*ੈ✩‧₊˚           ODESSA AND sam were both insanely competitive people, the factor being no secret to those around them. both had always been apart of a challenge, being professional sports people from the ages fourteen and fifteen. the pair always liked winning, but both hated losing more than they liked winning.

they both stood in the middle of the matilda's home field, with a soccer ball being the only thing separating them. sam stood with her hands on her hips and a smirk "i'll go easy on you"

odessa shook her head, her dark brown hair that was tied up high with a ribbon showcasing as it swung side to side "don't make me look like a pussy, sammy bear. my team is tearing yours apart"

"like you tore your ACL?" sam questioned with a raised eyebrow "at least my team doesn't have a fault living in their team captain. i'm all ready for this shit baby" sam confidently pointing down her body.

"you're quite a cocky person for being five foot four, samantha" odessa tilted her head.

"your half an inch taller than me, and those boots have a small insole platform" sam replied, pointing down the hot pink boots odessa wore.

"technically, it's an half inch different without boots. but to you it would seem like a full head and a half" odessa placed her arms over her chest "do your best, sammy bear. we're better."

sam hummed, her eyes adverting to the odessa's teammates she had chosen for the small match between the pair. ellie, kyra, mackenzie, alannah and hayley. sam had mary, katrina, caitlin, emily, and cortnee, both teams having roughly equal playing fields. ( apart from odessa's team having odessa )

"if you're so confident, you can start with the ball" sam moved away, the smirk still painted on her lips "come on sunshine, show me the skills you've got"

odessa already knew she was letting the team down, but she was stubborn enough to believe she could do alright. she took a deep breath, softly starting off the game with a kick towards kyra.

odessa's defence team consisted of alannah and ellie being the back line and macca taking the spot as the goalkeeper. hayley and kyra were the two players that started towards goals and odessa was just there.

sam's defence was katrina and cortnee with caitlin being her goalkeeper, herself and mary were towards the goals and emily played in the middle. like odessa, but emily actually knew what she was doing.

kyra ran foward with the ball, sneaking around cortnee but coming face to face with katrina. she kicked the ball back over to odessa, katrina went to run at the ball. finding it an easy target. odessa held up her hand "dude give me three to five business days to remember how to kick this fucking thing"

odessa kicked it towarfs hayley, higher than she expected to. hayley bumped the ball with her head easy, letting it fall to her feet before she sent the ball through the fingertips of caitlin.

hayley cheered loudly, flipping sam off along the way before giving odessa a double hi-five and a small hug.

sam raised her arms "the fuck did i do to you?"
