Into You
Disclaimer: I don't own any of the Twilight characters or anything Twilight related.
Hello guys, it's FireRed21 again! It's been awhile hasn't it. Sorry about that but I finally got the new story ready for you all to read. This is my first Bella and Edward all human story. I have written some all-human stories before, but they were just one-shots. Anyway, this is one of those one of them is famous and the other one is a regular person kind that I suppose you read that a lot. Well I assure you that mine is completely different and, hopefully, the best one. I'm sure you'll like it so enjoy!
Edward Cullen is a regular guy with a regular life with a future to look forward to, who is also a huge fan of the famous singer and actress Bella Swan. Or is it more than just being a fan.
Chapter 1 – The Big Game
Got everyone watchin' us, so baby, let's keep it secret
A little bit scandalous, but baby, don't let them see it
A little less conversation and a little more touch my body
'Cause I'm so into you, into you, into you, oh yeah
~ Ariana Grande
Edward's POV
"Cellular respiration is a set of metabolic reactions and processes that take place in the cells of organisms to convert biochemical energy from nutrients into adenosine triphosphate, and then release waste products. The reactions involved in respiration are catabolic reactions, which break large molecules into smaller ones, releasing energy in the process, as weak so-called "high-energy" bonds are replaced by stronger bonds in the products. Respiration is one of the keyways a cell releases chemical energy to fuel cellular activity. Cellular respiration is considered an exothermic redox reaction which releases heat. The overall reaction occurs in a series of biochemical steps, most of which are..." Mr. Banner drones on facing the board where the projector is showing slideshows of his lectures.
I cover up a large yawn with my hand as I lazily scribble down the notes from the teacher's lecture. Not all of it, just some that I might have trouble remembering later on, despite having a good photographic memory. I'm not the only one in class who's bored as fuck from Mr. Banner's lecture. I don't have to see the few seats behind me of students to know they're dozing off while the students in front were trying their best to focus, without falling asleep.
Honestly, biology isn't one of my favorite subjects in school, despite how much knowledge I know of it. Then again, it could be because of how our teacher has made this subject as dull as possible. Didn't we go over some of these topics back in freshmen year in Honors Biology? I guess Mr. Banner doesn't give a fuck or he is at that age to not remember things. I wonder if he knows if he's dead. Highly unlikely since he's here in the flesh but who knows. But despite that I'm not enjoying this class of AP Biology because of him, I needed this class to get college credit because the sooner I graduate from college, the less money I have to spend on my tuition of my education.
And the sooner I get to reaching my dreams.
My name is Edward Cullen, and I'm an eighteen-year-old senior at Forks High School, home of the Titans. I live in the smallest, the cloudiest city in Washington. It is also known to be the wettest and possibly the dullest city in existence. Despite the weather, I love the city. It's been my home since I was born. It's where my parents met in college when they were young.
My father Carlisle is a well-known doctor at Forks Hospital. Not just well known, but he's the best doctor. A brilliant doctor. A brilliant doctor who could probably work in any hospital in the world. He make ten times the salary he gets here. Forks is lucky to have him. He's an asset to the community. It's no wonder he gains many admirers from the nurses there, apart from his good looks in his late forties. From what I hear, the nurses cannot concentrate on their work while he is around. Even though they know he is married, it doesn't mean they can't stop ogling at him like he's a piece of meat. But they know better than to get in the way of my mother.
My mother Esme is an interior designer at Interior Design & Home Décor, the biggest designing company in the state. My mother is very artistic and has a great mind when it comes to designing rooms and buildings. She always has great ideas that wows her company and her ideas become better and better which each new one she comes up with. She doesn't just do it for her job, she does it outside too. She does some of it at home which I guess you could say I'm living in a luxurious life. Apart from designing, she loves to take photos which is what inspires her for creativity. She has the beauty and the brains.
My parents met when they were in their first year of college at the University of Washington. They were at a library one day and my mom had a stack of books about… yay high, and she bumped into my dad causing her books to fall down. She apologizes to him numerous times while my dad helps picking up her books, not once dropping his smile. I guess you can say that the rest is history; they fell in love, they got married after college and soon our family happened just as my father completed his residency.
You can say that my life is perfect… in its own way.
Mr. Banner pressed the button on his remote and the next slide appears. "And here is a simplified reaction of aerobic respiration," He says, showing the formula. There was just silence as I try to understand what the hell do any of those formulas mean. Did we even gotten there yet? Ah fuck it, I just don't have the brains for this subject like my father. Thankfully, I have my ways to entertain myself.
I turned to my right to see my partner and best friend Demetri, his head resting on his arms snoring softly. The sight of it causes me to smirk as I slowly inserted the eraser end of my pencil in his ear and twist it back and forth very fast.
"FUCK!" He hissed as he was jolted awake as I was stifling a laugh. Demetri looked to be sure no one, specifically the teacher didn't hear him and turned to me with an annoyed glare giving me a punch to the shoulder. "God dammit Edward, you interrupted the dream I had where I was in the spa; Alexandra Daddario was about to take her top off!" He complained as I chuckled.
"You might not wanna mentioned that to, oh I don't know, your girlfriend." I teased.
"Heidi and I aren't exclusive." Demetri scoffed. I raised an eyebrow in an "Oh really?" knowing that it's been since junior year that the two have been dating and everyone knows that. "Not to Alexandra." He whispered causing me to chuckle as I shook my head. There are times I don't understand how he managed one of the most beautiful girls in school to go out with him despite his days as a player before.
"Didn't you just take a nap in first period?" I asked.
"That was my sleep-in nap. This is my pre-nap before the game. It's my tradition, you know that." Demetri said.
"Well it's normal than Paul's tradition of taking a shit and then weighs himself for how much ounces he lost." I chuckled.
"Yeah, that, I didn't need to see every time we go into the locker room." Demetri shuddered just as the bell rang. "Oh thank god!"
Thank god indeed. I thought as we all gathered our things and exited the classroom just as our teacher reminded us about our homework due next week.
"I don't get how you ended up in AP biology when you hardly do the work or put in the effort in class." I said as we were walking down the hallways together.
"Hey, it's not my fault that my dad goes on and on about his work and comments things in biology terms and all of that knowledge is soaked into my brain." Demetri said giving his head a whack. "At least I don't have to read a book to do the work." He added.
"I kill to have your brain. But then again, I'm not even sure that's your brain I'd be using." I smirked causing Demetri to playfully get me in an arm choke shoving us both against the lockers as we playfully fight each other.
"There they go again." Demetri and I stopped and turned when we heard her voice and saw Angela and Ben coming up to us hand in hand.
"You would think by now those two would grow out of their immaturity, but I guess not." Ben said chuckling as he shakes his head.
"Boys will be boys, or in their cases, boys will be boys in big person bodies." Angela giggled causing both me and Demetri to stick our tongues at her like five-year-old boys.
"Ooh, are we making fun of Demetri again? What is it this time?" Jane asked looking all excited, her bag swinging around on her shoulder, as she and her brother Alec joins us.
"Demetri's brain." I answered with a snicker earning a shove by Demetri.
"Let me guess, the aliens came asking you to donate your brain and then they replaced it with their pea-sized version of yours." Jane said as she played along with a smirk on her face as all of us except Demetri laughs at the joke.
"Well if he needs his hands for whatever it is he's doing, then his brain should probably be in on it too." Alec said earning more laughter from us.
