00:11Sous-titrage Société Radio-Canada
01:00I found him on the homecoming sideline.
01:02My sister Daisy was hanging off his arm.
01:06She rose on her toes and handed Chase an ice-cold water.
01:09Chase didn't drink it.
01:11He pressed the cold bottle to her cheek.
01:13Cooler now?
01:14He spoiled her in front of everyone.
01:17To everyone watching, they were the school's official couple.
01:23The second I pushed into the crowd, every eye locked on me.
01:27People elbowed their friends and pointed at me.
01:30That's him!
01:30The guy in that photo!
01:33They laughed and raised their phones at me.
01:35Chase raised his arm and his collar slipped open.
01:38Near his collarbone, a deep hickey showed.
01:41I'd left that hickey last night.
01:43He'd pinned me behind the dorm suite door, kissing me breathless.
01:47I bit down on his neck.
01:50A cheer teammate spotted the hickey first and laughed out loud.
01:55Daisy, you went hard last night, huh?
01:57The circle around them broke into laughter.
02:00Daisy was the most adored cheer captain in school.
02:03She froze for a second.
02:05Then she smiled and tugged Chase's collar back up.
02:09Chase saw me, standing a few steps away.
02:12He casually pulled Daisy into his arms.
02:16Only then did Daisy pretend to notice me.
02:18In front of everyone, she took Chase's arm and smiled sweetly.
02:22Stop spreading it, please.
02:23The guy in the photo is my brother.
02:26He likes guys.
02:28There's nothing to hide.
02:29I've always supported him.
02:30Just don't use a photo like this to hurt him, okay?
02:35Before I could speak, she confirmed it all for me.
02:39Everyone turned to me, whispering.
02:44Chase never once looked at me.
02:47He just picked up where Daisy left off.
02:49Good thing he plays hockey.
02:51In my locker room, I'd feel dirty just changing.
02:56A few football players turned to me.
02:59Someone laughed and whistled.
03:02Wrong sideline, hockey boy.
03:05We all saw the photo.
03:06Didn't know you were so wild.
03:09Another one looked pointedly at Chase.
03:11Careful, QB.
03:12He hasn't set his sights on you, has he?
03:14More phones went up.
03:16The camera swung from Chase and Daisy to my face.
03:19They wanted to post me on the campus account, too.
03:22That was when my teammate, Finn, stepped up beside me.
03:24He moved half a step, blocking the nearest camera with his shoulder.
03:28Asher, the team needs you back.
03:31Thanks.
03:35That night, Chase didn't get back until almost nine.
03:38The door shut, and it was just the two of us.
03:42I thought he'd finally explain the photo, but he didn't say a word about it.
03:49He pinned me to the door and leaned in to kiss me.
03:52Don't make a thing out of today.
03:55I want you right now.
03:56His hand was already up under my shirt.
03:59I'm sorry, you...
04:00I tried to ask about the photo, but he cut me off.
04:10He yanked my clothes off and flipped me onto the bed.
04:13There was no hesitation when he pushed in.
04:16He drove into me until I couldn't get a full word out.
04:19Then his phone lit up.
04:20He freed one hand and grabbed it for a look.
04:23It was Daisy calling.
04:24He didn't stop, just clamped a hand over my mouth.
04:27He picked up, not a trace of it in his voice.
04:31What's up, babe?
04:32Why are you still awake?
04:33While he soothed her, he drove into me a few more times.
04:37Pinned down, I had to hide every breath.
04:40Before he hung up, he murmured one more thing to her.
04:43Get some sleep.
04:44I love you too.
04:51Once the call ended, he slowly pulled out of me.
04:53He wiped his hands with a tissue, his face unchanged.
04:57I propped myself up, my voice still shaking.
05:01Did that photo come off your phone?
05:04No one else has a photo like that.
05:06He didn't give me a straight answer.
05:08How it got out doesn't matter.
05:10Get this straight.
05:11Don't go digging it up to cause a scene.
05:13No one finds out this has anything to do with me.
05:16And don't embarrass Daisy or wreck my name.
05:19Keep pushing this and we're done.
05:21His hands buttoned his chert without a flicker of panic.
05:24I looked at him and almost laughed.
05:27Sure.
05:28Then we're done.
05:29We break up.
05:30Chase didn't take the word seriously at all.
05:33He let out a low laugh and grabbed his jacket off the chair.
05:35Come on.
05:36That photo just has you worked up.
05:38Cool off and clean up your own mess.
05:40I'm going to check on Daisy.
05:41She sounded off on the phone.
05:45He opened the door and left without looking back.
05:47A few days passed after the breakup.
05:50I was in the library, rushing something due the next day.
05:53Daisy called me.
05:57The second I answered, she was crying.
06:00Bro, can you come get me?
06:02Chase and I fought.
06:03He left me at a football after party.
06:06I don't know anyone here.
06:08Some drunk guy won't leave me alone.
06:10I'm scared to move.
06:13I forgot the assignment, grabbed my coat, and ran out.
06:19The party was at a house off campus.
06:22Inside, it was dim, packed, reeking of booze.
06:25Daisy!
06:26I pushed in, calling her name, but the base drowned me out.
06:30I searched every room I could reach, but found no Daisy.
06:33A drunk guy looked me up and down and laughed.
06:35Oh, you're Daisy's gay brother, right?
06:39A few guys around him joined in, laughed.
06:41Called you to clean up her mess again?
