Summary
“I don’t know why the fuck you had to keep your stash in my bag,” he snarls out after a heady moment. “They think I helped you, fucking...” overdose? Kent’s shaking. His adrenaline has nowhere to go and he hates it and he won’t look anywhere but the floor. "It’s a good thing that’s the only shit they found. They might hold me from the draft, if they find anything else - incriminating.” He laughs, cruelly. “Nobody's ever OD’d on pills like this in the League before. They don’t know what to do with it.”
OR: Within two weeks, Jack overdoses, drops out of the draft, and pushes Kent of out his life. Within two weeks, Kent says a lot of things that he means to his best friend in a way he regrets, becomes a Las Vegas Ace, and starts on the long process of moving on. In between, Kent remembers that things weren't always like this - they used to be good together.

Summary
If you’d asked Kent which he’d rather do - go apartment hunting in some fuckhole desert he’s never been to before, right before his debut season on a national team, or billet with a veteran like he’s done time and time again - he’d pick the latter. But if you’d asked Kent which he’d rather do - quite literally live as a homeless boy on the Las Vegas Strip, sleeping on public benches included, or billet with Bill "Carly" Carlson, Kent would be gathering up all his camping equipment.
Unfortunately, no one asks Kent anything.
~the one where Jeff & Kent live together their rookie year, and Jeff has a degree in dental hygiene~