"Maybe that's what he gets for never having his mouth closed, otherwise his brain would fall out for having his mind open." Angela giggled as we all laughed harder.
"At least he has that, and his dick." Ben sniggered earning another round of laughter.
"Okay, I know what I'm gonna do after high school." Demetri said, frowning the whole time of our laughter.
"And what's that?" I asked in amusement.
"Find new friends!" Demetri announced as the rest of us continues to laugh enjoying the mockery that is Demetri.
"Everyone said I could do better." Heidi said when she met up with us only to stop and see us with a look that says she regretted something. With her are Seth and Jessica.
"Well you should've known what you gotten yourself into." Seth chuckled with one hand in his pocket and the other hand on the strap of his backpack he is carrying on him.
"I did?" Heidi asked in confusion.
"Of course; we warned you." Jessica smirked causing Heidi to give her an annoyed glare before her faces softens when Demetri came over to her and gave her a kiss.
"Shouldn't you start making new friends?" I asked Demetri with a smirk.
"I got some feelers out." Demetri said with a shrug wrapping his arm around Heidi causing me to chuckle as I shake my head as we all head to the cafeteria together.
Alec and Jane Volturi are fraternal twins; Alec is actually two minutes older than Jane. (A lot can happen in two minutes.) Their father, Aro, is the principal of this school who is a good friend of my dad when they were in college and their mother Sulpicia is the history teacher. Alec and Jane are total opposites in personalities. Alec is the calm, smart and calculative and more… sane. Whereas Jane is the energetic, short tempered, and intimidating for someone so tiny. None of the less, the two love each other and are both good people… in their own twin way.
Angela Weber is one of the honor students of the school and the tallest girl in class nearly meeting my height. She is the daughter of the pastor and her mother is a stay-at-home mom to raise her twin sons who proves to be a handful of six-year-olds. Both she and Angela adore them though. Angela is one of the nicest people in school even though she is shy sometimes, but that doesn't mean she can't have a potty mouth. She is also an avid photographer.
Ben Cheney is Angela's boyfriend. His father works at UPS as the delivery man and his mother's a landscaper. Ben and Angela started dating since the beginning of high school even though he's like an inch or two shorter than her. Those two developed feelings for one another for as long as we can remember but both are too shy to admit it, which was what prompted us to devise a scheme to get those two together, and it worked. Ben is also a bit of a nerd that loves graphic novels and movies with great special effects.
Jessica Stanley is the girl with a mouth that's ready to let out everything she picks up on the latest gossip. Anything she hears, she digs on information and later tells us what she discovers but never spreads it out unless it's that big. She is such a chatterbox, but we all tolerate with her because she's very loyal to us and not once she would abandon us for another group of students such as the popular girls even though she envies their beauty and lifestyle, but she still sticks with us.
Seth Clearwater is a guy who lives in the cul-de-sac with his mother Sue and older sister Leah. Sue works at the same hospital my dad works at as a nurse. Leah is a police lieutenant where she is a badass when it comes to chasing down any rule breakers. Half of the cells in the station in Seattle where they lock up all the criminals is full because of her. Seth's father Harry died of a heart attack when he was only ten. It was a lot for Seth to take in losing his father, especially that he has to be the man of the house. Even though it was hard for him, Seth never lost the kind, cheerful, optimistic happy personality.
Heidi Valentina is the school's most beautiful girl on campus. Even if she were to wear rags, boys would still drool over her. She's what you call, irresistible because she's impossible to look away from her once you saw her. Heidi also has a good sense of fashion. Heidi had a hard mistreated life when she was a kid. Her mother passed away after giving birth. Her death led Heidi's father down the road where he kept drinking, losing his job and being abusive towards Heidi, blaming her for her mother's death, which was not at all true. The action led to Heidi being taken by child services while her father was arrested and soon she was adopted by a woman named Hilda who owns a boutique dress shop living with her and two other sisters. Since then, Heidi's life went from a dark world to something bright.
Demetri Tracker, Heidi's boyfriend, is what you call the joker of our group where he claims to be charming when it comes to girls since he's the "Casanova of Life." Demetri was an orphaned since he was a kid. He doesn't remember his parents and there were no records of his family to track down. He was soon adopted by Amun, who is a colleague of my father. He is a gynecologist and is pretty much wealthy. His wife Kebi is a health care employee and later on, she and her husband have two kids of their own Benjamin and Tia making Demetri an older brother to look after them. Just like Heidi, Demetri is grateful to being brought in by a good family.
All of them have been my friends from the very beginning. Alec, Jane and I knew each other the longest since we were in diapers. Angela and Ben came in since kindergarten around the same time we met Demetri after he saved me in an animal pen at the petting zoo which is why he and I are close in our own way like brothers. Seth came along when his family moved in after his father died. Jessica joined us when she moved from Texas in the sixth grade and Heidi later joined us halfway of sophomore year when she transferred. We are all very close. We were always there for one another. I considered these people like my second family. I wouldn't trade them for anything in the world and I hope our friendship last forever.
We arrived at the crowded cafeteria where we grabbed our lunch and found an available table for us to sit as we talk about another random subject moving on from Demetri's brain on the latest "block buster movie" that came out.
"That's impossible." Seth said.
"It is possible. You've got to accept the idea." Ben said.
"But everyone thought that movie was great." Seth complained.
"It's ridiculous, yeah? Especially at the end when the villain says he's found enlightenment. Poof, a police helicopter arrives, and he fires a missile into their faces." Ben pointed out.
"Well yeah… but it's really good." Seth said.
"It sucks." I joined in.
"We hate it." Alec said.
"Worst movie of the century!" Demetri stated as he tossed a grape into his mouth.
"Remind me again why we hang out with these boys?" Heidi asked the girls.
"Because apparently, they can't function without us." Jane answered with a smirk.
"We're the social glue that holds these knuckle heads together." Angela said causing her, Jane and Jessica to giggle.
"And where would you girls be without us?" I asked with a tease.
"We would be in L.A. taking part time jobs as waitresses, become award winning actresses while being married to multi-billionaires as their trophy wives." Jessica smiled.
"That would be us!" Demetri sang.
"Not unless you don't make it in the NFL!" Jane sang along.
"Uh, have you seen us play?" Alec asked pointing at me and the guys like it was that obvious as I gave the girls the "Uh, hello" look.
"You will see the future Hall of Famers at the NFL one day!" Seth announced.
The guys and I are on the football team for this school and the way everyone has seen us played, as Seth stated, we will be future Hall of Famers in the NFL one day because our team is one of the best in the school district since entering our freshmen year.
Seth, number 56, plays middle linebacker and leads the defense of our team. He prepares it the right way; he's not only strong but fast and smart too. He can do anything; catch the ball well. Seth is always in the backfield making the big plays and he's just a big play magnet. He knows the plays the other team runs. How Seth does it is a mystery to everyone because half the time Seth can read out the formation the other team is about to make on their offensive play and Seth can identify it and letting others knows what's gonna happen while getting the chance to sack the quarterback. He comes out of nowhere like when as soon as you caught the ball, Seth is already there in a split second and tackles you. He's not even afraid to take on bigger opponents such as the tight ends. Seth has led this district in tackles and sacks. His performance is what everyone calls him Beast Boy, a reference to the character in Teen Titans, due to his youthful appearance but fools everyone with his playmaking and strengths.
