Darcy stared at the screen, his jaw tight, lips pressed in a hard line. The green dot next to Micah's name blinked steadily. Had he already been in a match with Archie? Had this pro player carried Micah in the game?
His stomach twisted a little.
Darcy clicked his tongue and leaned back in his chair, arms crossed. A bad feeling filled his chest. What if they clicked? What if they played well together? Would Micah still be excited to team up with him after that? Wasn't Archie the Captain? If that Vice Captain of SilverBlade Legion, DiabolicDestroyer, was that strong, what about their captain?!
And when had Micah even thought of this plan to shift attention? Darcy was sure it hadn't come from Micah. This sounded like Archie's idea.
He had always suspected Archie was into Micah. That night in the gym storage room, when they were hiding and waiting for Ashley and Russell to finish talking, Archie hadn't taken his eyes off Micah. Not once. It made Darcy's skin crawl.
