Part 14: Troubles Begin

School (Monday Morning)

As Jessie tried to open her locker, she felt familiar arms coming from behind her and hugging her waist. "Morning!" Jess said elatedly before turning around.

"Morning to you too," a tired Katie replied giving her girl a hug.

"What's wrong, you look real tired?"

"Eh heh…" Katie began sheepishly, "I couldn't sleep…"

"Why?"

"I missed holding you…"

"Katie… I just didn't see you for two days! And you couldn't sleep?" Jess said teasingly.

"Yah…"

Bell

"Damn that bell…" Katie grumbled annoyed at the thing, "Always has to ring at the worst of times."

"Calm down Katie. I'll see you at lunch?"

"Of course," Katie brightened up a little.

With this Jessie leaned in and gave Katie a quick peck on the cheek and flew down the corridor to class. Katie stood there absolutely elated and happy again, 'Oh yeah… class'.

School (Lunch)

After a few weeks of high-speed friendship bonding, Jessie, Katie, Sam, Grace and Becky created a new table in the canteen. So now everyone in school knows who exactly they shouldn't mess with, because they were a friend of Katie's and Sam. Tad and Russell would join their table on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, it was like their new routine now.

"So… soccer training after school today," Becky started.

"Oh yeah, nearly forgot," said Katie. 'A few more hours with Jessie…'

"So I don't have to wait for you right?" Grace asked Jess.

"Yah, Sam will give me a ride home right?"

Sam nodded, "As usual…"

Feeling like joining in, Tad said, "Do you even get anything out of this whole free ride thing?"

"Uh… No."

"Then why bother, you should just leave them alone and drive off one day." After saying this Tad earned himself a smack across the head from Katie. "OW…" he whined rubbing his now injured head. Everyone laughed.

"That's what you get for encouraging Sam to leave your best-friend and her girlfriend to walk home in bewilderment."

"Sorry." Tad said raising his arms up in defeat.

Oblivious to them, on the other end of the hall, Sarah was sitting with her gang of bitchy people, glaring over at their happy table. 'I hate that stupid Jessica Sammler girl, she just had to steal my Katie away… She's so gonna get it…"

Soccer training

After a nice half hour of warming up and some soccer exercises, such as keeping the ball off someone else or shooting goals, they played a mini game of soccer. The coach divided them equally into two teams, being fair, the coach decided to not put the two star goal shooters on the same team, therefore Katie and Jessie ended up on different teams, and opposite ends of the field. Also on Jessie's team was Sam, and Sarah was on Katie's.

During the game, Sarah finally found a way to take revenge on Jessie, seeing that Sarah was defender and Jessie was forward. Whenever Jessie had the ball, Sarah was always there, and quite a few times, Sarah practically knocked Jessie off her feet and stole the ball away, but because there was no illegal contact, therefore the coach could not call for a foul. In the last five minutes of the game, Jessie had the ball and was about to shoot for goal, but before she could, Sarah kicked her ankle and Jessie fell to the ground with immense pain. The coach quickly blew the whistle, and everyone quickly ran towards the injured Jess.

"Jessie, are you alright?" the coach asked once he got there.

Jessie was in so much pain, she could barely reply, she whimpered out, "my ankle… really hurts…"

Katie, who was on the other end of the field finally got here and had pushed everyone out of the way to get to her girl's side.

"Oh My God Jess! Are you okay?" lifting Jessie up for a hug, while the coach was inspecting her ankle.

Once Jessie had heard Katie's voice, she quickly looked up and clung onto Katie for dear life. Sam looked on helplessly, and helped the coach with Jessie's ankle.

"So how's Jessie's ankle," Sam asked.

"Hmm… I think it's nothing much, just a slight injury. A week of rest should do."

"But… but… do we have a game this week?" Jessie asked through small tears, that were trickling down her cheeks.

"Game… Game… Game…" The coach began looking through this little writing pad, he just pulled out of his back pocket. "Nope… thank god its next week!" he said relieved, "I don't wanna lose one of our best players…"

The whole team also let out a sigh of relief, well everyone except Sarah. 'Damn that lucky Sammler…'

"Anyways… it's about time, you guys can go home now." The coach said inspecting his watch.

Before heading off, everyone said things similar to "Get well soon" to Jessie, and "Bye coach," and left Sam, Katie, Jessie, Becky and the coach on the field.

"Jess, can you get up?" the coach asked the injured girl.

"Yah." She replied, whilst getting up with the help of Katie and Sam.

"Good, good." He smiled, "Rest your ankle for the rest of the week, hope to see you lively by next week!" and he walked off.

"Bye coach," the four said.

After a few limping steps, Jessie winced at the pain her ankle was giving her. Katie noticed this and stopped walking, which also caused the other two from walking.

"What are you doing Katie," Jessie inquired.

Katie crouched down in front of Jessie, with her back towards the girl, "Giving you a piggy-back ride. Jump on."

With Becky and Sam's help, Jessie was finally on Katie's back, and the three began to make there way over to the change rooms, with Jessie on Katie's back. On there walk, Sam curiously asked, "What happen out there?"

"I think Sarah kicked me in the ankle…" Jessie began.

"Sarah!" Katie and Sam said in unison.

"Miss Evil Vice-captain?" Becky questioned

"Yeah." Jessie nodded, "I swear she was on me all day, she like knocked me over a few times, that's why I kept falling over before."

"Must be the jealousy" Sam said.

"She is so gonna get it, if she ever hurts Jessie again…" Katie said furious at the fact that someone has hurt Jessie.

After changing…

After getting changed, Jessie was dropped off (by Katie) near the car park with Becky.

"You going home now?" Jessie inquired Becky.

"Nup, Justin and I are going to get nachos!"

"Aw, NACHOS! Well have fun!"

"We're back," came Katie holding her own bags, and Jessie's, following close behind was Sam.

"ALRIGHT! Now I shall hand your girl back to you, and I'm off! See you guys tomorrow!" Becky called out, and nearly tripping over something.

"Bye" They all said together laughing.

"I'll get the car…" Sam said, picking up her own bags and headed off to her car.

Sitting there with their bags, Jessie leaned her head against Katie's shoulder, suddenly a breeze came by and Jessie shivered. With natural instinct, Katie wrapped her arms around Jessie, hoping to warm up the girl. They sat there like that until the black BMW came to a halt right in front of them. Katie tucked Jess into the back seat, before she grabbed the bags and threw them into the trunk. And of they went to Jessie's house.
