Ethan Oliver Harrison's POV“He's gay? And he plays sports? What a pervert!” One of the baseball players said, and his teammates nodded in agreement with him.I felt embarrassed, not because of my sexuality, but because I was becoming the real center of attention. I looked down the hall, and I saw my teammates. They were looking at me, and Coach Marshall had an amused expression.“Who told you I was gay? Are you gay? Is that why you are so eager to label strangers?” I asked with a calm voice, raising my voice, so that his teammates would hear.The UK player looked embarrassed. “I am a straight male. In fact, I have a girlfriend, so don't accuse me of sodomy!”I nodded my head, acting unaffected. “The only intimate thing you've done with your girlfriend of ten years is kissing her. You're gay! It's written all over you. You must be closeted. Is that why you're in such a hurry to label me? Why not attack Lambert since he said he was gay? What does Lambert's sexuality have to do with me

Kane Hau Alexander's POVI watched the international award ceremony in the hospital, and my eyes dropped when Ethan wasn't awarded. He was indeed the only player who deserved that award. I'm not speaking as his partner, but as his rival.Ethan tried to put on a bold face when a rookie was awarded, but the camera was fixed on his face, and the ceremony host purposefully wanted to humiliate and embarrass him.I clenched my fist, internally swearing at the hosts.“Isn't that your rival…what is he called? Hmmm.. Nathan…or is it Ethan?” My mother's soft voice echoed in the room, and she coughed.I turned to face her and helped her sit up. “Do you want to drink water?” I asked, offering her a cup of warm water.She shook her head, and her eyes scrutinized the room. “Where are your father and siblings?” She asked weakly.I shrugged. “They left. They said they had important tasks to carry out,” I grimaced.“Is that so?” My mother put on a smile, but I could clearly see the disappointment in

Ethan Oliver Harrison’s POVThe applause for the awards was still going on when I stood up. I didn’t remember deciding to stand. My body just… moved.“Ethan,” Daniel called softly, but I walked past him.I couldn’t sit there any longer. Not after that speech. Not after that look on Noah’s face. Not after hearing them laugh. Not after knowing that I wasn't as important as I thought.The hallway outside the ceremony hall was quieter, but not silent. There were still people moving around, staff, security, and a few athletes lingering.I kept walking until I reached a secluded corner. Then I stopped. My hands clenched into fists, and I angrily punched the walls, getting a cut in the process.“…Pathetic,” I muttered under my breath.I didn’t know if I was talking about them… or myself.I was about to tend to my injury, when I heard footsteps approaching.“Ethan!” a husky voice called out to me.I didn’t need to turn around to know who it was. “Coach Marshall,” I exhaled slowly and faced h

Kane Hau Alexander's POVI boarded my flight to Canada. It was unexpected, because I was supposed to be in either London for the award ceremony or California for season training.Luckily, earlier that day, I had informed my manager about my trip, and he had changed my schedule. According to my new schedule, I'd have about four days to spend in Toronto, Canada, before heading back to California.And because I didn't want to arouse suspicion, I bought a new house in Canada, and I'd told my coach that I was personally renovating the house.When my plane landed in Canada, I booked a hotel, took a warm shower, and lay on my bed, hoping to rest for a while. Unfortunately, I dozed off. My growling belly and my phone's ringing tone woke me up the next morning. There were over twenty missed calls from Geneva, two missed calls from Eve (Ethan), and seven missed calls from Carl.I wanted to call Ethan, but I made a mistake and clicked on Carl's number. I tried to cut the call, but he picked it

Kane Hau Alexander’s POVI froze. “You like me?” I repeated his words.‘He likes me?’ My eyes stayed on him, searching for something… hesitation, doubt, anything that would make this easier to dismiss.But there was none. Only honesty, and his raw intense feeling.When I told Coach Marshall I wanted something in return, it was a lie. I never wanted anything. I just needed a reason… something that would stop Ethan from looking too closely at me. Something that would make him not think that I was doing all of this for him.“Have you forgotten what I told you in the beginning?” I asked, forcing my voice to remain steady as I looked away.Ethan’s eyes dropped. “No. You said you don’t believe in love… and you will never love me.” His voice cracked. “I’m not asking you to love me. I just want you to know how I feel.”Tears slid down his face, but I said nothing. Instead, I stood and walked to the window, staring out at the dark sky like it could give me an answer.“Do you even know me?” I a