The way Seth plays has made the defense perform well has made this team ranked as the top defense involving interceptions, scoring defense and allowing the fewest points scored. The school has named our defense The Pack in reference of most players' size and playing like wolves due to their teamwork and the fact of their hard hitting on the field from their unbelievable strengths.
Ben, number 21, is our running back where he is the fastest member of our team. All those years running from bullies as a kid really paid off. If you want to be safe and run the ball, Ben's your guy. His running style is unique. He runs very strong. He's got good strong contact balance. His ability to stop, start and his latterly ability to run away from enemies is amazing. He's fast and explosive. If you don't understand how Ben runs when he holds the ball, then I guess you're at a disadvantage. Ben has led the district in rushing yards and scores more rushing touchdowns than three of the running backs in one team combined and also has more rushing yards from scrimmage. His nickname is The Train for how fast he runs and how he runs the field causes the crowd to go wild as if letting everyone know the train is coming hence the name.
Demetri, number 11, is the wide receiver and the number one target when it comes to throwing him the ball. Demetri is one talented receiver when it comes to running routes as well as making big plays. He doesn't just catch the ball well making little drops, he catches them in ways you can never imagine. He's what people call him the next OBJ due to his one-handed catch freshmen year when he stepped in for the last starting wide receiver. Demetri is also challenging to the secondary. Even with two defenders, Demetri can still catch the ball when he jumps in the air for it and he can also take down any defenders that gets in his way when he runs down the field. That's why he's called by everyone of the name Brave Bird.
Alec, number 81, is the tight end. He's not just use for assisting the offensive line to block; he's aggressive. The way he goes up and gets the ball, he attacks everything. How Alec runs his routes is totally off kilter like he's not doing typical routes like some wide receivers kind of have that little shake and bake and then break you off for a slant and he's doing that all up the field on slants on outs, on seven cuts. He's the best player to give the ball to at the end zone in tight situations when we're close to the goal line. When he catches a touchdown, Alec just gets better with the next play which is why he is nicknamed Volturious as he is victorious in the end zone.
As for me, well you can all take a guess that I'm the quarterback for this team with the jersey number 17. I've been playing that position since I was a kid. Not to brag but I have one hell of an arm to throw. Unlike most star quarterbacks, I'm not one of those arrogant, self centered, sore winners who are full of themselves thinking he's a big deal. I don't sulk for losing a game and I don't rub it in on someone's face whenever I win. I'm a good sport when it comes to football because its more than just a game or about winning, it's about the passion you give into the game and the bond you have with your teammates. I know how to make the plays and how to use a play; those are totally different. That's what it takes to be a quarterback. Guess you could call me a tactician at how I come up with plays and what to do two or three steps ahead of my opponents when a play goes wrong. You want to know my nickname I was given? Slayward. It became a trademark due to how I dominated the competition on the field leading the offense.
Because of how I lead the offense, and with the assistance of Ben, Demetri and Alec of their skills and abilities, we've been called The Elite Four by our school in reference to the Pokémon League where our school is one of the top ranked offense in the district. We're just that unstoppable.
"If you guys don't become draft busts, then we'll look into that." Jane smirked as one of the songs Me, Myself & I by G-Eazy ended and started off with a new song that was set next.
"Oh my gosh, I love this song!" Jessica shouted as Let Loose came on.
"Yeah we can tell by your shouting." Demetri said sarcastically as he wiggle his finger in his ear from Jessica's yelling.
"Shut up! Bella rocks with this song!" Jessica said as she and Jane sang along while the guys and I shook our heads, but smiled.
Bella Swan is an actress and singer who is, well, famous. You might have heard her name because she is the daughter of the famous power couple Charlie and Renee Swan.
Charlie actually grew up in Forks before becoming an actor and he was best known for his role as Hunter Stone in the hit TV action/crime fighting show Jump Force where he played the lead character as a police officer who enrolled at the force at only sixteen after the lost of his family where he shows tremendous skills and intelligence and quickly rose the ranks becoming the chief of police as he lead a group of misfits officers from different backgrounds and became an unstoppable force together. Charlie's role in Jump Force was well recognized where he later on landed roles in other TV shows and blockbuster movies where he won many accolades for his work, including three Golden Globe Awards and many nominations such as the Academy awards.
All of his work, along with being a film producer which he does most of his career now, has earned Charlie over 10.1 billion dollars worldwide making him one of the highest-grossing box-office stars of all time. Many people, including myself, compares him to Tom Cruise but Charlie has been more considered an icon which is why he's one of my favorite actors of all time. Even my mom loves him, a lot. Even though she's married to my dad, she still drools over Charlie whenever she sees photos of him or on screen since he has won Sexist Men Alive in People's magazine four times. That, I wish don't want to see… or even think about it.
As for Bella's mother, Renee Higginbotham was born in Downey, California. She stared in a few commercials and made some guest appearances of TV shows before landing her role at age eighteen in the comedy TV show The Immense Boom Logistic where she played as Daisy who became a struggling actress while living next door and hanging out with nerds. Renee soon landed big roles in movies and also theaters where she won numerous Emmy Awards and an Oscar. Her biggest success was her role as the titular character Maleficent. All of her work as an actress as well as being a model has made her Hollywood's highest-paid actress multiple times. Despite being so famous and loved by her loyal fans, I don't exactly like Renee personally. Her character outside of her work is… what's the nicest way to describe her? Let's just say she's a bit of a diva. I don't know why many girls look up to her as a role model. I don't even know what Charlie even sees in her. But then again, if he hadn't married Renee, they wouldn't have Bella, and she is loved by everyone just as the people love Charlie and Renee. If not, maybe more.
Bella stars in one of the hit comedy-drama TV show Rainbow Garden. She and a few other stars portrayed as students from different backgrounds as they entered high school where they met in detention on the first day. It was since that day, the group of students became the surprisingly group of best friends as they go through their daily lives in school and outside as well. The show has been praised not just for the show's performance and storyline but from the actors and actresses for their portrayal in the show. It's high ratings is what kept the show going for four seasons with ninety-six episodes adding one more season coming up next year. It was that show that inspires my friends and I on our friendship.
There's Emmett McCarty; the big muscular fellow who plays Colton Parker. He's the athlete of the group who started off as the typical jock. He comes from a family of athletes where his older brother and sister are star athletes in college, but Colton gets pressured by his father to be the best and long story short, he goes too far pelting footballs at his son causing a falling out in his family and later showing Colton to see what he truly wants for his future.
Rosalie Hale, the extremely beautiful blonde girl plays the attractive cheerleader Lilly Bellamy. Lilly has a younger sister and an older brother who left the family after they disapproved of his girlfriend who's not in their status; rich and successful. She's shown to be a bit shallow and self centered at first but has grown to see more out into the world when she opened her eyes more and has become more respectful on others on their appearance.
Jacob Black plays Dominic Steele who, like Demetri, is the joker of the group. He tends to slack around a lot and makes jokes. Dominic lives with his father who lost his wife when he was a kid but the two always have a close relationship. Dominic soon slowly starts taking things seriously such as his schoolwork when he dated Emmett's character's sister though it caused a temporarily riff between two boys until Colton accepts their relationship.
Alice Brandon plays Kylie Madison, the gifted student. Her siblings are all gifted in certain areas, sports, academics and other areas in school. Kylie is gifted on her academics, although she gets pressured a lot to be top student and go to an Ivy League school after graduation. During the fourth season, Alice's character started dating Emmett's character which displeases her parents as they think dating is a distraction to her schoolwork, but Kylie put her foot down that she doesn't what to fulfill their expectation and that she wanted to follow her own path. Her parents later on accepted her decision and also her life choices.
