Ok now on to the story.
Chapter 2 Soccer
A few weeks later the days got shorter, it got colder and it was time for me to stat taking care of my appearance. It was the stars of sophomore year at school. UGH high school, the most painful experience an adult can put a teen though. So much drama: friends, boys, teachers, appearance and grades. But I had to tough it out.
I pulled my chocolate brown hair into a ponytail. Put on my old favorite pair of jeans and slipped on my new favorite purple shirt. This was as good as it was going to get.
I skipped lightly down the stairs being careful not to wake my mom. I quickly threw a pop tart in to the toaster and threw my old beat up version of Romeo and Juliet in my backpack and headed out the door.
As I drove in my old beat up black ford truck my cell rang. It flashed Alice.
"Hola!" I greeted
"Hey can you pick me up today? My dad is off at work and my car isn't starting!!"
"Ok I'll see ya in a few minutes." I said.
"Kay."
"Tootles"
As I drove up the drive way to Alice's house came out looking like a Goth rocker punk. This wasn't her usual sense of fashion but she made anything work. Her favorite color was pink but she had no trace of it today. Black skirt gray leggings black shirt with a dark maroon rose on it. She had black high tops on and white accessories. She was over doing the look but it was cool.
"Please go change into a bright color! You look awesome but you need some color! You look like you're in a black and white magazine! Go change. Please!" I said politely.
"Ok!"
She came back out wearing a pink shirt. She looked way more like the girly Alice I knew. Her dark brown hair was spiky like always and she had that pixie like grin across her face.
"Thanks!"
She mad her grin grow ever bigger and reached her hand to turn on the radio. One of my favorite songs was playing and I started singing along.
I had always loved singing; it made me feel like I was high up and no one could reach me. Alice had always loved my singing or at least said she did, but she would say I always said I had my head in the clouds and that I wasn't concentrating in my driving but I told her it was fine.
As we pulled in to the parking lot, I could see all the little cliques, jocks, nerds, preps, skaters and the "talented" kids. Alice and I never fit into one group; we had friends from all of them. Fitting into one would just make us sad because we would never be happy with a single set of friends.
We grabbed our backpacks out of the trunk and headed up towards campus.
"Hey Alice! Who's the new girl standing next to you?" one of our best guy friends said.
"What's come over you soccer boy? I'm the same old Bella!"
Before I knew it he was next to me say he was joking and he was sorry if he made me upset. He pulled my hand up gently and placed a soft kiss in it. I couldn't help but blush.
"Emmet! Where did the edict come from?" Alice said trying not to laugh. I was trying not to laugh ether; Emmet was never the polite kind of jock. If there is such!
"My mom sent me to edict school this summer! It was horrible! NO GIRLS!!!! All summer!!!!"
"Wow that must be horrible! But wasn't this edict school of ours soccer camp?" I asked.
"Yea but I had to wear a tie and collared shirt" as he finished his sentence the warning bell rang.
"See ya later soccer boy!" I smiled and turned away.
"Hey wait! Do you guys want to sit with me at lunch? I'll try to control the guys this time!" He said hopefully.
I looked at Alice and looked back at Emmet. "I don't think so. The last time we did the started pulling moves and it was getting creepy!" I laughed remembering the time Jasper pulled a move on Alice; she nearly screamed.
Alice and I found our way to our lockers. They were really close! Only two lockers away! Then we headed our separate ways. I had math first hour! Ewwwww! Who would want that for their first hour?
I sat down in the second row of desks and opened my book. I notice a tap on my shoulder. I turned to see it was one of my cheerleader friends Rosalie Hale.
"Hey what's up Rose?"
"Oh! Hey Bells!" Rose was the typical blond haired blue eyed cheerleader. But she had one exception; she was somewhat nice! She was rich, beautiful and she had like a million guys after her, but no one ever would be able to call her stuck up. She gave to charity and she never bragged about how much money her parents had! Rose had a twin brother who is a jock but no one ever would think he would be her brother.
***********************************************************************
As I made my way to second hour, I found my friends Emmet and Jasper were in it! Yea; The big bulky soccer player and the skinny blond haired soccer player! Jasper was Rose's twin. They looked alike but they were never associated as brother and sister.
In this class we had a seating chart. Jasper sat in front of me and Emmet behind. I was in between the two best friends. Even worse I was in the middle of a war zone of paper balls and spit wads!
"Hey Bells! Do you and Alice want to play soccer after school?" Jasper asked. For the past year I have had a hunch that Jasper had a huge crush on Alice. This proved my theory further.
"Yea! I'll ask Alice!"
The rest of the day went on. Alice was in four of my classes. After school we played two on two with the guys and we kicked major butt. Alice and I made a perfect team!
"We need you girls on our soccer team! We suck!" Emmet said panting. He was sweating bullets. When he took off his shirt, he exposed his perfect carved muscles on his chest. He had a six-pack! I had to admit he was really………..
"How about one on one?" he suggested. "Who wants to verse me?"
"I am so going to kick your butt!" I said laughing as if it was as easy as breathing.
"We'll see about that!"
And we were off! I could out trick him but he was faster than me! We were playing up to ten and we were tied nine to nine. Being Emmet and this being a street game with no official rules; he cheated! He grabbed at my waste and picked me up running with the ball at his feet! He scored and set me down on the ground.
"CHEATER!!!!!!!!!" I screamed at the top of my lungs and dove for his knees. He crashed but then he rolled over on top of me!
"Pinned ya!" he smiled that big Emmet smile.
"Get off me soccer boy!" I said trying to sound mad but I don't think it was working.
"Oh by the way……I WIN!" as he said this that smug little swept across his face, in a strange way it was flirty and adorable. I couldn't help but blush. The next thing I knew he kissed me on the cheek!!!! HE. KISSED. ME. ON. THE. CHEEK!!!!!!!!!!!! Ahhhhh! I was screaming inside!
We said our silent goodbyes and Alice and headed to my car. The ride home was silent. I don't think ether one of us could speak.
When I got home I did my homework trying to think concentrate but I couldn't. so I called Alice. We talked for two hours on the subject; discussing whether it meant something or if it was just a gesture. She fell asleep on the phone and I hung up.
That night I had dreams of Emmet. I thought about that little peck on the cheek that changed so much but changed nothing.
So if you liked the chapter plz review! Thanks soooooo much for reading it!
Peace and love,
