The particular teammate in front of him tended to keep to himself most of the time as far as Adam could tell. They didnât interact much and more often than not, Adam didnât even notice him, not that it wasnât hard to go unnoticed by Adam. He was self absorbed, more concerned with what was right in front of him than anything else and Akira had never made much of a point to toss himself in Adamâs line of sight. That was before of course. Adam outwardly hoped Akira didnât plan on making a habit of his.Â
âYouâre a team.â He corrected. âIâm just here till someone else decides Iâm not anymore.â It was vague and he didnât plan on explaining. At this point, things could go any which way. While Texas was Adam Sr.s main concern, he would settle with Adam being anything but a fox. There was also Wymack who could let Adam go whenever he wanted. Either way, Adam didnât imagine staying was a strong possibility.Â
âAre you def?â He was getting fed up with the conversation, with the requests to explain himself. âI said no.â
âThatâs such bullshit.â Akira said, pushing himself back into a standing position, arms crossed across his chest. What kind of person plays a team sport with that kind of attitude? The Foxes werenât your traditional sort of team but even then, Akira was pretty sure Adam was the only one who played like that. He furrowed his brow and shook his head. âThatâs not how a team works. Or, at least, works well. If you donât play like you belong...which, you do, by the way. Youâre only going to drag us down. And we donât need that shit right now.â
âWymack wouldnât have let you join the Foxes if he didnât think you were going to be a long term investment.â Wymack wasnât like that. The Foxes might be fucked up, but they werenât a revolving door of fucked up. It insulted Akira a little bit that Adam seemed to look at it that way. âPut some damn clothes on and lets go. No way am I going to let you not come. We won. Letâs celebrate like you actually cared. Fake it till you make it, right?â He opted to ignore his deaf comment, fully aware his insistence would be more than enough answer for Adam. Fleetingly he hoped Adam wouldnât up and deck him for it.