Jasper Whitlock plays the heartthrob Nathan Carr. He's the pretty boy in the group where girls swoon over him and makes boys jealous. He and his sister were adopted when they were kids after their father proved to be irresponsible to raise them himself after their mother died since he was an alcoholic. Though Nathan shows to be a kind and caring person, he does tend to have a temper problem when it comes to the people he cares about gets bullied or hurt and he shows to have strengths that even surpasses Emmett's character.
Victoria Sutherland plays Genevieve Jennings. She was originally the antagonist of the series in the first two seasons. Victoria's character was the reason why the stars ended up in detention in the first place in the very first episode and has since then tormented them every time they see each other. However, during midway through the second season, we find out how Genevieve's father was abusive to her that nearly led to rape had not the others had come and stopped her father and landing him in jail. Genevieve was soon viewed differently from the characters and fans after hearing more of her story than we thought and soon she was accepted as a member of their group and good friend. She and Jasper's character dated later after that. Plus there was news that Victoria got along with the cast so well outside of the show that the producers find it hard to imagine her acting as the tormentor to the group, so they decided to give Victoria a better role in the show and made her to a protagonist.
And last, there was Bella's character. She plays the amazing Evelyn Walker. She is the shy bookworm of the group who is usually quiet but is very loyal to her friends. She lives with her mother since she was a child. Evelyn's father committed suicide when she was a toddler and the reason why was revealed that he was handling a tough time since the divorced and later discovering his sexuality resulting to end his life. The news was brought after Evelyn revealed to her mother that she's bisexual and is in a relationship with Rosalie's character to which her mother accepts.
Bella's character has been viewed by many as a female icon due to how Evelyn grew up throughout the series starting out as a quiet insecure wallflower and started letting herself out of her comfort zone to be more confident, being titled "Shy Shell Shine" (try saying that five times fast). As for Bella herself, her performance has made her a teen idol to fans around the world. She became even more famous when she announced to pursue a career in music due to Evelyn showing her voice to the world. Her first single Let Loose featuring R&B artist Bryson Tiller became a major hit, hitting the Billboard Hot 100 at number one in just the first week becoming the youngest female artist to have a song debut at number one as it stayed there for six weeks. She followed that up with another single Moon Walk featuring DJs Zedd and Martin Garrix not only having another song to debut at number one, but also at the Billboard Dance and EDM charts before releasing her debut album Shine spending four weeks at number one since its debut. She is currently on her first tour to promote her album and has already sold-out numerous concerts in L.A., New York, Portland, Phoenix, Canada, Miami and Seattle which is her last concert of the tour and my friends and I will be going there this Saturday.
Call me weird for how I know so much about Bell Swan. She is my favorite actress of all time. She's kind, beautiful, talented, has an amazing voice, she's the same age as me and my friends, she loves to read and shows that she's not like other celebrities who lets fame and fortune go into their heads turning to drugs and such. No, she's humble and doesn't lose her roots of who she is. She's her own person and not being labeled as Charlie and Renee's daughter. So I may have a bit of a crush on her, sue me. A guy could dream to be the one to date Bella. I'm surprised that someone like Bella is single. Emmett and Rosalie are together, so are Jasper and Alice despite that their characters aren't in the show. Victoria came out as the one as bisexual while Jacob is dating a rising model Lizzie Meyers whose father, Alec Meyers, is one of Charlie's co-stars and good friends from Jump Force. Although, many of Jacob's fan were a bit… critical, (that's the nicest word I can come up with) about Jacob's relationship with her; trolling her online like she's not even pretty, she's using him for his fame or mostly that he should be dating Bella due to their chemistry from their lead roles in their latest movie together that came out last spring, To All The Boys I Loved Before. However, Bella and Jacob's relationship outside is that they are just friends and see nothing more than brother and sister as says so on their Instagram posts they share of each other. That didn't stop the fans however as they continue to bully Lizzie online with more bullshit rumors and such until Jacob had enough and threatened to all his fans that if they don't stop, he would delete all his social media accounts and possibly quit acting. That shut their mouths. They weren't happy about it, but they accepted it. … For now.
Anyway, I love Bella and I am super excited for her concert. If I win this game tonight, then this concert will be such an award.
"Save the voices for the game and the concert." Angela said to them.
"This is a warmup before the night of our life so we need all the practice we can get." Jane said.
"You two have been practicing before they announced the news about the concert." Heidi said.
"Oh let them do it. At least after the concert, Jane can finally stop talking about it when she loses her voice." Alec said with a snicker earning a smack in the head by his sister.
"That would be nice to not hear her yelling at us all the time." Demetri muttered causing him, the guys and I to snigger.
"HEY!" Jane yelled causing us to flinch in fear as she gave us all the intimidating death glare. Fuck, how can someone so tiny be so scary?
"And if my memory recalls, you boys are just as excited about Bella's concert as we are." Jessica said to us.
"We're not fan crazy about her as you two." I said rolling my eyes.
"Who has a big poster of Bella in his room?" Jessica smirked at me.
"That's different!" I defended turning a bit red. "There's only one poster on the wall and that's it!"
"What about that cardboard cut off of her you keep under your bed?" Jane asked with that same smirk as Jessica causing me to be even more red.
"God dammit! Quit snooping in my room!" I said in annoyance as the girls giggled.
"Can I borrow her? OW!" Demetri cried from earning a smack in the head from Heidi along with a dirty glare from her.
"Fuck no!" I said shoving him off his seat. He's got his girl, I have mine. … Well you know what I mean. Demetri got up quickly and got behind my seat where he playfully wraps his arm around my neck in a playful choke.
"Of course you can't have her, and neither will you, Cullen." Demetri and I stopped what we were doing as we all turned to see him there along with his friends.
"You two along with the dweeb and daddy's boy over there aren't even in Bella's league." Mike declared as his friends, or should we say cronies, Tyler Crowley and Austin Marks nodded their heads in agreement.
"Oh, and you are?" Demetri asked Mike in a "Oh really?" tone.
"Well let's see; she's hot, smart, famous and deserves to be someone who is also hot, smart and famous like hmm, oh yeah, me!" Mike boasted.
"Well, let us see here," Jessica said pretending to be thinking. "I don't actually see you as "hot" from what I hear from all the other girls. Otherwise, you and I would've been together by now. Not that I would date you, no offense." She said to Mike like it was no big deal.
"Pff, they're just hiding their true feelings for me." Mike scoffed as he flexed one of his muscles.
"Well you may be street smart, but you're not at all academically smart considering you're a straight C average student whereas Bella is a straight A student when being home schooled." Ben said causing most of us to snigger hearing about Mike's grade point average.
"C plus!" Mike clarified.
"And also, you would be famous if you were to be invited to the combine in order to get into the NFL, in order of you to get famous, but in order to do that, you would need to be recognized from college coaches to give you recommendations." I said to Mike as I stood up from my seat and faced him.
"I am good in case you hadn't noticed, Cullen!" Mike snapped.
"Who ended up being my backup since freshmen year?" I smirked causing Mike to glare at me.
