Desperate for Attention

Chapter 1 – Enter Aya Mazaki!

Disclaimer: Unfortunately, I do not own Eyeshield 21, just this plot.

It was a lovely day outside at Ojo High School. A lovely day to go outside instead of being stuffed inside this classroom, thought a raven haired girl with bright blue eyes. She was staring out the window paying no attention whatsoever to her lesson.

"Mazaki! Mazaki!" A shrill voice said annoyed and the girl sat up straight and looked alive. Her teacher, Mr. Yamamoto, stared at her with annoyance and said huffily, "If you're not going to pay attention young lady then maybe you don't deserve to be in the advanced math class." The girl smiled nervously and apologized.

"Shin!"

"Yes sir."

"Do the problem on the board and show Ms. Mazaki what to do."

"Yes sir."

A tall dark haired boy stood up and went to the board. A few moments later he asked, "Is this right?"

"That's correct. Good job."

He sank back down to his seat and turned to the boy with amber colored hair and eyes next to him. They were both none other than the Ojo aces Haruto Sakuraba, receiver, and Seijuro Shin, linebacker. Oh how I hate Shin, she thought, He's always stealing my spotlight! Then, a bell rang and the students cleared up and hurried to their next class.

Thank god they're both not in my art class, she thought, at least they're not in one of my classes. She strolled into her class and sat down at her usual seat. Then she pulled out a dark green portfolio and being sketching. "Ok class! Today your active pictures are due!" A short silver haired lady with glasses announced. Groans could be heard from the students as they pulled out their half finished projects. The teacher, Mrs. Nobara, went around the classroom frowning and giving advice to the poor artwork. When she finally came to the girl's desk she smiled and clapped with glee. "How wonderful Aya! You can really tell that there is action in this drawing!" She picked up her sketches of a receiver catching a football and started sputtering advice. 'You do really well with motion drawings. You should start a portfolio of different sports."

"I also believe there is a football game today. I heard our team is quite good."

"Oh, but I always go to the football games. I'm the team manager."
