Today was game day. How did I remember? Cause I got texts from everyone, including Jake's team telling me.

My phone buzzed and buzzed, till finally picked it up from the nightstand and read the messages I seemed to get.

Game day! Get ready to kick ass! 3 Leah

Can't wait for later! Get ready guys! ~Jared

Hope you're ready to lose this year! Jk, love you. Hope your morning's going good. See you soon. –Jake

Get pumped! We are going to win this year! (Sorry Bella!) - Seth

Hey, just letting you all know, neither team contacted me. Emily made sure of it. =/

Dude! Get ready! This is our time! ~Embry

Good luck today guys! Love, your cheerleaders. * Emily and Kim.

Morning babe. Can't wait to see you today. Don't worry; I made sure the guys didn't cheat. I love you and be ready to go down. ;) Xo Sam

Get ready to go down!- Collin

Be afraid, be very afraid. You all are going down to the ground. Watch your backs. Mwahaha. - Quil

Pshh, we is gunna kick ya'alls butts! Sigh-a-nara! ~ Brady

I laughed at everyone's, but when I read Brady's I totally lost it. I burst out laughing and through myself back down on my bed, responding to everyone. This was really going to cause some havoc.

It was going to take me a while to respond to everyone, so I sent out a mass text to my team mates first.

Hey guys!

Cant wait to kick ass today!

We aren't the ones who are going to lose this. Get pumped and ready to win.

Focus on the game, but not too much. U need to focus on your studies too. =)

See you right after school, and review the game plans so they are stuck fresh in your head.

Love you all!

Xoxo Bella

After I sent that, I responded to everyone else individually.

Hardy har-har Jake. Don't you think you better be nice? Cause when we kick your asses you are going to want to suck up to us after all we will put you through. =)

Be happy Jake. You will get to learn from your mistakes. Hahaha. Jk, I love you too!

My morning is awesome! Hope urs is good too. See you as soon as I can!

Xoxo Bella

Oh Sethy. Don't you worry about us. Do well today! But don't get too cocky.

Xoxo Bella

Haha, ouch Paul, what did she do? Have you on lockdown? Glad you haven't been biased though. Love you, and tell Emily thanks!

Xoxo Bella

Thanks Girls! Have fun cheerleading today if I don't get to see you before the game. Love you both!

Xoxo Bella

Hey, morning! I will see you at game time! Haha, glad my threat worked. I love you too, but I think you guys will be the ones going down…or well eating dirt. =)

Xoxo Bella

Oh Collin…so young and so naive. Just wait. You will never know who will be the champs. ;)

Xoxo Bella

Went a little over board there ay Quil? The evil laugh was a little much. But…as I told Sam, I believe you guys will be the ones going down…or eating dirt. Just a fyi.

Xoxo Bella.

When I was finally done responding, I got out of bed and ready for school.

I grabbed a drawstring gym bag and packed some extra clothes for the game and such.

After I was done, I made sure I had everything and then grabbed an apple and was out the door.

Classes were going unbelievably slow. It was unbearable.

Every two minutes I seemed to be looking at the clock, and every five questions, I seemed to get picked for an answer.

When dismissal came, I practically ran out the door. Each class went by exactly the same and I was getting tired of a boring day.

Lunch wasn't anything special either. I grabbed something from a bakery near by and ate while I read some chapters for homework.

When I was done, I headed back to campus for my last few classes.

The last part of my day was not too bad I guess.

Instead of paying attention, I took out the wrinkly pieces of paper that held the game plans from the gym bag.

I looked at what we drew and memorized each step over and over to make sure that there weren't any flaws.

When I was satisfied, I stuffed the paper back in the bag and paid attention to the rest of the lesson.

The day finally ended, and it was time to leave.

I was out of the room and outside the building in a matter of minutes.

Without thinking, I started the bike, kicked up the kickstand, and was off to drop off my bike.

When I rode back to my place, I parked my bike and teleported to Sam's.

I figured he would be finishing up work and then go straight to Jake's house for the game, so I trotted down the stairs and towards the door.

I found a note stuck to the door addressed to me.