06:43One word from Daisy and the gay brother comes running.
06:45Honestly, come around more.
06:47Maybe someone here wants your ass.
06:50Please.
06:51No one would ever invite him.
06:54I flinched back, rattled.
06:57Someone shoved a red Solo cup into my hand.
07:00Have a drink.
07:01Don't be such a Buzzville.
07:02I pushed it back, and the drink splashed my sleeve.
07:06Another guy grabbed my arm and dragged me inward.
07:10I yanked free, and his grip left a red mark on my wrist.
07:14With everything I had, I shoved through the crowd to the side door.
07:21Outside, a row of rideshare cars waited in the driveway.
07:25The night air hit me, and I realized I was sweating.
07:31I walked to the rideshare pickup and called Daisy.
07:34She picked up.
07:35I heard car sounds and soft music.
07:38Daisy's voice was sweet and easy.
07:40The crying was completely gone.
07:42Asher?
07:43Oh, sorry.
07:43I forgot to tell you.
07:44I already got picked up.
07:45Chase came and saved me ten minutes ago.
07:47Did you go to the party looking for me?
07:48That place is awful.
07:49Want Chase to come get you too?
07:50Before I could answer, I heard Chase beside her.
07:53That's the athlete crowd.
07:54The whole room is straight guys.
07:56No one wants a gay guy.
07:57What could happen to him?
07:58Just let him call his own ride home.
08:02On the other end, they both laughed.
08:08On the line, the two of them rode back, warm and laughing.
08:11I stood alone at the empty pickup, phone in hand, frozen.
08:15I got my words out before Daisy could speak again.
08:17No need.
08:18I'll get myself home.
08:19As long as you're okay.
08:21I hung up and called my own car.
08:23Back at the dorm, I took a hot shower.
08:26When I came out, Chase was there.
08:28Lately, he rarely came to this suite.
08:30He mostly stayed at Daisy's.
08:32On my desk sat an electrolyte drink and a pack of Advil.
08:35Chase leaned on the doorframe and looked up at the sound.
08:38Daisy asked me to drop some things off.
08:40I walked over and picked up the bottle.
08:42He spoke first.
08:44At the party, you didn't mention us, right?
08:47Not a word in front of my teammates, right?
08:50Then he stepped close, his nose almost at my collar.
08:53You reek of booze.
08:55Who poured you drinks?
08:56Who touched you?
08:57Who'd you hook up with?
08:58He grabbed my wrist, staring at the red mark someone left.
09:02I pried his fingers off and stepped back.
09:04Asher, I'm asking you a question.
09:06As Daisy's boyfriend?
09:09He stared at me for several seconds.
09:12On his way out, he tossed back one line.
09:16Stop causing Daisy trouble.
09:19After that, I avoided Chase and Daisy as much as I could.
09:23But lately, Daisy suddenly latched onto me.
09:27At dinner that day, most of the table was Chase's team.
09:31I sat across from them.
09:34Chase wiped sauce from Daisy's lip.
09:36Easy and practiced.
09:38He took the last bite off her plate and ate it.
09:41Daisy smacked his hand, smiling.
09:43Not really annoyed.
09:45From the moment I sat, they hadn't looked at me once.
09:48Daisy propped her chin and sighed on purpose.
09:50Chase, you've got a whole team.
09:52Set my brother up with someone?
09:54He's gay and single forever.
09:56As his sister, I worry for him.
10:00She smiled around at Chase's teammates,
10:02putting my dating life on display.
10:04A few teammates burst out laughing.
10:07Nope.
10:08Not me.
10:09Don't make it weird, bro.
10:10Not enough to stare at on the hockey side?
10:12Keep that kind of thing on your hockey side.
10:22Only then did Chase look up at his teammates.
10:25What's wrong with you?
10:25You have to say this at dinner?
10:27The teammates shut up, looking sullen.
10:30I was surprised.
10:31Chase actually spoke up for me?
10:33Then Chase turned on me, irritated.
10:36Besides Asher, no one invited you to this dinner.
10:38Why do you keep clinging like this?
10:40Does it feel good hearing them mock you?
10:42Cheap, sick taste.
10:44Daisy jumped in, looking heartbroken for me.
10:46Don't talk to him like that.
10:47I asked him here.
10:48He's always alone.
10:49The hockey guys don't really include him.
10:51I just wanted him out for a meal, to meet new people.
10:53With those words, she made me sound pathetic.
10:55A reject living on my sister's pity.
10:58Chase tilted his head,
10:59his eyes full of indulgent for Daisy.
11:03Daisy's too soft.
11:05Always helping people who aren't worth it.
11:06Only then did he turn back to me.
11:08Don't be ungrateful.
11:09Daisy is helping you.
11:10Don't twist politeness either.
11:11Not every straight guy wants your eyes on him.
11:13Good thing you play hockey.
11:14My guys don't want to guard against you.
11:16In this circle, you'd better learn some boundaries.
11:21I shoved my silverware aside and stood up.
11:24Every eye at the table landed on me.
11:26I looked at Daisy first.
11:27You don't care about me.
11:28You put my private life on this table for them.
11:31I turned back to Chase and smiled.
11:33Guard against me?
11:34Every Friday,
11:35ten of you slap asses in a sweaty locker room.
11:37And you guard against me?
11:38I don't need to learn boundaries.
11:40Tonight I won't think of you.
