When I Met You

Part One: C17 Hungry.

After I said that, I was internally smacking myself in the head. How could I be so stupid? I realized that I just made a deal with the devil. I made a deal that I really shouldn't have made. If he wins then I would have to do whatever he says. To be honest, I am very nervous and anxious as to what he was going to make me do.

This person was jerkface. This person wasn't the kind Joia I met. This person was cocky, despicable and very annoying.

I still cannot believe that even after the events of today, he is able to recover so quickly. It's merely unbelievable.

"Let's go you two! Both of you are trying to not get the other to score." Coach yelled and blew his whistle.

Alright Adriana, you can do this. One goal and you can get this guy off your back.

He came up to me while dribbling the ball. He did some tricks that were meant to throw me off guard and distract me. Ha, like that was going to happen. Chris taught me to never get caught off guard.

Then I stepped forward and mimicked his body movements so that he was blacked by me and had no where to go. We did that for a few minutes and then I realized that he wasn't going to get it past me so I decided that I would steal the ball.

I put my foot out and looked up and him but my feet were still concentrating on the ball. That's something else that Chris taught me; how to distract in attack. He must've noticed me looking at him because he looked at me as well.

I smirked knowing that my distraction was working. I looked into his eyes and did a subtle wink. His eyes went wide and he froze. I smirked knowing that my feet already had possession of the ball so I took it and shot the ball into the net.

I smiled to myself knowing that I won the bet. I turned around and saw jerkface scowling. I rolled my eyes in whatever. He'll get over it.

The guys were clapping for me. I smiled and jogged back to coach.

"Well, well. Someone was lying." Fred said,

I shrugged and looked at coach. "Adriana, he is right. Why would you say you don't play?" He said.

"I really don't, at least not now." I said, whispering the last part.

"You are good." He said. "Neymar!" He yelled. "You need to work on not getting distracted."

After that the guys were doing the same thing. One on one with me or coach. I got the ball in most of the time.

After that drill was done, the sun had already started to set. "Last thing guys!" Coach said. "We will now shoot in open net." They all nodded and lined up.

I was now sitting by my laptop looking at the screen and observing movements.

One by one the shot into the net and after about half an hour they were done. They took off the indicators and placed them back in the box.

"That's it for today, let's end with a cool down lap around the field." Coach said. "You too Adriana."

I nodded and stood up. I started running along the sidelines. I wonder what Tara, Xander, Chris and dad were doing. Based on the time here, I'm guessing that they are probably either sleeping or having breakfast. I really miss my family. I miss my nephew more because I was so used to seeing him almost every other day.

I felt a presence beside me. When I turned my head I saw jerkface running beside me. I rolled my eyes and ran ahead to get away from him.

The was no use of doing that because he caught up again.

Again I ran ahead getting away.

And again he was back.

Once again I was about to run ahead when a) I realized we were done the lap and b) I felt a tug on my arm.

I turned around and saw jerkface with a tired look on his face. I pulled my arm from his hold and started walking to the half line to grab my laptop and the box of indicators.

I picked up my stuff and turned to see him standing there. I rolled my eyes and walked past him.

"Adriana." He called. I ignored it and kept walking.

"Adriana." He called again.

I just kept walking until I reached my room. I unlocked it and opened the door.

"Adriana, I-"

"Look, we had a deal, which I won. Now leave me alone." I said walking in and shutting the door.

The time was now 7:00 pm. I sighed as I put my stuff on my bed and went to my closet. I pulled out mint pom pom shorts and a gray t-shirt. I then went to the bathroom and took a shower.

I put my clothes on. Then I took my contacts out and put on my glasses. My hair was out from my French braid so it was now wavy. I grabbed a clip and pinned half of my hair back so it was out of my face.

I then went over to my bedside table and grabbed my meds. I was about to eat them when I realized that I cannot take these on a empty stomach.

I looked at the time and it was 9:00 pm. Wow did I really take that long to shower...

I didn't know where I would get food so I decided to grab my purse, phone and keys and chose to head to town to get food. Obviously I did not want to go alone, so I planned on getting Ashley to go with me.

She did say she was going to tell me about the David situation tonight so why not?

I walked out of my room and walked to Ashley's. I knocked on the door and she opened it.

"Hey." I said smiling.

"Hi! I was just going to come over but I thought that you would be sleeping." She said smiling. "Anyways, you going somewhere?" She asked pointing to my purse.

"Actually we are." I said. She looked confused. "Did you really think I was going to sleep with an empty stomach?" I said.

"Actually I did." She said laughed.

Okay that was probably true. University taught me to eat proportionally but well at the same time. Don't get me wrong, I do eat, but I just have a smaller appetite than most people. I don't avoid eating, it's just that sometimes I would manage or I would be too lazy to eat. I guess I am just that weird of a person. But that was rare. I eat when I get the chance. Trust me I am not about the diet life. Eat what you want when you want! "Fine, I can't take my meds on an empty stomach. So I want you to come with me since you know this place better than I do, and can speak the language." I said smiling.

"Ah, so now you're just using me? And meds?" She said smirking.

I rolled my eyes playfully. "Ashley! Oh I have excessive migraines and it's the week where I get continuous migraines so I have to take meds."

"Fine hold on, let me just put on a sweater." She said walking in her room.

I nodded. Ashley looked so nice 24/7. Right now she was wearing a loose white tank and pastel orange flowy shorts. Her hair was in a messy bun.

She came back wearing a oversized knit cardigan and had her tote purse which was very similar to mine over her shoulder. "Let's go." She said shutting her door.

I nodded and we walked outside. "Your car or mine?" She asked.

"Mine is right there so we'll take that one." I said.

"Alright menina! Let's go!" She said laughing as I pulled out of the parking lot.

"Menina?" I asked.

"It means girl. Adriana, I am teaching you a bit of Portuguese so that by the time you leave you will know the basics!" She said with hope in her voice.

I just laughed.
