on
the team if I didn’t try to go big. Besides, I landed that same move the next
time I went on the track just fine.”
    “ Gonna have to work hard,
can’t have you pulling us down,” Jaxon said, but he was still smiling, his eyes
full of mischief.
    “I not only won’t pull you down, I’ll do better than
you in our first competition, just you see.” Jaxon extended his hand on me.
    “You do better than me at the first comp; I’ll buy
you a bottle of whiskey to celebrate with.”
    “Done.”
    “Don’t you want to know what will happen if I do
better than you?” I shrugged.
    “It won’t happen so it doesn’t matter.” Jaxon rolled
his eyes, grinning.
    “Get in the car,” he said, gesturing to the
passenger side. I threw my gear into the trunk next to his and got in.

 
    CHAPTER
4
    After the first practice, when I got onto the team,
I noticed that Jaxon’s demeanor towards me changed; when I hung out at the frat
house he noticed me more often—but I figured at first that it was just because
I was on the team. But it was obvious as the week went on that he was actually
seeking me out on campus; and he ramped up the flirting in a big way.
    When I was walking to the dining hall from one of my
classes, starving and more than ready for lunch—even if what the dining hall
put out could not, strictly speaking, be considered food all the time—he ran up behind me and called out my name before pulling the
hood on my hoodie over my head. “Big improvement,” he said with a grin. “You
look like way less of a babe this way.” I rolled my eyes.
    “Don’t you want me to look like a babe? I could
distract the other teams that way.” Jaxon laughed.
    “Yeah, but you’d be distracting your own team while
you were at it. That’s it, Mia: from now on you have to wear a hoodie or a
beanie any time you come to practice.”
    “You’re just worried I’ll beat your score in the
first comp.”
    “Hey, if you can beat me, I will buy you two bottles
of whiskey.”
    “Upping the ante, are we, Jax ?
That’s not wise if I’m such a distraction.”
    “I can use the distraction. I’m not like those guys
you dangle at the end of your hook in the Tau Delta frat.” I snickered. It was
kind of true; I was friends with the Phi Kappa boys, but at one of the frat
mixers a group of Tau Delta Epsilon guys had noticed me. Tau Delta was made up
almost exclusively of tech guys, nerds who were not all that unattractive, and
who were definitely doing better in their math classes than I was doing in
mine. I’d used it to my advantage more than once already in the semester,
convincing one of them to help me out with free tutoring in Pre-cal.
    “I do not dangle them at the end of my hook!” I said , just to be contrary. “I can’t help it if they’re in love
with me.”
    “You could wear the hoodie around them; see how much
free help you get then.”
    “I will get just as much because they will see me
for the stunning beauty I truly am.”
    When we were around the other guys, Jaxon didn’t
flirt with me as obviously, still treating me like one of the guys—which was at
least a lot more comfortable and what I was used to. I got to hear chapter and
verse about the girls in the sister sorority to Phi Kappa, and told them they
were all crazy—Jaxon included—for thinking any of the girls had any intention
of just hooking up with them. “Look guys, it’s simple,” I said, shaking my
head. “They wouldn’t have joined that particular sorority if they didn’t think
they’d snag themselves a hot guy they could get their hooks into.” Jeremy
agreed with me.
    “She’s got a point, there are lots of sororities—and
anyone can see they’re totally into us.”
    “Yeah, but they like hookups just as much as we do.”
    “They think they’re going to not just hook up but
hook you,” I insisted. Someone changed the subject to the most recent Preds game and I was back on normal guy footing once more.
Everything was how it
