There's going to be auditions for Swan Lake. I've been practicing for weeks as much as I could.

   Oddly enough Kade's been texting me more now too. We stayed up late the other day just on the phone until we both would fall asleep. We didn't talk in the halls.

London started talking to me again. I got to meet her new best friend Eden. She's cool.

I've been constantly training. Every day.

    It's been harder, mom's boyfriend has gotten worse. He cheated on her last week and then when she blew up on him he took it out on me.

   As I felt the warm water fall on me from my shower head I looked down to the bruises. Why me? As I'm running my hand through the suds still in my hair. Why isn't mom stopping him? She just stays...

   Coach has me stressed the fuck out. We're doing conditioning and the guys are already giving out. Well most of them.

    We were running laps when I heard BJ and Eli bickering.

     "It's not football! It's soccer."
"Football.. soccer.. it's the same thing."
"No it isn't! Football has a quarterback and all those other things. And they have a FOOTBALL!"
   "I don't give a fuck, it's football."
"Soccer you idiot!"
"You're a fucking twat BJ. Shut up."
"Soccer." BJ muttered under his breath.

Eli shoved him using his body.

    I heard the other guys laughing. I turned around glaring at all of them.
"Shut the fuck up! All of you. Coach has us fucking running cause you dickheads aren't fucking running."

   "Didn't you finish your laps mate?"
As soon as I heard that damn British accent I lost it on him. I ran for the soccer balls and kicked them at whoever wasn't fucking running their laps.
