Chapter four of "Guys and tennis lessons never looked so good"

I ended up in Ben's dorm room that night, but nothing happened. I guess that's how it goes when you find 'the one'. I decided to stick with one guy, no more running bases. " wake up, sleeping beauty' he says in a soothing voice. " uh.. yawn" i say. I sit up and get a face full of clothes in my face. " Here, I got some clothes from your room and here's your bag." he says. I blush and mutter my thanks. None of the others has ever been this nice and caring. Josh just gave advice, Dan was there for the sessions, same for Malcolm. I dress and he drives me to the main building. we walk in together and he has his arms on my shoulders. We get to my locker and..OMG!! what's Jordan doing here?! Ben goes rigid and starts to ball up his fists. " Ben, it's cool" I whisper "Lance, are we practicing tonight or are you busy?" Jordan asks. " yeah, we'll practice tonight.' I say " but I'm gonna have to take a rain check on the after play" I explain. he looks behind me and gets the picture. I watch him leave. " what's wrong?" Ben asks ' and what did he mean by 'practice'?", " oh...um, I'll tell you but you gotta keep it a secret." I say dramatically. Ben nods, I lead him into the boy's changing room. "I'mcoachingjordanandhetoldmetokeepitasecretsodon'ttellanyone" I say quickly
He looks at me with wide eyes. "oh so you're coaching him in tennis, cuz i saw that guy on the field and he's on fire" he says
" yeah something like that" I say
" what about the rain check?" 
" remember when you called him my boy toy?"
"yeah..."
"we fooled around once... and i guess he thinks you're just another base"
" what?!"
" the first practice, we went to the zinc and he got drunk..... stuff happened"
" are you....?"
" I'm still clean.. gosh!"
" yeah.. but a rain check?!"
" I don't know why I said that" i say desperately
" You could've gone all coach Jenkins on him and told him to buzz off"
" I know, I know"
" then, why didn't you?"
"I didn't know how?"
" wait.. what?"
"this is different, I haven't gone steady since before freshmen year" 
" just ignore him then, you're with me now right?"
" yeah.. I am."
Brr-ring!!!! Shoot the bell the frigging bell!!! 

"Sorry I'm late!" I yell bursting into french class. " In french Miss. lance" monsieur Pierre says
" Je suis désolée " I say awkwardly. Walking to the back of the class, Amber shoots lasers at me. " what? Delaney" I whisper
