Hope you like! Chapter 3! Review... Please?


He closed his eyes from fatigue. Petey set him down, as sobs racked his body. He ran blindly, towards one of the local shops. He used their phone to contact the hospital and the rest of the team. They were going to meet him there.
"How bad is it?" Petey screamed as he ran in. "How bad?"

Coach Boone walked slowly up to him. "He'll make it. But he may never play football again."

Petey let out his sobs, but tried to wipe his tears as Mr. Bass came forward and embraced him.

"We'll have to wait," Mr. Bass cried. "My poor boy."


Petey walked in about a week later. He hurried, because he heard shouts of joy coming from Sunshine's room.

He walked in, and smiled. Sunshine had woken, and he was back to normal already. Petey grinned as he saw Sunshine already stroking his hair the way he usually did with his hand.

"Sunshine," he called in a high voice, teasing him. "Sunshine. You know those golden locks ain't gonna grow back any faster from all that rubbing eh? Sunshine."

Sunshine looked up and grinned, those his face was covered in scratches.

"Sunshine eh?" he said repeating the words from their first meeting. "That's cool. I dig it." He raised up his arm, the way he had when he was new.

Petey looked around surprised, copying it exactly.

"Come on don't leave me hanging bro," Sunshine said.

Petey clapped his arm against Sunshine's.

"Oh my gosh!" he yelled. "I can't believe this. He called me bro man!"

Then Sunshine interrupted. "Where's Bertier? I need to give him his kiss."

The team started laughing hard as Bertier looked up, saying, "What?"

But then they quieted down as Petey asked Sunshine a difficult question.

"Sunshine, bro, who did it to you?"

Sunshine stared down at his hands. There was an awkward silence. Then, "Ray."

"What?" Gerry's voice ripped through the silence. "You're lying! Ray wouldn't do that… he wouldn't…" his voice faded off as he tried to reassure himself.

Sunshine looked up, tired. "He did."

"I DON'T BELIEVE YOU!" Gerry screamed. "YOU'RE LYING!"

"I'm not," Sunshine whispered. "I should know."

"Why should anyone believe you?" Gerry's voice became a low, sneerful hiss. "You're just a hippie boy."

Anybody could see the pain that washed over Sunshine's face.

"Aww man," Julius said, trying to turn the whole thing into a joke. "That was harsh Gerry."

Nobody laughed.

Gerry walked away angrily, his head high in the air. He had forgotten. He was racist again. The whole teamwork. Everything. Gone because of one word. Ray.

Sunshine looked at them. Each and every one. Anyone could see the hurt that filled his eyes. "Get out," he mumbled.

He didn't want anyone to see him cry.