11:41But you'll think of me.
11:43Bye, real men.
11:47With that,
11:48I turned and left the table.
11:51Behind me,
11:52the whole table went silent.
11:54Daisy's wounded act finally cracked.
11:57Chase's jaw tightened,
11:59his face hard.
12:00A few days later,
12:01I left the library.
12:04Chase blocked me on the steps.
12:06I didn't want to tangle with him.
12:10My hockey captain,
12:11Finn,
12:12stood right there.
12:13On the hockey side,
12:15everyone watched Finn.
12:16He pulled as much weight as Chase.
12:19A guy like that should draw rumors.
12:21He didn't.
12:22Zoe was always with him,
12:24a cheer girl and old friend.
12:25People never corrected it,
12:27so they assumed they dated.
12:29These became the most visible steps on campus.
12:32Everyone passing by looked over.
12:35Two years as teammates,
12:37we barely talked off the ice.
12:39Chase and Finn knew each other better.
12:42To Chase,
12:43Finn was a safe,
12:44straight guy.
12:45With a smirk,
12:46Chase pushed Finn toward me.
12:47Let me introduce
12:48my best looking buddy,
12:50Finn.
12:50You two know each other?
12:52He's on your own team.
12:53Too bad he's straight.
12:55Isn't this your thing?
12:56Try turning him.
12:57His voice was pitched just loud enough
12:58for the steps to hear.
13:00A few people stopped to watch,
13:01waiting for me to crumble.
13:02Then he leaned down to my ear.
13:04His voice dropped so only we could hear.
13:07Snapping at me in public?
13:08You just still like me.
13:10Apologize now, Asher,
13:11and I might forgive you.
13:13More eyes turned,
13:14and the muttering grew.
13:15Finn was my captain.
13:16I didn't want the team to reject me too.
13:18My throat went tight,
13:19and my fingers gripped the phone in my pocket.
13:21Finn acted like he didn't notice the standoff.
13:24He walked over and opened IG to add me.
13:26Want a date?
13:27Then add me on IG.
13:30I thought I misheard and stared at him in disbelief.
13:33Chase turned too, frowning at him.
13:35Finn, are you insane?
13:36Aren't you with Zoe?
13:37Finn didn't even look up.
13:38She'd laugh herself sick hearing you say that.
13:41Besides, don't you keep calling yourself straight?
13:43Then why did I hear you kissed a guy?
13:45Chase's face went tight.
13:47He stared me down,
13:48waiting for me to panic and flinch.
13:49I glanced at Finn.
13:51I remembered the sideline,
13:52how he stepped between me and the camera.
13:54Finn was a good captain,
13:55and he was bailing me out.
13:56I took out my phone and found Finn's profile.
13:59I'm in.
14:01Just as I went to follow,
14:02a hand covered my screen.
14:04I looked up and met Chase's eyes.
14:06His face still wore that calm look,
14:08but the hand on my screen was pressing hard.
14:12Don't do this out of spite.
14:14Finn let out a scoff.
14:15What's your problem, Chase?
14:16You introduced us, now you stop us?
14:18Chase looked cornered,
14:19but ignored him and stared at me.
14:21Think hard, Ashen.
14:22I won't warn you twice.
14:23You know what dating your own captain costs?
14:26I didn't look at him again.
14:28I brushed his hand off my screen and tapped follow.
14:30On Finn's end, it went through instantly.
14:33Chase stepped back and put his cool mask on again.
14:36Fine.
14:37I'll be watching.
14:39Let's see how long this sloppy romance lasts.
14:46Once Chase left, I finally breathed.
14:49I turned to thank Finn.
14:50Thanks for playing along and bailing me out.
14:52Don't worry, I won't cling to you.
14:53If it's a hassle, you can unfollow me now.
14:55As I finished, Finn was already tapping at his phone.
14:59He turned the screen to show me.
15:00He'd just changed his IG bio to a single line.
15:03It said he was just dumped.
15:04First love dead in 10 minutes.
15:06Wait, what is this supposed to mean?
15:08What?
15:0810 minutes in and you're dumping me already?
15:11For once, I was stuck for words.
15:13Aren't you straight?
15:14Finn dropped the careless act and turned serious.
15:16I've never officially dated anyone, but I never said I was straight.
15:20You all just assumed it.
15:21Why?
15:22I'm serious, but you use me as a shield.
15:24I like you, so call me dumped.
15:26He said it and made to leave.
15:28I grabbed him on reflex.
15:31No, that's not what I meant.
15:33Finn turned back and looked at me.
15:35So you're not dumping me?
15:38Before it fully registered, I found myself nodding.
15:41He changed the bio back.
15:43Easy and lazy again.
15:45Then we're good.
15:46Come on, practice.
15:47He suddenly held out his hand.
15:49Huh?
15:50For a moment, I didn't get it.
15:51We're dating.
15:53Can I hold your hand?
15:54I froze, remembering the early days with Chase.
15:56Back then, I'd tried to hold his hand too, but he slipped away without a flicker, smiling
16:01thinly.
16:01Don't, Asher.
16:02Two grown men holding hands is weird.
16:04Aren't you embarrassed?
16:06I came back to the moment and almost pulled away again.
16:08But if people see us?
16:09And so what if they see?
16:10He cut me off, took my hand, and laced our fingers.
16:13Without looking back, he pulled me forward.
16:16Be confident, Asher.
16:17No one gets to judge us, or you.
