 “You are to bring an extra change of clothes. If you don’t you will be docked points. The first couple weeks are going to be testing. Running, lifting, benching, squatting, jumping and all the things inbetween. You are to give it all you got and no less. I will be able to tell. If you are good enough you can join a sport. After the first couple weeks you will do things like basketball, football, volleyball baseball and softball.” Mr. Chub is going over all the rules and stuff.

 

It has been a long day. In art we had to work on that project and it’s due thursday. The other class, Health. was bad we had a pop quiz on the video that we watched.

 

“Okay, I’m splitting you into teams and you are going to do the workouts for the next couple weeks.”

 

“Matt and May.”

 

A bunch of kids that I don’t know.

 

“Rose and Tye.” Isn’t he that hat popular dude that the girls were talking about

 

“Good luck, and don’t fall for him to fast.” May smiles and walks over to a frowning Matt. I go to the bottom of the bleachers and Mr.Hunka walks up.

 

“Hi, I’m Tye.” He holds out his hand with a smile.

 

“How nice it is to meet you.” I smile and he laughs.

“Rose that’s a pretty name for a pretty girl.” He smiles and I frown and roll my eyes. Turning so that I’m standing next to him I look at the teacher. I really don’t want to look at the stuck up player.  

 

“Okay, chat and get to know what the other person can do.” He smiles at Tye. I turn to Tye.

 

“Okay, what can you do?”

 

“Well, I can do lots of things. Such as breathing and talking and……” He stops when he sees me glaring he smiles at me. The bees are getting there stingers ready.

 

“Okay, fine. As of right now I am the fastest runner in the school. I also play basketball and football. How about you?”

 

“I’ve never really seen how fast I can run. But I like to play basketball and football. I usually play with the servants and stuff.”  

 

“You like to play football?” He raises his eyebrows.

 

“Yeah, I barley know how to play.”

 

“You know I could always teach you?” I shrug. Thinking of him seeing me fail. 

 

“Oh and I could get Matt to help.”

 

“Help with what?” Matt says overhearing.

 

“Teach Rose how to play football” I shake my head as Matt and Tye make plans to cream me.

 

“Okay Rose. Mee us at the football field after school.” Tye says coming back.

 

“And then what, you’ll cream me”

 

“We’ll see.” I roll my eyes as Tye tryes to think. Or at least look like he’s thinking.

“Okay, do you know what to do?” Tye and Matt look at me after they tell me how to play this really over complicated game of football.

 

“Yeah.”

 

We get into position. Me and Matt against Tye.

 

20 minutes of getting pounded later. I have not been able to even get past Tye to run. This is stupid. I can do this, but I’m tired now. I could figure it out if I wanted to.

 

“Come on, Rose. One more time.” Both Matt and Tye look down at me as I lay in the grass.

 

“Fine, but don’t tackle me so hard this time.”

 

“Hey, what can I say? I did tell you I was the fastest kid in the school.” I roll my eyes and go to get up. I find two hands outstretched in front of me.

 

I look at them both and then do a flip to land on my feet then walk in between them. We get into position and I shut my eyes what can I do. I try to get around him and he’s there.That’s the problem! I can’t get around him. But they never said that I can’t go over him. The hard thing will be running once I get over He’s a big dude it will be hard to get over.

 

Then we start. He charges at me. I jump up and do a flip off is back I land and I take off. I can hear his steps behind me and I pick up speed. Tye lets out a growl I know he’s close and I have to keep going. Faster, faster. I make it to the touchdown line and turn to find Tye coming full speed at me still with a wicked smile on his face. Matt has a shocked look on his face. I jump up and push off of his back. I look and he is on the ground.

 

I look up and see Matts jaw is just about hitting his knees. I walk down the field to Matt and give him the ball. I look back and see Tye get up. He has dirt on his face and clothes.

 

“Run” I hear Matt say next to me.

 

“I’m going to get you” Tye says as he starts running full speed down the field. I see Matt take out his phone and I run I go onto the track and hear the thump thump of his feet on the pavement behind me.

 

Crap, Crap, Crap.

 

I am tired, but if he catched me. I am done for. That makes me run faster. My feet are flying across the track. I have never ran this fast in my life. I let out the last of my energy and go faster. Somehow I am still going. We have been around the track once already. I glance back to find Tye five feet behind. Sweating and panting. I stop. Jump to the side and let him barrel past. He stops and faces me, panting.

