Meeting The Team
A/N: Thank you to everyone to reviewed!!
After I pack everything Dwayne asks me if I have skates.
"No, why?" I say
"Oh because were all gonna be playin on skates" He says
"Okay… and I care why?" I say with attitude
"I dunno juts thought you might wanna wear em if you had em but I guess not" He says
So we get to the park and Dwayne introduces me to: Connie, Julie, Portman, Fulton, Russ, Charlie and Adam.
"The rest are all out of town until next week when school starts" He says to me
"You guys! This is Lia she's gonna be playing w/ us today if it's alright"
"yea sure" They all say
Portman looks me up and down and starts laughing
"You mean I'm going up against that shrimp? She's only what 5'4" He says
"5'5 actually and trust me I could kick ur ass anyday anytime buddy" I reply
"oh really, well get a stick and ur taking face off against me" He says
"bring it on jockey" You say in a competitive tone
So we get into the middle of the park, Russ drops the puck, and I slam Portman into the ground.
"Tough enough for you jockey?" I say
He gets up and come charging after me.
He hooks my leg and I fall flat one my face.
The game goes on like this me and him fighting and me pushing around the other players. After the game in over everyone like hates me and I'm glad cuz I wasn't there to make friends.
As I was walking away from the park I hear Portman and Fulton talking
"I heard shes a run away from Kentucky" Fulton says
"yea well I heard she got kicked out of so many foster homes that they had to put her in Juvi" Portman replies
I decide to take a different route home to clear my head about everything that's happened so far in my life.
I find a park bench and sit down. I put my head in my hands and I think about what happened.
What did I do so wrong for my parents to leave? Could I have been better? Fuck them! They Left me! But I wanna find them and ask them why. I have enough money maybe one weekend during school I'll go and hire an investigator. Yea that's what I'll do.
I get stirred from my thoughts when I hear someone sit down beside me. It was….. Adam.
"Adam what are you doin here?" I ask
"Just came to clear my head. I guess that's what you were doing"
"Yea well anyways I guess I better back to Dwayne' house before he wets himself" I say
"I guess, are you going to Eden Hall with us?" He asks
"Yea I think so why?" I ask Suspiciously
"Just wondering, anyways see you later" He says
"Lata" I say back and head for Dwayne's house