16:19His hand was steady on mine, with no intention of letting go.
16:24He held my hand down the whole hallway, out to the rink corridor.
16:28A few of the guys were there.
16:31Nice.
16:32You finally did it?
16:35Seeing us linked, they whistled, and one clapped Finn's shoulder.
16:39Zoe was there too.
16:40She grinned and gave us a thumbs up.
16:42She bumped Finn's arm.
16:44I'm finally free.
16:45No more covering for your gossip.
16:47And no one will think I'm your girlfriend anymore.
16:49Finn smiled, never letting go of my hand.
16:52I stared at the side of his face.
16:54As he pulled me along, my steady heartbeat skipped.
17:00Word that Finn and I held hands reached Daisy fast.
17:03The moment she heard I was dating, she booked a restaurant table.
17:07Then she sent the address, forcing me to bring Finn.
17:10She left me no room to say no.
17:12But this time, I didn't come alone.
17:15The second she saw Finn, Daisy's smile slipped.
17:18Finn, you're really my brother's boyfriend?
17:20Finn pulled out my chair, before sitting himself.
17:23What else?
17:25You told him to bring a boyfriend.
17:27So here I am.
17:28Daisy flipped through the menu and forced her smile back.
17:30No one had touched the appetizers on the table.
17:33I didn't mean that.
17:34I just don't want Finn uncomfortable.
17:35Did my brother pest you until you couldn't say no?
17:38She looked innocent, but the words were aimed at Chase.
17:40Chase straightened his cutlery and scoffered along.
17:43Daisy wouldn't quit.
17:44She propped her chin and looked at Finn.
17:46So Finn, what do you even see in my brother?
17:48So many pretty girls here.
17:49Why pick him?
17:50Finn looked at her steadily for a few seconds.
17:52Then he turned lazily towards Chase.
17:54And you, Chase, what do you see in Daisy?
17:56Are there no other girls in the world?
17:58That shut Daisy up on the spot.
18:00Her face flushed red and no words came.
18:02Finn gave her no out and added one more.
18:05You can twist your brother, but can't take it back the same way?
18:10Chase set down his cutlery with a small clink.
18:13He lowered his voice with a hint of warning.
18:16Daisy has a point.
18:17Are you two done?
18:19Stop faking a couple.
18:20You sit there as polite as strangers.
18:22Honestly, it looks more like Ash grabbed someone to perform for us.
18:26Finn raised an eyebrow.
18:27Yeah?
18:28What gave you that idea?
18:29Do I have to report every time we kiss?
18:31Chase's hand paused.
18:33He recovered fast and let out a low laugh.
18:37Kiss?
18:38His gaze drifted over my lips.
18:41Halfway through the meal, I got up for the restroom.
18:43When I came out, Chase was waiting at the door.
18:46He jerked his chin, signaling me to follow him out.
18:50Not wanting a scene inside, I followed him through the side exit.
18:54Outside was a parking lot.
18:58He leaned by the door and lit a cigarette.
19:01A smile in his eyes.
19:02He spoke first.
19:04So, did you really kiss him?
19:05I said nothing, not bothering with him.
19:08Chase flicked his ash and closed in slowly.
19:10Don't lie, Ashel.
19:11What's wrong with you?
19:12My face hardened, and I turned to go back.
19:15He grabbed my arm.
19:16Someone who'd really kissed wouldn't act like you are now.
19:18He dropped his eyes to my lips, his voice low.
19:21A real kiss leaves this swollen all day.
19:24You wouldn't go easy either.
19:25You like to bite.
19:28Lips to neck to collarbone.
19:30Then you kiss lower and lower, Asher.
19:32He pinned me to the wall and breathed my name.
19:34The old me would have melted.
19:39I laughed once.
19:40Got another cigarette?
19:42Surprised, he raised a brow and held out the one from his lips.
19:46I caught it between my lips and took a deep drag.
19:48He watched my lips, then my throat.
19:50His gaze slid lower, and his body pressed closer.
19:53His breathing grew heavy, and his hands started to wander.
19:56The moment his hand groped my pants, I ground the cigarette into his forearm.
20:00Shit!
20:00Chase's arm jerked, and he stumbled back.
20:02I watched, hard-eyed, as pain twisted his face.
20:05Chase, stay away from me.
20:07Next to Finn, you're rotten through and through.
20:11Chase took over ten minutes to return to the table.
20:13His face was dark, especially when he looked at me.
20:16Daisy glanced at us both and said nothing.
20:18The patio dessert was mine, sitting in front of me.
20:21As dinner round down, Daisy suddenly leaned over.
20:23Out of everyone's sight, she scooped a big bite from my plate.
20:26Before I could react, she'd shoved it in her mouth.
20:29Seconds later, she slammed down her fork.
20:31Heist spread on her face.
20:33Her lips swelled, and she gasped.
20:34Chase caught her as she started to collapse.
20:36Daisy, are you having a reaction?
20:38Daisy was choking and couldn't answer.
20:40That piscaccio dessert had sat in front of me the whole time.
20:43Daisy had to know there were piscaccios in it.
20:45She's allergic to tree nuts, and always carries in Spotted and Epec.
20:48One stray nut in a salad, and she'd spot it instant.
20:51But just now, she saw it clearly, and ate it anyway.
20:54And everyone saw the dessert was mine.
20:58Chase scooped Daisy up and rushed out.
