So I thought I would be kind and update earlier than I had originally planned, so I hope you like this one!

Chapter 5 - Rematch


"It's just right here." Nellie said and pointed at her house through the window while Blake slowed the car down. "Thanks for the ride." She said as he stopped the car.

"It's no big deal." Blake responded and flashed her a smile.

Nellie returned his smile, "Thanks though. I really appreciate it, you know, considering." She said softly and shrugged her shoulders. She would never have thought that the same guy that her brother had always talked about in such a degrading way was the same guy that had offered her a ride – twice – so she wouldn't have to walk home in the dark.

From what she had witnessed from Blake in the two ten minute car journeys that they had shared, he was definitely different to what she had always thought. Though she didn't have alot to judge him from, she knew he was different to most of the boys at Carmel. Of course she had come across guys at her own school that were completely nice and were not how she had expected them to be, but Blake was on a whole different scale. She thought he would be an Asshole Jock who only ever talked about football and girls.

Maybe she hadn't spent enough time with him to see the real Blake, but she had a feeling that what she had seen tonight wasn't fake, or staged, it was him and she couldn't help but want to get to know him.

"Anytime, okay?" Blake responded as he flashed her another smile.

Nellie nodded and climbed out of the car. "I'll see you." She said before she walked up her drive and into her house. She couldn't help but look up at his car before she shut the front door and he gave her a small wave before he drove away after she shut the door.

She let out a long sigh and lent against the wall slightly. This wasn't good, she was thinking about wanting to get to know her brother's worst enemy. She didn't know of any situation where this sort of thing turned out good. Her brother would kill her if he knew she had even accepted a ride from Blake, let alone if she became friends with him.

"Where's Reece?" Nellie jumped as she heard her father's voice and looked toward the staircase where she saw her father stood at the bottom.

"Uh- I think he's still at the party." Nellie responded as she put her hand on her heart to try and calm its erratic beating.

"Okay." Jack Veitenheimer nodded his head. "How was the game?" He asked as he walked through to the kitchen and Nellie followed him.

"You didn't hear yet?" Nellie responded, shocked that her father hadn't heard about their loss yet. "We lost." She said once her father shook his head.

"Damn it." Jack mumbled, his fists clenching at his sides. "I really thought we'd win this one." He added as he took out two glasses from the cupboard, pouring orange juice into each one.

"Yeah." Nellie absentmindedly nodded her head in agreement though she thought the complete opposite. "Reece was pretty bummed about it." She added as she took the glass her father offered her.

"I'm not surprised." Jack responded with a shake of his head. "They haven't won a game against McKinley in three years." He added, his voice growling slightly.

Nellie pursed her lips slightly as she swallowed her juice. "They'll just have to work extra hard I guess." She shrugged, pretending to be more interested in the subject than she actually was. She loved watching her brother's play and she occasionally liked to watch a game on TV with the family, but she hated just talking about it.

Jack nodded, his eyes clouding over slightly with determination. "It's that Jenner boy." He said, hostility lacing through his words. "He knows just how to put Reece off his game. Little Ass just like his father was."

Nellie frowned slightly and tried to pretend that she wasn't interesting in the subject of Blake Jenner. She knew that their father's went to Carmel and McKinley at the same time and they were rivals just like Reece and Blake were. It had always been that way, McKinley vs Carmel, but nobody ever really questioned why it was.

"Daddy?" Nellie questioned after a few moments of silence and her father turned to look at her. "Why do you think it all started? The rivalry?"

Jack shrugged. Not even he knew why there was a rivalry between the two schools; it had been that way before he started at Carmel twenty five years previously. "It's just how it's always been." He responded softly.

"Oh." Nellie nodded slightly. "Do you think it'll ever end?" She questioned again, hoping she didn't sound so eager. She wasn't quite sure why she was asking these questions, but Blake's face kept appearing in her brain and she had a sneaking suspicion it was because of him.

Jack shrugged as he drained the last of his juice. "Probably not Hun." He responded and put a hand on Nellie's shoulder. "Why are you asking about this? I don't want you involved in all of this rivalry business. It's dangerous."

