getting her way because of her looks and she became popular in a very short time.
Zach supported her and came to all her practices and games; however, the whole routine was becoming tedious. He was beginning to realize that their relationship was suffering because she never had time for him anymore. He loved her, but his patience was wearing thin. For the past two months, he couldn’t count how many times she blew him off for practice and cheerleading meetings. He had responsibilities too and even he made time for her. Ashley was becoming too absorbed in the college football world and didn’t seem to care about them as a couple. Still, Zach was hesitant to leave her and hoped that she would come to her senses. Now he was waiting for practice to end and it seemed that he would only have to wait half an hour longer.
“Thank God it’s almost over.” he thought.
“Hey man!”
Zach turned to see Shawn, one of the football players coming towards him. The two first met at one of the games and became very good friends. He and Zach would sometimes double date with their girlfriends and also drink together. Zach had been so busy with exams and trying to get some quality time with Ashley that he’d abandoned his friend.
“Hey, how ya’ been?”
“Good…got our game in two days. You coming?”
“I don’t know…Ashley and I aren’t doin’ so good. I gotta worry about my exams, plus I start an internship soon. It’s gonna be tough.”
“Damn man…well after the game we’re gonna celebrate right? I haven’t seen you in…shit I don’t know how long! Maybe everything will be good with y’all after the game. Everybody’s all stressed out.”
“And you’re not?”
“Nah man! I got this! You know those scouts will be there. They’re gonna be looking for talent and got everybody on edge. Maybe that’s why you ain’t seen your girl much. “
“Yeah maybe.”
“Come on man, don’t do that. Everything will be good! Maybe we can go see that new spy movie or sumthin’. I wanted you to meet my new girl. Well… she’s not new anymore.”
“New? What happened to Tara?”
“Oh… shit wasn’t workin’ out.”
“Oh, well…sorry man. What’s her name?”
“Diana…matter fact, I think she’s got a few classes with you.”
“Maybe. I don’t really talk to anybody much and there’s like over 100 students in all my classes.”
“Well she’s gonna meet me here in a lil bit. You can meet her.”
Just then Ashley blew Zach a kiss from across the field and he smiled and waved at her. At least she showed him a little attention. Unfortunately, this pleasant moment was quickly ruined when the star quarterback broke her gaze and put his arms around her. She looked quite comfortable in his arms and Zach’s heart sank as he witnessed this. He pretended not to see any of it with Shawn sitting next to him, but his heart was ready to burst.
“You aight man?”
“Yea I’m good!” Zach lied.
“Look it’s my girl.” and Shawn’s head cocked towards the direction of a young woman, whom Zach had indeed seen before.
Diana was quite the opposite of Ashley. She was much heavier but still had gorgeous curves. While Ashley had a b cup, Diane’s breasts were probably in the DD area and the rounded orbs swelled against
