I wake up and drag myself out of bed. I throw on sweatpants and a tshirt. I throw my hair in a messy bun not really caring.

I walk out to my truck and drive to the feild. I put my stuff into the locker room and walk out. I see the boys and Hunter. I see Hunter do a small smile at me. I ignore him and run onto the track to jog. "Hey Mercedes, are you not gonna eat with us," Jack yells at me.

I shake my head and stuff my earbuds in. I jog for a while then go in the locker room to change.

~~~~~~
I look at the clock 1:23. Almost time to go. "Teachers please excuse the interruption, we need the high school football team and cheerleaders to go to the locker rooms" I stand up and head to the locker room. I see grace in the locker room fixing her hair. I go into one of the stalls and start changing. "Yeah, Mercedes thinks she is so cool being a wide receiver," I roll my eyes the cheerleaders always gossip when I'm in here.

I go and get on the bus. I sit by myself in the back. I usually sit with Hunter... I sigh and turn my music up and stick in my earbuds.

~~~
Finally we arrive. I get off and slouch off the bus. "Okay cupcakes," my coach yells, "go get your butts on the field and show them what your made of!"

I jog onto the field with my team. We stretch and warm up. They call the captains and one of the happens to be Hunter, ugh. We are kicking off first.

Coach talks to the defensive team, while the offense team stands on the sidelines. I sigh and stand as far from Hunter as I can. Our defense let them score a field goal so it's 3-0 them.

After the balls punted we run it to the 42 yard line. My group runs out onto the field. Coach calls a play. I get ready in position. "Hike," I go out to my spot. Hunter looks at me and throws he throws it too high.

"Make a better catch next time," he says smirking. "Uhm, if I recall right, you threw the worst throw ever just then I did just fine," I say glaring at him.

"Whatever," he says rolling his eyes. "She's turned you into a monster," I spit at him.

"Guys not now," Alex groans. The rest of the night Hunter doesn't even look to throw it to me. The good thing is we won 23- 17.

After, the game Grace runs into Hunters arm and plants a kiss on his lips for a LONG time. I roll my eyes and head to the bus. I trip over something and fall catching myself with my hand. "Opps sorry I didn't see you there," Grace says smiling. I hold my wrist and glare at her.

That hurt like crap! I sigh and storm off the bus. A couple minutes later I fell someone standing by me. I look up and see Hunter, "Your wrist, okay?" He ask with a concerned look in his eyes.

"Like you care," I say looking back out the window. "I do," he says back harshly. "Yeah that's exactly why you left me for Grace," "Mercedes, I will always care about you," he says softly.

I ignore him but feel my cheeks get warm. I know I'm blushing. I hear him sigh and walk off. Gosh I miss him so much the way his smile is so comforting, his eyes give me the warm feeling, his hugs make me feel safe..... wait what am I saying!

No I don't care about him.... there's no way I could have feeling towards him in any other way...
