"what moment"

Willa walked out the grounds, it was free period for them so as tradition the teams would gather around their place by the field.

She sat next to Niki who was talking with Minx and Puffy. The team greeted her and she sighed in relief. She loved spending time with her girls. As she joined the conversation her eyes found Clay walking out of the school messing about with Noah and Sam while Max and Carver walked behind him slowly.

She watched with soft eyes as the moment in art class replayed in her head. It was as if Clay felt her look. He sent her a smirk making her eyes roll.

The girls giggled and she turned to them. "What's so funny?" she asked. Niki giggled as Emma raised an eyebrow at her. Tina chuckled, "We just witnessed something in arts earlier." She said. "What?" she asked.

"That you and a certain football captain had a moment." Rachel said. Willa raised her eyebrow at the girls, "It was not a moment-" "Yes it was." Niki teased. She groaned and plopped to the ground. The sun on her face. The girls giggled and Willa huffed. "Please don't." she said.

"What's so wrong about it?" Hannah asked her. She opened her eyes and saw the girls staring at her with big grins. "Everything." She said. "You're being irrational." Puffy said. Minx rolled her eyes, "You're being a pussy." She said.

The girls laughed and Willa pushed them to the ground. She was about to say something when she heard the voices of her brothers. She looked over and raised an eyebrow, "Don't a break a window Toms!" she yelled.

Tommy scoffed and scowled at her, "Don't call me that!" he yelled and stomped away leaving Toby to laugh with his tall friend who smiled amused. "Please look after him Tubs!" she teased.

Toby blushed and walked away pulling his friend away. This made the girls laugh, "You're such an embarrassing sister." Maddy said. She shrugged and they decided on talking about try outs instead.

"A little birdy told me something about art class." Sam teased his captain. Carver laughed smirked, "Oh yeah. Emma said it was quite the show." He said. Clay rolled his eyes and crossed his arms as they sat on the bleachers.

"There wasn't a show and they're reaching. I just borrowed some paint and helped her-" "And you both are still alive?" Max asked jokingly. Clay rolled his eyes at the most silent team mate.

"Would you guys rather have to deal with our dead bodies?" he joked. Noah raised an eyebrow at him, "Does this mean the formidable pair will actually happen?" he asked. Clay scoffed, "The day that happens I'll probably break a bone." He joked.

His teammates rolled their eyes and started to chat with each other. This left Clay with his own thoughts. He replayed the moment in his head, he had to admit he enjoyed the silence they shared. Where all that he heard was her humming and them sharing some paint. It was enough to make his stomach do flips.

This immediately made him sit up and shake his head. Carver looked at him confused, "You okay?" he asked. Clay gulped and nodded. Noah smirked, "Ooh it seems Miss Willa Baker finally wormed her way in our captain's heart." This opted the team to holler and tease him.

Clay groaned and stand up, "Shut up and go to the lockers. We have try outs to prepare for." He said as he walked away. Him passing Willa and her team. He gulped and looked away. Shaking his head, he can't not now. Not again.