Hey babe,

Just wanted to say good luck before the game. Remember not be a sore loser when we win.

We are going to be kicking your ass's this time. I mean after all…they do have me on the team. =)

Make yourself at home. What's mine is yours ;)

Love you.

Sam Xoxo

I smiled at his thoughtfulness and laughed at his corny comments of winning, but I rolled my eyes at his comment of 'what's mine is yours'. We got into a fight about that with money. Oh heavens, he drove me crazy that day.

I dwelled on the memory for a second before taking the note off the door, and sticking it in my bag.

The old door creaked as I swung it open, and banged when I shut it.

I made my way to the woods and ran up a tree.

Time to have some fun. I told myself.

I leaped from tree to tree, flying through the air.

I kind of felt like a super hero or Tarzan.

I began swinging off branches, and doing flips in the air. It was freedom.

When I saw the opening to Jake's place I quickly did my last flip against a tree, before jumping down and landing on the ground with a perfect finish.

"Hey guys." I said running over to the huddle. Jared, Kim, Brady, Seth, and Emily were all standing the side of the house talking.

Everyone looked over and smiled.

"Hey Bella!" they all said.

We all talked for a second and I laughed at Emily and Kim.

They were actually going to cheer. They had the big microphone things and were pumped.

Seth was kind to me as we talked about the game. When it started to become a bunch of separate conversations, I just talked to Seth and we spoke about our days.

We both agreed on how slow the day went, and he laughed at my embarrassing run in's of the day. I told him about how many times I got called on to answer questions and I had no idea what the question or answer was.

Finally, after almost everyone came out to the backyard, Jake arrived from the house with Sam in tow.

"Ahh, and here come the later taters." I said, trying to act annoyed.

"Oh you love us." Jake huffed.

I rolled my eyes and stood there debating it with myself.

"Well…I don't know. I mean, I guess…if you are talking general. But it's a very…-"

"-detailed and complicated answer?" Sam guessed.

I looked up, kind of forgetting he was there. Usually it was just a 'Jake and Bella' thing, where we banter like crazy till someone stops or just huffs in annoyance cause they can't win.

"yeaaaa." I said drawing out the word.

He looked at me smug and I rolled my eyes, turning away from him. I opened my mouth to ask when we were going to start the game, when I was beat to the bush.

"Detailed?" Brady asked.

"Complicated?" Collin asked right after him; referring to my explanation with Jake.

"Well at least it wasn't the same word at the same time. We are making progress here boys." I murmured.

Everyone laughed and the two boys blushed.

"But to answer your question. Yes, detailed and complicated."

Every guy from the pack looked at me kind of crazy. So I looked to the girls and they gave me a nod of understanding.

"Oh come on!" I said, acting like this was simple. (Well, it kind of was.)

"You guys think you are perfect." I muttered.

"And girls don't?" Quil asked.

I narrowed my eyes at him and pointed my finger at him. "We will get to battle of the sexes another time."

"But really? Detailed AND complicated?" Seth asked, thinking it wasn't even possible.

I rolled my eyes at all of them and groaned.

"Come on girls. You have to help me here." I told them.

The girls looked over the guys slowly and then went back to me. "Their hopeless in understanding." They said together.

They laughed amongst themselves at their exact response, which caused me to groan again. Way to leave a girl behind.

"Come on Bella, explain it to us." Jake smiled.

I narrowed my eyes at him, but found I was overruled by the ratio of guys.

"Ugh! Fine. Well…I don't know. You can like a guy. Or love him." I said, from the matter of question.

"But it's another thing to actually Love him love him. Like a madly in love with him, or a true love type of thing." I tried explaining. I could see how lost the guys were, so I thought for a second.

"You can like or love someone in general. Their actions, or words, or interests, or even what they represent. But to actually love someone; It's different. You can't just like the person. It has to be more than that. It has to be deeper."

Everyone looked at me like they were starting to get it, so I continued.

"So when I said my answer would be more detailed and complicated when answering Jake's stupid comment of me loving him I just meant there are more ways to think about it and answer the question."

"So then tell us." Paul said quite amused.

I laughed and shook my head. "That is for a wayyy other time. Like years and years from now. And I would need like months to explain it all." I teased.

