"Talking"

'Thinking'

XxxxxxxxxxxxxxxX

2 weeks later...

I fall on my bed my face buried in my pillows and breath out "my body hurts!" I groan out loud.

Rufus sits on my pillow next to me and pats my head "You okay?" He asks worriedly.

"I don't know why I went to go to weights today. I can't even feel my arms. How am I going to eat! I can't move!" I say sadly turning over on my back looking up at the ceiling.

Today was our 9th day of practice.

I can kept count ,it's not weird.

It was more brutal then it was during tryouts but I managed somehow I honestly don't know how I did, but it happened.

Oh ya did I mention I made the team. Middleton's new running back.

Shocker right?

*Flashback*

"Ron!" yelled Felix as I hit the door on my way out of class. Shaking my head I looked up at him.

"Ready to go to lunch? I can sure use something to eat." I replied putting my hands on my stomach. But before walking off to the cafeteria I noticed he was looking over my shoulder.

Before I turned around to look in the direction he was looking at he pulled me with him.

"Hey look over there. What's going on?" He questioned. "I don't know. Let's go." I reply puzzled looking at the crowd of people.

Recognizing some as football players my curiosity got the best of me "you know what...we have time let's check it out."

In the back of my head I knew it was the list of people who made it on the team.

If I had to be honest I didn't want to go because I had a feeling I was only going to disappoint myself by not making the team after all the accidents that happened during tryouts.

I swear they were accidents.

As we managed to break through the small crowd only enough to see the list so we could at least read it. I squinted my eyes trying to focus on seeing my name.

Me and Felix simultaneously tilted our heads to the side trying to read. "You see my name Felix?" I ask calmly. "Not yet." He replied maintaining a poker face.

Brick Flagg...Jason Henchmen...Blah blah not Ron S. Yet...Steven... Mathew...

But then I saw it.

My name was on there! It doesn't matter that they spelled it wrong! I made the team!

"Felix! I made it!" I yelled grabbing his shoulders and shaking him vigorously. "I made it. I made it." Felix grabbed ahold of my arms and tried to calm me down.

"Ron just breath before you give me whiplash. In through your nose out through mouth. Just like we've practiced before." He said calmly trying to mask his excitement.

After several seconds later.

"Thanks I needed that." I say gratefully. "That's what best friends are for Ron." Replied Felix smiling placing a hand on my shoulder.

There was a brief silence and we just smiled at each other.

"Felix guess what?" I whispered smiling. Smiling himself "Let me guess...you made the team."

"I made the team!" "You made the team!" We said jumping up and down.

*End flashback*

Now that I think about it we looked like little girls jumping up and down in the hallway.

But that was 2 weeks ago so we can forget about that. All that matters is that I made the team and befriended a couple of guys.

With that in mind I smiled. Turning over to Rufus I asked him "How does Bueno Nacho sound?" Seeing him face turn to excitement as he ran up to me. "Uh-huh Nacho mmm." He responded running his stomach.

Laughing at his reaction I picked him up and made my way downstairs when I heard my fathers voice and stopped in my tracks.

I haven't told them about me making the team. It wasn't so important to tell them.

"Ronald. Can you come in here please?"

"Ya" I respond. "What have you been up to these past few weeks? Me and your Mother are worried you've been coming home late." He said patting on the couch signaling me to sit next to him.

"I've just been taking your and Moms advice of getting out and about." Replying as I made my way to the couch "In a good way" I quickly add before sitting.

"What have you been doing exactly?"

I shrug "Well I made the football team so I have that going for me at the moment."

Looking up I see him just staring at me.

"Why haven't you told your I or your mother about this?"he finally responds. "You and Mom seemed kind of busy."

"We are never to busy for you Ronald."

Placing a hand on my shoulder "So have you played a game yet?"

"Not yet." I knew where this was going and I don't like it. "When is your next game?" I knew he was going to ask that question!

"Next week. Why?" 'They are going to embarrass me if they go!' "Me and your mother will try to go then."

Extending his arm he said "Let's go tell your mother about this." Getting up I started to follow him but he stopped abruptly "congratulations son you made the team." He said hugging me.

"Uh thanks Dad." I respond awkwardly patting his back.

