Chapter 1
Davis woke up to his sister yelling at him that he was going to be late to school. He shot of his bed and quickly put some clothes on.
"Bye Jun."
"Bye dufus."
Davis opened his door to leave and saw Kari outside leaning against the wall looking at him with a smug look on her face.
"I don't want to hear it," Davis said.
"That's the third time this week you've overslept," Kari replied as they began walking to school.
"It's not my fault. I'm so nervous and excited for the game tomotrow. Scouts from some of the best universities in America will be here. This could be the start of my journey to become a pro soccer player."
"I know. Don't worry. You're gonna do great!" Kari beamed.
"I hope so. I just hope they are impressed. It's always been my dream to play professional soccer."
Kari smiled. She was happy for her friend. He's so close to getting to live his dream, but it scared her that the team might end up separating after graduation next year. She got lost in thought.
"Kari⦠Kari. Hey Kari, we're at school."
She was so lost in thought she didn't realize they had already made it to school.
"Sorry Davis, I was just thinking about some things."
"It's okay. Let's hurry. The bell is about to ring," he said just as the bell rang. "Damnit. How much trouble do you think we'll be in?"
"I don't know Davis. Maybe if you would stop oversleeping we wouldn't have to find out," she teased.
"Come on. Let's go," he said not wanting to argue with her.
They walked into class to see everyone staring at them. The teacher told them to take a seat and not to let it happen again. Kari and Davis sat down in their seats next to the other DigiDestined.
"Where were you two?" asked TK.
"Someone decided to oversleep once again," replied Kari.
"How many do times do I have to say I'm sorry?"
"Davis, I'm just teasing you," she giggled.
"Guys we're gonna get in trouble if you don't stop talking," Yolei told them.
They turned their attention back to the teacher and his lecture on trigonometry. Everyone except Davis. He couldn't stop thinking about the game tomorrow. He eyes drifted to the window, and he sat there and stared out the window.
'Why can't I just take my mind off of the game for just one minute,' he thought to himself. 'I just wish I wasn't so nervous. What if I mess everything up? Then I'll never get to play soccer after high school.'
Kari looked over at Davis and saw he wasn't paying attention. She knew he was thinking about the game. She made a mental note to talk to him later and help him refocus before the game.
The bell signaling lunchtime rang, and everyone hurried to the lunchroom to go eat. Everyone, except Davis. He went out to the soccer field to let loose some of his stress. He kicked the ball around and practiced some moves, but he just didn't feel like he was at the top of his game.
Back in the lunchroom, the rest of the group sat down for lunch and began talking about random things. After several minutes, Kari realized Davis wasn't there yet. She looked around the lunchroom to see if he was at a different table, but she saw him nowhere. Kari told the others she was going to go look for Davis and got up and left the lunchroom. She looked everywhere, but she could not find him. There was one last place she was going to look before giving up. Kari walked towards the soccer field, and when she got there, sure enough she found Davis out on the field. Rather than disturbing him, she went and sat in the bleachers and watched him. Kari watched him practice his shots and moves, but something about him was off. She had watched him play before, and he was really good. This wasn't the same Davis she had seen in all of those other games she had watched of his.
Davis was practicing a move where he would spin around the player and take the ball to the goal. When he spun, he finally noticed Kari sitting in the bleachers. He stopped and looked at her as she got up and walked down to him.
"Hi Davis," she said when she finally reached him.
"What are you doing here?" the spikey haired boy asked.
"Watching you practice. Is that a problem?" she asked with a little smile on her face.
"No, not at all," Davis replied with a smile of his own.
"Davis, what's wrong? Are you still really nervous for tomorrow?"
"Yeah. I'm so nervous, Kari. I'm scared that I'll ruin everything and mess up my chances of continuing to play soccer."
"You shouldn't be. You're the best soccer player I know, and I know that you are going to amaze those scouts tomorrow so much that they will all be trying to get you to sign with them."
Kari's words made Davis smile and turn a slight shade of red.
"Thanks Kari. That makes me feel better, but I can't shake this feeling."
Kari thought, but she didn't know what to do to make him get rid of that feeling. She smiled a little bit as she thought of something.
"Davis, if you stop thinking about it and being so nervous, I'll let you take me out on a date, but only as friends so don't get the wrong idea."
Davis's jaw dropped and he stood there blank faced.
"Great. We'll go tomorrow night after the game," Kari said and then she gave him a quick kiss on the cheek.
Davis fell over as Kari turned and headed back to class knowing that Davis would be fine for the game tomorrow.
Hope you all liked the first chapter. I plan on having second one up this weekend! Feel free to leave any suggestions you have.
