(Fast forward to end of football practice)

"Man Cooper, you almost beat me!" Brooklyn said wiping the sweat off his forehead.

"Almost!" I said smiling.

"Talk to you after?" He asked.

"Sure." I responded.

Why did he want to talk to me? Was it about football? Was it about another sport?

"Deep thoughts?" Alex asked.

"Um yes, no... Yes." I say confused since she took me out of my thoughts.

We walked into the locker room and I quickly showered and changed. I walked out of the locker room, and felt a hand on me.

Zoe.

"You know... I really don't wonder why your parents died? They probably couldn't handle you! Who wants a rude brat living under the same roof as them? Let me tell you ONE MORE TIME, stay away from Brooklyn or pay the price!" Zoe said in the meanest tone ever!

I started to cry and run down the locker room area.

"CHOOSE WISELY ARIANA!" Zoe screamed as I ran as quick as I could.

I finally got to the end of the locker room part, and I could see the sun. But I just kept running.

"Ariana?" Brooklyn said sitting right next to the locker room area.

Another tear fell from my check, I just kept running not even looking or breathing his way.

"Hey what's your problem?" Brooklyn says as he tries to catch up to me.

I keep running. I feel bad. I want to talk to him... But I can't. My fear for Zoe is stronger than my love for Brooklyn.

Wait did I just say 'love for Brooklyn'?

And with that, I tripped over the baseball that was in the middle of no where... Just my luck.

I fell really hard to the ground.

"ARIANA! ARE YOU OKAY?" I heard Brooklyn yell as I just stayed on the ground. "I'm calling my dad!" He said as he acts scared.

"No don't! I will be fine!" I say as I get up and run away again.

"Where are you going?" Brooklyn asks as I pass the entrance of the school.

I just keep running, hoping that as soon as possible, I can make it home.
