My Beautiful Doctor Vampire's
CHAPTER 1 - Rival
“Goooolll!”
The crowd cheers echoed in every corner of the stadium where M's football club was playing in the summer. Now, the eyes of all observers and fans of the ball are fixed on a new figure that shines on the green field.
Antonio Gonzales is a German-Portugal mixed-blooded man, with a well-built body and athleticism. A handsome face framed by a resolute jaw with sideburns as well as a fine beard and mustache, made Antonio's masculine aura even stronger.
One of them is Callie Izzard, a young nineteen-year-old girl, tiny and has a pretty face.
“Antonio!” Callie broke through the barricades of club M's bodyguards just to give him a parcel.
With a cold gaze, this man received a gift from one of his fans. He knew the girl's name was Callie Izzard, from several parcels that the girl gave every M club finished competing. It could be said that this girl was a fanatic of Antonio.
The dressing room was boisterous with their excitement over the win in the final round of that summer's game.
“The girl is cute too. Pretty, to be a girlfriend.” Bryan patted Antonio on the shoulder.
The speech was simply overwritten with a cynical smile from the twenty-six-year-old man. He instead offered the parcel that Callie had given him and Bryan happily received the parcel containing the chocolate.
“We will hold a party to celebrate our victory later tonight—and—I heard there will be an announcement of the results of the selection of players to join the world cup.” Bryan's hands were busy stuffing things into his gym bag.
“I won't be attending,” Antonio tukas short.
Hearing that, Bryan could only snort in annoyance. He already knew that his best friend would not attend events involving the crowd.
“I—”
“Yes, yes, yes ... you will accompany your mother at home.” Bryan cut off Antonio's speech and rolled his eyeballs upwards. His mother was the cliche excuse that their striker always used.
Finally that night, the players who joined the England national team have been determined, it is certain that the two reliable players from the selected club M, namely Antonio and Bryan.
In addition to the two of them, there were several players from other football clubs who were selected. However, the most prominent is the midfielder from club C named Lionel, the thirty-year-old man became the main pillar of club C.
He was pale-skinned and slightly thin, but had the same physical strength as Antonio. The two people even looked almost never tired at all, they were both very mysterious.
The three of them had a very good cooperation, despite coming from different clubs. The Three Musketeers are the nicknames given by their teammates.
“I heard, doctors for the national team will be replaced. Hopefully the one to replace is a beautiful and sexy female doctor like Angelina Jolie.” Bryan joking when going to afternoon practice. As always, the son of this coach, will always get the latest news faster than they.
Lionel grabbed Bryan by the shoulder with a towel in his hand. While Antonio only chuckled amusedly when he saw his friend was complaining of pain.
“You are why the hell!” Bryan grumbled as he rubbed his aching shoulder.
“Basic perverted brain!” Lionel and Antonio exclaimed compactly.
“Do not-don't you—”
Two sheets of towels floated right on Bryan's face.
“What the fuck! Are you guys crazy, huh?” He threw the towel back at Lionel and Antonio. The whole room laughed at Bryan who was sulking like a girl.
After cleaning the body, they and other colleagues headed to the field. According to the coach who is also the father of Bryan, James O'connor, today is the determination of the number and position of the team captain.
There is a fierce rivalry between Lionel and Antonio. Although Antonio is not ambitious with the position of captain or shirt number ten, but he is not the type of person who wants to be defeated by anyone, including his own friends.
The captain's position was finally given to Antonio, as well as the number ten shirt. Who would have thought the struggle for the position of captain was the beginning of a rift between Lionel and Antonio.
From that day forward, Lionel never again joined Antonio and Bryan. He prefers to dodge and train with other teammates.
Because it is considered too ambitious and his selfish attitude— finally Lionel replaced his position as a front midfielder. This made him hate Antonio.
“What if later tonight we have fun at the bar?” bryan's proposal to his team-mates who lately like being divided.
“You sure are good to have fun time, you are the Golden Child and the biological child of the coach!” Lionel satirized with sarcasm to Bryan.
Hearing the sarcastic insinuations, Antonio immediately went up black, he gripped Lionel's shirt and stared at him incensely. Had it not been stopped by some of his friends, a single blow would have floated on Lionel's face.
“Dragon talks, Dude!” snapped Bryan, “if you don't accept coach James' decision, you can protest him!”
Lionel picked up his bag and walked out of the dressing room while sneering.
“Sinting!” Bryan shouted in annoyance.
The atmosphere inside the team became very bleak, James had tried as much as possible to restore their compactness, but failed. All out of his control at the moment, both Antonio and Lionel, are both pillars in the team, it's just that the young man who was nicknamed The Next Beckham was indeed superior in terms of technique and also read opponents.
“Until when will you be childish?” James decided to call them both. Bryan was eavesdropping from the outside, just like a few years ago, when his father advised Antonio while they were still in school.
The two players only lowered their heads in silence, but their eyes glanced at each other sharply. Seeing this, James could only sigh in despair. It would be hard to put them together again.
“You guys release from training for one week, clear your minds first!” james said in a resigned tone, “you can come out now!”
Their auras of hostility were clearly visible to James as Antonio and Lionel clenched fists into each other's faces.
...----------------...
The cafe is quite crowded visited by young people. This is where Bryan invites Antonio to meet.
“Can't you make peace with Lionel?” He started the conversation after the glass of Ice Americano he ordered came.
Antonio's thick eyebrows frowned. He disagreed with his best friend's question, as if Bryan was the one who started the commotion.
“I've never felt hostile to Lionel. He was the one who started it all. I don't care if he slanders me and spreads rumors about me,” as long as Antonio sips his favorite latte.
Bryan sighed, Antonio's words were right, Lionel was the one who always started a commotion between them. He also knew for sure his best friend would not apologize or confess to a mistake he never made.
The relationship between the midfielder and the striker would have been very disruptive to the team's performance if not resolved soon.
“So you won't budge on Lionel?” Bryan is still trying to confirm Antonio's decision.
“To lower my ego for the sake of the team, I will forget about my anger on the field. But—if Lionel teases me again .. I make sure I will make sweet memories on his face!”
Antonio remained on his stand. They are also immersed in their own minds.
While elsewhere—a young woman was running in the darkness of the night, she was like being chased by something. Until he was finally caught.
The woman's strangulation ended with her last breath. The creature carried the body of the young woman, and he threw the lifeless body that was gradually cold into the basement.
The corpse slowly moved and rose back up to become like an undead. Sunken eyes, pale skin and sharp fangs. The woman turned into a vampire.
The next day, all the media in London was excited about the disappearance of some citizens. In every corner of the city there are also many pamphlets of missing people scattered.
The disappearance of the residents is a great mystery. They are swallowed by the earth. The body could not be found. The London police investigated about it and found a dead end.
