Summary
From https://fairyninjas.wordpress.com/2015/06/29/ssbb-55-guys-and-balls/: "A famous football player’s agent calls his ex about a non-disclosure agreement, and the fallout thereof."
From http://pinboard.in/u:janebot/b:38fa9dbdbcd7: "Wherein Javed and Adam were engaged to married in college until Javed broke it off to protect Adam's starting football career, saying he found another person. Now four years later, Adam is a first-string football quarterback star playing in the New York Giants and unknown to him, his publicist contacted Javed to tie some loose ends."
Author's Notes
This was an interesting (and very melodramatic) exercise for me, so I hope you enjoyed it too. ladysisyphus wrote almost all of Adam's dialogue and is generally a better person than I am.
