I told her to go get cleaned up then I was gonna take her and her mom out to celebrate.

When her mom couldn't go due to work I took Maggie out for a celebratory lunch and a little shopping and ended it with a relaxing massage.

"I can't thank you for all you've done for my daughter, the hard work and effort you've put in is more than I've ever witnessed with her old coach. May she rest in peace. To be honest I didn't think Maggie would get far with Coach P. But then you started coaching and now she is in the trail one step from the big Olympics and I am beyond happy and proud of her and it's all thanks to you" Ms. Townsend says

"When a girl or young lady like Maggie has the dream and potential to set goals and works hard to reach them I am there to encourage them to shoot for the stars and never give up" I replied

"Thank you again. And thank you for taking her out shopping, for lunch and message" she says

"It's no problem at all" I replied

She smiled in thanks before I bid them both goodbye and headed home.

For the life of me, I couldn't stop thinking of Lance Tucker. I mean he is a major asshole but a damn sexy one and he fucking knows it and he uses that to his ability to get women and other things.

I begged my heart not to fall. I told my heart I just met him. I can't fall in love. This isn't some Disney princess cartoon. But my foolish heart didn't want to heed my warning and fell anyway.

When the trial day came, It was just Maggie and I who went.

I watched as Maggie and the others prepped for the whole thing and I saw Lance in his USA color themed outfit that he never seems to not be wearing.

I stood there and watched girl after girl do their trail run and I knew some of them had great potential in them. The girl that Lance was coaching wasn't bad at all. I knew she'd be Maggie's greatest competition.

When Maggie's turn came up I stood there and smiled as she hit every single move perfectly all the way to the end.

When she finished I handed her some water and a protein bar before we watched as the judges announced the girls who will proceed on to the Olympics.

"Congratulations to our women's national qualifier in first place Maggie Townsend," the judge over the intercom says

Maggie threw herself in my arms and hugged me as she got all excited. The reporter came over and started asking her questions while I was getting her things together.

After she finished the interview she told me she was gonna go tell her mom before rushing off.

"Congratulations Matthews. your girl placed number one. But from here on out Maggie's gonna come train with me and the rest of the girls starting next week" Lance says

"In your dreams Tucker" I replied

"She either comes to train with me or she's off the team," he says

"Listen here pecker neck. She is mine, I will coach her, and I will take her to Canada where we will slay the competition. She's not going to you and she is not off the team. So get your head out of your ass and fuck off" I tell him

"Hey I say who is off and who isn't, I was appointed women's team head coach just yesterday" he advertised

I looked at him as I grabbed up mine and Maggie's items.

Then started giving him a sarcastic clap.

"Does Tuckie Wucky wanna cookie wookie?" I asked

"No, I don't and it's Tucker not Tuckie," he says

"It's whatever I feel like calling you" I replied

"Like I said she either trains with me and my girls or she's off the team" he replied