21:04By the time we reached the ER, Daisy had gotten epinephrine.
21:07The nurse said Chase had gone to handle paperwork.
21:10You're her brother?
21:11I nodded.
21:11The nurse's tone turned stern.
21:13She's allergic to tree nuts.
21:15Family should know that best.
21:16How did she touch it?
21:17I opened my mouth, but had no time to explain.
21:20The nurse set the call button by my hand.
21:22She needs watching for a while.
21:23Anything wrong, or the IV pump alarms, press this for me.
21:26Then she left.
21:27Finn leaned to one side, staring at the unconscious Daisy.
21:30That sister of yours really goes all in.
21:32She wasn't like this as a kid.
21:34Something went wrong somewhere.
21:35After a while, the IV pump at Daisy's bed started beeping.
21:38I stood to press the call button for the nurse.
21:40The moment I neared the bed, a hand clamped my arm.
21:43What are you trying to do now?
21:44Chase's voice came through gritted teeth at my ear.
21:47The next second, he threw me hard against the IV poller.
21:50My shoulder and back slammed into the steel pole.
21:56Asher!
21:57Finn caught me and asked, low and tense,
22:00Did you hit anything?
22:01I think I'm fine.
22:03It took a few seconds before I shook my head.
22:05He half-held me and eased me into a nearby chair.
22:08Then he turned and walked toward Chase.
22:10Don't look at me like that, Finn.
22:11Asher brought this on himself.
22:12He ordered the dessert with tree nuts.
22:14I'll assume it wasn't on purpose.
22:15And just now, Asher only wanted to call the nurse.
22:18Who knows what he wanted to do to Daisy.
22:20Chase jerked his chin at me, his eyes ugly.
22:22Finn said nothing.
22:23And his eyes landed on the IV pole standing by the wall.
22:26It was a solid steel rod.
22:27I gripped the edge of the chair and called to him low.
22:29Finn, don't start something here.
22:31You'll get kicked off the team.
22:32He seemed to stop hearing any of us.
22:34Catching Chase off guard, he grabbed his collar and yanked him close.
22:37His other hand seized the IV pole, ready to swing it.
22:40Hey, stop!
22:41Security is coming right now.
22:43One more move from either of you and I call the police.
22:45She stepped in front of the bed, checking Daisy's monitor and IV line.
22:49Finn glared at Chase for two seconds, then tossed the pole back.
22:52He let out a heavy breath and shoved Chase off.
22:54That was Asher's dessert.
22:56Daisy reached over and took it herself.
22:57She knew she can't touch tree nuts and ate it anyway.
23:00Either she's stupid or she did it on purpose.
23:02You and your girlfriend are both rotten.
23:04By now, the pain had eased off.
23:05I walked over, not looking at Chase's twisted face.
23:08I tugged Finn's arm.
23:09Let's go.
23:10No need to explain to trash like him.
23:12Chase raised a hand to stop me.
23:13Asher, I thought he didn't finish.
23:16Ignoring the pull of pain, I turned and punched him.
23:19His head snapped aside.
23:21He didn't hit back or speak.
23:22Who asked what you thought?
23:24Chase, who are you to me?
23:28The hand at his side curled a little.
23:30He used to do that when he was was hurting.
23:32But so what?
23:32I didn't care about him anymore.
23:34Without looking back, I pulled Finn out of the ER.
23:37After the ER, I followed Finn back to his dorm.
23:39He lived alone.
23:40His roommate had moved out long ago.
23:42Finn pulled out an athlete first aid kit and spoke without looking up.
23:45Take your shirt off.
23:46I stopped scanning the room and slowly looked at him.
23:48He must have caught how it sounded.
23:49The moment our eyes met, his ears went red.
23:51No, I mean, I need to treat your back.
23:53I sat on his bed, hands behind me, chin tipped up.
23:56Then will you take it off for me?
23:57I just hit Chase.
23:58My arm hurts too much to lift.
24:00Head down, Finn fumbled through the kit.
24:02Fine.
24:02He crouched in front of me, hand half raised, afraid to touch.
24:05Easy, don't hurt me.
24:07Looking up, he undid my shirt buttons one by one.
24:09Halfway down, he suddenly stopped.
24:11The fresh bruise, the old wrist mark, and years of goalie scars overlap.
24:16Finn's fingertip rested at the bruise's edge, holding back anger.
24:19Did Chase do all of these?
24:21The shoulder was from a game.
24:22He turned me away, squeezed out ointment, and spread it over my back.
24:26Every game, I watch you the whole time.
24:28A bruise this place, this shape, doesn't come from a game.
24:33Cool ointment and his hot fingers pressed across me, inch by inch.
24:36My back tightened and my throat closed up, but I still wanted to pretend nothing was happening.
24:40His hand didn't stop at my back.
24:41It slid from my shoulder bleed to my jaw, then my lips, neck, and chest.
24:45It traced the exact places Chase had touched.
24:47I saw him kiss you outside the ring.
24:49My first thought wasn't shock.
24:51I wanted to tear him off you.
24:53His fingers brushed my chest, and my whole body tensed.
24:56My body's reaction couldn't be held back anymore.
24:58He gripped my wrist and rubbed ointment on the old mark.
25:01Then he pressed against me from behind, holding me close.
25:04Chase always saw me with Zoe and called me a safe, straight guy.
25:07I never explained.
25:09I let him believe it.
