Soccer Match ~ Part 5

Emily

"The only reason I'm agreeing to this is because your going to buy me lunch later." I mumble to Mia.

Who was currently pretending to be oblivious to my complaining.

I walk with my hands in my pockets as Mia skips next to me.

We were going to a soccer match for our schools team.

And since I was the only person that did not have plans for the day Mia decided it would be a good idea to invite me.

"Why on earth do you want to go to a soccer match?" I asked Mia looking at her waiting for a response.

"I'm thinking of joining the soccer team." She muttered quietly.

I looked at her in shock before figuring out what to say.

"That's great!" I told her.

She smiled gratefully at me before turning away again.

"But I'm still mad at you for making me come with you though." I told her looking right at her innocent face.

She smiled even more and I grumbled a few questionable phrases under my breath.

When we got to the field I followed Mia as she walked up the bleachers and found us seats.

The game started and was somewhat entertaining.

I was mostly looking at the girl I ran into a while ago.

When I say mostly I mean I only looked at the girl.

I non stalker sort of way.

I think.

Even though I had never played soccer I could tell she was good.

The ball almost went through the goal and the girl just kicked it all the way across the field.

During the last part of the I could hear Mia getting excited but all I could see was the girl just staring into space.

And being the idiot that I am I yelled at her.

"Hey!" I yelled out.

She jumped slightly from her trance and looked down just in time to pass the ball to another player.

I shrunk back in my seat feeling very embarrassed and red in the face.

Mia looked at me for a second before smiling with an evil looking glint in her eyes.

"Somebody's embarrassed!" She burst out laughing.

"I am not!" I told her scowling.

She ignores my comment and continues her taunting.

I scowl harder and cover my very red face with my arms.

Mia just laughs and turns back to the game putting her arms around my shoulders.

I try to pull them off only to feel her tighten her hold.

I sigh in exasperation and lean back accepting my fate.

Just as I close my eyes ready to take a nap of sorts I hear Mia talk right into my ear.

"Games over!" She chirps loudly.

"Ow." I mumble rubbing my ear.

"Let's go get some food!" Mia yells once more dragging me away.

"I am never doing this again." I told the back of her head.

If only I knew how wrong I was.

Authors notes

Have I said before how much I love Mia?

As you can tell I forgot everything I know about soccer so this game goes by very quickly.

I think I finished this on time...

Next week is Grace's pov.

I will try to learn about soccer once more.
