Chapter Ten: Soccer and Showers
BPOV
The rest of the day went by like a blur. I had history and geography and practically slept through them having already studied the topics the teacher was discussing.
Alice had cornered me after lunch and talked me into coming and watching the first soccer match of the season this afternoon. I told her I would ask Charlie so she shoved her phone in my face and ordered me to call him straight away. To my slight disappointment Charlie was ecstatic that I had made friends and was taking an interest in sport. I rolled my eyes and said I would come home late and make dinner but he insisted that he would order pizza and save some for me when I arrived home.
Alice had a huge smirk on her face and squealed when I told her I would come and she told me to meet her and Rose at the grand stand after school.
The bell finally rang and everyone rushed out to get to the soccer match and get good seats. I slowly packed my bag and trailed out the door walking into the crowd of people all headed towards the field.
I looked around and wondered how I was meant to find Alice and Rose in this catastrophe but luckily I didn't have to.
"Bella" shouted a familiar voice from behind me as I spun around to see Alice waving like a madman. I walked over to them bumping into people along the way. When I got closer I realised Alice and Rose took these games very seriously as their boyfriends were on the team.
They were wearing team jerseys with their boyfriends' number on the back that they had altered to be sluttier and show more skin. I looked down and saw they were wearing miniskirts and high heels and wondered how they could even walk in those death traps. Alice smiled at me and told me that they had gotten me a jersey to support the boys too. I looked at the dark blue shirt and saw the number 7 on the back with E-CULLEN written in big bold letters.
"Please tell me this stands for Emmett?" I asked Rose who looked at me with pity in her eyes.
"Sorry Bella but they only Had Edward shirts left, but it doesn't matter as long as you're supporting the team."
"I guess" I sighed and slipped on the shirt as Alice grabbed a rubber band and tied it up at the back to make it look sluttier. I glared at Alice but she just ignored it and looked back at the field as the players came out of the change rooms.
I instantly recognized the mop of messy bronze hair shine in the bright sunlight as a deafening scream came from the stands. Nearly all the girls had stood up and started cheering as Edward walked down the field. He looked up at the stadium and blew a kiss to all his fans like the arrogant prick he was. I rolled my eyes and looked at all the other big burly players that had come out onto the field. Alice and Rose were madly cheering for Emmett and Jasper so I decided to whistle as Jacob came on who saw me and winked at me. I smiled but for some reason, was not especially thrilled.
The game started and Edward and Jacob being strikers passed the ball to each other and dribbled it down the field. Edward made a hand gesture towards Jacob and he sprinted forward into the open. Edward dribbled a little bit more and I could help but admire his skills as he faked a move and swerved around the opposition and passed to Jacob. Jacob stopped the ball and aimed for the goal but suddenly a huge boy from the opposition intercepted and the ball was lobbed into the air. Everything seemed to go in slow motion as the ball flew past a few people but was still airborne. Suddenly Edward appeared out of nowhere and headed the ball into the goal. The goalie lunged for it but missed and the first goal of the game was scored.
Everybody in the team crowded around Edward and lifted him on their shoulders in victory. The umpire blew his whistle that instantly ended their celebrations and intense focus back on the game.
After half an half an hour there was only 10 minutes left of the game. Forks were leading 3-0 and they were sure winners of the match. Most of the players had stopped focusing on the game, but not Edward. Oh no Edward still had his concentration fixed on the game and ignored everything else completely. I admired his admiration towards soccer. In the last few seconds of the match forks gained possession of the ball again and Edward scored another perfect goal.
The horn blew causing everyone to stir as they celebrated forks victory. All the boys on the field cheered and patted Edward on the back as he was man of the match this game (and probably every other game). Edward grinned at them and took off his shirt to wipe the sweat off his face. I swear I nearly fainted at that moment seeing Edwards sweaty, well toned chest sparkle in the sun. Apparently a lot of girls had the same reaction I did as they were all staring that Edward Cullen as the team disappeared into the changing rooms.
I hung around with Alice and Rose as they were waiting for their men to come out of the change rooms. Emmett soon came out closely followed by Jasper. We were still waiting for Edward as he had to drive Alice home and Emmett home. Soon everyone had come out except Edward.
"Bella can you please go inside and get Edward for us?" she asked politely.
"What? You mean go into the men's change room?" I asked astonished.
"Well yes Bella that's the basic idea." She rolled he eyes.
"Ugh you owe me big Alice Cullen" I sneered.
"Sure sure" she giggled turning to kiss Jasper.
I took a deep breath and walked into the change rooms. It smelled putrid like sweat and I had to hold my nose for a while. I walked around trying to find Edward when I bumped into something hard.
There was Edward standing in all his glory. Well almost considering he had a towel wrapped around his waist that hung dangerously low on his hips causing you to stare at the perfect v shape that peeked out making you wonder what was underneath.
"Checking me out Swan, are you?" he smirked.
"Of course not" I blushed and looked down at my feet.
"Does me being half naked bother you then?" he asked in a smug tone.
"Ugh yes" I spat out trying not to stare at his chest again.
He chuckled his beautiful chuckle and then remembered where we were standing.
"What exactly are you doing in the boys change room then? Not that I mind at all." He winked at me.
"Ugh gross Cullen. I'm here because Alice sent me here to check if you were alive or not." I replied.
"Well mission accomplished then" he stated, "now you going to leave or enjoy the view as I change?" he smirked again.
I stormed out of the change rooms and came face to face with Alice. I shot her a dirty and began to open my mouth to scream at her when Jacob walked up to me and kissed my check.
"Ready for our date Bella?" he asked kindly.
Yea of course," I replied giving him a peck on the lips.
He grinned at me and held out his arm. I happily grabbed it and we walked to his Volkswagen hand in hand.
He opened the door for me and slid into the seat glancing one last time towards 'my friends'. Edward was standing there with his mouth open glaring at me and Jake and screamed something that I didn't hear as the roar of the engine filled the air.
Sorry if I got some soccer stuff wrong, not an expert, and if you didn't get any of it just ask (:
I was kind of disappointed that about 70 people read the last chapter but only 3 people reviewed. So let's aim for about 5 reviews this chapter people, is that too much to ask? So come on, I dare you to press the MAKE ME HAPPY BUTTON. (:
