'First game away from home, game three, it's fine, my cuts are long gone, I have great make up, apparently great hair, I have stretched, and I can do this. Ellie just breathe' I thought to myself as I followed Lea out to the field as we skipped through the dark tunnel ' Bells High Eagles vs Fayette High Tigers. I travelled to Georgia, from California on a four hour flight, we stay the weekend and it's going to be fun... I hope'
The roar of the crowd sent the usual nerves down the back of my spine but once we got onto the field my nerves settled down, the season was just starting and we have won every game and this one will be no different. The bright lights made me settle right in, we cheered as our team ran on.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It's half time, we are tied at 9 – 9. We cheer and form pyramids but I stop when I see my musketeers waving me over and a girl takes my place in the pyramid.
"What, I'm kinda busy... Shouldn't you three be with your team?" I ask as I huddle with them
"Do you know where we are?" Bjorn asked
"What do you mean?"
"We are in Georgia" Jacob added
"At Fayette High, playing NFL... ring any bells?" Jayson asked
"I don't get what you mean" I say
"BOYS" Coach called
"Coming Coach" they all called out in unison and ran to go meet with him
"Ellie" Lea called me over and we continued to do tricks, that's when they all ran out again, here comes second half.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
'10 seconds left, fourth quarter, down by six points, Tigers scoring at 21 points, Eagles scoring at 15 points. We need a touchdown to tie and two touchdowns or touchdown and field goal to win. Come on boys'
"Let's go Eagles" We cheer