Mike Newton is one of those popular students at our school. His parents own a sporting goods store. To himself, Mike thinks he's all that; bragging that he's good looking, telling stories about himself that most aren't even that true, a total ladies man he claims to be and also believing everything is all about him, but to me and my friends, he's nothing but an arrogant, obnoxious prick. Mike puts anyone down, torments the weak, won't keep his mouth shut worst than Jessica and goes after any beautiful girl with a pussy. Between me and my friends, we all know how creepy and perverted Mike is to women. He almost had a thing for my mom once and I do NOT want to explain it to you all.
Anyway, Mike has been pretty much the antagonist in my life just as the new antagonist in Rainbow Garden has been in the show. He always gives me a hard time; he dislikes me that much. Frankly, I'm no fan of him either, but there are times I tend to be a smart mouth to him, so he doesn't really bother me. There are times I would rub things in his face such as the fact that I ended up being the starting quarterback instead of Mike.
You see, before the season started our freshmen year, I had a bit of an injury over the summer where I broke my thumb which is where my throwing hand is. So I didn't participate in the first few days of practice even though I attended it. Because of that, I wasn't eligible to participate in our first game and Mike ended up being the starter despite how my skills impressed Coach Clapp. However, Mike's skills are… well, he sucks ass as a quarterback. He keeps making incomplete passes, gets sacked numerous times and causes turnovers and interceptions, most of them ended up being touchdowns. Every time that happens, he would yell at the team as if they were the ones that screwed up. Mike is not really a good teammate to others and doesn't agree with us on how to play; when we need to say for example run the ball at the one-yard line for first down, Mike changed his mind at the last second after the team decided on the play and do things his way which was probably to show off his "skills." After the first half of the game, coach benched Mike and put me in despite my ineligibility and because me, our team made a huge comeback and since then, Mike has been my backup.
Oh, and Mike is also a huge fan of Bella which is apparently his dream to marry her one day. That there is a big fact zero even if he were the last man on earth but as you can see, he is that dense that not all girls are interested in him alike how I received numerous attentions from girls. Not that I dated that many.
"That wouldn't had happened if the team hadn't screwed me up!" Mike growled.
"Of course Newton, blame everyone but yourself. We all saw how terrible you were." Demetri said standing by my side.
"Maybe if the NFL could make a slight change for you, you should be number ninety-nine instead of number one." Alec teased causing him and the others to laugh at Mike's jersey number of number-one as "perfect" to be the best.
"You all watch it! Cullen won't last long for the season until my time will come to show everyone that I am the next Tom Brady!" Mike boasted.
"Well, Tom was selected one ninety-nine in the draft and he turned out great, maybe you will too coming in late." Seth smiled with a look that shows that even he, being all optimistic and friendly, he enjoys taunting Mike.
"Just as long as you prove to everyone that you aren't Mr. Irrelevant." I smirked.
"You fucking watch it Cullen!" Mike snapped as he grabbed the collar of my shirt.
"Hey!" I smirked as Mike glared at me when he let go as Coach Clapp came over. "Newton, you better not be messing up the starting quarterback before the game because I swear to god you will not only get to play at all tonight, but I will put you in long snapper only. Do you understand me?"
"Yes coach." Mike grumbled while still glaring at me as I can read through his facial expression that he was not gonna start before Mike walked away with his friends behind him.
"What am I ever gonna do with you Cullen?" Coach Clapp said shaking his head.
"Get me a letter of recommendation to UW?" I asked playfully even though it's where I wanna go to play football hopefully one day get drafted to the NFL.
Coach just chuckled. "I mean what am I gonna do with you to keep you in one piece if we wanna win the championship this year?" He said as he thumped my back.
"You should actually start Mike and find a middle school football team for him to play against our opponents tonight." Demetri suggested causing us all to laugh, even coach.
"Tempting, but let's focus on this season. I expect to see you all on the field by five. See you there." Coach said and walked away.
"Advantage, Edward number nine hundred and thirty-seven against Mike number two." Ben said holding out two fingers.
"That so should've been featured on Rainbow Garden." Heidi laughed.
"Ooh that would be so cool! Can you imagine us having our own show like Bella and the others?!" Jessica asked excitedly.
"We'd be like the new generation of Rainbow Garden." Jane squealed with the girls. I admit, that would be cool. I could even meet Bella that way.
After lunch ended, school dragged on the rest of the day and everyone was already relieved to have gone through the first week of school. Now only thirty-nine weeks left to go. Apart from hearing students talking about plans for the weekend, they were all hyped for our game tonight against the Port Angeles High School Angels. I know I am, but I'm also a bit nervous. I mean this is my final year playing in high school and I wanna make the best out of it with my team. I hope I do well to get to the next step to be in the NFL.
I said goodbye to my friends, and I hopped into my Volvo I got for my sixteenth birthday. I don't care if people consider it a mom car, I fucking love it! It's fun to drive it and has great features. Plus a good sound system perfect for my music collection; mostly classical and of course Bella's music and other good hits but also music of my own I compose on my piano.
A few minutes later, I parked outside of Forks Elementary School and got out of the car walking up to the gates as I waited. The bell rang and soon, dozens of young kids came pouring out the door to the gates where all the parents and guardians are picking them up. That's when I saw her.
"Edward!" I caught her just in time as the little girl with long hair of bronze color like mine jumped into my arms for a hug.
"Hey Nessie," I smiled before putting her down. "How was school?"
"It was great!" She said jumping up and down. "My class and I had a party for Alison since it's her birthday today, so we had that half of the day in school. We even got to decorate her cupcakes her mom brought as part of arts and crafts!"
"That sounds fun Ness." I said taking her hand as we walked to my car. "I hope you and your friends are ready for the game tonight."
"Yes! I'm so excited I get to cheer you on!" She said excitedly as she got into her back seat.
"You better, because I got a touchdown ready for you." I smiled as I got behind the wheel and looked into the mirror to see her jumping up and down in her seat causing me to chuckle as I started to drive us home.
Renesmee is my little sister who is only six years old soon to be seven next week. We mostly call her Nessie for short since it's kind of a mouthful. She is almost the spitting image of me and a true beauty with a good heart, both she got from our parents. She's an angel to us. I adore Renesmee so much; I love her dearly and I would do anything for her. I play with her whenever she needs someone to play with and always look out for her. That's the one rule I got when it comes to my sister; you make her cry, I will make you pay… fucking big time! Another thing about Renesmee is that she is a cheerleader now part of the Forks junior squad with our school cheerleaders. She states that when she grows up, she wanted to be a cheerleader in the NFL to be with me. Like hell that's gonna happen, I said to myself. I knew exactly how guys are like when it involves cheerleaders, especially football players with those perverted horny thoughts in their minds, and there was no way in hell I was gonna let them get near my sweet innocent little sister that way because another rule about my sister, you break her heart, I break your whole body! I just hope as she gets older she'll find a career that doesn't involve placing horny thoughts into boy's thought.
As I was driving us home, I was playing Bella's CD in my car and Renesmee wasted no time singing along. There was no surprises that she's a huge fan of Bella Swan.
"Come on just let loose, oh, oh, oh, oh," She sang as I smiled just hearing her sing along just as we pulled up in front of our three-story house. Yeah, I know, it's that big. I mean come on, my dad's a doctor and mom's an interior designer so you can get the picture here.
"We're home." I called when we walked inside.
"In the kitchen." My mom called out and came in to see her moving around sorting the food and cleaning stuff up. "How was school for you two?" She asked as we gave her kisses.
"It's the same as usual." I said dropping my bag on the nearest chairs.
