After practice, we walked to the locker room. I looked at Adam who turned the other way. What the hell is wrong with him? I rolled my eyes and sat down next to Russ.

"Somebody get a shovel and bury me right here." Goldberg let his body fell to the ground.

"It's easy to play like what? Starts with a W!" Charlie yelled.

"Wussy's." I said.

"That's right. Wussy's on offense and defense, defense, defense." He yelled again.

"The Eden hall academy requires you to maintain a C average to compete. I believe that's a bad rule. I don't want any C players on my team. It's B's or better or you'll be riding the pine pony. Now you got 15 minutes after each practice to clear this locker room. You got homework to do. Oh and one more thing. Stay clear from varsity until we play them in the jv varsity showdown. You got that?" Coach walked out.

"15 minutes? Man I cannot move." Russ sighed.

"Hey guys look, he posted our positions." Connie walked to the board with everyone following.

" I don't believe this. I play left side, not right." Fulton said.

"Third line? Man that's a major diss." Russ said.

Adam walked to the board and looked at me and Connie. "I'm not even posted."

"Yeah you are, Adam Banks, third line center. Varsity?" Connie said.

"You made varsity?" I asked confused.

"I made varsity?" He looked around the locker room and I saw Charlie's face become sad.

"That's the great thing about being goalie you know. You always know where you stand. I just mind my business, take my place between the pipes." Goldberg said.

I looked at him and laughed. Go Julie.

"What?" He said surprised.

"You're riding the pine pony pal. Julie's one, you're two." Averman pointed at the board.

"I'm back up? How can he do this to me? What am I, a chop liver?" Goldberg was mad.

"Who's captain tibbett?" Dwayne asked.

"No that's captain TBD, to be determined." Guy explained.

"Oh I see. Well no I don't. That's your job Charlie..." Dwayne looked at Charlie.

Me and Charlie went to my place to help grandpa with the shop. We asked Adam to but he said he didn't have time. Loser.

"Hey grandpa! How's everything going?" I asked as I hugged him.

"Fine. How was your first day?" He asked.

"It was a nightmare. Especially our new coach. Have you ever heard of Ted Orion?" Charlie asked Hans.

"Yes he left the North Stars when he was still in his prime." Hans said.

"This guy is no duck."Charlie rolled his eyes and looked at me.

Hans also looked at me and than looked back at Charlie. "Maybe you guys should show him the way."

"He doesn't exactly seem open to new learning experiences."

"The question is, are you?" Hans asked.

I gave Hans a small smile and walked into the house. I let my body fell onto the couch and Charlie sat down next to me.

"Want to order a pizza or something?" he asked.

"Yeah sure, pepperoni please." I replied.

"Go ask Hans if he wants something." he said.

I stood up and walked back to Hans.

"Charlie is ordering pizza's. Do you want something?"

"Sure. I'll have a pepperoni please."he smiled and turned back to the skates he was fixing.

"Got it." I walked back to Charlie who had company. Adam was sitting next to him.  Why was he there? He acted weird at school and now he's in my house. I was actually looking foward to a day with Charlie.

"What are you doing here? You said you didn't have time." I asked as I sat down.

"Charlie invited me."Adam said.

I looked at Charlie who looked down.

"What's wrong?" Adam asked.

"Nothing is wrong. Its just that.... nevermind.." I answered.

"No what's your deal?" he sounded kinda mad.

The bell rang. Charlie sprinted to the door and took the pizza's. I looked at Adam and walked to the dinning table. We ate our pizza's and after dinner, me and Adam walked to my room to talk.

'So what's going on with you?" he asked.

I sat down on my bed. "You acted weird and mean to me today..." I sighed.

"That's not true, you were loud and annoying the whole day." he went quiet. I looked at him with widened eyes before tears started falling down my cheeks. He sighed and sat down next to me.

"I'm sorry. You know I didn't mean that. Please don't cry." he grabbed my thighs and pulled me close to him. I looked him in the eyes and started smiling a little.

"It's impossible to be mad at you when you're so cute, Banks. I thought you were mad at me because of the other night..." I said.

"What other night?" He asked confused.

"The night that we almost... you know."

"Oh no Ki please. Don't think that. It's just, I had a bad day today okay?" I smiled as our lips filled the space between us. We started making out. His hands started on my back but ended up grabbing my lower back.

"I want you." He whispered.

His hands grabbed the bottom of my shirt and pulled it off my body. I hesitated but continued to kiss him. I pulled of his shirt.

My body felt warm on the inside. I felt safe. It felt like I was home. Adam Banks feels like home.
