Who’s Loki? (pt. 2)

Part One

Prompt: You're the baby of the team only being 18 years old. You are young and have much to learn, but you can't help but get yourself in mischief.

Warnings: BIG smut, language.

"I invited you to stay for a small while, not to seduce the youngest of us." Thor scolded his younger brother, who had his back against the counter rolling his eyes. "Oh please, she began that," Loki sneered crossing his arms. "Had you waited a moment longer, you would have seen more of a show." "I do not wish to know what you were about to do with young Y/N, but brother I will warn you now...If you make another advance on her or so much as make a suggestive comment towards her, I and the rest of the team will not hesitate in striking you down where you stand." Thor threatened a dangerous look in his eye. Usually, Loki would make a smug remark but decided it would be better to keep quiet. He simply nodded in understanding and that was the last of it. Thor told no one of what he had walked in on and he said nothing else to Loki or you. He had shown Loki to a spare room and shut him in it for the rest of the night, not wanting him to wander about freely. Thor knew Loki understood his threat, but he didn't know the mischief his brother may start when he was not being watched. The next day you woke up, pushing the events of the night before to the back of your mind. You walked anxiously down the hall, scared to face Thor. You feared that he had told the whole tower about the position he had caught you in, but you didn't show your embarrassment. You exited the elevator, now wearing spandex under your big t-shirt. You let out a yawn as you walked into the kitchen, heading straight for the fridge. You ignored anyone who stood in the kitchen, searching through the fridge for some fruit. As you picked out a box of strawberries, you shut the fridge only to be met by an all too familiar face. Loki stood, sipping a cup of coffee, a small smirk on his face. You jumped a little at his sudden appearance. "You that desperate for the good-good?" You chuckled, bringing the container to the counter. You watched as he gave you a confused look, not understanding what you meant by 'the good-good'. "I assume you're making some sort of mortal reference to the events of last night? As I would love to engage in that discussion, my dear brother has already threatened my life. You have been deemed off-limits." He spoke nonchalantly, taking another sip of his coffee. He put his back against the fridge, waiting for you to respond. "Sucks to suck," You retorted, biting into a strawberry. You made direct eye contact with the god as your lips folded around the fruit. Your comment and your sudden actions took Loki by surprise, his mind immediately beginning to wander. He began to wonder about how your lips would look wrapped around hi-... he snapped himself from his thoughts. Before he could respond you were already walking away. As days went on, the more you would figure out ways to tease Loki right under the noses of the team. No one, but you and the two gods knew anything of what had taken place between you and Loki, but whether they knew or not they were still protective over you. They didn't leave Loki alone with you often, Thor did his best to always be in the room with you two if no one else was. The flirtatious tone you held in your voice and the small comments you would make towards Loki raised no concern with the team. You had always loved to make people uncomfortable and figured that was what you were doing to Loki. The things that went completely unnoticed by the team, were the small touches you would lay on the raven-haired god. The way you would curve your lips around certain foods, the way you would suck your fingers clean of food, as you stared intensely at Loki. They took no notice to the fact that you always seemed to be next to Loki when you two were in the same room. Even if they did notice your eyes lingering on the younger god, they wrote it off as curiosity or a harmless crush.  As you walked into the kitchen, hot and sweaty from your recent training you were quick to place your eyes on Loki. Once again he stood in the kitchen, with Wanda this time. You saw a chance to tease him, you walked towards the two. You wore only spandex and a sports bra, carrying your water bottle. "Pardon muah," You smiled at Wanda as you shuffled between the two, acting as if you were trying to give Wanda space. You made sure to push your butt out just enough to have it slide across the black jeans that sat on Loki's hips. Your actions going unnoticed by a laughing Wanda as you blew kisses at her when you passed. You walked to the sink and began filling your bottle with water. "How was training?" Wanda started to make conversation with you, as you approached the fridge. "A bitch, but I think my butt may be getting fatter, look," You steadied yourself on the fridge and began bouncing up on your toes, making your butt jiggle, "Imma bounce this ahhs for a rich ass bitch!" You began to yell the song as you began to throw some ass, Wanda threw her head back laughing. The two of you were close in age and you were pretty close friends, so you acting like this was nothing new. However, you knew she wasn't watching you the way he was. You could feel his eyes, admiring your body. You stopped dancing, laughing, as you opened the freezer and grabbed an ice cube. "God, Y/N what a darling you are," Wanda said sarcastically as you rubbed the ice cube on your chest as if you were just trying to cool yourself down. You stuck your tongue out at your friend, rubbing the ice lower and lower, acting as if were simply innocent. As you and Wanda talked a little more, Loki watched as you guided the ice across your skin. He took in the way your spandex hugged you just perfectly, the way your bra exposed just enough of your