CHAPTER THREE

Viola was running around kicking the ball and doing different kick shots when she heard someone behind her. She turned around and realized Duke was standing there watching her.

"Um, hi Duke. I thought you were in class?" Viola said picking up his ball, looking down at it she said, "I hope you don't mind but I borrowed you soccer ball."

Duke was a little uncomfortable, he didn't want her to think that he was just standing around watching her, and managed to mumble, "Don't worry about the ball."

Viola smiled kindly at Duke trying to make him feeling a little more comfortable and kicked him the ball.

Duke stopped the ball with the tip of his foot.

"Wanna play?" Viola asked.

"Sure." Duke said dropping his books on the floor and kicked the ball back at Viola.

"Come get it if you can." Viola said laughing taking off with the ball across the field.

Viola pulled all her skills to keep the ball away from Duke, doing all her fancy foot work and laughing constantly when Duke failed to get the ball from her. At one point she kicked the ball in the air and started to bounce it on her knee laughing.

"I thought you were suppose to be the striker, you can't even get the ball away from a girl." Viola said in a teasing tone.

"Yeah well if I had the ball I'm sure you wouldn't be getting it from me, so lets make turn the table around here and see if you'll be eating your words." Duke said, he can't believe how comfortable he became with her so sudden.

"Fine, lets see your moves." Viola said kicking the ball back at Duke.

She chased him around the field and right before she was about to call it quits she made one bold move and managed to kick the ball away from Duke.

The biggest smile broke out on Viola's face and she started to dance around the field. Duke just watched her with amazement.

"Well I guess we know how's the best." Viola said laughing.

"I can't believe they cut your team at Cornwall, if the rest of the girls played like you then you may actually give our team some competition." Duke said.

"Well I was told once that I was better then most of the guys on that team, but the same guy also told me that he loved me and that he would never hurt me." Viola said getting angry just at the thought of Justin.

"The guys a loser for what he did to you, believe me you are better then all of those guys especially Draeton." Duke said.

"Yeah well it doesn't matter anyways, its not like I get to play anymore. My team got cut, so I'll never get into the school I want to." Viola said sitting down in the middle of the field twirling the ball on her finger.

Duke sat down beside her and said, "Too bad you didn't go here, our coach is pretty good, if you made a good case he may let you try out."

"Too bad huh, I am going to have to go back to Cornwall eventually, I can't just drop out of school because what Justin did to me." Viola said.

"You and your brother seem really close." Duke said changing the subject from soccer because he could see that it was bumming out Viola.

"We're like best friends. I guess growing up with our crazy parents it was easy to rely on each other for company. Besides being twins it was easy we were always there, birthdays together everything together. I can tell him everything, I guess that's what made it so easy to come here when everything happened it Justin." Viola said, "Do you have any brother's or sisters?"

"Nope just me. My parents suck me in a private school and pretty much only keep in touch with me when its convenient for them. My mother is the worst of all." Duke said. "I guess its ok though, I got to come here and play soccer, and that's what I love so I can't really complain too much."

"So why aren't you in class, I asked before but you never really answered me." Viola asked.

"Didn't feel like going, just chemistry, nothing really important. Felt like coming down here and kicking the ball around a bit, helps clear my head." Duke said.

"I know how you feel, soccer is the best way to clear anyone's mind. Or at least for me it is." Viola said. "So when are you guys going to practice again?"

"This afternoon, you should come check it out." Duke said completely shocked at what he just said. He completely meant it but he couldn't believe that he actually asked it. Nor could he believe how easily he was talking to her, usually he couldn't get two words out to a girl, let alone one that was as pretty as Viola, but some how he felt very comfortable with her.

"That sounds like fun, I would love to see you guys in action, and maybe with me not being out there you'll get a chance at the ball." Viola said playfully hitting Duke on the shoulder.

Duke smiled back at her and got back on his feet. "Well I had better get back to class, it was nice talking to you Viola."

"You too Duke." Viola said smiling back.

"And just me you are better off without Draeton." Duke said as he walked away.

Viola slowly got up and headed back to the dorm room not being able to get Duke out of her mind. He was so different then she thought he would be.

Viola got back to the dorm room and picked up the phone and called Kia, who forwarded in Yvonne and Paul.