25:10His warm breath hit my ear, and mid-sentence he paused.
25:12I braced to sit up.
25:13Finn pressed a hand to my good side and pushed me back down.
25:16We were face to face, eyes locked.
25:18His voice was already unsteady.
25:20Chase wants you, but he's scared to let the football world know.
25:23So he hid you and used Daisy to prop up his straight face.
25:26His voice was already unsteady.
25:29The heat of his palm burned through my skin.
25:33Pinned under him, my reaction was impossible for him to miss.
25:37He lowered his head until his forehead nearly touched mine.
25:43I like you, Ashler.
25:46I want the whole world to know I like you.
25:50At that point, I couldn't pretend anymore.
25:52I reached up, gripped his Nate, and pulled him down.
25:55I kissed him first, caught his lip, and parted his teeth.
25:58As our tongues tangled, I felt him hard against me too.
26:01I hooked my legs around his waist and rolled them a few times.
26:04At the contact, Finn went stotted.
26:06He muttered shit, forehead jammed to mine, breathing ragged.
26:09Stop squirming.
26:10After several seconds, he spoke, voice horsey.
26:13You're still hurt, Asher.
26:15Not now.
26:15Just then, his phone rang.
26:18It was Chase calling.
26:19Is Asher with you?
26:21I came with his meds.
26:22He's gone and won't pick up.
26:23Finn hit speaker and tossed the phone aside.
26:25I instinctively moved to rise, but he pressed me back.
26:28Just tell me if he's there.
26:29Finn looked down at me and leaned in again.
26:31The kiss was loud, and after it, we were both panting.
26:33He's under me.
26:34Two seconds later, Chase hung up without a word.
26:37Less than two minutes later, a crash hit the door.
26:40Someone was kicking it from outside.
26:42The second kick was harder, and the door flew open.
26:44As Chase burst in, I just pushed Finn off.
26:47I sat up on the bed, fumbling to pull my clothes on.
26:50Finn stayed calm and glanced at the kicked-in door.
26:52He even had the nerve to ruffle my hair.
26:55Cheap door.
26:55Next time we get a room instead.
26:57Chase's eyes fixed on my face.
26:59I was flushed.
27:01Breathing uneasy.
27:01My lips were swollen and bright red.
27:04I always thought you and Zoe were a couple.
27:06Chase stared at Finn, his voice low.
27:08The whole room tensed up.
27:10Don't lose it.
27:11This is a dorm.
27:12I tried to defuse it.
27:13Finn reached over and fixed my collar and back.
27:16You believed it yourself.
27:18Whose fault is that?
27:19You were faking this whole time?
27:21Were you after Ash from the very start?
27:23Something in that hit a nerve in Chase.
27:25His face snapped, and he threw a punch at Finn.
27:28Finn caught his wrist and wrenched it back hard.
27:30Yeah.
27:32Back when you had Asher, I already wanted him.
27:35Lucky for me, he chose me now.
27:39Chase gritted his teeth, his eyes gone red.
27:42The forever composed golden boy couldn't hold it together now.
27:45You knew Asher was mine!
27:47How dare you touch him!
27:48The two of them nearly grappled again.
27:50I frowned.
27:52Chase, are you done?
27:53He touches you and I can't hit him?
27:55I stepped in front of Finn and faced him evenly.
27:58He's my boyfriend.
27:59Whatever we do is our right, and I should thank you.
28:01You called it off and pushed him right at me.
28:03The anger drained from Chase's face.
28:05He stared at me, looking lost.
28:06I said no more and pulled Finn to leave.
28:09But I never truly wanted you with anyone else.
28:11Near the door, Chase's quiet voice came from behind.
28:14Didn't you say you'd always like me?
28:16Liar!
28:16I turned back and looked at Chase.
28:18I stopped liking you the day you refused to go public.
28:21Finn cleared his throat and puffed out his chest.
28:23I went public on day one.
28:25IG, Snap, even my Finsta.
28:28All this time, everything I did had nothing to do with you.
28:30What makes you think I still like you?
28:32Because you hid me while playing couple with Daisy for everyone?
28:34You don't get to use me as a sex toy and only care in bed.
28:38Finn wasn't done.
28:39Smugness in his eyes.
28:40And I never hid him.
28:41I confessed ages ago.
28:43Chase's face paled.
28:44He forced out a stiff smile.
28:45Why so serious?
28:46It's fine.
28:47You don't like me anymore?
28:48That's fine too.
28:48I looked at him and felt nothing at all.
28:50I even found it a little funny.
28:52What good was playing the heartbroken victim now?
28:56The next day, Finn and I passed the campus fountain.
28:59Daisy rushed out and blocked our path.
29:01Her hair was a mess.
29:03Eyes swollen, looking wrecked.
29:04Plenty passed by the fountain, and several stopped to watch.
29:07The second she spoke, she aimed it all at me.
29:10Chase broke up with me.
29:11This is yours fault, isn't it?
29:14You knew he wasn't normal about you and stayed anyway.
29:17Why can't you just disappear?
29:18I looked at her.
29:20Daisy, haven't I stayed far enough away?
29:22Hide.
29:22Transfer.
29:23Take leave.
29:24Move away.
29:25Vanish from me and Chase.
29:26And everything's fine, right?
29:28Stealing a man from your own sister, doesn't that disgust you?
29:30Finn's face darkened.
29:31He stepped between us.
29:32His fist clenched until it cracked.