 

“How in the hell…” He puts his hands on his knees.

 

“Why are you so mad. Is it because I got a touchdown?” I start singing you can’t touch this. He busts out laughing. Rolling laughs that won't stop. By this this time Matt has already made it over and is laughing to. I can’t help but join in to.

 

“Dude, you are never going to live this down.” Matt pats Tye on the back.

 

“Shut up. I’m not even sure what happened.”

 

“What happened is you got creamed by a girl.” I jump in victory.

 

“You will pay.” He growls.

 

“Will I? Oh, guess not you can’t catch me.” I laugh and Matt does to. Tye just watches me with a weird gleam in his eyes.

I walk into the room and plop down on the bed.

 

“Well it looks like you're tired.” Matt says as I shut my eyes.

 

“Odiviouesey.” I mumble against the pillow. He laughs and I start to lose myself to the realm of sleep.

I wake up to the sound of birds and someone shaking me. I look to see Matt.

 

“Hey, it’s time to get ready.” I blink my mind fogy.

 

“What?” He laughs.

 

“It’s time to get ready for school.”

 

“School!” I sit up hitting Matts forehead with mine.

 

“Oww….”Me and Matt moan out.

 

I slide out of bed and go to get ready. I step out of the bathroom and grab my bag and go down stairs. My belly growling like a bear. I stop in the kitchen and eat cereal. My belly full I go to the door. Matt stops me and puts his hands on my shoulders

 

“Are you okay?” He is so sincere I lean in and hug him. He is warm as he hugs me back. I am too tired to fight my emotions. He puts his chin on my head. “Well if you’re hugging me, then you are not okay.” I laugh.

 

What am I doing? I’ve not even known him for a week and I’m hugging him. I step back and run up the stairs. My gym crap. I grab some shorts and a tank top and meet Matt at the door I walk out and hop in his truck. So much for driving myself. Matt looks at me and drives to school. He keeps glancing over.  I hop out and go to class. I sit next to Tye in that class. Go figure.

 

“Did a bus hit you?” He looks at me.

 

“No, you did.” I put my head down. Trying to forget the moment between me and Matt. He laughs.

 

“I will get you back.” He whispers.

 

“I’m sure you will.” The class starts and I fall asleep. I wake up to a shaking and see that Tye is waking me up.

 

“Class is over, you're lucky that everyone else is asleep to.” I yawn and go t o get up but fall over into Tye.

 

“Sorry.”

 

“Oh, no problem.” He smiles and I realize that he’s still holding onto me. I shiver and he lets go.

I go to the rest of my morning classes then to lunch. I put my head on the lunch table and almost fall asleep.

 

“Rose, are you okay?” Katy asks as she comes over and sits in front of me.

 

“Yeah.” She raises her eyebrows and then claps her hand over her mouth.

 

“Is there something going on in between you and Tye? He has been watching you all day. And that’s saying because he watches a lot of girls and he’s mostly focused on you.”

 

“Well, I out ran him.”

 

“Outram who?” Matt comes to sit next to me.

 

“Mind your own business.”

 

“Oh, Tye?”

 

“There is no way that you out ran him. He is like the flash.”

 

“I have it on video.” Matt takes out his phone.

 

“You do?” Me and Katy says at the same time.

 

“Yeah, I had to. It was funny and Tye was getting mad.”

 

“Tye was getting mad about what?” Tye who was walking by just happened to hear that last part. And now his boy band had us surrounded. A lot of them kept looking at me when the thought I wasn’t looking.  Me and Katy make eye contact.

 

“Oh, only the fact that Rose kicked your butt.”  Matt dares him to say different. I take a bite of my sandwich. The guys then look at me and then at Tye. Saying ohhh.

 

“What?” He says looking at the boys. “That was only because I was tired. I bet I could beat you now.” He says looking at me. Wow, he was really arrogant.

 

“And now I’m the one tired.” I look at him.

 

“I’m just kidding.” he walks away, but his eyes tell another story. Matt pats my back and I wiggle away.

 

“What just happened?” May and Morgan ask spotting Matt.

 

“I truly don’t know.” Katy says winks at me.

 

I get up and dump my food into the garbage. I sit in the hallway in front of my locker. I hear footsteps and know who it is.

 

“Your an arrogant butt face, aren’t you?” Tye chuckles and sits next to me.

 

“Nah.” I roll my eyes. “Good job last night, you really did cream me.” He
