CHAPTER 12

Don't forget to vote and comment

I tie my sneakers and get my duffel bag full of my training uniform and head out of the locker room. I get to the soccer field and sit by the top bleachers by the edge. Richie notices my presence and waves at me making the soccer teams attention turn to me. Dang this boy. I try to slide down the bench but he makes it worse by calling me.

"Baby doll!" He shouts and I internally let out a cry of frustration

"B!" Sean shouts and I give up and sit up straight

"Hey" They both shout in unison then look at each other and let out laughs. The coach appears from the bench and look towards me and a smile appears on his face

Please don't call me

Please don't call me

"Bryce dear come here"

I mentally curse Richie and glare at him as I go down the steps unwillingly. He smirks at me and I mouth 'Fuck you' to him making him beam more. I get to coach and he hugs me.

"It's been long!" He exclaims and I smile "You should come say Hi more often"

Why would I fucking do that do now? Just because you talk to my parents doesn't mean I have to talk to you. I mentally say of course

"I've just been pre-occupied with classes, exams and practice" I say trying to sound into the conversation.

"I'm sure there are many free lessons you could pass by or during practice with the boys" He says and I resist the urge of wiping the spit from my face. I spot the soccer team behind coach trying to hold their laugh due to the position that I'm in at the moment

"I'll make sure to pass by during some of the practice sessions"

Maybe never. I can't with the spit and the tuna and onion smell. Did I mention that he eats raw onions? Well yeah he does and it's still freaking fresh. I shudder at the thought and blink my eyes a few more times. How'd Matteo survive with this?

"Well, we gotta leave coach, we have a project due tomorrow" Richie says throwing his arm around my shoulder engulfing me in his sweaty body.

Why me? What did I do to deserve this?

"Us too coach. Assignments due tomorrow" Aiden one of the top soccer players says and smiles looking at me. Yeah I'm into soccer I know some of the players I mean who doesn't?

I'm gonna kill these guys.

But mostly Richie

"I know you all want to leave so do so. We had five minutes till practice was over anyways. Don't forget to be here on time tomorrow" Coach says and they all yell an 'Okay' before walking to their locker rooms

Once were far away from coach they burst out laughing and I lay on the wall next to me giving myself support

I turn to the guys after taking some few gulps of air and glare at them.

"I fucking hate you all" I say and they continue laughing "This is all your fault. You know he talks as he spits and you had the audacity to wave at me" I stomp on his foot and he drops to the floor laughing

"You should have seen your face. It was like you completely gave up on life" Aiden says holding back a laugh

I narrow my eyes into slits "Y'all just decided to watch me suffer right?"

"We missed you and coach did too. Welcoming?" Michael, the mid-fielder says. I used to practice with them cause of Matteo but ever since he left, I just stopped. I talked to probably one or two of them that much and ignored everyone else. I really do ignore people do I?
