I felt the sweat on my forehead as I ran down the field doing a pole dodge here and a roll there. Now, as I was five feet in front of most of my opponents, it was just the goalie and I. I was setting up for the shot when the whistle blew. I automatically stopped to look at my coach to see that he is scolding the defense for letting me pass them. "Good Job Max!" he yelled after his scowl.
I went up to the defenders and gave them a quick pointer before coach called us in. "Great practice today ladies. We'll be ready for the Vikings if we keep it up. We have practice tomorrow at 8 am, so don't be late."
"Anyone want to go get some ice cream?" Nudge shouted, and almost everyone raised their hand. "Ok, after we're all coming back to watch the boys, right?" Everyone looked at her like she was an idiot. Angel and I chuckled and she hit the both of us.
When the three of us started walking to my car, I heard Sam yell "You're coming to our game tonight, Right?" I turned around to see Sam, Dylan, and Jake with all their gear.
"Yeah, we'll be back before it starts." I paused "Besides no one would miss this game." He laughed. "And I would hope for you to show us your support when we play them next week."
I was happy to hear Sam say "Another game no one should miss." I just smiled and got to my car, to see Nudge and Angel fighting over the front seat Seriously guys?" They acted like they didn't hear me so I quickly resolved the issue. "Nudge you got the front seat this morning so Angel gets it on the way to get ice cream and back to the game." God my friends…

Tonight's the night, the night that we will finally beat the Spartans at Lacrosse. Now you might wonder why lax is such a big deal, but if I told you that this is the biggest high school rivalry in New York then you would know why it is. Honestly, it's probably the biggest night of our lives.
"Alright guys huddle up!" I saw our student section was full, sadly theirs were larger, but hey, they are home. I could easily pick out my sister, who had number 18's away jersey on, Gazzy, number 18, has been her best friend since well forever. She saw me and she pointed to my girlfriend, Lissa, with my jersey on, of course she had a disgusted look on her face.
When everyone was around me I started my sad excuse of a pep talk. "We worked long and hard for this let's go out and win. Vikings on 3! One, Two, Three, Vikings!"
After we had our fierce game faces on, we walked to our positions. Let the game begin! I prepped for the face off. When the ref blew his whistle all hell broke loose, but what else can you expect from men's lacrosse?

With two minutes left in the fourth quarter 14-15 US! We're winning! And we have possession of the ball! The only thing that could possibly mess this up is if an idiot decides he wants to score another goal. And that's exactly what just happened… WTF… Dylan, we were winning!
Number 77 took the ball, good lord he's fast, no one can stop him! NO! This is not happening. Our student section is silent. He shots and scores. Now they face off again. The Vikings get the ball and they run up the field while passing the ball from side to side. Then they go in for a shot, our defenders swarm them, 77 drops back and gives the ball to 18. 18 swings around his defender only to be blocked again, and gives the ball back to 77.
"30 more seconds left come on D! You have to keep them!" I was silently shouting in my head!
"Shut the hell up Max!" Nudge said
"Yeah you sound like an announcer." Angel agreed.
Well at least I thought I was saying it in my head. 20 more seconds to go. 77 is messing around waiting for someone to get open, then he goes in but drops out quicker 10 more seconds… then the Defense could react, he throws the ball to 18… 5… he shots the ball… 3… and scores… 1… The Viking section goes wild!
We lost! God damn it Dylan!
"Because the boys lost that puts 5 times the pressure on us to win." Nudge said, with a giant sigh.
"God I hate Dylan!" Angel said "Now there isn't an after party."
"Hey there's going to be one next Friday!" I countered.
"True" They both said at the exact time. We all started to laugh.
"Hey because there's no after party, want to crash at my house?" I asked. They just nodded. I saw the deserted field and I just couldn't resist. "Follow me!" They looked at me like I was going mental as I jumped down from the student section. Laughing I said "COME ON!" They rolled their eyes, but they still followed. I grabbed our sticks from the shed. "If we want to win next week we have to work every hour of spare time, ok?"
"Omg your crazy! That's so much work!" Angel said, while Nudge nodded.
"But... totally worth it!" Nudge added. Angel simply nodded.
"Two vs. Two?" I asked.
"As always, but Max, where's your brother?" Nudge questioned.
"He'll be here if he wants a ride".
"I do" Iggy shouted from nowhere. All three of us started to laugh.
"Ok bro, let's see what you got. Angel and I vs. Nudge and you?"
