As they walked back to the locker room after a rather successful practice Rhaegar glanced over at Lena, his fellow teammate and knew that he couldn't wait any longer to warn her about her relationship with Chris. And it wasn't just because her new boyfriend was a Slytherin, actually Rhaegar couldn't care less about what house the guy was, seeing as he knew some rather great people who were and had been in Slytherin. No he was worried because the douche she had agreed to date was only in it for bragging rights... not that he believed for a minute that Chris had been successful in sleeping with Lena but she had the right to know that the asshole was already going around telling people he had fucked her.
Come on, you can do it, just catch her as everyone is leaving and tell her... Rhaegar told himself, that wasn't the only thing he wanted to tell her though. That douche had somehow over heard his plans with a group of friends to ask Lena out and had made sure to beat him to it... Now one might just call him paranoid by thinking that, but the smirks Chris gave him every time he walked with Lena, hugged her or kissed her even, told him he was right in thinking that.
Rhaegar's eyes kept glancing back at her as they all removed their Quidditch robes and hung them up in their lockers, and he was hoping that she would be one of the last to leave so that he didn't make it look like a big deal that he was holding her back from walking up with everyone else. He didn't even bother to put his gear neatly inside the locker when she started to walk with one of the other girls on the team. "Hey Lena, you got a minute?" He called, watching her stop and the other girl stopped as well.
Rhaegar gave her a look that clearly said it was to be a private conversation... and after a moment she seemed to get the idea and told them both she'd see them later. He watched her go, his hand reaching up and rubbing the back of his neck as he thought about how awkward this was for him. He was about to tell Lena that she needed to break things off with her boyfriend because he wasn't right for her... and it was very likely she'd take it wrong seeing that he was also interested in her.
"I'm not sure how to say this without sounding like a complete ass..." Rhaegar said as he looked back down at her. She wasn't exactly short, but she was a great deal shorter than him that was for sure. "But I don't think you should keep up the relationship you have with Chris... He's... how do I say this... He's not in it for the right reasons, if that makes sense..." He told her and secretly hoped that she wouldn't go off on him about him speaking his mind.

At the sound of Rhaegar saying her name, Lena turned around, halting her progress out of the locker room. Her brows knitted together as she turned toward him, wondering what on earth he could possibly want. Perhaps it was wrong since she was dating Chris, but she felt her stomach doing somersaults with his close proximity, as per usual.
Though she’d tried to hide her crush on Rhaegar for years, she hadn’t actually been very successful in that endeavor. There were plenty of times that her crush was downright obvious and those moments usually made her want to just melt on the spot. There was just no way Rhaegar would ever return her affections and she knew that. It was why she’d agreed to go steady with Chris; she was really just settling.
”Yeah, sure,” she said, waving to Luce as she walked off. It was clear that Rhaegar wanted to be alone and she felt her face flush just at the idea of this. Her mind was absolutely spinning and her heart was starting to pound. Saying “yes” to Chris hadn’t exactly eradicated her feeling for Rhaegar… nor had they lessened them apparently. She was still head over heels for this guy.
Did he realize how hot he was when he rubbed the back of his neck like that? Even if it was a nervous gesture, it made her heart skip a beat. Then again, Rhaegar could probably blink and she would find it sexy. Ugh, when would she ever get over this guy? Just thinking about him and whatever girl he was probably chasing after now made her heart actually hurt. She absolutely hated seeing him with anyone else, but she didn’t stand a chance up against any of them, apparently.
At first, she was too caught up in the fact that she was entirely alone with him to really comprehend what he was saying to her. ”Wait, what?” she asked when what he said clicked and she stopped trying to undress him with her mind. Her brows drew tighter together and she looked up at him, searching his expression with those bright blue eyes of hers.
Her face actually reddened a little and she couldn’t help but feel a little angry. So the guy she’d been crushing on her entire life never bothered to do anything but flirt with her and never stepped up to take their relationship to the next level… but as soon as she started showing affection for someone else, he suddenly didn’t think who she was with was good enough? Who did he think he was? Her older brother? She didn’t need someone telling her who she should or shouldn’t be with and it honestly frustrated her a little.
Okay, so she had been thinking about breaking off with Chris anyway… he was a bit of a douche bag and was always trying to pressure her to have sex, even though she insisted that she wasn’t ready for that yet. Honestly, she didn’t think she would ever be ready for sex with Chris. She wanted her first time to be with someone that she really cared for and she honestly didn’t feel very much for Chris.
”Seriously?” she asked him, her heart throbbing even as her temper rose just a little. Maybe he was right… okay, he was totally right, but still. It was frustrating. ”I don’t need a baby sitter, Rhaegar… Why do you even care? What exactly do you think he’s in it for?” Scrutinizing him, Lena didn’t want to get her hopes up… she didn’t want to convince herself that he was telling her this because he felt something for her because it would just feel downright awful when he denied it.

Of course he had figured she wouldn't take it with the greatest of enthusiasm... after all he would probably give someone a dirty look himself if they had tried to tell him he should or shouldn't be dating someone. But he was just trying to look out for her... well that was the main reason for it, but he also had very strong feelings for this petite blue eyed girl standing in front of him. Rhaegar couldn't ignore the fact that she actually looked even cuter the way her face flushed in anger at him.
"Yes, seriously. You think I'd just come up to you and tell you this if I wasn't serious?" Rhaegar asked her, his hand going back up to rub the back of his neck again. Maybe he should have just stayed out of the whole thing, let her figure it out for herself. But his conscience would never have allowed him to go through the days without speaking his mind about something like this.
He gave her a look, one eyebrow raised as he said "You and I both know what Chris is in it for, Lena..." He shook his head and let his hand fall. Of course his first response to her asking why he cared was going to be 'because you deserve better than him' but honestly he wasn't much better... having been with probably half the female student body already... but he never would have gotten with her just to be able to tell everyone he had fucked her, like Chris had.
"You do realize that he's going around telling everyone that y'all have had sex right?" Rhaegar said instead, which was the whole reason he had decided to intervene in the first place. Chris was, for lack of a better word, one of his best friends but the way he went around bragging about something like that just made Rhaegar sick. You didn't go around bragging about having sex with someone you're supposed to care about... you shouldn't brag about that in general actually.

