"Ancient Greece was the beginning of western civilization. See, In Greece, they didn't have professional sports or Wheaties boxes. So the Athletes competed for another reason. Anybody?" Miss McKay teaches.
Goldberg raises his hand. "Falafels?"
"Alex?"
"Pride." I looked to my left and saw Luis smiling at me.
"That's right. The various city-states waved their flags and wore their home colors proudly."
"Did America always dominate?" Fulton asks.
"No America wasn't around back then. Don't forget that compared to other countries America's still young, still forming it's own identity. America is a teenager just like you."
"Like us?" Jesse asks
"You bet. A little awkward at time, but always right there. On the verge of greatness."

LUIS'S POV
I was happy I got Alex in my dorm. I've had a crush on her since the day I saw her.
We all got to our dorm and there were only 4 beds. So Alex didn't have a place to sleep.
"Just sleep with Luuuiiiisss" Goldberg and Ken yelled making kissy noises.
"Yah nasty." Alex laughed.

"Sure."