'Looks like I'm not having the delicious nachos today'

"So your parents are going to the game. What's the big deal" said Kim as she grabbed a fry from her tray. Looking up at me.

"It's not that big of a deal...Well it is a big deal because what if they embarrass me or I fail and do something stupid." I reply.

"Ron you always end up something." Added Felix. Looking to him I put over my heart and feign hurt "Felix you wound me." I say dramatically, but smiling nonetheless.

"So not the drama Ron." Looking over at Kim I reply "Well like I say I never want to be normal." I add.

"Sorry I'm late guys. Just had to finish something in class." I heard someone say from behind. Turning I see Monique going over to Felix and giving him a quick peck before taking her seat.

Looking over to Kim I put a finger over my mouth gagging. She hits my shoulder trying to stifle a laugh, but fails and laughs out loud getting the attention of Monique and Felix.

"What's so funny?" they both say in unison glaring at us. "Nothing!" She responded quickly while grinning at me.

"It's just I told her about what happened yesterday at home." I say afterward.

Putting her arm on the table and putting her head on her hand she stares at me and says "Well then tell us what happened at home." I swear I could have seen her smirking.

'These is why you don't lie' my wheel of lies was spinning in my head 'what can I tell her?'

I got it

Maybe not that...

"Well I was in my tree house Felix you know...the treehouse." I say holding my hands out in front me. He nods so I continue. "It's about this big. Right? Well I was climbing up the ladders when I forgot something in my house and as I was going back down I fell and landed like this."

I contort my arms in a weird shape trying to explain "That's why I can't feel my butt today."

But Felix wouldn't keep his mouth shut and said "I thought you said your butt hurt because of-" putting my hand over his mouth and I quickly add "the grass. Looks soft, but it's the opposite. Sometimes I feel like it out to get me." smiling at Monique.

"Sorry I asked." Monique said smiling not at all convinced. I knew she didn't fall for my story. I least my story was convincing to some. Just pretending it was.

"Stoppable keep running that's it!" I hear one of the coaches yell as I made my way down the field with the ball trying to avoid getting hit by one of my teammates.

Stay focused and you'll most likely make it.

One thing that I noticed was that I was faster then most of the players. And my smaller frame helped dodging and avoiding collision with them.

Almost there.

I feel a sharp pain on the left side of my ribs as I get taken down. Quickly getting up and shaking it off. I congratulate the fellow who got me.

"One more run through and we'll call it a day!" Brick yells. We all Get back in position quickly everyone wanting to go home. I keep my eyes on the quarterback.

"Down...set..!" I see him motion his leg so I make my way over "Hike!" Grabbing the ball and running as fast as my legs can take me.

After many turns and stopping I see I'm getting closer to my goal "Someone stop him!" I look over to my right and notice some of the cheerleaders walking out.

'Not now! Please not now!' What if Kim's there?' That thought made me smile. Me and Kim have been getting along very well this past few weeks.

Paying attention to the task at hand and pushing aside my thoughts I try to make my way to the end of the field.

Next thing I know is that I passed the field and was now on the track. Looking down at my shoes I ask myself out loud "how did I get here?"

"Always talk to yourself Ron." Looking up quickly "Well you know me KP." I reply smiling. She was leaning on the fence and just waved her hand. She looked nice in her cheer outfit.

Bringing my eyes back up to hers "What are you doing here?" I say blushing and rubbing my neck.

"I was just passing by and saw you playing so I decided to just wait for you. You don't mind do you?"

"No not at all I'm just sort of wondering why." I say sheepishly. She smiled "Well I was craving nachos and the ones we had at the place you took me were really good. I was wondering if you would come with me?"

If I knew any better I say she's nervous.

"Just let me shower and I'll gladly go with you." I say bowing down with a hand behind my back.

XxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxX

Grabbing my bag and hoisting it up for what seemed like the hundredth time I make my way over to the bleachers.

It was pretty cold outside this night looking up I don't see many stars. It's always cloudy her at night so you can't really see the stars.

But when they come out they look so amazing. Taking my time down the path I think about what I've done so far I come to realize one thing. That I have a crush on Kim.

Come on I mean who wouldn't. I will admit that I probably had one on her since elementary, but I always kept my distance. She's pretty...more like beautiful, athletic, and very social.