"What are you making mommy?" Nessie asked as she climbed up a chair and sat down.
"Just making snacks for the party after the game." Esme said after tossing empty containers of food in the recycle bin.
"You didn't do all of this yourself, did you?" I asked hoping mom wasn't overdoing this for our first game of the night as I reached over a tray for a cupcake. That's when mom playfully slapped my hand away.
"Of course not," Esme said. "My friends were here earlier before they left. And those cupcakes are cooling and are for the party." She added giving me a playful stern look.
"Like one cupcake is the end of the world." I teased playfully bypassed my mother to grab a cupcake, only earning another smack. "OW!" I cried shaking my hand back to me giving it a few blows to cool it off. "Come on, that's my throwing hand!"
"I don't understand you sweetheart. You were well behaved and an adorable child. I have pictures." Esme fussed. Oh please don't show the pictures of me when I was kid. "How did you get like this?"
"Get like what?" We all turned to see my father coming in with a jar of peanut butter in one hand and a piece of celery in the other causing my mother to give him that look that says "Really?" with a hand on her hip as I chuckled. "What?" He asked taking a bite of celery that has peanut butter on it.
"I thought you were working." I said after he finishes his snack.
"I was. I just finished my work earlier than I expected so I got home around noon to give your mom a hand." Carlisle said putting the peanut butter away.
"More like trying to sneak some of the food when he thought no one was looking." Esme said giving my father playful glare.
"I was hungry." He defended.
"You could've asked." Esme said.
"Now where's the fun in that." Carlisle smiled as he wrapped an arm around my mother and give her a kiss causing my mom to soften up due to the "Cullen charm" my dad and I have.
Nessie started giggling. "Mommy and daddy, sitting in a tree, k-i-s-s-i-n-g." She sang causing us to laugh at her silliness.
"Okay enough of this," Esme said getting out of dad's embrace. Though I can tell by her expression, she didn't want to. I have a knack to read people. "We have a lot to do before we leave for the game so let's hop to it. Come on, chop, chop!" She clapped causing me to chuckle as we started to get things ready.
Once we got the food ready and everything was set up, by four thirty, it was time to go for the big night. I was in my black shorts and school sweater when I got into my car with all my football gear and drove to Valley Bay Stadium, our home stadium, while Nessie, all dressed up in her cheerleader uniform was with my parents in my father's Mercedes. We found parking spots and parked next to each other where we soon met up with my friends and their families. The guys and I met up with the team on the field to warm up. It wasn't long before our opponents arrived were doing the same procedure we were doing and soon the whole stadium was filled with students, families and faculties who have come to support their teams and the noise was piling up. Our side of the stadium, we saw our school decked in colors of blue and silver to show their spirit along with posters with our names to cheer us on as the school band were playing while the school cheerleaders and junior squad were getting warmed up. There, I saw my sister there with her friends as they were really excited for this event.
By seven o'clock, half an hour before the game starts, both teams were instructed to be in the locker room so my team and I went in and changed into our uniforms and pads and helmets on. Afterwards, our coach came in the locker room for a last-minute meeting.
"Alright boys, this is our first game of the season and we want to start off this year with a bang!" Coach Clapp started off. "Last year, we were this close to winning the state championship but we're not gonna let that stop us to reach our goal! It's time to show everyone that we didn't make it there as some fluke. Let's show them, and our opponents what we're made of!"
"Yeah, let's give them hell!" Demetri said causing us to get fired up as we were soon banging lockers and throwing things around the locker room until the coach was blowing his whistle to shut us up.
"What did I say about destroying things?" He asked in disbelief. "This is our locker room, I want you doing that to the opponents!"
"Sorry coach." We all said, and chuckled at our shenanigans.
"Okay, here's our starting lineup for tonight so pay attention!" Coach Clapp said and then looked at his clipboard. "On offense starting at quarterback, Edward,"
Well that's not surprising. I thought with a smirk as the team cheered on me, minus Mike and his pals who just sulked.
"Running back, Ben. Wide receivers, Demetri, Garrett and Peter."
Garrett McGovern is actually a freshman who is tall and is perfect for when I need to throw deep balls and Peter Channing is a junior and is known to be super fast once he catches the ball and makes a run for it. Those two along with other wide receivers are what I need incase I can't get to Demetri.
"Tight end, Alec. Left tackle, Max. Left guard, Dwayne. Center, Stefan. Right guard, Brandon. Right tackle, Jason.
"Defense; on the defensive frontline are Paul, Jared, Roy and Donny."
Paul Lahote and Jared Cameron are our pass rushers that dominates the front line. Those two are the dynamic duo when it comes to pressure and can break through the offensive line and sack the quarterback when they can.
"On the outside for linebackers are Rodney and Jayden and at middle is Seth. Cornerbacks are Quil and Tyler and safeties are Sam and Embry."
Sam is the strong safety while Embry is the free safety. Quil is skillful at cornerback taking on receivers to block passes. Him, Sam and Embry are dominant in the secondary preventing our opponents from making big plays. Tyler is good at corner as well, but he preferred to be a receiver even though coaches saw his potential on defense which we all agree on.
"And for special teams; kicker, Colin. Punter, Brady. And long snapper, Jackson." Coach finished off. "Any questions? Good." He said before we could even respond. "Now get out on the field and get ready!"
And with that, we got our helmets on as we all yelled, running out of the locker rooms and out the building ready for the show to being. That's when we hear the music played on the sound systems indicating that it's time.
(A/N: Play NFL Sunday Night theme song introduction.)
"Here in Forks, Washington, always a spectacular night here in Valley Bay Stadium on this chilly evening. As the Forks High School Titans take the field, ready to meet the Port Angeles High School Angels on Friday Night Football!" Chad, our commentator, announces.
From our entrance, one by one, our names were called and each one of us ran through the tunnel of cheerleaders. When I was the last one, I heard my name and that was cue and I received the loudest cheer from the school. The crowd was roaring as the team and I ran out nearly deafened by the screams as we appeared on field. After we made our entrance, the rest of the team went to the sidelines while me, Demetri, Alec, Ben, Seth and Garrett walked towards the middle of the field as captains of the team (Ben, Demetri, Alec and I on offense, Seth on defense and Garrett on special teams) meeting up with the captains of the Angels team and the referees. After we shook hands, the Angels as the visiting team gets to make the call on the coin toss. They won the coin toss and decided to receive the ball first.
Once our team told the refs which way we want the opponents to go, we all head to the sidelines as everyone stood for the National Anthem. After that, we all turned to the big screen near the scoreboard where on the screen, a city was shown until it pans down in the middle of streets where Heidi is seen wearing a dark red dress walking down the empty roads.
"Here's my girl." Demetri said as the Heidi on the big screen starts singing.
(A/N: Now play Oh Sunday Night the 2017 version by Carrie Underwood.)
"Stand up and cheer, stomp your feet, start clapping,
Come on everybody, Friday night is about to happen!
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh"
As song started playing, the team and I joined all the students in the stands and cheerleaders as we all show our spirit to our opponents and did the simple choreography (two stomps and a clap) to the beat so loud that it nearly surrounded the whole stadium.
"America's game, been waiting all day,
Angels and the Titans have come to play.
Chad, Luke, Rachelle, turn it up,
The gang's all here, can't get enough!
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh"
Everyone of us soon took it to the next level as we all did a slide to the left after the first stomp one set and then a slide to the right on the next set, repeating the process while the cheerleaders did it with a spin instead as we all saw Heidi soon joined by me and the guys along with some members of the team dancing to the song.