"Just curious is all." Nellie shrugged and bit her lip slightly.

Jack looked at her for a few moments before he finally let out a sigh. "You should head to bed. Big day tomorrow." He said and kissed her head softly.

"Night Daddy." She smiled at him and walked up to her bedroom, all the while thinking of the chestnut haired Titan. He had made such an impression on her by being so different than what she expected that she found herself drifting off to sleep that night thinking of him.


Blake couldn't help the smile on his face as he woke up the next morning. He was positive it was because of the brunette that he had driven home the previous night. It was a strange feeling, but he thought it might just be Anticipation. He wasn't quite sure what he was anticipating. Was it to see the girl again? Maybe to get to know her better? He wasn't sure, but it made him feel all giddy inside.

"Dude!" Michael called out as Blake walked down the stairs and he saw his four best friends sat in the den.

"What are you guys doing here? I'm grounded." Blake frowned, but he took a seat next to Aylin anyway.

Charlie smirked, "Not anymore. Your dad took your mom out for the day which means you're off the hook for a few hours."

"What? How do you know what my parents are doing?" Blake was extremely confused at this point. "And how the hell did you get in here?"

"You left a window open." Charlie muttered sheepishly.

"For the record-" Shanna piped up. "I was not on board with this plan!"

Blake rolled his eyes at the blonde and turned back to Charlie, "I can't believe you broke into my house!"

Aylin laughed as Charlie shrugged his shoulders. "If you'd have answered your phone when we called then we wouldn't have taken such drastic measures." Aylin commented.

Blake shook his head and let out a deflated sigh. "So, I'm guessing you're not just here to laze around my house? What's the plan for today?"

"Well-" Michael started with a grin.

"Again!" Shanna exclaimed quickly. "I am not on board with this plan either!"

"Last night the team ran into some of the Knights-" Michael started, ignoring his girlfriends interruption. "They were pretty pissed about losing and were going on and on about how it wasn't a fair game, blah, blah, blah. So we challenged them to a rematch."

"It won't be official." Charlie added in. "But it's something else we can beat the fuckers at." He added with a grin.


"There she is!" Nellie frowned as she walked into the kitchen and found Reece sitting at the counter with Damian and Cameron, all three of them looking too happy after being out half the night drinking.

"Why are you all looking so awake?" Nellie gave them suspicious looks as she started making herself breakfast. "You were all flat out drunk last night."

Reece shrugged, "We're playing a game against McKinley today."

"What? Why?" Nellie asked quickly, completely confused. "You played yesterday!"

"Rematch." Damian shrugged as he sipped his can of coke. "After you left last night some of the team showed up at the party looking for a fight. We settled on a game today instead."

"Right." Nellie frowned, obviously not a fan of the idea. "I hope you lose." She said letting her gaze land on her brother. She had almost forgot that her brother had left her to walk home in the dark the previous night.

Reece let out a sigh and rolled his eyes, "Look I'm sorry Nells, I was pissed off. You got home so what's the big deal?"

"What's the big deal?" Nellie let out a dry laugh as she hastily buttered the toast that had just popped out of the toaster. "What if I hadn't found a ride Reece!? Anything could have happened!"

"But it didn't." Reece mumbled, rolling his eyes at his sister's dramatics.

Nellie glared at Reece, half of her wanting to tell him who she got a ride from just to spite him, but she knew that wouldn't be in Blake's favour. Her brother would probably try and kill him if he knew about it.

"Who'd you get a ride with in the end?" Cameron asked, hoping to turn the subject away from an argument.

"A guy." Nellie responded sharply, pursing her lips as she smirked at her brother. She wasn't going to tell him it was Blake, but she could sure as hell let him know it was a guy.

"What guy?" Reece hissed, his protective instincts kicking in. He was a dickhead almost all the time and has anger clouded his judgment 95% of the time, but right now, he was calm and Nellie was his little sister again.

"A guy that's more of a gentleman than you." She responded icily and bit into her toast.

"Wait, did he pick you up from the party too?" Damian asked, suddenly remembering he had seen Nellie at the party last night looking for a ride home.

