"I could beat you in my sleep" Odd said proudly.
"I doubt that, you're too busy drooling!" Alex said back trying to be creative. Odd blushed because Madison was there. He would not lose to Alex. Not only because Madison was there but also because his mouth was big, and his stomach was bigger! He really liked Madison and he wanted to impress her. They ate for five minutes straight before Alex got full. Odd had won. He looked over at Madison who was silently eating her salad.
"What are you eating?" Odd asked Madison.
"A salad" she replied.
"Does it even fill you up?"
"There are lots of vitamins in green vegetables and they give you energy, besides, we have gym next, if I pig out, I'll be too tired to do anything"
"And trust me when she pigs out, she pigs out" Alexis put in. Madison slugged her. "OUCH" Alexis yelled in pain. Madison gave a sly smile.
"Are you saying she has a bigger stomach than me?" Odd asked shocked.
"Yeah" Alexis answered. "She eats like a cow"
"Well, just because not everyone is skinny like you doesn't give you the right to make fun of everybody else!" Madison yelled then got up and ran away, throwing the rest of her salad in the trash bin on her way out. The group kept on looking at Alexis to where Madison had just disappeared. Madison went into her dorm and started crying into her pillow.
Ten minutes later, Odd walked in and saw Madison asleep on her bed. She had cried herself to sleep. Gym was going to start in five minutes so he had to wake her up. He tried shaking her but she still slept. He tried talking to her but still nothing happened. He tried water but still, she slept, nothing was working. Class started in three minutes and it took two to get to the gym. Odd noticed a blow horn by their desk so he picked it up and blew it. Madison sat straight up in bed with her eyes wide. She noticed Odd and gave him a questioning look.
"What are you doing in here?" She asked him.
"We have gym in three minutes and it takes two to get there and we really shouldn't be late, Jim hates it and…." Madison pushed him out the door closing the door behind her.
They ran down to the gym. Jim told everyone to get into a group of eight. Madison and Odd arrived to find the others counting the people in the group. Ulrich waved Odd and Madison over. "We have eight people including you guys, we need eight so we're set" Yumi said happily.
Sissi walked up to them and they just stared at her. "Are you going to ask me to be on your team or not?" She asked rudely.
"Not" Ulrich replied. Sissi's jaw dropped in shock.
"Burn" Alexis said just loudly enough for them to hear. Sissi stomped away.
"Today we are going to be playing soccer just for fun" Jim said. "You can go against whatever team you want or you can just practice on the sidelines by the bleachers. Whatever you do, make sure you stretch out your muscles that I know some of you haven't used all summer" Madison sat down and started stretching.
"Who's going to do what?" Yumi asked.
"I think I'm going to practice a little bit before I get into a game" Aelita stated.
"Me too" Jeremie added quickly.
"I'm down for a game" Madison said. She was still stretching.
"WOW, you're flexible" Yumi said
"I was in gymnastics before we moved here" Madison answered.
"Alexis, were you in any sports?"
"No, unless you consider shopping a sport, because unlike Madison, I had a life" Alexis answered.
"I did to have a life, it just happened to be filled with a lot of sports instead of make overs and shopping" Madison said.
"So you played other sports too?" Alex asked.
"Why are you trying to get off topic?" Alexis snapped.
"Dude, I'm scared one of you is going to be dead at the end of this" Alex said. "So, what other sports do you play Madison?"
"Umm, volleyball, soccer, softball, lacrosse, tennis, hockey, figure skating, and a little bit of flag football" Madison answered smoothly. "Oh yeah, and karate"
"Cool, Yumi and I are in martial arts and Odd and I play soccer." Ulrich said.
"I can't play any sports" Jeremie sighed.
"I'm pretty good at basketball" Alex said.
"Me too but I was never on a team" Madison said.
"We are going to have to play together soon then" Alex said. He then started stretching.
Alexis grabbed Madison's hand and took her a little ways away. "What are you doing flirting with Alex?"
"I wasn't flirting" Madison answered. "He was just being nice and offering to play basketball with me sometime"
"That's what being flirty is"
"Whatever, I didn't mean it that way" Madison said as she headed back to the others, they were still stretching so she sat down and started stretching some more.