"We got a battle tonight, winner take all,
Ain't nothing like Friday night football.
It's out of control, descend, let's go.
The clock's winding down, let's rock and roll!"
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
The screen then changed as we saw clips of last year's season with the best plays we made and tribute the graduates from last year making everyone even pumped up some more.
"Stand up and cheer, stomp your feet, start clapping,
Come on everybody Friday night is about to happen.
The hits keep coming and the lights keep flashing.
Come on, come on, get ready for the action!
Oh… Friday night.
Oh… Friday night.
Oh… Friday night.
Friday night!"
(A/N: End song.)
The crowd was roaring even louder when the song ended. A well-done performance by Heidi who's been singing our theme song since last year. She has a voice that is just as good as Bella's. Heidi states that singing is not her career path but more of a hobby. Try telling that to her thousands of followers.
"They have home field advantage over the years as the crowd noise is pulsating. Valley Bay Stadium, home of Forks High School where they are celebrating their 50th anniversary of the school year and what better way to start of their year than their team take on their district rivals. As their star quarterback senior Edward Cullen and the Titans take on the new kid on the block, sophomore Brock Haddon and the Angels on Friday night football. Chad Robinson with Luke Russell and Rachelle Daniels here…"
"Ready for this?" Demetri asked me.
"Let's do this!" I said as we saw both teams already on the field and we started the game with the kickoff going all the way for a touchback. "You know what to do Seth." I said to him.
"Leave it to me, captain!" He said excitedly as he put on his helmet and joined the defense on the field.
And all I can say is that they are doing a good job because just as the Angels were at the fifty-yard line after getting some successful first downs, Brock was second and one when he decided to throw the ball deep down field to his wide receiver where Quil was covering him both near the side when,
"It's intercepted!" Every one of us cheered when Quil jumped up and caught the ball and his feet stayed in bounds before he fell out of it. "Quil Ateara with a pick and man, what a catch that was!"
"Cullen, let's do this!" Coach said to me.
Show time. I thought putting on my helmet as I led the offense to where the ball was placed and gathered everyone around me as I got down on one knee.
"Alright," I said. "We're going Wonderwing," That's my code to my team that we are going off-tackle. "Ben, to the left. Break!" We all line up at the twenty-yard line and I waited until everyone was in formation while the Angels defense were watching us anticipating our move while the crowd was cheering.
I put my mouthpiece in and got in position. "Red 27, ready, set hike!" The ball was snapped right into my hands as my team broke out. I quickly handed the ball to Ben and with help from our offensive line who shifted the defense to the right, Ben stopped and break straight to the left side causing our school to cheer at Ben's explosiveness as he was stopped two yards short on first down.
Ben got up and was pumped when he came back in the huddle.
"Here we go, Charged Shot; Alec, Demetri, get on the sidelines. Be ready. Garrett, go for the Fox Illusion." I said to Garrett who nodded understanding my codes to the plays. "Break!"
And with that, fifty-seven yards later, we were already at the fifteen-yard line on the Angels' territory and the crowd is getting louder.
"Skinny post, right side. Demetri, on three." We broke the huddle and I lined up behind the center as I looked up at the clock seeing that eight minutes already has passed in the first quarter and there was ten seconds left on the play clock. "Blue 27, ready, set hike!" I called as I watched the defense going for blitz just as I caught the ball. Just as one of the defensive players was this close to sack me, I made a break for it and started running around, a trait that surprises many people of my skills as a quarterback.
"And here comes Edward's signature scrambling ability going full throttle to find his target!" Luke announces as I started running, pointing to where I was heading to near the right side of the field until I threw the ball over my left shoulder, not even looking until,
"CAUGHT!" Chad announced causing me to turn my head with a smile as our school erupted in loud cheers when Demetri caught the ball perfectly in his hands before he tip toed out of bounds. "Demetri Tracker with a fifteen-yard touchdown! And Edward Cullen is still lava hot as the Titans strike first! What a way to start this off for the Forks High!"
"Yes!" I yelled as I ran over to Demetri who ran back to the end zone joined by me, Ben and Alec as we all did a handshake that involves hand slapping and then bonking our heads together and wiggling fingers together in the end to celebrate.
The guys and I do a celebration every time one of us gets a touchdown and what we do depends on who scored one. Demetri's involves getting us together where we do all kinds of handshakes to show our bond. Ben's celebration involves anything that has something to do with racing or marathons. Alec's does dancing depending the type of song we know while mine involves reenactments of our favorite scenes such as Star Wars light saber fights and such. That just shows how pumped up we are for this school.
My teammates clapped me on the shoulder as I made my way to coach just as we scored the extra point. I looked at the crowd and saw my parents joined by my friends' family; mom was taking pictures with her camera while dad cheered me on. I looked all the way down on the sidelines to see passed the cheerleaders where my sister is with her squad.
"Go Edward!" Nessie cheered waving her pompoms in the air jumping up and down joined by her friends causing me to smile big. This crowd was going nuts and I couldn't help but smile seeing the amount of people who came, all for us. I sat next to my offensive coordinator and went over some plays for the next possession as the next kickoff began.
Near the end of the quarter was when the Angels got a touchdown and an extra point (almost got picked though by Tyler who stupidly dropped it from something so obvious) so I was back on the field ignoring Mike's complaint why he's not in now for our turn, of the second quarter after Garrett, our return specialist, returned the kickoff at the thirty which was perfect for this play.
"Ready, set hike!" I saw my receivers break out with the ball in my hands, the o-line held off the defense for some time with assistance from Ben. Even with time, I needed the right moment until I started scrambling again with an Angel player coming from my right causing me to stop and turn around going back to throw him off just as another Angel player joined in. Shit! I thought as I continued scrambling to avoid the sack until I found him and went big.
"Four-man rush, now a late blitz. Cullen lobs it off to Garrett – OH MY GOD GARRETT, HE CAUGHT IT!" Chad announces as the crowd erupted when Garrett caught the ball at the Angels' thirty-yard line, almost out of bounds with two secondaries on his tail when he started running. "And there goes McGovern down the sideline! Making Titan play… for the touchdown!"
Our school cheered as Demetri ran over to chest bump with Garrett in the air as I joined in locking arms with Garrett when we swung at each other celebrating on another successful drive even if it was a close call, but you got to admit, that was pretty awesome.
Seth and the defense held the Angels on the next drive to five first downs and at the thirty-one-yard line, Brock threw the ball near the end zone where he was picked off by Embry only after review, the ball hit the ground off of Embry's arms thus has been ruled as an incomplete pass which sucks but at least it was now fourth and nine, so it was time for the Angels to go for a field goal.
It was funny what happened there. They had to redo the kick, three times. The first time was when Sam jumped over the team and failed to missed the kick somehow as it was good, but the flag was called on the Angels for false start, so they had to redo it as they go back five yards. So the second time, Sam did it again and jumped over the team, this time blocking the kick only we got penalized this time because Sam knocked the kicker down moving the Angels forwards. Now Sam decided to sit this one out on the third try as the kick was good just as the second quarter end.
After halftime, it was our turn to receive the ball to start the game. On the first drive, the defense came out with blitz that I didn't have time to react when they got me… only I wasn't down as I stayed on my feet and escaped the sack as I started running getting us a first down a gain of fifteen yards.