chest for him to admire. As he stared he could feel himself growing, ideas of what he could do to you when the two of you were alone, ran through his mind. As Wanda and you laughed over something stupid you had said, Loki abruptly excused himself to the bathroom. You smiled as you saw him trying to discretely cover himself. "I gotta go shower, I smell like shit and I need to cleanse myself," You excused yourself and headed towards the elevator, but took a hard left down the hallway instead of going up to your room. You swiftly reached the bathroom, trying the door, you turned the knob and pushed yourself into the smaller room. You put your back against the door as you made sure to lock it, you were greeted by an annoyed Loki. He stood in front of the mirror trying to adjust himself in his tight pants, he held his green sweater up with his other hand. "You are quite evil," He grunted trying to readjust to make the tent in his jeans less obvious. A dangerous smile covered your face as you admired his exposed torso, he was toned and all you wanted to do was run your tongue over his abs. "What's the matter? Something in your pants?" You teased as you walked over to him. You gently grabbed his hands pulling them away from his body, placing them on your hips. You glided your hands over his torso, but he was quick to grab your wrists. "Darling, you're breaking the rules." He whispered as he held your wrists in both of his hands. Every ounce of him screamed at him to spin you around, rip off your spandex and shove himself inside of you, but he argued with his instincts. He took in a deep, uneasy breath trying to settle himself. "I make the rules," You said slyly, as you slipped one wrist from his hand and began to undo his jeans. He willingly let go of your other, letting you get into his pants faster. "You're not off-limits to me." You slipped one of your hands into his pants, grabbing him. Once again he let his head roll back, as you ran your thumb over his second head. A small smirk crept onto your face as Loki fought to keep his hands off you. You knew he wanted you, just as bad you wanted him and the fact that he had been banned from you, made things so much sweeter. You abruptly removed your hand from his pants, buttoning them back up. You quickly moved to unlock the door and pulled it open. Loki looked at you completely confused, you made your way back over to him and quickly told him to crouch. You tore the ponytail from your hair and began to mess with his. Loki utterly confused went to protest but was interrupted by you faking a laugh. He stared in the mirror at you utterly terrified. "What's going on?" Came Steve's voice as he walked into Loki's view in the mirror. Steve looked at the two of you, confused as to what was happening. "What? I'm giving this bad bitch a ponytail, sorry you're not cool enough to have long hair." You said in a matter of fact tone, as you continued to put Loki's hair up into a pony. "You're too old to understand, ask Bucky." Steve stared at you, slightly offended at the fact that you had called him old. You shrugged your shoulders muttering 'I don't make the rules, sorry' as you walked past Steve, leaving him to stare at Loki. Loki still stood crouched down, a low pony resting on his neck. "She's correct you know." Loki agreed, as walked past Steve as well. Leaving the super soldier to mess with his hair in the mirror. You had avoided Loki the rest of the day, purposely of course. Your little bathroom adventure, almost got you two caught...again. You thanked every god you could think of, that you had been able to hear the ding of the elevator. You weren't sure who the footsteps belonged to, but you heard them heading towards the bathroom and you acted quickly. You now sat in your bedroom, laying in a tight tank top and your underwear. You didn't much like clothes and if you could you would walk around every day in your underwear. You flipped through Spotify on your tv, trying to figure out what you wanted to listen to. Since your little touching fest with Loki earlier, you had been damp. In the shower, you had tried to relieve yourself of your needs but were unable too. You had felt how large Loki truly was and now you knew you wouldn't be happy until you had him. You settled for The Weeknd, Wicked Games the first song that began to play as you hit shuffle. You placed your tv remote on your bed stand and laid back. You slowly slid one hand into your underwear, as the other groped the pillow behind your head. Your mind immediately went to Loki, you closed your eyes so you could see his face better. You softly rubbed your bud, thinking of the things you would love him to do to you. Then you quickly dipped a finger inside yourself. You moaned as you pleasured yourself. "Very bold of you to believe your hand is an equivalent to myself," came Loki's voice from the foot of your bed. You gave him a lust-filled smiled, as you kept your exact position. You lay on your back, one hand gripping the pillow behind your head, the other still inside of you, and one leg brought up to give you easier access. "Bold of you to assume you're the one on my mind right now," You stared at him, your hand still slowly moving. You stared at him from your position, as he stood watching you at the end of your bed. You took your eyes off Loki letting out a seductive moan as you arched your back, gripping the pillow harder. "After this, I will be the only one to occupy that mind of yours," Loki growled, in a blink of an eye he had ripped your hand from your underwear and brought both your wrist above your head. You watched him carefully as he knelt back between your legs, pulling his sweater over his head. He then grabbed for your underwear, admiring the wet spot where you had soaked through. "I'd like to see you try," You dared him as he slipped off your underwear, throwing them