The locker room was noisy as always when Bella walked in. Bella has long blond hair, and brown eyes. She is the Bulldogs' Quarterback and the first girl to play football. Coach comes out of his office with a lightly tanned boy with black hair and black eyes right behind him.

"Alright, Bulldogs. Circle around me for a minute please." Coach said, the players starting to walk towards him.

"What do you need coach?" Troy asked. Troy was dark-skinned with short brown hair and brown eyes. He was one of the wide receivers with the other being Sawyer, who has short brown curly hair and green eyes.

"Bulldogs, I want you to meet your new teammate, Mason Jones." The boy who was standing next to coach waved.

"Why do we need a new teammate? All spots are taken." Sawyer said.

"About that, our linebacker Smith is moving to Tennessee and we have no other players." Coach informed.

"Oh, ok." Troy replied. Coach walked back inside to his office. The players went to their locker and started to change their football uniform and Bella went to her own locker room which the boys had made for her. Mason walked over to Troy.

"Um, hi but where's my gym locker?" Mason asked, Troy turned around to face him.

"Right there Locker 1135, right next to Newt's." Troy said, pointing to his new locker. Mason nodded and went to his locker and started changing.

"By the way, what's your name?" Mason asked across the room to Troy when he was done changing.

"Troy Dixon and this is Sawyer Higgins. We are both wide receivers." Troy pointing to the curly haired boy next to him.

"I am-" Mason started to say before he was cut off.

"Mason Jones, we know. Coach already introduced you." Troy had said. Bella walked out of her changing room and walked over to them.

"And I'm Bella Dawson, the bulldog's quarterback." Bella introduced herself.

"Hey, where's Newt?" Sawyer asked, looking around.

"Who's Newt?" Mason asked.

"Newt is our friend and teammate; he mostly sits on the bench. But he's late today because he had to go talk to his dad on the phone. " Bella explained. They then heard a whistle being blown by the coach, signaling it's time to go outside. They grabbed their helmets and went outside to the football field. When Mason got outside, he saw someone sitting on the bench.

"Hey, Newt! Come here, we have someone we want you to meet!" Bella called over to the boy who was sitting down on the bench.

The boy waved and ran over to them. Now that Mason had a closer look at the boy, his heart skipped a beat. The boy had brilliant blond hair and sky blue eyes.

"Hey, guys, who's this?" Newt said, looking at Mason.

"Mason, this is Newt. Newt, this is Mason Jones, our new linebacker." Troy introduced.

"Hi, Mason it's nice to meet you." Newt put out his hand and Mason took it, trying to ignore his heart beating faster than it was before, shaking it gently.

"I feel the same." Mason smiled at him and they stopped shaking hands. They just stood there, staring at each other, not knowing what to say.

"Hey Jones. Come on, and get in position." Coach called out to him. Mason nodded and waved to Newt who waved back and went to sit on the bench.

They started playing football for a half hour before they took a break. Mason grabbed a cup and started filling it with water before drinking it.

A few minutes later, they were back on the field, playing again. When they were about to start a new round of football when Mason caught something at the corner of eyesight.

"NEWT, WATCH OUT!"