"Time for a little reenactment." I give them the play and broke the huddle where we lined up with the ball. "Red 16, ready… set hike!" As soon as I called it, I got the ball as movement was made and then handed the ball to Ben who tucked it against his body and made a run for it straight into the offensive line who was holding off the defense when this happened.
"Oh look at this run!" Luke called as Ben broke through and continues running as the crowd erupted into cheers as Ben kept on running, breaking tackles with a stiff arm with assistance from us as we prevented the defense from stopping this great play all the way down field. "What a run! There goes The Train! Still on his feet! Has blockers now, he's dancing his way… for the touchdown!"
The crowd went wild when Ben turned and jumped backwards into the end zone perfecting the Beast Quake by Marshawn Lynch, and when he got up, he, Demetri and I ran to the side of the end zone and looked at Alec who gave the signal that says, "And ready, set, go!" and soon the three of us pretended to pull a sack up to our legs and did a potato sack race where Demetri and I "fell", and Ben "won" as we now lead the game 21 to 10.
Near the end of the third quarter, it was now 31 to 20 as the Angels scored a touchdown with another field goal while we got a touchdown, with another successful connection of me and Demetri and a field goal as well.
At the start of the fourth quarter, Coach Clapp decided to give me a break and let Mike play.
Big mistake.
On the first play at the twenty-five-yard line, Mike's first passed was intercepted and brought back for a pick six causing disappointment from us while our opponents cheered. Mike of course blamed the freshman who he was throwing to even though Mike was the one with bad communication not letting him know as coach and I called him out on that. Now it's 31 to 28 after the Angels went for two because Tyler blew the coverage thinking he should go out and tried to stop the quarterback thus abandoning the receiver he was supposed to guard. So it was our turn with the ball again and still needing more time to recover, Mike was still playing and once again, he fucked up… big time.
Mike was stripped from the ball and it fell to the ground making it a live ball as players dove for it. Mike screwed up because he was about to dive in but hesitated and pulled back like he wasn't even trying which cost us the ball and the Angels to recover for a touchdown. Once again, Mike blamed everyone but himself which was enough in Coach's book for the night for Mike as he was benched the rest of the night.
Down by four, it was our ball again and this time I didn't mess up as I got us at our own forty-six-yard line where it was third and six. These next ten minutes, we have to go all out and that's what we're about to do.
"Ready, set hike!" I called as I caught the ball and looked around until I saw him and threw a bullet pass to,
"Alec Volturi," Chad yelled as Alec caught the ball and made a run for it and was down but enough for a first down. "Breaks free! Alec Volturi! Still going until he is stopped but gave what the Titans needed for a first down!"
Well if they thought that was good, wait until they see this. After a sack and an incomplete pass, I threw the ball when a blitz came to, who else?
"It's Alec Volturi!" Chad announces as the crowd cheered seeing Alec breaks two tackles towards the end zone. "First down and more! Touchdown! And Alec shows that he's Volturious!"
Ben, Demetri and I ran over to Alec forming a line where we celebrated by dancing to NSYNC's Bye-Bye-Bye which got the crowd to go wild to us, The Elite Four.
After the extra point, the defense held the Angels down after some sacks and incomplete passes getting to only a field goal tying the game. Four minutes left into the final quarter and we need another touchdown to win this game. On our ball though, I had a few incomplete passes, a few hits and a sack but I was about to get us down at the five-yard line towards the end zone, but the defense held us to a fourth down. We would go for a field goal, but I figure we should go for it because we are almost out of time which was why I called for a timeout to explain to coach of the plan and then relay it to the team.
"Let's do this, Quadruple Finish!" I said and the team nodded before we broke the huddle and lined up with the ball. "Blue 21, Red 81, Green 11," I called out as I moved over to where the right tackle is at. "Easy, easy, take this!"
At that moment, everyone gasped when the ball was snapped when I wasn't in position and as Alec started running straight to the left side of the field. I smirked as Ben caught the snap and tossed it to Alec who caught it and passed it to Demetri who is running back around to the right side of the field until he saw me running and throws it towards me… wide open.
"Are you kidding me?!" Chad yells when I caught the ball in the end zone as our fans went nuts. "Slayward caught a touchdown pass from Brave Bird!"
"Well those two know how to play it both ways! Tracker and Cullen are the dynamic duo with spectacular chemistry. " Luke commented as Ben, Alec, Demetri and I got together for my style of a celebration. Alec picks up the ball and looks at Demetri holding up like he was ready to bat with Ben acting as the umpire. Alec then throws the ball at Demetri like a baseball when it hit Demetri on his leg causing Demetri to comes charging towards Alec as Ben and I joined in on the baseball brawl reenactment.
After that, I picked up the ball and ran to the sidelines where the junior squad is and found Nessie where I picked her up in one arm and spun around with her causing Nessie to giggle.
"That's for you kiddo!" I smiled when I put Nessie down and handed her the ball while ruffling her hair. Nessie was squealing, jumping up and down with the ball in her arms as I ran back to the sidelines taking off my helmet being cheered for that awesome play. We were now winning by a touchdown. Now if the defense can hold the Angels up, we would win this game.
That's easier said than done when Brock got his team all the way down at the ten-yard line with only twenty seconds left in the game and we thought this could be it if the Angels score a touchdown and go for two. It looks like it could be game over… until,
"Brock throws the ball towards the en – INTERCEPTED!" Chad yells as we all cheered seeing Seth jumped in and picked off Brock and started running being wide open as the Angels try to chase him down. "It's pick off by Seth Clearwater! Beast Boy takes it all the way with no one stopping him as he makes his way… for a touchdown!" The team and I went wild as we saw the defense do their celebration by running down the field to join Seth as they gathered around facing our school mascot who was pretending to take pictures for team which look awesome.
"And that is it! Forks High wins the game 52 – 38!" Chad announces as our school and the team and I went crazy. "What a way to start this year and what a year for Edward Cullen!"
The team and I were running down the field joining the defense as we celebrated our first win of the season. This is how you fucking start your senior year! Nothing can top this!
As I was hoisted by my teammates for how I was able to lead this team to victory, I looked at the crowd who were chanting my name which is what I love. I saw the whole school cheering for me, girls going wild, cheerleaders waving their pompoms in their air, my parents looking so proud and happy and every poster that reads out like "Slayward 17" or "Edward the G.O.A.T."
As I examined the crowd with a smile on my face, I saw outside the stands where some people were watching but were unable to find seats, I saw a group of seven teens all together watching the game. I didn't know if they were watching the whole time but what got my attention is the person in the middle. My smile changed into curiosity at the person wearing a light purple sweatshirt with a hood over her brown hair with blue jeans. She was holding something, but I didn't pay attention to it because I was focus on her eyes. For some reason, they looked at as if they were on me. But before I could even react to it, something splashed over my head causing me to close my eyes and opened to see myself being put down as I was soaked in orange Gatorade.
"Free cheers for Edward!" Demetri yelled as the team chanted my name, but I didn't pay attention as I looked up at the spot I saw before I got drenched to see the group of people were gone. I broke out to run off the field ignoring everyone calling my name as I made my way through the parking lot and looked around leaving me confused.
No, surely I was being all happy and stoked that we won the game right? It was just my imagination making me see things. Correct? It's just because I'm a fan myself that I was seeing things. It's just not possible. How? It couldn't be. There's no way. She can't be here.
There was no way I saw Bella Swan at my game.