to the side. He held a dangerous look in his eye, as he grabbed your legs dragging you across the bed so you laid completely flat. "You dare to speak to a god like that," He hissed as he angrily undid his pants. In less than a moment, Loki was hovering over you once again. He took in the way you looked, the way you writhed underneath him, he could feel your need for him. "You like to tease darling, so I shall make you beg." He slowly dipped into the crook of your neck and began kissing, you could feel Loki's length resting on between your legs. You could tell he was big, big enough for you at least. He trailed kisses all over your neck, as one of his hands traced circles on your inner thighs. With each circle, he brought his finger closer to your heat. You could feel yourself dripping by now and you bucked your hips towards his hand. You needed friction, any kind, you just needed something. "Fuck me already," You hissed as you looked him dead in the eye. He looked angry by your outburst as he pulled his hand from between your legs and flipped you over. His brute strength turned you even more. "You want to talk like a dirty whore, then I shall fuck you like one." He raised your hips into the air, as he used one leg to kneel in the bed and the other to stand on the floor. One hand gripped your hip and the other shoved your shoulders into the bed, without a second breath he shoved his way into you. He gave no warning and no time for you to adjust, you screamed in pleasure as he jammed his way into you. "Show me what it really means to be a god," You said breathlessly, as you gripped the blankets of your bed tightly. Loki smiled deviously, as he drove himself in and out of you. You could feel every inch of him inside you, you were a moaning mess. "Take it, you wished for me so deeply and now here I am," He said, "Say my name." You moaned his name, as he gripped your hair, pulling you onto all fours. With one hand in your hair and one on your hip, he pounded into you mercilessly. You could hear his moans as he reached deep into you, he felt every time you squeezed him. He wanted to see your face, he wished to watch you moan as his cock was buried deep in you. He swiftly pulled out and flipped you onto your back once again, once he saw your eyes he pushed himself back into you. Both of your legs sat on each of his shoulders, he kissed your legs as he fucked you. He bent you easily, as he leaned over you, your legs still on his shoulders. You sat with your mouth open staring at him, your face contorting into pleasure-filled ones. You could feel the knot growing in your stomach, it wouldn't be long before you came undone. Loki was so close to undoing you, but the voice of Steve interrupted your moans. Loki was quick to pull out of you dragging you into the bathroom that was connected to your room, you grabbed his clothes as you ran to the bathroom. You shut the door just as Steve knocked 4 times hard and fast and then entered your room. "Y/N?" Steve called, once he saw your empty bed. "I'm in the bathroom what's up," You said trying to calm your breathing, you leaned over the counter top, staring at Loki in the mirror. You watched as an evil smile covered his face, as came up behind you. "I can too put my hair into a ponytail, I admit it doesn't look the best. But it's here." He said in a matter of fact tone, as he sat on the foot of your bed. "I wanted to show you." "Alright, I-I'll meet yOU in the living rooommm," You struggled to speak clearly as Loki slowly pushed himself back into you from behind. Your voice got higher and lower, and it was almost obvious that you practically moaned the word 'room'. You gasped quietly as Loki pushed back into you deathly slow. "I don't wanna make you leave your room, I can just wait. You alright though kid?" Steve questioned as he heard your weird speech pattern, you let out an annoyed breath as Steve offered to stay and wait for you to finish. Loki watched your face as you struggled to talk to Steve, as he slid in and out of you. "Can you just go get someone, I'm not feeling the best." You accidentally yelled the first excuse you could think of. Loki had begun to thrust harder into you, as one of his hands reached around and began to play with your bud. "O-oh, yeah." Steve got worried, thinking something was very wrong. He quickly left the room but stuck his head back in. "Boy or girl, do you need a girl or boy?" He called not sure if he should get Nat, Pepper, or Wanda or Tony, Bruce, or maybe Thor. "Just go!" You yelled as Loki slammed back into you, as Steve's footstep disappeared, Loki slammed into you as fast and hard as he could. You moaned loud as he thrust roughly into you. Both of you were so close to the edge. You leaned over the counter more, laying more over the sink now as Loki repeatedly hit just the right spot. His thrusts became sloppy, but they were still rough. He grabbed your shoulders, giving a few last hard thrust moaning as he buried himself deep inside of you. He held you on his throbbing cock. You came just as he did, contracting around him as you yelled in pleasure. He rode out his high inside of you, your legs shook as he slowly slipped out. He reached over your shoulder, grabbing your jaw and smashing his lips on yours. It was a deep and feeling-filled kiss, but it was quickly interrupted by the bathroom door being kicked in. You grabbed the nearest towel covering yourself as Steve, Bucky, and Sam ran into the bathroom. Loki scrambled to yank his boxers on, managing to do it just in time. "Y/N the girls aren't home I-...." Steve began apologizing, his hair still up in a little makeshift ponytail on top of his head. He looked at the state you were in and then he looked at Loki, who stood only in his boxers. Both of you still breathing hard. "This better be a fucking joke," Thor yelled from behind the 3 other heroes.

