Lunch with the Girls

"Don't know why you didn't ask me, you haven't invited me to a game in years," Tayla questioned Milly.

Sitting with the girls at lunch the following day, they were all interested in why Milly had chosen myself to go with her to the game.

Taking a bite of her apple, Milly shook her head at the brunette, "Because you were embarrassing me in front of our fans last time you cane, trying to tell Tom Brady how much you love him... even though you're a fake Pats fan!"

"Fake pats fan?? I am not!" she hit back, "I watch all the time."

Katie chipped in, "Oh yeah? Who's your new quarterback then?"

There was a silence at the table as Tayla tried to figure out when and where Tom Brady had gone.

"It's not Brady anymore??" she asked dumbfounded.

Everyone at the table laughed.

"You may be the smartest girl on this table but you sure don't know much about football," Milly told her, feeling like she had just won the argument.

After some minor conversations about the weekend, I began to panic when I saw Michael heading to the side of the table. There was an empty spot to my left and I knew what he was going to ask.

I hadn't told him anything after Rose told me to leave him behind. It wasn't an easy thing to do especially when the girls would still all go out on a Saturday night without me at times. But I was playing the long game here and that meant I had to be careful with my interactions with Michael.

"Mind if i take this seat?" he said straight up.

The girls looked at each other as if he had just told them that he had a gun on him. I didn't have a chance to turn him away as Rose answered first, "What? Think I might suck you off under the table if you sit here with us?... Beat it creep."

She had a right to be annoyed with Michael after overhearing the way he was speaking about her. But he was still my friend so I felt like I was in a really tough position here.

Michael looked at me, waiting to hear it from myself. I could barely look him in the eye, "Sorry Michael, table's full..."

It wasn't, there was definitely another room for one more. But he got the message, I'm sure he was giving me a dirty look as he left but I didn't look up at him, too embarrassed.

"Good boy," Rose commented.

I didn't feel good about it, like I was the girls' little lap dog or something.

"You'll be so much better off without him, trust me," Annie added, jumping on the bandwagon.

"Yeah definitely," Katie said, "Try having gym class with him, dumbass got hit in the head last week by a volley ball because he was too busy trying to perv on me... pathetic."

I sat quietly.

It wasn't long ago that I could have easily been that person who would be hit by a ball because I was trying to get a better look at Katie's boobs, the same boobs I had now seen in the flesh...

I would still take a volley ball to the head to get one more look at them.

"Just look at how much better you're doing without him," Rose then said, noticing I wasn't smiling, "Sitting with us five at lunch, going to Dinosaur games with Milly..."

"It's the Dolphins... the Miami Dolphins," the busty blonde corrected her, dumbfounded by what she had just called them.

"Yeah, yeah, whatever, the point is, you stick with us, we can really help you out."

"What about a girlfriend, we should be helping Leo find a girlfriend," Annie then suggested.

I appreciated the thought. But I would be lying if I said I didn't have growing feelings for the five girls right here, particularly Annie.

If I was to have a girlfriend, I wanted it to be one of the five that were sitting at the table. But the others loved the idea that Annie had brought up. Suddenly they all began to suggest ideas to help me, Tayla wanted me to get a specific new haircut while Annie wanted to take me out shopping to change my wardrobe, Milly wanted to take me to the gym and Rose wanted to help me learn the art of flirting.

The girls talked for the next ten minutes of ways they could help me.

"Let's start tomorrow night, I'll take you to get a haircut," Tayla said, "And Annie can take you clothes shopping after."

"Hang on," I said, "I thought I was meant to be helping Annie study tomorrow..."

"This is more important," the skinny blonde replied with a grin as the girls all began to get up.