Nellie smirked, knowing it was angering her brother further. "Mhm." She nodded. "That was after I started walking home because my idiot of a brother wanted to hook up with some slut."

Reece glared at his sister, knowing full well that she was trying to wind him up. It was working. "Whatever. We've got a game to get too." He snapped and stood from the stool he was sat on.

"Have fun!" Nellie exclaimed extra happily.

"You coming to watch?" Cameron asked as he slowly followed Damian and Reece out of the kitchen.

"Maybe." Nellie nodded, secretly hoping she would see Blake there.


Blake rolled his eyes as he walked onto the field, the team at his sides. They could see some of the Carmel team chucking a ball to each other on one side of the pitch as Reece yelled at them. "This is going to be so easy." Charlie commented with a smirk as they made their way closer to the opposing team.

"Well, Well!" Michael was the first to call out as they neared the team. "Ready to get your Ass beat again?" He smirked as the team stopped practicing and turned to face them.

"Keep dreaming Weisman." Reece growled, glaring at Michael as he pushed to the front of the crowd."You just got lucky."

"Lucky for the last three years?" Blake commented and his team laughed along with him.

They argued back and forth for a few more minutes before they finally started the game. It was rough and dangerous. With no adult supervision they played with no rules but their own, which was none. Which meant anything was game.

When Nellie arrived at the local field the game was already in full swing. She could make out her brother on the field, covered head to toe in dirt and rolling around the floor with who she could only guess was Blake.

"Is he fighting Blake Jenner?" Nellie turned to Cameron who was stood, watching the scene play out in front of them.

"I think, yeah." Cameron nodded, not taking his eyes from the two bodies on the floor throwing punches at each other.

"Why?" Nellie's eyes widened as she watched them. She almost wanted to run over and pull her brother away from the fight, but she knew better than to get in the middle of a fist fight.

"I don't know." Cameron shook his head, flinching slightly as Reece took a very hard punch to the gut.

"Isn't anyone going to stop them!?" Nellie shrieked, the worry coursing through her body was getting worse as she watched her brother take another hit.

"They'll stop eventually." Jake said as he came up behind Nellie. "Don't worry."

Nellie frowned as she snapped her head toward her friend, glaring at him slightly. "Eventually!? Look at them!" She exclaimed frantically and pointed to the two boys. Reece looked as though he was winning now, as he landed a punch into Blake's face stomach and he keeled over slightly.

"Hey!" Nellie jumped as she felt someone grab her shoulder and she turned around to see two girls with worried looks on their faces. "Tell your brother to calm the fuck down!" The dark haired girl snapped. Nellie had no idea who she was, but the other girl, the blonde - she recognized her as Shanna Henderson, the captain of the McKinley Dance Team.

"How about you tell your captain to calm the fuck down!?" Jake interrupted, glaring at the two McKinley girls.

Nellie frowned slightly at Jake. She didn't want to cause any other fights between the two schools today. "Believe me-" Nellie started and looked toward the two girls. "If I could stop my brother from fighting I would, but when he's in full on rage mode, nobody can stop him." She explained quickly, glancing toward the fight twenty feet away. It was getting a lot more heated and now player's were trying to pull the two boys apart, but only managed to get hit in the face too. Nellie knew what was going to happen, it would be a full on war between every single student here if it didn't stop soon.

"We've got to do something Aylin." Nellie heard the blonde mumble to the brunette. "Blake's going to get really hurt." She added and Nellie's eyes turned back to the fight where her brother was throwing numerous punches at the other boy. She could see him fighting back, but both boys were getting tired and Reece currently had the upper hand.

Without another hesitation she stalked through the crowd and toward the two boys, pushing anyone that got in her way out of it. "Stop it!" She yelled out as she got close enough and her brother's hand froze in the air while Blake looked up, his hand on his abdomen.


Like it? OK. So I wasn't sure how I wanted to end this. I was going to keep going but it was getting long so I stopped it here. A slight cliffhanger for you guys ;) But there was some blellie stuff in this one, so I hope that makes up for it! :D
