The rest of the week went by with practices, homework and school. Today was Friday and tonight was the game. We could go home before the game but I didn't. I walked into the locker room with the rest of the team. All my bruises had healed and I didn't have any scars.
"Okay guys let's go out there and show those guys what we have been showing the last couple of teams." Coach always opened every game with a speech. We all nodded and walked out on to the field. I heard the cheerleaders yelling for us. I looked over at them, Alexis and I meet eyes. She smiled and I didn't even smile back I just looked at the bleachers. I saw the gang they were usually at home games but what surprised me was that Angela was in the first row of bleachers. She smiled at me and I smiled back. I kicked the ball to the other team and then the game was off. I ran toward the other team pushing people out of the way. I had gained some muscle since I started football but none of the gang had noticed since my shirts have always been big on me because they were Darry and Soda's old ones. I had just made the first touchdown of the game and it started to pour down raining. The other team had called a time out. I looked over to see Angela pull out an umbrella, man she is smart. I would never have though to bring a umbrella. Darry got up and made his way through the bleachers. I didn't get to see went because the game restarted. We managed to tackle them without them to getting a touchdown. While our offense and defense were changing positions, I looked up where the gang was sitting, through the ran I saw that they all had umbrellas. At least my brother is smart. The game continued through the rain and soon the game ended with the us beating them 35 to 25. They all let the field and made their way to their bus and we made our way to the locker room.
"Great job guys." Coach told us as me went to get our stuff. Coach made his way toward me and patted me on my back. "Great job Pony, I can't believe you scored every point in the game again. Have a good weekend."
"Thanks Coach." I walked out of the locker room and I had to go to the truck where I always met the gang. Before I got off of the field Angela came over to me still holding the umbrella because the rain had started raining harder even though I didn't believe that is was possible.
"Hey Pony you played a great game."
"Thanks for coming."
"No problem."
"Well I'm sorry you had to sit out in the rain. You could have left if you wanted to."
"I know but I enjoyed watching you play. Well I have to go Curly and Tim are in the parking lot."
"Okay so are the gang."
"Bye Pony."
"Bye Angela."
She took off toward the parking lot and I picked up my bag and headed toward where Darry always parks the truck. I saw the truck and walked over to them.
"Howdy there stranger would you like a ride?" Two-Bit asked after he rolled down the window. We hadn't been putting anything in anyone each other's food or drinks.
"Well Howdy to you too. Yea that would be mighty fine." I told him in my most country accent.
"Where ya' headed?"
"I'll go where you go."
"Ponyboy get in this truck before you get sick." Darry broke in to my and Two-Bit's conversation. I opened the door and climbed in beside Two-Bit. Dally, Soda, Steve were all in the backseat and Darry, Two-Bit , Johnny and me were in the front. We arrived the at the house and all of us piled out of the truck. The gang was dry; I guess the umbrellas were a good idea. The gang were all hanging out in the living room.
"Ponyboy Curtis take that wet shirt off."
"Okay Darry." I took off my shirt without thinking about it.
"Gosh Darry I think you have someone that's going to give you a run for your money." After Two-Bit said it the whole gang looked at me. Soda got up and walked over to me.
"Man since when did you get a six pack."
"Haha funny Soda. I'm going to take a shower."
"Alright." I went into the bedroom and then took a shower. I went back into the living room and watched TV with the guys and soon I was met by darkness.