"WHAT?" Lena fumed. "He said we had sex?!" Lena didn't know whether to be more angry or upset over this and her throat tightened in response. There was a hurt look in her in eyes and she leaned her back against the lockers, hugging herself and looking a little defeated. Chris had been pressuring her to have sex, but she didn't think he would stoop so low as to go around bragging that he'd fucked her... especially considering it was a complete lie! She always shut him down when she started to get uncomfortable with his advances.
Knowing that he was spreading this lie about her made her absolutely sick to her stomach and she felt her eyes stinnging with tears. She was fighting them back though. God, the last thing she wanted was for Rhaegar to see her cry. Talk about hummiliating. "Well I guess my reputation just went out the window..." she said bitterly, her face feeling hot. She looked away from Rhaegar, feeling a little ashamed and angry with herself for falling into Chris's trap. Now everyone was going to think that she couldn't keep her legs shut... despite the fact that she was still a virgin.
"We didn't, by the way..." she said after a moment, feeling the need to clarify because... well, Rhaegar's opinion of her mattered to her more than anyone else's. "Have sex, that is." Looking up at him, she swallowed hard. "He keeps trying to get me to do it, but I tell him no every time. God, I'm such an idiot. I never should have agreed to go out with him to begin with! I've been thinking about breaking things off with him just about the entire time we've been dating." Which hadn't been very long at all.
She almost let slip that she'd only agreed to date him because she thought nothing could ever happen between her and Rhaegar, but she managed to bite that bit of information back. "UGH, my life is OVER..." she proclaimed, probably a little dramatically as she leaned her head back against the locker behinnd her, close to crying.

Rhaegar actually felt bad for her, having to find out in such a way that her so called boyfriend had been going around telling everyone that would listen that he had “tapped” Lena Blackwell. Not that he was about to go telling her that Chris had put it so elegantly… that would likely only make her feel even worse about the news that he had just revealed to her. He gave her a sympathetic look, though he could never begin to understand how she was feeling right about then, seeing as he was a guy and most females didn’t go around bragging that they had slept with someone that they actually hadn’t. At least not that he had heard of.
”I know you didn’t, Chris is just an asshole that likes to make himself look better by spreading crap like that around.” He told her, giving her a smile as he watched her. He could tell that she was trying not to cry, not that he was about to judge her for wanting to, but he decided to ignore that little fact as she continued to speak, telling him that she had already been planning on breaking things off with the bastard.
Rhaegar gave her a bit of a look, his eyebrows lifting at her as she said that her life was over and leaned her head against the locker… A smile grew on his face watching her. Her hair, which was free from the braid she had it in earlier, fell down her back and over her shoulders and he had the sudden urge to push it off of one of them and run his fingers through it. So naturally he stepped closer to her.
”I don’t know about it being over exactly, maybe there’s some way to manage to salvage it, maybe your reputation as well.” He told her, his hand reaching out of its own accord and taking a lock of her hair into his hand, his fingers rubbing against the silky strands before letting it fall back down. His eyes, which had been looking at her hair, glanced back up into her blue eyes and he winked at her quite obviously. If there was one thing Rhaegar had perfected, it was flirting, especially when it came to Lena Blackwell.

Lena looked up at him as he stepped closer to her and her body instantly reacted, her body language adjusting and becoming a great deal more relaxed with his close proximity. Her lips parted ever so slightly and her heart started to race at an insane pace as he took hold of a lock of her hair. God he was so close... was she still breathing? Was he coming onto her? He was definitely coming onto her. No... yes. Maybe. She watched him wink at her and her breath caught in her throat. Okay, Rhaegar was definitely coming onto her. She was used to him flirting, but damn...
"I only said 'yes' to Chris because I didn't think I stood a chance with you." The words just spilled out of her mouth, her eyes going wide. She wanted to kick herself for saying it, but it was true. She didn't think her face had ever burned quite so hot as it did right then and she couldn't help but glance at his lips. She'd wondered for so long what it would feel like to kiss him and she just couldn't take it anymore. Maybe it was wrong... she was still with Chris, technically, even if she did plan on breaking up with him, but she just didn't give a damn right then.
She knew what she wanted and she was going for it because, for once, she was thoroughly convinced that Rhaegar felt something for her as well. Why else would he be so concerned about her relationship with Chris? Grabbing him by the front of his shirt before she could chicken out, Lena stood on her toes and pulled him down to her level so that she could place a long awaited kiss on his lips.
Kissing Rhaegar was better than she had ever imagined. There weren't just sparks in this kiss, there were fireworks and explosions so intense that they absolutely took her breath away. Her entire body felt like it was on fire and she'd never had a kiss that came even remotely close to this one. Lena hadn't exactly kissed many guys in the past, but she had a raw talent for such practices. Her confidence flourished and she released his shirt, hands sliding up his broad chest and to the back of his neck. She closed the distance between their bodies only to find that they fit together quite perfectly, as if they we made for each other.
The kiss had her head positively spinning and she pulled back, completely breathless and awe struck. "I shouldn't have done that..." she said softly, though she certainly didn't sound as if she regretted it. As a matter of fact, she wanted to do it again, any and all thoughts of Chris completely erased from her mind as she looked up into that ridiculously handsome face of his. God did Rhaegar Mikaelson make her swoon.