29:34I raised a hand and stopped him.
29:36Finn, I've got this.
29:37But Daisy only pushed further.
29:39Cussing, she lunged a claw at my face.
29:41I dodged aside and clamped the back of her neck.
29:44She got no chance to struggle.
29:46I shoved her head straight into the fountain.
29:49A few seconds later, I pulled her up.
29:51Awake now?
29:53Water streamed down her face as she coughed.
29:55I looked down at her.
29:56What have I ever done to wrong you?
29:59All these years.
30:01When did you treat me as a brother?
30:03Not your gay brother.
30:04Why should I vanish for a piece of trash?
30:06Why didn't that photo destroy you?
30:09Her head snapped up.
30:10Her eyes terrifyingly red.
30:12That one line and I understood everything.
30:15She pulled the photo off Chase's phone and posted it.
30:19All she ever wanted was to see me ruined.
30:22I didn't ask a thing.
30:23Her face said it all.
30:26Her own words seemed to scare her.
30:29Then why did Chase stop wanting me?
30:32The crowd at the fountain kept growing.
30:34The school's sweetest cheer can sobbed and no one helped her up.
30:38Finn pulled off his jacket and I dropped it beside her.
30:44Without another glance, Finn and I turned and left.
30:47Daisy couldn't hold up either and went home for a while.
30:50That week, Chase vanished from campus completely.
30:53No one saw him at football practice or the weekly parties.
30:56The two who guarded their image best were suddenly gone.
30:59After class, I went straight to find Finn.
31:01He said he'd walk me back to the dorm.
31:03As we walked, I brought up the injury excuse he'd used that day.
31:06I'm fully healed now.
31:08Finn didn't respond.
31:10At my suite door, he didn't wait for me to go in first.
31:13Dipped down to my lips.
31:14One hand gripping my nape.
31:16His tongue pushed in, bolder than that day, leading me.
31:19Mid-kiss his breathing broke and the hand holding me shook.
31:23I held his neck and let the kiss go deeper.
31:25Just as we broke apart, the suite door opened from inside.
31:28Chase stood in the doorway.
31:30We'd always shared this suite and his things were still inside.
31:32He caught the tail end of our kiss.
31:34Head back first.
31:35Staying calm, I told Finn to go first.
31:38Finn glanced at Chase, said nothing more, and left.
31:42Chase stepped out and blocked my way.
31:44He stared hard at my mouth.
31:46His tongue was down your throat.
31:47You can stand that?
31:48Asher, when did you get so cheap?
31:49Those two lines were too loud.
31:51Everyone in the hall turned around.
31:53You slept with Finn, too?
31:54Someone touches you and you spread your legs.
31:56That's who you are.
31:57Chase kept going.
31:58Whoever sleeps with you that week becomes your boyfriend.
32:01Finn will see it.
32:02You're nothing special.
32:03Anyone can have you.
32:06Doors down the hall opened one by one.
32:09Some stopped walking.
32:11Others raised their phones.
32:13Someone in the crowd murmured,
32:14Is that Chase?
32:15The quarterback?
32:16Isn't he Daisy's boyfriend?
32:18Why is he into her brother?
32:19I no longer cared what people said.
32:20Looking at Chase, I just found it absurd.
32:23Here's the biggest difference between you and Finn.
32:27He never uses these things to hurt me.
32:30And you?
32:33Hurting me is all you know.
32:34Chase blanked for a moment.
32:36Then he drew a breath and stood tall toward the cameras.
32:39He raised his voice so everyone there could hear.
32:41Yes, Asher and I used to be together.
32:43I liked him for a long time.
32:45I already came out to my parents.
32:46No more pretending.
32:48Film all you want.
32:49I'm not scared.
32:50He looked back at me with an almost tragic seriousness.
32:53I admitted it publicly.
32:55My pride is gone.
32:57I went this far, Asher.
32:59What more do you want?
33:00He almost made me laugh.
33:02Going public was never a prize, Chase.
33:04You hid me for six months.
33:06One speech erases that.
33:08You insulted me.
33:09Then want me back.
33:10Should I be moved?
33:11What did you reveal?
33:13Only how great you think you are.
33:15Chase stared at me.
33:16His eyes sinking.
33:17No, Asher.
33:18You've always loved me.
33:21Finn doesn't deserve you.
33:23I didn't answer him.
33:25I turned and walked out through the crowd.
33:30The hallway video from days ago had spread across campus.
33:33Right after came Chase's football game.
33:36It was his home game.
33:39Under all the talk from that video, he fell apart on the field.
33:42His throws kept missing.
33:44Sailing high or getting picked off.
33:46Once.
33:47Right after the snap, a sack slammed him to the ground.
33:50Daisy stood on the cheer sideline, forcing her smile to hold.
33:53Her pompoms never dared to stop.
33:55The worse he played, the stiffer her smile got.
33:58The final whistle blew.
34:00They lost.
34:01In front of everyone, Chase slammed his helmet down.
34:05You screamed all game.
34:06How was I supposed to play?
34:07Would we have lost if not for you?
34:09He dumped the whole loss squarely onto her.
34:11Everyone saw exactly how he treated his official girlfriend.
34:15The scene got filmed and posted on the campus gossip account.
34:17Soon someone set it beside the hallway video.
34:19One showed him shaming his ex, the other blaming his girlfriend.
34:21People dug up how he hid me while playing couple with Daisy.
