Anna was the only one home when there was a knock at the door. Anna got up from the couch and walked over to the door. She looked out the front window and saw a woman standing on the front porch. It wasn't anyone she knew, but she opened the door anyway.

"Can I help you?" asked Anna leaning on the doorframe.

"Anna?" asked the woman.

"That all depends on who you are," said Anna warily.

"I'm Mindy Collette. I'm Tyra's sister and Billy Riggins' fiancé," she said.

Anna let out a sigh before she stepped back and let this Mindy into the house. Anna closed the door behind her and walked into the kitchen and started a pot of coffee. Mindy sat down on one of the bar stools while Anna leaned against the counters. Anna was the first one to speak.

"Can I ask why you are here?" she asked.

"Well, I wanted to talk about my idiot future brother-in-law," said Mindy.

"He told you?" asked Anna.

"Told me you punched him," said Mindy accepting the coffee cup.

"Hey, he deserved it," said Anna.

"I couldn't agree more," said Mindy.

"How do you know why I punched him?" asked Anna.

"Smash stopped by the house with…" started Mindy.

"Two cases of beer?" asked Anna.

"Yup," said Mindy.

"Would it be to much to ask you to kick Tim in the balls when you get home?" asked Anna. "I was going to do it today, but I was to pissed to be near him anymore."

Mindy let out a small laugh, "I will try. Don't think Billy will let me though."

Anna nodded her agreement. Mindy finished her cup of coffee before she stood up.

"I wanted to come by and tell you that all the Riggins' are as dumb as Tim," said Mindy.

"I know that now," said Anna.

Mindy waved as Anna closed the door. Anna couldn't help but laugh at what just happened. Tim's own sister-in-law had turned on him. Anna shook her head as she locked the door and walked up the stairs to her room to get ready for bed.

Mindy finally pulled into the driveway of the Riggins' house. She turned off the truck and walked up the driveway. Billy was standing at the door with a beer in his hand. He offered it to Mindy but she declined. She walked in and closed the door behind her. Tim was standing at his bedroom door with a slightly hopeful look on his face.

"Where'd you go?" Billy finally asked.

"Anna's house," said Mindy sitting on a barstool.

Tim's look became a little more hopeful, thinking Mindy convinced Anna to give him a second chance. Mindy saw the looks change on Tim's face. She hated what she was going to say next, but she knew he had to know the truth. Tim was the one to ask her the dreaded question.

"What did she say?" he asked.

Mindy took a deep breath before she let it out, "She actually told me to do something, but I'm not going to."

"Do it! Whatever it is! Do it!" said Tim.

Mindy stood up and walked over to where Tim was standing. Tim subconsciously braced himself for whatever Mindy was going to do. But all the bracing didn't' help him one bit. Mindy pulled back her leg and kick Tim in his crotch. Tim groaned and grabbed himself as he stumbled back into his room. Billy tried to suppress his laughter, but was failing miserably. Mindy walked into the kitchen and grabbed ice out of the fridge and wrapped it up in a towel before she took it to Tim. Tim nodded his head in thanks as he placed it on his crotch. Mindy closed the door to his room before she walked back over to Billy and grabbed the beer from him before she sat down on the couch.

Anna woke up the next morning to the phone ringing. She laid in bed and waited for someone else to answer it. After a few more rings it stopped then there was a shout from Aunt Cara for Anna to answer the phone. Anna reached over to the cordless on her bedside table and turned it on before putting it to her ear.

"Yeah?" said Anna as she heard the other phone hang up.

"Anna?" asked a woman.

"Yeah," replied Anna sitting up in bed.

"Do you have a fax machine?" asked the woman.

"Why?" asked Anna. "Who is this?"

"Crystal, from UT Knoxville. You called yesterday about emancipation papers," she said.

"Oh. Yeah. I got one," said Anna.

Anna got up and walked over to the fax machine and gave Crystal the number and waited. Soon a paper was coming through. She looked it over and made sure everything had been filled out. Crystal told her the original copy was coming in the mail and should be there within a few days. Anna hung up the phone and folded the paper and put it in her bag. She walked over to her chest of drawers and pulled clothes out for school before jumping in the shower.

Anna was only at the school half the day before she went over to the attorney's office. She gave him the paper that was faxed to her that morning and said that the original was on its way. He said that the fax copy was fine. After an hour at the office Anna finally emerge completely emancipated. She walked over to her car and got in. She drove over to the bank about her moving her money into a different account and buying a house.

Saturday finally rolled around. Anna was up at seven in the morning and had showered and was in a pair of blue jeans and a nice shirt. She pulled on a pair of flats before she walked out of the house to meet Amy at the first house. The house was quiet as she walked down the stairs. She knew that Mark, Kyle and Aunt Cara were college hopping this weekend. Devon was more than likely still at his girlfriend's house, having said he might stay the night, and Skyler and Paul were at football practice.

Tim walked into the locker room a four in the afternoon and started pulling his pads off. He tossed them in his locker and grabbed a towel and headed over the showers. He was one of the last people off the field and one of the last people in the locker room. He turned on the water and stood under it. The warm water was soothing his aching muscles. He rolled shi shoulders to help work out the kinks. He finally finished his shower and got dressed. He grabbed everything and was heading towards the door when Coach Taylor stopped him.

"Tim, come here a minute, son," said Coach.

Tim obliged and walked into the coach's office. Coach Taylor closed the door behind Tim before he sat down at his desk. Tim had collapsed on to the couch, his bag on the floor next to him. Coach took a breath and folded his hands before he said anything.

"What's going on Tim?" asked Coach.

"Don't know what you're talking about," said Tim.

"You are starting to act like you did a few months back. You're unfocused," said Coach. "Something going on with you and Anna?"

"Nope," said Tim.

"Then what is the problem?" asked Coach.

Tim chuckled slightly before he answered, "That is the problem. She hates me."

Coached sighed, "Why does she hate you?"

"I might have told Smash and Street about us…one night at might house," said Tim.

"You told Smash and Jason that you slept with Anna, right?" asked Coach.

"Yeah. But I told them everything, and I mean everything," said Tim.

Coach shook his head as he listened to one of his captain's say he made a complete fool of himself.

"Is there more?" asked Coach.

"Only that I did it on the school chat…and she saw it…" said Tim.

Coach let out an exasperated sigh as he leaned back in his chair and put a hand over his face, "Have you tried talking to her?"

"She punched me the first time I got close to her," said Tim.

"I will talk to her on Monday and have Principal Taylor talk to her as well. Right now I need you to focus on next Friday! Got it!" said Coach Taylor.

"Yes, sir," said Tim.

Tim stood up from the couch and grabbed his bag and walked out of the office and across the parking lot to his truck.