Philippines vs Thailand Badminton Men's Singles Quarter Finals SEA games 2019, A Review

In this blog, I will be reviewing the court dimensions, equipment, basic skills, technical and tactical skills of each team, rules of the game, and how to officiate the game of Philippines vs Thailand Badminton Men's Singles Quarter Finals SEA games 2019.

Badminton that can be played individually or in doubles, consists of 3 games, being a match to the best of three (who wins the first two games wins). The goal is to reach the 21 points first in the game, having to have a difference of 2 points between them to finish the game. If the game reaches 29 × 29, then whoever scores the 30 point wins first.

The Badminton we know today was developed in the mid-nineteenth century by the British, but the act of playing with a racquet and a pen has been around for hundreds of years, especially in Europe and Asia. The game begins with the referee making the coin to give the choice between field or service to the winner.

COURT DIMENSIONS

Photo Credits from: GMA

The badminton court is 13.4m long and 6.1m wide. For singles the court is marked 5.18m wide. The lines marking out the court are easily distinguishable and colored white or yellow. The lines are 40mm wide. A court may be marked out for singles only. The back boundary lines also become the long service lines and the posts or the strips of material representing them are placed on the side lines. The diagonal full length of the full court is 14.366m.

The posts are 1.55m high from the surface of the court and remain vertical when the net is strained. The posts are placed on the double side lines irrespective of whether singles or doubles is played. The posts or supports must not extend into the court beyond the side lines.

The net is 760mm in depth and a minimum of 6.1m wide. The top of the net from the surface of the court is 1.524m at the center of the court and 1.55m over the side lines for doubles.

EQUIPMENT

Badminton Racket

Shuttlecock

BASIC SKILL

Grip

Like any racquet game, having a proper grip in badminton is essential. The correct grip will allow you to have more control and will help you dictate where you place your shot. There are numerous ways of holding a badminton racket depending on whether your shot is forehand or backhand. These are the following:

Forehand Grip is anything on your racquet side (right side if you’re right-handed, left side if you’re left-handed) whether it be overarm or underarm.

Backhand Grip is anything to your non-racket side (left side if you’re right-handed, right side if you’re left-handed) whether it be overarm of underarm.

Universal Grip is a type of backhand grip where your thumb has moved to the edge of the fatter face of your grip. This is used for backhand cross-court net shots, backhand clears, and backhand straight drop shots from the rear court.

