*Throws REALLY early chapter into existence* "Hola idiots" /j kinda enjoy<3

George POV- end of the day.

How the fuck did I manage to get someone ive had a conversation with in my first hour class? Let alone someone like Clay.

They had talked about random stuff basically the whole hour. It was mainly stuff about our family lives and sports, for instance he learned that Clay is the quarterback for the variety football team, George knew he was on the varsity team just not the quarterback portion.

Now it was the end of the day and the two had just walked out of the school together laughing about a random joke Clay had made in the locker rooms while they were changing into the sports uniforms, George in a practice skirt and crop top Niki had found him and Clay in his standard football uniform.

Upon splitting up to go their separate ways George met Niki in the center of the practice field while Clay went the opposite direction to the football field.

"Seems like you two had fun." Niki said with a smirk clearly noticing the smile that had not left since hium and clay had separated.

"Oh please, it's nothing like that, I'm just glad to have made this many friends on my first day nonetheless." George responded quickly with his hands in the air as if to say "I'm not guilty!"

"Ok surreeeee." Niki said clearly not convinced "Anyway let's get you to the tryouts shall we?"

"We shall." George said giddy while entertaining theri arms as they skipped over to where the other people trying out stood.

—----------------

George flew through the air, having tried out to be the flier due to his small size and a recommendation from niki, he would have to do this quite often.

It was about a week after the tryouts, that George obviously succeeded as well as his sister, his brother had also made not only the football team but was now the running back for the varsity team.

The football team was having their first game of the season today and the entire school seemed to buzz because of it. The cheerleaders and the football players had been let out an hour early so that they would have a few hours to prepare and game plan before the opposing team arrived.

George had made friends with some of the other girls on the cheer team not including Niki, Such as Hannah, and a girl who everyone calls Puffy due to her hair, they are both the other flyers, George being the lead.

Two hours apparently went really fast when cheering because the other team had arrived, Them wearing black and bright yellow uniforms as opposed to their own green and purple ones.

"Fucking hell! George!" This was a call from the one and only Clay, who appeared to be beant down next to someone with all the other players on the team surrounding them.

George quickly jumped off the stand he was standing on and raced down to the field where he found his younger brother on the ground in the center of the sea of sweaty boys clutching his ankle wincing in pain.

"Beau! What happened?!" George shouted, frantically assessing his brother's wound.

"I'm fine i swear, i just twisted it making a jump catch, but Clay i don't think i can play today." Beau said, turning to Clay.

Clay looked at Beau thoughtfully before turning into a walking panic attack. "What are we going to do?! Now we're short players and the team is already here!"

George thought for a moment before pulling out his phone and texting his sister who was now sitting across the field on her phone waiting for the incident to be resolved.

Gogity wogity

Vea! Can you come over here right now? It's an emergency!

Clumsy ass

Yeah omw

George could see his sister jump off the bench she was on and start jogging towards them, once she arrived he pulled beside him.

"I think I've solved your problem." George said motioning towards Vea.

"What?!" Clay and Vea shouted simultaneously. "George, she could get seriously hurt." Clay pointed out. Vea has recovered from the shock of being volunteered to play on a varsity football team. "I will not!" she shouted "I know for a fact that you have uniforms my size and that i know how to play AND that im fucking fast and cou;ld take my brothers place anyday." She stated confidently now mere inches away from Clay, staring him dead in the eyes despite the drastic height difference.

"If you're certain then here." Clay said shocked while throwing her brother's helmet to her.

"Dead certain." Vea stated while following behind one of the other players to the sports closet to find her a uniform.

Once everyone had gone back to what they were doing before and the coach helped Beau up on a bench and went to get him an ice pack, Clay pulled George into a tight hug.

"I know I was skeptical at first but you really saved our game George. I own you one." Clay whispered in his ear, not letting go quite yet.

At this point George's eyes were wide and his face felt like it was on fire.

"Your welcome Clay." He said as Clay pulled out of the hug, waved, and made his way back to a now uniformed Vea and the rest of the team.

George walked back over to Niki, face still red from his and Clay's previous interaction.

"George, you look like a radish, what did Clay do?" Niki said with raised eyebrows.

"He hugged me?" George shrugged as he walked over to the nearby locker room to both try and finish cooling down his still red face and get a drink before the most interesting game of the just starting season began, him cheering the loudest the entire time.