"Where have you been Viola, we have been worried about you. Been calling your phone like crazy, but you haven't been answering." Kia said.

"Me and Justin broke up, he was cheating on me." Viola said not bothering to put off telling them. "I'm at Illyria at Sebastian's."

"Oh my God Vi, are you OK?" Yvonne asked.

"Yeah I'm fine, I guess it happened for a reason. You guys were all right about him, and I guess I can see that now." Viola said.

"You sound so calm and relaxed for someone who has just been cheated on." Paul said.

"We can go out and kill him if you want." Kia said half jokingly.

"Don't worry I'll figure out how to deal with him in my own way." Viola said.

"So when are you coming back to Cornwall?" Yvonne asked.

"I don't know, I think I have a plan formulating, which will be the best kind of revenge for Justin." Viola said secretively as the wheels in her head started to turn.

"Well what is it girl, don't keep us all in suspense." Paul said into the phone.

"Don't worry, if everything works out you'll be the first to know.

They all talked for a few more minutes then Viola hung up. She borrowed a pair of Sebastian's sweats and t-shirt to get out of the clothes that she had been wearing more then a day then laid down in Sebastian's bed and took a nap to kill the time for the soccer practice to start. She was woken up when Duke walked into the bedroom.

He looked over at her and realized that he woke her up and said, "I'm sorry I woke you, if I had known you were sleeping I would have been more quiet."

"Don't worry about it. I'm glad actually, I want to go with you to soccer practice." Viola said getting up.

"Ok, come on then. I have to meet Tody and Andrew and we'll all go down together." Duke said grabbing his bag with his soccer stuff.

While they were walking out Viola asked him, "Where you serious when you said if I talked to the coach he may let me try out with the team?"

Duke a little taken back by the question said, "Yeah I'm sure he would take you serious, besides I'll vouch for you. I've seen you play your really good."

"Thanks." Viola said.

Before reaching Toby and Andrew's room, Duke asked, "How do you plan to play for us when you don't even go here?"

"Don't worry about that, I'll deal with that when the time comes." Viola said. She really didn't want to discuss her plan with anyone until everything was official.

After they met up with Toby and Andrew they headed down at the field. They were a little shocked to see Duke with a girl, especially his roommates sister and the fact that he didn't seem nervous around her.

Once they got to the field Duke went right up to Coach Dinklage and introduced Viola.

"Coach I think you should let her try out with the team." Duke said.

Everyone looked completely shocked by Duke saying this.

"But man she's a girl." Toby said.

"I bet once I get the ball none of you guys will be able to get it away from me, nor stop any shot I fire at the goal." Viola said, she knew she sounded cocky but she really wanted her chance and therefore had to sound herself up.

The coach looked at Duke, "What do you think?"

"I've seen her coach she's really good. What's the harm in letting her try." Duke said looking at the team and realized that they looked completely shocked by this suggestion, "What are you guys scared a girl is going to show you up?"

Everyone mumbled that they weren't scared of a girl so the coach finally gave in and let her go out there. He broke them up into the two teams with Viola on the same team as Viola. Together they dominated the field, none of the other members were able to take the ball from them, and together their team one with the other side completely unable to score a goal.

Everyone was completely shocked at how good she was and everyone congratulated her. Even the coach was shocked and said "Well if you plan to be staying at Illyria you will definitely have a spot on this team. I think you will make a good edition."

Viola smiled, "Don't worry I'll be staying."

She winked at Duke and said, "See you later boys."

She took off running back to the dorm rooms and found Sebastian and Olivia sitting on his bed talking.

"Um Viola, any reason why you are wearing my clothes?" Sebastian asked when he saw her run in.

"I couldn't wear the same clothes two days in a row, dah." Viola said laughing and Olivia joined in with her.

"So what's with the big smile?" Sebastian asked.

"I just made the Illyria soccer team." Viola said barely able to contain her excitement.

"Um, I would say congratulations except that you don't go to Illyria." Sebastian said kinda laughing but then the serious look on Viola's face made him ask, "What are you plotting now?"

"You'll see." Viola said with a wink, picking up her school bag and her clothes she had been wearing earlier. "Catch you later Olivia."

With that she was gone.

Sebastian looked at Olivia and said, "She's crazy."

Olivia laughed and they went back to talking about other things.