But that's what you see on the outside. These past few weeks I've gotten to know her more and she's not just pretty but she's compassionate, funny, smart, can be pretty stubborn at times.

I can't dwell on these thoughts for long because next you know I'll be fallen in love with her. I laugh out loud at that.

Entering the stadium I see she's sitting down by herself on her phone at the front of the bleachers. Dropping my bag I carefully and slowly make my way up to her.

Grabbing her phone I run off as fast I can off the bleachers. I hear her footsteps behind me "Ron! Give me back my phone!" I don't respond.

I jump over the fence that separates the track/field and the bleachers and run into the middle of the field.

Turning around I laugh at how she glaring at me with her hand at her hip "You know I can't catch you Ron." "Oh I know" I reply smugly.

"Ugh I have to go over there don't I?" She asks. "Mmhmm." I say moving slowly away from her trying to hold back my laughter.

Feeling her phone vibrate I look down and see the 'josh' on the notifications. Being momentarily distracted I didn't hear Kim running at me.

She collides with me and we both fall to the ground laughing "I thought you were going to move Ron." She says through her laughter.

"I know now not to mess with you I think you hit harder then most guys on the team." She looks at me seriously "are you calling me a guy?"

Instantly panicking "No! I'm just saying your really strong. Which is a good thing it not a bad thing." I say putting my hand up protecting my face.

She laughs "Ron I'm just messing with you." She says shoving me playfully. She looks down at my hand. I frown "What is it?"

"Can I have my phone back?" She says motioning to my arm "Huh-oh ya here."

"Ready for some nachos." She says looking up at me happily.

"Lead the way lady."

"This is actually happening Felix." I said over the phone as I was typing away on my computer trying to finish and essay for English.

"I know you should come over and play with me the graphics look way better!"

"Is Monique going to be there. I could only take so much PDA." I tease

"At least we keep it to the minimum unlike some other couples."

"Changing topics...are you going to the game tomorrow?" I asked

"It the first game of the season. So to answer your question yes I'm going this year. I never had a reason to go but since your playing now I do."

"When should we schedule to play Zombie Mayhem. This weekend?" I asked

"Ya. How does Saturday sound?" He responded slightly wincing "Depends what time Kim wants me to go to the mall with her."

I could here him grinning. And the teasing would start in 3,2,1...

"So are you going to make a move? From what I here from Monique she's got nothing but good things to say about you."

"Uh I don't think so I would rather not say anything and just stay friends. Also I kind of think her and Josh are talking." I say sadly.

Josh is a good guy from what I heard. I never personally talked to him, but h know he's an artist and good looking. Other than that I don't know him.

Wanting to get off the topic "Well it's pretty late I'm going to get some rest for the big game. See you at school."

"Alright later Ron."

Hanging up the phone I get ready for bed and go over the plays one last time before drifting off into sleep.

XxxxxxxxxxxxxxxX

"Oh no" I mumble to myself running through the hallway. Why you may ask? Well I forgot my bag in my first class i ran late this morning and didn't have time to put it in the locker room.

So here I am running trying to get there before my teacher closes it. I see someone coming out and getting ready to lock the door.

"Wait! Wait! My bag!" I yell tripping over my own foot and slide down to the teacher looking up with a slight smile I ask "can I please go in I forgot my bag."

Offering me a hand they "of course."

Getting my bag was easy I said good bye and went on my way when I notice Tara making her way over to me.

"Hey Ron." She says in that spirited voice of hers smiling up at me.

"Hey Tara. What's up?" I ask confused. The last time I talked to her was in the lunch line a while ago other then that I would just wave at her around school.

"Ready for the game?" She asks walking down the hall with me holding onto her books.

"I was born ready." I say puffing our my chest, brining my chin up higher and putting my hands to the side.

She smiles and then starts laughing "I'm mean it Ron, I heard you were nervous." She says as she stops walking and turn to look up at me.

"Me nervous"I pause and then continue "ya I'm pretty nervous it's my first game. Just like everyone else is feeling he same."

"Ron? You ready or am I interrupting something."

I turn around seeing Kim. "Hey Kim." She smiles "Hey Ron" looking over next to me "Hey Tara. Got your routine down?" She asked.