Panhandle Grip is where your thumb and the finger pinch the top of the racket in order to tap/net-kill the incoming shuttlecock.

Serve

Service is another necessary skill you need to master for badminton. A good serve is likely to get you points and may give you some advantage during the rally. There are two types of services used in badminton:

High serve is used when you want to force your opponent to run to the back of the court by hitting the shuttlecock toward the rear end of the court (sometimes the corner). A good high serve will usually save you from receiving a smash from your opponent.

Low Serve

It is used to bring the opponent forward by hitting the shuttlecock toward the front of the court. If you managed to send a fabulous low serve, the opponent would have to dash forward and move under the shuttle to return it.

Footwork

Footwork is another vital skill for badminton. You have to continually adjust your speed according to the speed of the shuttlecock. The players have limited space to move around, so good footwork is imperative. Which is why with proper footwork, you will be able to conserve energy and face shots coming toward you from any direction.

Stance

While returning strokes from the opponent, the stance is a crucial skill required in badminton. Proper posture will allow you to return the opponent’s strokes efficiently and enable you to get an advantage in rallies. There are three basic stances in badminton:

Defensive Stance

You can use the defensive stance to defend opponents smashes.

To take the defensive posture, face the net with your body and put the racquet at about your waist height.

You can also use this stance to perform a high clear since you’ll need to make a fast, unconscious decision when returning the shot. Using the defensive stance, you could perform a lift to buy some time.

This time will help you regain your posture and prepare for the opposing player’s reply.

Lifts allow the opponents to send a return smash but this doesn’t make them an ineffective defensive stroke.

By using the lift from a defensive stance, you can look for the perfect opportunity to counter-attack your opponent, such as by playing a net shot.

Attacking Stance

The attacking stance will allow you to return a short or high lift from your opponent.

To utilize the attacking stance, try to get behind the shuttlecock, raise your arm, and then transfer your body weight to your racquet leg, and hit the shuttlecock as a smash.

By utilizing the attacking stance, and depending on the opponent’s stroke, you can also send a drop shot.

Drop shots can be used when receiving the shuttlecock from the front or back part of the court.

Net Stance

The net stance in badminton is used to return the opponent’s stroke after sending a net shot.

Place your racquet foot forward and your other foot backwards.

Place the racquet in front of your body slightly above your waist for the net stance.

One way to get into the net stance is by first using a tumbling net shot. The tumbling net shot makes the shuttlecock tumble and spin right above the net and into your opponent’s court.

After sending a tumbling net shot, your body will naturally put itself in the net stance.

When you are in the net stance, get ready to perform a net kill move to an attacking stance to perform a winning smash.

Stroke

Strokes are fundamental to becoming a good badminton player and executing superior shots. There are two main kinds of strokes:

Forehand Shots

Forehand shots should be played when the shuttlecock is on your racket side.

Your index finger will control the forehand stroke as you swing overarm or underarm.

Swing the wrist along with your index finger as support to play a forehand stroke.

Backhand Stroke

Backhand shots should be played when the shuttlecock is on your non-racket side with your thumb controlling the strokes.

While playing badminton, your light grip will mean you’ll be able to switch between the forehand and backhand grip at ease.

To play a backhand shot, hold the racquet with the back of your hand in front and swing your wrist forward while using your thumb as support.

TECHNICAL AND TACTICAL SKILLS OF EACH TEAM

Both players did great more so with the player from Thailand because their gap is very obvious. However, I could see the potential with the Filipino player but he lacked some support and a little bit more training. The score gap was also wide and hard for the Filipino player to catch up with ending the first set with 21-11, favoring Vietnam and with the second set with another 21-11.

The Thai badminton player was so great in playing. His stance whether it be a defensive or attacking stance, it was great. He possessed great skills in playing badminton which the Filipino player lacked in some areas. He is great with smashing the shuttlecock on court without getting it out of the lines, where if the Filipino badminton player attempts to do he mostly gets it out the lines.

However every match, there will always be a winner and a loser, however, I believe that if the Filipino player will furthermore hone his skills, we might win the next time especially if there will be more supporters for the badminton players from Philippines.