"So who's ready to start a football game?" a voice questioned.

We all looked over to the back door and found Billy being wheeled out by Charlie and Sue.

"Dad!" I yelled and ran for him.

He caught me in his arms and hugged me tight. "Bells." He whispered.

"What are you guys doing here?" I asked, looking at the adults.

"Well, sue here told me about a football game you all were planning. And well…we couldn't miss it. Especially with a Bella Sam face off." Billy let out.

We all laughed and I rolled my eyes. I let go of Charlie and bent down to hug him. "It's not that big of a deal."

Sue, Charlie and Billy all seemed to laugh.

"Yea, well we will see who wins and then look back on that comment." Charlie supplied.

"So we didn't miss anything did we?" Sue asked as I hugged her.

"Nope. We didn't start yet. Bella was just finishing telling us that love is detailed and complicated, especially when it comes to loving Jake apparently." Quil blabbed.

I rolled my eyes and looked at them.

"I didn't necessarily say that. Jake was just be obnoxious and he said 'oh you love me' and I said 'generally yes…but the answer is detailed and complicated.' I didn't mean I didn't love Jake."

Billy and Charlie looked at me with furrowed brows, but Sue nodded her head with agreement.

"I hear you there girl." She raised.

I laughed as all the guys looked at her like she joined the crazies.

"Oh come on. You boys are so complicated and detailed. And loving you is exactly the same thing." She argued.

"Whatever Sue." Billy said, shaking his head. Jake and the pack began to fill everyone in about things while I stood by Sue, watching them.

"It's a girl thing." I whispered to her. She laughed out loud and nodded.

"True that Bella, true that."

When everything was explained, we all went to go our separate ways to our teams.

Before I could get very far, I was lifted off the ground and kissed on the cheek from behind.

"Hi." Sam said sweetly as he put me back down.

I smiled up at him, raising a hand to his cheek. "Hey."

"Get my note?" he asked.

I felt my smile grow and a nodded. "Yup. Cute. Reallyyyy." I said sarcastically as I shifted in his arms.

He gave a throaty chuckle at my comment and I kissed him to shut his stupid laughter up.

"Good luck." He said, pulling away.

"Yup. You too." I told him, walking to my team.

We all huddled in a circle with our arms around each other and bent down.

"Alright. You all ready?" I asked.

I got a round of 'yea's' and 'sure's' and I shook my head.

"No, I asked ARE YOU ALL READY?" I shouted at the end.

They are gave a huge grin and began to shout.

"HELL YEA!"

I stood up laughing. That wasn't what I expected. Jake's team looked at me funny, so bent back down to get serious.

"Alright guys. Jake and his team think they are going to make a comeback this year. We gunna let that happen?" I asked, raising my voice again to get them pumped.

"Hell no!" they shouted.

"And Jake's team thinks that by the end of this game, they are going to get to boss us around. Is that gunna happen?" I yelled to them.

"HELL NO!" they shouted louder.

"That's right! Now let's go play our best and kick their asses out there!" I cheered.

We all hooted and hollered in excitement and then broke apart.

We lined up at the line and began our first play. (A/N: Sorry, I don't know football very well. So this might not be very detailed.)

"One…Two…Three…hut!" I yelled and then threw the ball to Jared.

Jared caught it and began running to score.

We all ran to defend him and made sure he got passed Jake's team. I tackled Quil to the ground while Leah got Sam, and Embry and Brady got Seth and Collin.

"Touchdown!" Paul hollered.

I could hear all the guys shout and laugh in excitement. I quickly ran up to Jared and gave him a high five.

"Play #1 down." I whispered. He looked at me and nodded with a smile.

The rest of the afternoon pretty much went like this. Except the score changed…quite a lot I might add and Sam and I got into it many times.

"Score?" Jared huffed.

"11 to 10. Bella's team up." Paul yelled.

We all huffed in exhaustion. Jake wanted it to be a win by 2 and I swear he made that rule so we didn't just slaughter his ass in the beginning of the game.

"We so kicked your asses!" I yelled to Jake.