"Ya I'm ready. Are you?" She Replied. "Yup."

'Awkward' scratching the back of my head and smiling at both of them I decide to break the silence "Well Tara I think I'll be heading home." Turning to Kim "Are you going to come still?"

"Ya. See you later Tara." Kim says waving to her and I start walking once shes at my side.

"So how was your day?" I ask "it was alright. Yours?" She says bumping me with her shoulder looking up me.

Smiling down at her "It was okay I guess. Are we still on for Saturday?"

"Yes we are." Grabbing my hand she starts running down the hall "Come on we'll be late if we don't get home right now."

She's so demanding not in an annoying way though.

'Game time. Let's do this' I can hear the crowd cheering during the JV game from the locker room I believe they are tied right now against Upperton.

Thinking back if I knew I would be here in this position in a sport a few months ago I would've laughed. Never in a hundred years would I see myself as a person who would do a sport.

When I started yes I was terrified of breaking in half or not being good enough. It changed ,everyday got better I met new people and I would get to hang out with Kim after.

If I was honest to myself I really did look forward to going out to eat with a pretty girl. Even though she's my friend. I still looked forward to it.

Breaking my train of thought I hear a whistle blow "What are we going to do once we get out there!" "Win!" The team yells.

Another smaller coach glances over his shoulder and adds "but also have fun."

I smile at that as I get my helmet on.

XxxxxxxxxxxxxxxX

After our warm ups we start making our way towards the stadium and hear the iconic chant from the cheerleaders as well as the crowd.

Looking around a pretty big crowd decided to come. I never came before. Me and Felix would usually stay at his house lying video games making fun of the jocks.

Now I'm one and Felix is here I could tell because I hear him calling my name along with Monique I turn and wave at them hoping they could see me smiling underneath my helmet.

Entering the field we are greeted with loud cheering "The Mad Dogs came to play!" They repeated over and over.

Running to our side of the field I wave to Kim who smiles back and mouthes 'good luck'.

Standing on the sideline three of our team leaders make their way to the center to the field to shake hands.

Barken comes over and starts going over the plays and the positions we'll be in. Trying to process everything he just said I head back. While they kick.

"Stoppable your up!" Looks like it offense time. I'm not looking forward to this. Smiling at the opponents I'm met with glares.

'Note to self don't smile at the opponents.'

Turning back and positioning my self I turn to Brick letting him know I'm ready.

Nodding he yells "Down! Set! Hike!" Running I've to him I pretend I have the ball while he throws it to another person.

Seeing the ball glide through the air it looks so peaceful till it lands in our teammates hand and he get demolished Upperton players.

I wince. This is going to be a long game.

4th quarter Home 12- visitor 15

And only 1:39 left on the clock. And I've made one touchdown. Glancing down as I run through the field running for my life.

"My grandmother runs faster then that!" I hear Barken yell from the sideline. Turning my head slightly I see a guy getting ready to pounce me so I turn left.

Looking at the ground I see

20 yards...

10 yards...

5 yar-

I feel someone grab my ankles and feel myself start to fall my extending my hand I close to the end zone.

Hearing people cheer I slowly get up and see I made it looking around Barken makes his way up to me and slaps my back "adequate result." He says smiling.

"Dude you made the winning touchdown!" Brink says picking my up and throwing me over his shoulder.

"Where are we going?" Trying to get down to no avail. "Stop moving around will ya. It tradition."

Plopping me down on a chair I realize to late what he meant by 'tradition' as water is poured onto me.

Licking my lips and wiping my eyes I get up and shake my arms trying to get some of the water on them.

Turning around I see Kim trying to get through Brick and Jason and comes jogging up to me and gives me a hug, but pulls away to quickly in my opinion "your wet?"

I don't reply and I just point to the jug behind me. "See you had nothing to worry about today. You did great."

Looking up at the crowd she adds "Did your parents end up coming?" Frowning slightly "No they had to go somewhere, but the wished me luck."

"You really did do great it's a pity they didn't come."

"Ya. I've gotten used to it. Enough about sad stuff let me head over to shower and I'll meet You, Felix, and Monique to get something to eat." I suggest.

We stare at each other for a while. Eventually she nods and walks off. Now I'm looking forward to after this game and Saturday.