RULES OF THE GAME

Rule 1: Toss

Before commencing play, the opposing sides shall toss a coin and the side winning the toss shall have the option of:

serving first,

not serving first, or

choosing ends

The side losing the toss shall then have the choice of any alternative remaining. Ends are changed after games one and two. If a third game is necessary, ends are changed during the game after one side has scored 11 points.

Rule 2: Scoring System

A match consists of best-of-three games to 21 points.

At 20 all, the side which gains a two-point lead first wins the game.

At 29 all, the side scoring the 30th point wins that game.

The side winning a game serves first in the next game.

Every time there is a serve, there will be a point scored, unless that point is replayed.

A two-minute break between each game is allowed.

When the leading score reaches 11 points, players may take a 60-second break if needed.

Rule 6:Singles Play

At the beginning of the game (0-0) and when the server’s score is even, the server serves from the right service court. When the server’s score is odd, the server serves from the left service court.

If the server wins a rally, the server scores a point and then serves again from the alternate service court.

If the receiver wins a rally, the receiver scores a point and becomes the new server. They serve from the appropriate service court – left if their score is odd, and right if it is even.

Rule 7: Faults

If in serving, the shuttlecock is struck above the server’s waist.

If at the serve, the shuttlecock falls into the wrong receiving court.

If the server’s and receiver’s feet are not within the boundaries of their serving court and receiving court, respectively.

If the partner of the receiver takes the serve.

If a player touches the net with his/her racquet, person, or clothes.

If the shuttlecock is struck in return before it has crossed the net to his/her side. (The follow-through may break the plane of the net.)

Rule 8: General Rules

You should not serve until the opponent is ready, but if he/she attempts to return the serve, he/she is considered ready and play continues.

If in serving, you miss the shuttlecock, you may serve again providing your racquet did not make any contact during the attempt.

Birdies that hit the net as they cross during play are good and should be played.

If, in serving, the shuttle touches the net, it is a “let” provided the service is otherwise good and the birdie is served again.

Birdies that fall on the line are considered good.

HOW TO OFFICIATE THE GAME

Badminton officials play a very important role in the badminton matches especially in officiating the game. However, they are not as crucial as they can be in other sports such as football or basketball due to the lack of physical contact between players, they still are required in order to ensure a smooth and fair match. The badminton officials are divided into different roles or positions: Referee, Umpire, Service judge, and Line judge.

Referee

The referee is the most important official of the whole tournament. He or she is in charge of the competition and needs to ensure that the tournament is conducted following the Laws of Badminton (including court, rackets and shuttlecock measurements), the regulations of the Badminton World Federation and/or any other regulations that might be relevant in that specific competition. In addition to that, the referee has the last word if there is an argument between the umpire (in charge of the matches) and a player or team.

Moreover, the referee makes sure that the facilities and the conditions to play are up to the standards required for that specific tournament. For example, he has to check that the badminton mats are mounted correctly so they can enhance gameplay. Finally, the referee is also in charge of the approval of the schedule of matches and practice (if applicable).

Umpire

The umpire is the maximum authority in a particular match and it is in charge of the court. The duty of the umpire is to make sure that the specific match is conducted following the Laws of Badminton, the regulations of the Badminton World Federation and/or any other regulations that might be relevant in that specific competition.

It is the umpire responsibility to judge service faults and other player faults. The umpire keeps a record of any misbehavior or incident and reports it to the referee. He/she is also responsible for keeping the match score, which will be announced after each point of the match.

The umpire has control over the specific match but also needs to report any serious acts to the referee, who is, at the end, the maximum authority of the tournament.

Outside of the major tournaments, the referee will also take the role of an umpire in order to help with the process.

Service Judge

The service judge is responsible for making a ‘service fault’ call and to provide shuttles to the players. Due to the way badminton is played, the serve is one of the most important and perfected shots of the player and, especially when playing doubles, players will bring the serve to the limit of the legality in order to gain as much advantage as possible.

In addition to checking the service, the service judge usually takes care of the shuttles, providing the players with new shuttles whenever required.

In smaller championships, when there is no service judge, the umpire takes the role of the service judge.

Line Judge

The line judges are responsible for indicating whether a shuttlecock landed “in” or “out” if the shuttle lands near the lines he/she is assigned to control. Due to the fast speed of the game and the skill of the players, this is a very challenging job and, as a result, the line judges are the officials that usually get more pressure from the players.

