Knowing People

Chapter1 "Met the wrong way"

8 ... People screaming my name ... 7 ... Camera Flashes everywhere ... 6 ... I'm halfway there ... 5 ... My hips are aching ... 4 ... My legs are hurting ... 3 ... Looking for a clear shot ... 2 ... I kicked it with all the pressure I'm feeling inside ... It's high enough ... It's long enough ... And ... 1 ...

"Goal!!! ... Carter High has won! Carter High has won against KingsVille High! What an unbelievable sight!" The crowd went wild when they heard those words coming from the announcer. I could feel sweat dripping down my forehead. My back hurts like hell, but atleast I still managed to score the winning goal.

I made my way back to the bleacher where a few players were just waiting to get a cup of water when the whole soccer team including the coach dragged me back to the field.

"Woooh! Great kick Doooooooominic!" ... "Weeeeeee Wooooooon!!! ... "You did greaaaaaat Dom!! ... Wow. My ears are close to bleeding. The next thing I knew I was already holding our trophy, and the crowd went even wilder than before. I just gave the boys a weak smile and handed them the trophy when Coach Mason threw me a bad look.

"What's wrong with you Dom? Heck you should be ridiculous right now you just scored our team the winning goal!" I really don't know what's happening to me right now. I kinda feel weird. "It's no big deal coach."

Coach Mason stared at me with his mouth half open when my eyes spotted Eric, my best friend who was yelling at the opposing team. "Yeeaaah! We did itt! What a looser you are KingsVille! You're weaaak! Weaak I say! Wooohh"

I kind of felt disappointed with him. It's not really necessary to throw such words to other people. I was about to confront him when I felt a hand on my right shoulder forcing me to stop. "Don't worry I'll handle it. Go and enjoy Dom!"

Coach made his way to Eric and dragged him away like he said. Thank God. Who knew what would happen if he kept on bragging our trophy to the opposing team. Besides, I think Eric already got himself under their nerves.
The other guys are also celebrating or should I say making out with the cheerleaders.
As soon as I got my stuff, I left the field and went to the parking lot. I don't know why I'm such in a bad mood today. I just don't feel like hanging out with people if he or she goes to Carter High, and I don't know why.

To get to the parking lot I have to pass through this Main building and go through a few hallways. Which was bad enough for me. Why? Because it's probably crowded right now with people from our school. I went down the stairs and passed the first hallway where a group of girls are sitting pretty while they drink their milk tea or something. A few moments later, their silence broke when the blonde girl started to scream making her drink spill.

"Oh my Gosh! Oh my goooooshh!!! Girls it's him! It's Dominic Jaxon!" Before I knew it, they were already beside me and started to hug me, squeeze me and the redhead took her cellphone out of her purse and took some pictures with me. A few moments later, more girls came .. And another group came. "I loove youu Dominiiic! You were so hot in the fieeeld!". Said by the girl who was pinching my cheeks.

I was surrounded. I couldn't even breathe because all the oxygen are outside the whole commotion. "Ladies please ... I cann-" I didn't get the chance to finish what I was about to say because the blonde girl, the one who spilled her milk tea a few moments ago, suddenly jumped towards me and kissed me! I tried to push her away but the more do, the harder she kisses.
People screamed. That kind of scream that will make your ears bleed because it was heard all over the building. I saw my pals who were just sitting on on one of the hundred tables that can be found in this building. They didn't do anything but laughed ang cheered us on as if I was enjoying the kiss.

I finally managed to pull away from her and leave the girl crowd so I took the chance and ran.
When I got to the elevator that will take me to the ground floor where the parking lot is, I thought that it was all over. As the elevator closes, I saw the girl crowd running after me! "Shii-!! ... Come on close! Close!" I kept on pressing the close button. "Dooom! babe wait!" What the? Doesn't mean she just stole a kiss from me it doesn't make us a couple!