"Oh come on Bella! Win by 2. That's how it should be." Jake said back.

We fought for minutes before Leah and Jared pulled me back, while Sam and Seth pulled Jake away. The score was 7 to 6, my team being up.

Billy, Charlie and Sue all talked about it, and decided we had to win by 2 because we never set a true number limit."

Jared, Leah, Brady, Embry and I all got into another huddle, talking over our last few plans.

"We don't have any more drawn out plans." Embry heaved with exhaustion.

"What do you mean?" I asked him.

"Well, if we don't re use a plan, then we don't have any more to play." He said.

I groaned, along with the rest of the team. We were all tired, muddy, hungry and quite sore.

"Wing it." Leah suggested.

Everyone looked at each other and then me. I shrugged. What the heck? Why not?

"Sure. Go for it."

We all talked a little more. Right before we had to get pumped up, Jared and Leah both looked at me. "We'll take Sam. Just go for the gold." They smiled.

I laughed and nodded. Sam and I ran into some issues with each other. Let's just say I don't know if I want to talk to him for a while. Haha.

Touchdown here I come… I kept thinking to myself.

We began chanting our last chant and then walked to the line.

I stared Sam in the eyes and watched as he smirked.

"Just a game baby. Remember that." He said.

I held back an eye roll and maintained a straight face. Yea, just a game I am about to whoop your ass in.

I heard someone yelling hut hut and I ran.

I didn't know where to run or the place I should be in, but I ran.

Jared had the ball, and passed it to Embry as Collin attacked him. Embry ran and went to throw the ball to Brady when Seth caught it.

I didn't know what to do. I looked at Jared and Leah but they were too in the game.

Leah was running to catch up to Seth, which didn't go unnoticed by him. Seth threw the ball and Leah jumped up in the air and caught it.

Sam was going right for her, so she threw it high up in the air.

Who knows where she was throwing it to, but I immediately ran for it.

Quil had the same idea, so I pushed myself to go the fastest I had ever gone.

Everyone was racing for Quil and me.

I felt like the football was spinning in slow motion. I could almost see it rotating in the air. I began to slow down my pace and watch as the ball spinned.

I must have been so focused on the ball that I wasn't paying any attention to where I was going.

"Bella! Watch out!" Embry and Leah shouted.

I looked away from the ball and looked all around me.

Seth was right behind me, getting ready to push me to the ground, while Sam was about to tackle me from the front.

I panicked. I went with my first instincts; I closed my eyes and jumped in the air hoping they missed me.

And they did.

Seth jumped to catch me but fell to the ground, as Sam leapt for me with his arms wide.

As gravity began pulling me back down to the ground, I quickly ran over Sam's backside and down his body.

When I looked back for the guys, Sam and Seth were in a pile on the ground.

I looked all around for the ball and saw Quil had it in his hands right by their end zone.

He was looking for anyone open to pass the ball to, and I smiled. He was distracted.

I quickly ran for him, running as fast as I could go.

Unfortunately, I began to slow down and move a different direction as he called for Jake.

"Jake! Jake!" Quil shouted.

"I'm open man!" Jake called back.

Quil threw his arm back and we all watched as the ball spun.

Jake was right by his end zone. There was no way any member from my team would be able to make it over there to catch Jake in time.

Breaths were held, but I didn't stop going.

Right as Jake was about to catch the ball, I jumped up as high as I could and caught the ball.

Everyone was stunned, and I took that chance to begin running.

Jared, Leah, Embry and Brady were all stuck on defense. So it was all up to me.

I began running, with Jake hot on my tail. I darted left and right, making sure I didn't let my moves become a pattern.

Sam must have gotten through the crowd of our defense because he was about to trap me again between Jake.

I knew I couldn't jump in the air because I knew he would be ready for it.

I let out a screech and did a dive with the ground. I didn't know what else to do.

I hit the ground and went into a summersault to get back up. When I stood up, I noticed I still had the ball in my hand.

What?

"Go Bella! Go!" Brady shouted.

I looked behind me and saw Jake and Sam tangled in each other.

I laughed at them and then ran for the end zone.

It was like I could taste touchdown. It seemed almost too real.