In recent years, an Instant Review System has been implemented, that helps ensure that the right decision is taken, but which also adds pressure to the line judges as it clearly shows when a mistake has taken place. Each player has two incorrect calls per game of the match.

Depending on the level of the tournament, there may be as many as 10 line judges assigned to a court for a particular match. This is the number recommended by the BWF.

When 10 line judges are available, they are positioned as follows:

2 line judges for the short service line (one on each side of the court)

2 line judges for the center line (one on each end of the court)

4 line judges for the side lines (two on each side of the court). Please note that the exact location will depend on whether a singles match is being played (and they would follow the singles side lines) or a doubles match is being played (and they would follow the doubles side lines

2 line judges for the back boundary lines (one each end of the court). Please note that, in the case of the doubles match, these line judges check both the back boundary line and the long service line.

the artist | chapter twenty-two

Lucky for us, the virus hadn't returned to full force there in the Northwest at the moment which meant I could return home and sleep in my bed that night. Unfortunately, Joey still couldn't go home and Lars wasn't willing to risk leaving Washington state so as to go back to San Francisco. I didn't think it was fair to either of them given so many people travelled throughout the pandemic just so long as they kept their masks on their faces. At least that was according to Dave, whom I began referring to as “red Dave” to differentiate him from my gardener, whom I referred to as “blond Dave.” Tom also said the same thing, but with a caveat.

“All the times I travelled throughout the pandemic, I probably saw more people not wearing masks than people wearing 'em.”

“Yeah, me, too,” said red Dave, “so I think it's best that, if either of us are to travel, we do it alone in a car, or we do it in stints. Which means it'd be a royal pain in the ass to get back to upstate New York or even some place close by like San Francisco.”

Meanwhile, blond Dave and Stone offered to take me home as part of their trip down to Portland to bring in some new seeds. Before we left for Tacoma, I turned to Joey, Lars, and Chris as the three of them stood before me on the sidewalk with looks of concern on their faces.

“Be safe,” Chris told me as he put his arms around me and kissed the side of my neck. I looked over his shoulder right as Joey's face fell and Lars nibbled his bottom lip and shifted his weight. Caught in between three boys.

“Please be safe,” Chris whispered into my ear.

“I'm going to,” I vowed to him as I turned to Joey and Lars. The former put those long Italian arms around me and I wrapped my arms around that slim little body. As soft and warm as ever. I put my arms around Lars and he rested his chin on my shoulder.

I still had yet to pull The Artist on Chris, I realized as I climbed into the back seat behind Stone. I waved at the three of them but before we could pull away, Joey approached the window to catch my attention. He bowed his head for a look right into my face: stray tendrils of inky black curl caressed over my arm.

“Call me when you get back,” he said in a low voice.

“I will,” I promised him, to which he winked at me. I showed him a smile as I put on my seat belt and my mask. Joey bowed out and blond Dave pulled away from the curb. Red Dave and Tom were back inside of the building so I was met with faint waves behind a pane of glass as we headed off down the freeway.

While it was good to finally return home to Tacoma, and although I was close by, I couldn't help but miss them. They were my friends. And moreover, I had made quite the connection with Joey and Lars. It wasn't that long ago I wondered if there would ever be a soul I could form a deep connection with and walk with together to the very end. Now I had three boys who had fulfilled that wish. For me to love and befriend even in the face of a deadly virus as it returned to pandemic levels.

But at the same time, I couldn't help but feel guilty as I was lying to each of them. I was lying especially to Chris. I hated the fact that I had lied to Chris. I lied right to his face, and yet I wanted to make it right. I wondered if I could do a plan of sorts to break it to him, and do it in a way that was easy on the both of us as blond Dave pulled up to the curb. Like before, we were down the block from my house. Headed our way was a burly guy with a buzzcut walking side by side with a pregnant woman, who was also holding a baby in her arms.

“You guys stay safe, alright?” I told them as I climbed out of the car.

“You, too,” Stone advised me; he lifted his mask from his face to flash me a wink. Blond Dave flashed me the sign of the horns before he pulled away from the curb. I stood back and watched them off in the opposite direction: they were going all the way to Portland, a city I hadn't been to in what felt like forever. I was about to turn back towards my house with the mask on over my face.

