Stolen hearts

Chapter 26

My hearts pounding so hard. Adrenaline rushes through my veins. There is only 2 minutes left of the game. Score is 4-2. We are winning so far. It seems like me and Zane against all of them.

The other team has the ball. I get behind one of their offense players but the block me from getting to it. Zane moves to her other side wich distracts her. Letting me snake my way around her and steal the ball from under her feet. 1:30.

I do a 180 and go towards my target. The other goal! The other teams defense seems to swarm around me. There are no openings. My ankles are being attacked but I need to focus. I kick the ball up into the air, and hit it off of my head. I see Zane hit it off his head. Right to Cody who kicks it into the net. 5-2 game over!

The other team disperses into their locker room. Me, Zane, and Cody are soon swarmed around by our team mates and cheers. My legs throb and feel like they are going to give out any second. I am also in desperate need for some water. But I have a smile on my face non the less.

Glancing around I see Zane. And around his eye is black. Me may be Demi gods but we still bruise. I rush over to him and take his face in my hands. Pulling it down to eye level. I skimmed my finger over the area that was starting to bruise. He flinched at my touch.

"Bentley I'm fine. It doesn't even hurt........much." He gave me a small smile. I let go of his head and shook my head.

"Zane it looks bad!"

"Yeah and your legs look bad. You should get a doctor to check them. Your whole leg is purple." I looked down at my legs. Noticing for the first time that yes indeed my legs were purple.

"Yeah I've had worse." I gave him a small smile. He laughed and shook his head. Wrapped his arms around my waste and walked me over to coach.

"Bentley, Zane just the 2 players I wanted to see!" Coach opened his arms and embraced us in a hug.

"Coach can't breath!" My chest felt like it would burst. Me and Zane were being smushed together. Coach let us go.

"I'm so proud of you too, plus Cody.you guys have proven to me why I made you captains!"

"Ohh here I thought it was for my good looks!" Zane joked, making both me and coach laugh. Not that Zane isn't pretty, because he is H-O-T.

"You two going to Cody's after?" Coach asked.

"Yeah we are. First victory party. Never miss it. Best party of the year." We'll plus all my stuff is in the house even though I basically live with Zane.

"We'll get cleaned up and I will see you guys there!" Coach turned and headed towards his car. We did the same. Not bothering to take a shower. No one will be anyway

We got into Zane's car but he didn't put it in drive he just sat there. Starring at me. Like a weirdo.

"What Zane!" I may have somewhat shouted at him. But seriously he was just staring at me.

"Do you want to get ice for your ankles?" He asked. Looking at my legs.

"No Zane but you should get ice for your eye it's swelling!" I don't know why he's worried about me. He could barley see out of his eye. "Are you sure you want to go to the party?"

"Bentley it's just a black eye. I've had one before. I'm fine." He assured me. I still didn't do any assuring. Just made me want to know who gave him the other black eyes.

"Ok let's go before we miss the party then." Zane put his car into drive and we made our way to my place. Which isn't really my house anymore because we always stay at Zane's.
