All characters in this story are over the age of 18 and are consenting young adults.
This chapter has been a long time coming, and I apologize for my tardiness. Lots of things conspire to keep me from wrapping this up. Some of them are my fault and some aren't.
I expect one more chapter to finish this storyline and it should arrive in the next few weeks.
Hope you enjoy!
*****
Sis and I both had a terrible night. It was difficult to put yesterday's events out of our minds. We slept together naked, but neither of us was thinking of sex. We clung to one another.
Sis tried to apologize more than once for what she had done. I always shushed her and kissed her forehead assuring her that it wasn't her fault, and that I wouldn't change anything even if I could. She shed more than a few tears before finally falling asleep with her face on my chest and my arms around her.
I woke sometime in the early a.m. to pitiful moans and Sis stirring beside me still asleep. I cradled her and she woke in my arms terrified.
It took a while for Sis to become aware of her surroundings. When she did, she sobbed and kissed me furiously, "Hold me, please?"
At that moment there was nothing in the world I wanted to do other than hold her, "I've got you. I'm not going anywhere. You had a bad dream. That's all. Do you want to tell me about it?"
Sis refused to say anything about the dream, and settled back onto my chest and we were back where we started the night, with me murmuring, "I've got you," periodically to reassure her. Soon she was asleep once again.
I didn't sleep the rest of the night thinking about what Coach would say. I liked Coach and felt that I had let him down. Add him to the list with Mom and Dad although they didn't know it, and hopefully would never know.
I tried to decide what I would say to him, but nothing seemed right. I'd just take what I had coming.
At 5:59 a.m. I reached over to turn off the alarm so it wouldn't wake Sis. I was already awake.
I slipped from bed. Sis had planned on going with me, but she needed her sleep and I didn't want her to be part of what was likely to happen. After a quick shower in my bathroom to avoid waking her, I was on the road to the practice field expecting to be asked to leave the team.
1st Monday Morning Fight (4 on 1) There were several cars in the parking lot when I got there. None of them were Coach's. Five guys from the team were standing by the corner of the building. Four were seniors and the fifth was a freshman. I only knew his face.
As I approached, they stepped out of sight around the corner of the building, "Around here."
Confused I stepped around the side of the building, "Where's Coach? I thought he wanted to see me."
The younger guy smirked, "You mean since he was pissed at you?"
I realized then that Coach wasn't going to be there. By the time I knew this, I also knew that my escape was blocked as well.
Four of the guys had ringed me in, my back to the wall. The freshman was setting his phone up on a window ledge, recording I assumed. I hadn't known who this kid was, but now I was pretty sure he was Bonnie's brother, the one who posted her video. I knew his name from practice; Tommy.
"You should have minded your own business Tyler. You messed up a sweet thing we had going on. Those sluts did everything we told them too until you butted in."
One of the others jumped in, "Yeah, and now we're going to teach you a lesson and then we're going to take care of those bitches."
"You guys aren't going to do anything to the girls. What are you going to tell everyone? You blackmailed them into doing stuff for three years."
Confused, Tommy was realizing that he might be on the wrong side. "What's he talking about guys? Is... is he talking about my sister? You guys have been blackmailing MY SISTER?"
One of the guys who hadn't spoken, "Shut the fuck up Tommy," as he stepped toward Tommy and backhanded him sending him to the ground.
Momentarily distracted, the guys watched Tommy and not me. Dad always said take advantage of the opportunities they give you. I stepped to the guy furthest away from Tommy and hit him in the nose as hard as I could. That was more of Dad's advice; noses are soft targets. He grunted in pain and blood gushed as he stumbled backwards and fell. It was the only free shot I got.
When they heard their buddy yell in pain, the others returned their attention to me. My advantage was gone and the three remaining circled close and began swinging at my head. I tried to protect myself but couldn't and tried to land a few shots of my own. After several of their punches landed, one of them connected. I saw stars and my part of the fight was over.
After I'd been hit hard two or three times, I didn't feel much pain. I hardly felt anything, and was only barely aware of what was happening. I ended up on the ground and the guy I'd hit first got payback.
After landing on the ground, the only thing I remembered was their parting words, "If you know what's good for you, you'll be gone before the team gets here!"
When they had gone, Tommy came over to help me up. He looked rough too, "Are you ok? Man, those guys hate you. We need to get out of here before they get back."
I mumbled, "Not leaving." I was pissed.
I made my way to the truck and a water bottle. Tommy walked beside me. As best I could, I rinsed my mouth and then washed blood from my face. One eye was beginning to swell and my lips were battered and swollen enough to cause me to slur my words.
As I washed, Tommy was on his phone, "Sis, you need to talk to your friend. They hurt him pretty bad and now he won't leave. If he's still here when they get back, I don't know what they'll do to him."
He hung up and made a FaceTime call to Bonnie. "Here. Bonnie, talk to him."
Bonnies face went white, "Tyler," panic in her voice, "you've got to leave! I'll be there as soon as I can and we can get you out of there."
"I'm not leaving. They can't do anything with everybody around. Besides, I think your brother got video."
I turned to Tommy, "Right?"
Tommy nodded, "Yeah but I'm through posting. I've screwed things up enough already."
"Bonnie. I'm hanging up but I'll be here when you get here."
To Tommy, "You need to post this one. I want all of it on that YouTube page. Go home and edit it. Get rid of anything that might hurt Bonnie and then POST IT!"
"Ok," and Tommy left in a hurry with a mission.
I called Sis and did my best to assure her that I was ok, but that I'd been in a fight. Slurring my words with my swollen lip wasn't very convincing.
Sis yelled angrily at me, "You... you left me asleep. You asshole! I was supposed to go with you."
