‘Small-town rookie lands a big gig’
‘Who IS Jameson Winters?”
I click on the last article, and his handsome face with the sweet smilefills the screen.
‘Jameson Winters, hailing from Christmas, Texas, has led his team every “yard” of the way.
Winters, 23, has two state Championships under his belt with the Christmas Comets. The high school phenom, along with his coach, the former NFL Quarterback, Jackson Gage, proved to be a dynamic duo as they took their high school team from zero to hero.
After graduation, Winters stayed local and did a semester at Texas U before enrolling at North Pole University in Candy Cane Key, Florida, where he led the Polar Bears to their first National Championship win. He was spotted immediately by the Carolina Warriors, Gage’s former team, but passed up a call to play professionally in order to stay another year in Candy Cane Key.
It proved to be a good move.
Winters won another championship, which only cemented him as one of the highest paid rookies to ever be offered a contract by the Warriors.
We’ve been eagerly awaiting to see what he’ll do. And by the looks of it, we’re going to be seeing a lot more of Jameson in the future.’
Sitting back, I breathe out a “wow.”
“This guy is something else.” I continue scrolling through pictures, and what I find surprising is that there are none with women hanging all over him. He’s mainly photographed with his PR representative, Francesca Gage, who is also Jackson’s wife. I love that he hired a woman.
Clicking out of all things Jameson, I click into the RAD account and bring up my contract. What the hell? Reading more closely, I see my three best friends,make that former best friends,signed me up for a weekend date with Jameson. Oh God!
I quickly shoot off a text to our group chat.
Me: An overnight date! Did you fail to mention you also auditioned me for The Bachelor?
Mia: Now that we know it’s with J-Dub, you’ll be thanking us.
Taylor: Hope you can handle him. I know it’s been a while for you, and well, have you seen the size of that guy?
I grow hot thinking of his size that I inadvertently ran my hand over. I grow hotter remembering the way his pupils dilated when his eyes connected with mine. And even hotter still, remembering how I wanted to taste every bit of him.
Me: Not just overnight. A whole freaking weekend! What were you guys thinking?
Suzanne: We were thinking you needed to meet someone different. Not the usual assholes that take off on you.
Taylor: And if you make a fool of yourself out of town, it won’t matter
Me: Thanks for that.
Unknown number: Hi Penelope. It’s Jameson. I hope it’s okay that I text you. I got your number from the site.
Reading the new text that came in, I get furious. These bitches put my phone number on this site?
Me: not only did you pimp me out, but you also make it accessible for murderersto find me? I’m done with you!
Unknown number: Um. I’m not sure what to say here.
I bobble the phone, realizing I replied in the wrong chat. My phone is lighting up with text after text.
Suzanne: It’s going to be fun. You’ll see.
Mia: Maybe if you’re away from here, you won’t feel so in the spotlight
Suzanne: Yes! Exactly. Be away and just have fun!
Taylor: Have lots of sexy fun!