“I'll meet you back at the house, honey,” the guy was saying to his wife.

“Okay, pookie pie,” she said, which made my stomach turn a bit. He kissed her and then he stooped down for a kiss on the bump. I watched her cross the street with that baby in her arms and I wondered what was going on there. I returned to the guy who had this intense look upon his face. He looked like a baked ham that had been pulverized with a shovel, like that haircut did not flatter his head at all. The fact he wasn't wearing a mask perturbed me a bit.

“Can I ask you a question?” he asked me in a low monotone of a voice.

“Um, sure?”

He towered over me, like a giant among us mortals.

“How can I get a girl like you to go to a show with me once live music comes back into fruition?”

“But, I don't know you,” I told him with a bit of a chuckle. I tried to step past him so as to head back to the house but he stopped me right in my tracks.

“Well, yeah, I know that...” His voice trailed off.

“Do you want me to give you some of my art or something?” I suggested to him off hand.

“If you'd like. Unless you're an art dealer.”

“I'm not an art dealer,” I promised him. “I draw and paint stuff and swoon over boys and that's about it.”

“Good to know. So tell me. What can I do, though?”

“You can start by getting out of my way first,” I commanded as I slipped past him. But he held onto my arm as I was about to get away from him.

“I have a boyfriend!” I pointed out.

“I bet you do,” he sneered.

“I really do,” I insisted as I waved him off. But he was too strong. His fingers hurt: even though the fabric of my jacket, I could feel the calluses on the skin. He was a guitar player.

“Go to live music not make it?” I asked him.

“It's one thing to make it, it's one thing to fake it.” I had no idea what that meant so I tried to get away again. He yanked me in.

“I saw you looking at me,” he sneered.

“I was looking past you,” I corrected him.

“Uh-huh, sure. I always wanna nudge girls like you with my boots.”

“Yeah, but you have a wife, though,” I pointed out.

“She's not my wife,” he said.

“Why'd she call you 'honey', then?”

He didn't reply. All I could think about was how he kissed her and then her big protruding belly.

“Who is she then!” I cried out. He shoved me into the bushes. I held onto my mask. I wasn't going to lose it over this. Not this.

“I'm like a shotgun down your throat,” he growled as he loomed over me. I landed on a web of branches, right on my back. He was bigger and fatter than me, like the possessive flesh fusing behemoth straight out of Stranger Things. Melted people together no matter who they were or if they were dead or alive and grew bigger and stronger in the process. Possessed their minds to bend to his will.

And now he was possessing me and eating me alive. He slammed me to the ground and kept me pinned to the hard surface.

“Scream and you die,” he growled; his breath smelled like an old ashtray that had been used as a toilet at some point. I pinched my eyes closed. I could see him on the back of my eyelids. It hurt and not in the way it hurt me like it did with Chris. He didn't go in with ease like Joey or Lars.

His body was hard and bulky, and I missed the comfort of Chris, the delicate softness of Joey, and the boyish sweetness of Lars.

I popped open my eyes to look at him dead in the face. Broad daylight as he ground away at me. Right into those luminous eyes and the indentation in between his eyebrows. Right at that straight nose. Right at that crooked mouth. Right at that cleft chin.

I wanted to punch him in the face, in that big belly of his, but he had too much of a grip on me.

I knew I was going to remember him for the rest of my life for what he did to me, even as he let me go and I was able to run back home. Lucky for me, I was alone. But unlucky for me, I was alone. Alone with that memory and without anyone to talk to.

Or so I thought.

I picked my phone out of my coat pocket and dialed Joey's number.

Everything was a blur after that. All I recalled was Joey's upstate accent and his gentle voice twisted with concern.

“Hahlly! Hahlly! What happened? Tell me. Tell me everything.”

I sniffled. It was so real and so vivid that it was hard for me to even so much as enunciate the words. It was one thing with him and Chris, but I didn't ask for this with that strange man. I was sincere when I told him I would give him a piece of art as maybe a means of telling him to back off, and he didn't listen to me.

“Hahlly?” Joey's voice broke on the other end.

“I—I was raped,” I whispered to him. There was a gagging sound on the other end and I only knew what that meant.
