Chapter 2
The soccer game
"BLOODY DEMONS" I roared angrily. It was almost 7:00 in the morning. I was leaving with Odd for Tallahassee at 8! THE SUN SHOULD BE COMING UP ANY TIME NOW I thought exhaustedly. These demons never stop!
Finally the sun came up at 7:30, meaning my job was done for the day. I leaped through my window at about 7:35. I phased back, quickly leaped into the shower. Than got dressed in a blue jersey with 16 and Tall printed on the back, black jersey shorts with a white stripe going around the ends, toped with a pair of low cut converse. I grabbed my cell phone, slid it into my pocket. I peaked at the clock. 8:00. I grinned, perfect timing. Xander honked the car and yelled " Lets go, Chrys!" I jogged down the stairs and got in Xander's car. The minute I was in the seat, Odd pulled out of the drive way and started for Tallahassee. Seeing as though we live all the way in Siesta Key, it took us a few hours but we found things to talk about.
We got to the soccer field about half an hour early so we got to meet the team we were rooting for.
" Odd, look there's the Florida Dolphin's team!" I whispered to Odd.
" Yeah lets meet 'em!" He whispered back.
" Hi" he said, waving.
They all turned to us and said in unison "HI".
One guy said" I'm Jack, that's Sam, Alex, Jason, Shawn, Jeff, Luis and Collin" he said pointing to each guy.
"You're not Collin Faye, are you?" I asked Staring at Collin
"Yeah, I am" he said eyeing me "Why?" he asked
I shrugged "Just wondering" I said
"What's you're names" Alex asked curious
"Xander"
"Chrys"
"Xander? Doesn't you're mom like you?" asked Luis containing laughter." And Chrys what's that short for, anyway?"
"My mom happens to love us very much and wanted us to be VERY UNIQUE!" I just about yelled," and its short for Chrystofer." I added quietly.
Luis apologized saying he was only trying to make us laugh.
"So do either of you guys play soccer?" Jeff asked
"Yeah, I do" I said grinning
"Than show us what ya got, girl!" Collin said kicking the ball to me.
That's all he had to say. I leapt into action. When I played a sport, any sport, I felt as if I was in my own little world. After a while I trotted back over to the team and Xander. Collin was grinning like he'd gotten a chocolate bar.
"Are you ok?" I asked concerned
" Oh uh I'm fine. Its just you're really good!" replied Collin, looking slightly embarrassed.
"err ok?" I said raising an eye brow
"Umm…yeah I was wondering if you wanted to hang out after the game?" he asked hopefully
"sure" I said "Xander and I should probably go and find our seats the games going to start soon!" I added. I turned and headed to the stands with Xander trailing, grinning like a maniac.
"what are you grinning at" I asked annoyed
"you got a date with a player!" he said, than broke into uncontrollable laughter.
I just growled and sat down to watch the game.
"WOO" I yelled
We were walking to a diner after the game. We had won. Now we were celebrating. Or should I say Collin and I were celebrating! We were going on our date.