I could see the end zone and felt like no one would stop me.

A hand darted out to get me, but quickly retracted. I looked over to my left and found the hand was Seth's and it was pulled away by Leah.

I laughed at Leah's concentrated face, but when I looked in front of me again, Quil was coming for me.

I panicked, but found Jared coming to tackle him.

Quil jumped in front of me along with Jared who was bringing him down to the ground.

I yelped, tripping into the air because I ran out of ground to run on because of their massive bodies.

I was about to end up going face first into the muddy ground till I quickly tucked my legs into my body and did a flip.

I landed my ground, with the ball still in my hands.

My back was facing the ground, and when I turned around, everyone's faces were stunned.

Massive grins began to spread across my team's faces, so I looked down at the ground and found we scored the touchdown!

"Wohoo!" Jared yelled.

Leah came and pulled me into a hug as we screamed and chanted "We won!"

Our happy parade was interrupted as Jake began making a fuss.

"That's not fair! You can't just go and do a bunch of flips and win! It's not how you play football!" he protested.

His whole team began to make a fuss, including Sam.

"Get over yourselves! We won. Fair and square. Just because you couldn't tackle me doesn't mean that it wasn't fair we won." I said.

The adults, cheerleaders and Paul came over.

"Paul! You saw that. It wasn't fair." Jake said.

"Yes it was!" I yelled.

We all looked at Paul and waited for him to decide.

He whispered something to Sue and she nodded.

Sue then whispered to Charlie and he listened. Then he whispered something back to her, but she quickly responded.

He ended up nodding too, and then told Billy.

Billy nodded and whispered something to Charlie.

Charlie laughed and whispered to Sue.

"Oh would you gossiping girls please share the news?" I said antsy.

They all gave me a raised eyebrow and Kim and Emily laughed.

"Its fair, son" Billy said to Jake. We all looked at each other and then waited for a better answer. Did that mean we lost?

"Bella's team won!" Sue shouted.

Our faces became ecstatically happy and we all shouted.

"Wohoo!" Jared shouted and twirled a laughing Kim in the air

"Yes!" Brady said, pumping a fist in the air.

"Hell Yea!" Embry yelled.

"Ahhh!" Leah and I shouted, jumping up and down.

When we finally calmed down, we turned back to our opponents and narrowed our eyes at them.

"Payback is going to be a bitch." Leah said.

We all laughed at her comment except for Jake's team. They seemed to swallow hard.

Everyone congratulated our team.

"Bella, that was so cool how you dodged everyone at the end." Kim gushed. I laughed and blushed.

"Thanks Kim. And nice cheerleading." I told the two.

They both blushed while everyone laughed.

"So is there going to be any problems with the happy couple?" Billy asked, referring to me and Sam.

I looked at him, giving him the 'look over'. He was covered with mud and looked disappointed that my team won. Then I factored in all of his comments and actions in the game and debated with myself.

"Eh." I said half joking while giving him a look.

Everyone laughed and Sam just stood there and sighed.

"So…we won!" Brady exclaimed jumping up.

We all laughed and smiled. "Yes we did."

"So what should we tell them to do first?" Leah asked the team and turned to me.

I gave an evil smirk to them and smiled.

"Oh, they are in for it." Billy muttered.

"Can't agree more with you there, old man." Charlie said.

"Who you callin' old?" Billy asked joking.

"You." He said simply and dodged away from Billy's attacks.

I watched as the old men had their little quarrel behind us and chuckled.

"Soo…what are we going to do?" Embry asked looking at me.

I thought about it for a second before I heard Billy and Charlie come back up behind me.

Jake and his team stood in front of us, waiting.

A thought crossed my mind and a smirk grew on my lips.

"Ever heard of hell, boys?" I asked all of them.

They looked at me and nodded slowly.

"Good, cause you are about to enter it." I said grinning like an evil fool.

Leah hugged my side and laughed at my comment. The looks on their faces were priceless.

Jared and Embry came over to slap me a high five while the adults stood in the back chuckling.

When everyone settled down and waited for me to give them an order, Brady made his way over to me and wrapped an arm around my shoulders, smirking like an idiot.