34:24This guy can't throw straight or keep anyone.
34:26Hides one, fools one, then blames his girlfriend for losing.
34:28The comments got nastier by the line.
34:30His golden boy image broke in public.
34:33Daisy went down with him.
34:37She had wanted all eyes on her.
34:40Now the spotlight trapped her.
34:42My side had a home game too.
34:44For two periods, they hammered my crease.
34:49One hit knocked me flat.
34:51I got up and kept stopping pucks.
34:54Two periods in, they hadn't scored.
34:58In the third, Finn took over.
35:01He stole the puck and drove their zone.
35:07We won at the final whistle.
35:12The second it ended, my teammates rushed me.
35:14They smacked my mask and shook me.
35:16They yelled I'd held two periods alone.
35:18With them, I was never the spare gay brother.
35:21I took off my mask.
35:22A hype teammate kissed my cheek.
35:24Finn went dark and pulled me behind him.
35:27The guys G'd at his jealousy.
35:31After the game, a reporter asked about Finn.
35:33He looked the chairman didn't dodge.
35:35Our goalie held the first two periods alone.
35:38I just didn't want him carrying it alone anymore.
35:40He never said the word love, but everyone understood.
35:43Both moments were public.
35:45Chase was shamed before the school.
35:47Finn claimed me with pride.
35:48The campus gossip account ran the interview too.
35:51In the comments, some did come after our relationship.
35:54Is this the trend on the hockey team now?
35:55Did the goalie sleep with a forward for screen time?
35:57But this time, I wasn't carrying it alone.
36:00A teammate replied, telling them to guard two full periods first.
36:03Zoe re-shared the interview.
36:04Adding that it was long overdue.
36:06Finn pinned it to the top of his page.
36:08The little wave of attacks died down fast.
36:11After it cleared out, Finn didn't walk me back like usual.
36:14He scratched his head, a little shy.
36:16This weekend, want to come to my place?
36:18I want to introduce you to my parents properly.
36:20Zoe will be there too.
36:21I looked at him and nodded.
36:23In that moment, I realized I finally had somewhere to go.
36:28The weekend after the game, Finn took me to his home.
36:31At the front door, he was more nervous than me, palms sweating.
36:35My parents have been waiting for you.
36:37The door opened and his parents came out smiling.
36:40They didn't ask what we were or push any support speech.
36:43Zoe was there too.
36:44Come on, Finn.
36:46Seeing us walk in, she smirked.
36:48That one line eased most of my nerves.
36:50Finn's mom had saved me a seat and handed me a water.
36:53She also passed an ice pack for the shoulder I hurt.
36:56Finn's dad slid an extra plate of dinner in front of me.
36:59He asked if the hit was bad and whether it still hurt.
37:01They wanted no explanation, just treated me as someone Finn brought home.
37:04Sitting in that room, I felt a little dazed.
37:07One thought kept running through my head.
37:09I was home.
37:09Late that night, we went back to Finn's room.
37:12As the door shut behind us, I leaned toward Finn.
37:15Finn shut the door but didn't rush to touch me.
37:18He came close, forehead to mine, his voice horus.
37:21You took some hits in the game today.
37:23Are your injuries okay?
37:24I reached up and grabbed his collar.
37:27Quit stalling, Finn.
37:28Are we doing this or not?
37:30He pinned me to the door and kissed me hard.
37:32This kiss was heavier and more urgent than any before.
37:35I didn't let him do all the work.
37:36I gripped his nane and kissed back just as fierce.
37:39Still kissing me, he steered me towards the bed.
37:42His hands slid under my clothes, over my waist, back, and shoulders.
37:45Our clothes came off piece by piece and hit the floor.
37:48His bare chest pressed to mine, burning hot.
37:50Both our breaths broke, neither faking calm anymore.
37:53He was hard against me and so was I with nothing hidden.
37:58Right as he was about to push in, he stopped.
38:01Braced over me, sweat on his brow, he stared into my eyes.
38:04I'll go slow.
38:06If it hurts, you have to tell me.
38:08I bit down on his colopone.
38:13He pushed in slowly, so slow he was shaking.
38:16I tensed for a beat, then eased open to take him.
38:20I'm okay. Don't stop.
38:22With that, he finally let himself move.
38:24He barely held back after that.
38:26He'd held back too long, wanting me, but afraid each thrust would hurt.
38:29In that push and pull, I saw his eyes had reddened.
38:32It rattled me a little, and I reached for his face.
38:35Why are you crying?
38:36It just feels too good.
38:39I hooked his waist and had him lift me upright.
38:41He stayed so careful that I just moved myself.
38:45Finn's panting stayed against my chest.
38:48Then he let go completely, gripped my waist and drove up hard.
38:51Then he let go completely, gripped my waist and drove up hard.
38:55I cried out and gripped his hair as I came again and again.
39:03We went at it until nearly dawn.
39:07Exhausted, I sank into his arms, eyelids giving out.
39:11He held me tight, chin on my head, never letting go.
39:14I tried to push him off and get dressed.
39:17Finn only pulled me closer.
39:19We should head to class.
39:20Skip it.
39:21We stay home today and go nowhere.
39:24Home?
39:24Yeah, our home.
39:26I hugged him back tight, listening to his heartbeat in the warm bed.
39:29I finally had a place I could call home.
39:31A place where I never bow, explain, or give in, and someone still holds on.
