(AN- Jackie and Hyde meet in the summer before junior high on a sports team. After meeting each other again in highschool, they happen to fall for each other, but Hyde starts to change in the way he treats Jackie. Will she be able to change him back to the way he used to be or will their love plummet?...btw friends of mine that read this, this is the thing that Julia wants me to write about (coff) but its in my own words.)

Disclaimer- I own nothing but the plot.

Far Behind

"Mom I don't even like sports all that much why do i have to be on this team?" whined a 13 year old Jackie Burkhart.

"Because you need to get out of the house more and a soccer team is just whats good for you. You'll meet new people. Now no more arguing and get your butt in the car" scolded her mother.

Damn!.I really thought i was going to get out of that.

Jackie and her mother drove to the soccer park in silence. Looking towards the field, Jackie sees many kids huddled in a small group in the middle of it. She looks even closer and sees that the group is made up of mostly guys with only a few girls scattered here and there.

"Mom, did you know that the team also consisted of boys?" asked Jackie.

"Yeah...why is that a bad thing?" asked her mother.

"No...and I never said it was." Jackie replied as she jumped out of the car and jogged to the group on the field.

She stopped at one of the girls standing there.

"Hi I'm Jackie Burkhart" she offered her hand to the small girl who had her arms at her side.

The girl smiled and took the hand to shake. "I'm Sam" she said.

Jackie was about to say more when a short guy with a shaved head yelled at the group to stand ina circle. He must be the coach. Jackie and Sam stood side by side as the short guy named John ordered them to say our names aloud to everyone. Jackie was first and the little game went around the circle. Jackie looked at everyone whenever their turn came up, memorizing their faces and names so later on she wouldnt seem stupid if she couldn't remember. Across from Jackie, their was a boy with short curly hair that was staring at the ground. Sam seemed to notice that Jackie was looking at this certain boy and leaned over to whisper in Jackie's ear,

"Thats Steven but everyone calls him Hyde. Don't pay any attention to him, he can be a real jackass and an annoying one at that."

Jackie nodded and looked away from the boy.

Later on in the practice, John ordered everyone to partner up and practice passing with the soccer ball. Sam and Jackie paired up and when Jackie looked ahead she saw that Steven Hyde boy paired up with the really tall boy.

"Who's the tall guy that Hyde is with?" asked Jackie.

"Oh that's Richard. They go to the same school. This school actually." Sam pointed to the small elementary school to her left.

Jackie nodded again and looked once more at Hyde before turning away. Five minutes passed and out of nowhere Jackie hears a "Heads Up!" She looked up and ducked at the perfect time to see a soccer ball flying abover her almost hitting her head. Fuming, Jackie grabs the ball and throws it back to...Hyde? He booted it! Jackie rlled her eyes and yelled a quick "Learn to aim jackass" directed at Hyde. Hyde smiled and yelled a very lame "Your mama" joke back at Jackie. Jackass indeed.

The first day of her first sports team and already she hated someone.
