BREAK 4 ME (CARRINGTON DIARIES 5)( Completed)

51

BANKS
"Sir it's standard that you stay here longer"The nurse says."I'm fine.I had some rest and have been taking medicine.Im doing a lot better".

"But sir-"."-Banks sit the fuck down"Mia calls out.

Beside her was Victor and Luisa.Chaos was in Luisa hand meowing at me.I frown and sit back down in the bed.

"Thank you ma'am"The nurse says before walking out the room.

"So how are you feeling?"."Ready to go back in my own bed.Its nothing".

Mia crosses her arm and says "It is not nothing.You could've died.The doctor said it was an allergic reaction.What are you allergic to?"."Eggplants".

All of them look at me shocked as Luisa swears."You knew you were allergic to Eggplants and you still ate Nemo's pasta?!?!Are you crazy?".

I look down and say "You wouldn't understand".

"Then enlighten us.Because I would hate to tell your mother about this"Victor warns.

"I didn't want them to think I was being difficult.Its obvious that they don't like me and I well..I wanted them to like me".

Mias eyes widen as Victors mouth goes wide."Banks that is seriously dangerous!You could've gotten hurt!"Luisa says.

"But I'm fine aren't I?And my teammates don't hate me for being picky"."When have you ever cared about what people thought of you?"Mia asks.

I clench my teeth and say "Since I realized that this is the real world Mia.You're smart,beautiful and confident.Guys love you.You have nothing hiding in your past.But me??They will always know about all the bad things I did to Vaughn and how much of a psychopath I used to be".

"Who fucking cares?"Victor says.

Mia nods in agreement and says "You think I give a shit what people think?They don't know you like I know you.And to me?You have changed in these five years that we have been apart.You are considerate of other people,You're caring and you adopted a fucking kitten off the side of the street your first night here?!When you care about things you put all your effort into it".

"And I've known you since you were 17.And trust me when I know you care about it futbol"Victor says."I do.I love it".

"Then who cares what they think?"Luisa adds.I smile softly and say "thank you".

Mia kisses my cheek and says "I'll always be there for you,Preppy.We made a promise to each other remember?"."Sadly I'm not here for good news"Luisa says.

She smirks and says "the team expects you to be back in on Monday ready to practice for the first game of the season against Arsenal".

I nod my head and say "I'll be ready".

Luisa smiles at me before holding Chaos up."Chaos also wanted to tell you that he loves and that you better not try to leave him"."He said that or was that Mia?".

Mia hits my shoulder and I smirk."So are you going to cheer for me at my game".

"I'll cheer for the team on Tuesday,Carrington.".

I shake my head and say "So lame"

"Carrington!".

I look up and Put my phone in my locker before jogging out to the field.The second I look out and smile brightly.Nothing like the stadium, the people and the cheers.

The Adrenaline ..now this is why I love futbol.

"Stop daydreaming"Benji says hitting my shoulder.

I nod my head and walk over to the rest of the team."Carrington your second string.Joani you're in"Coach says.

Of course.I had to earn the respect of my teammates before I get into the starting lineup.

Taro smiles at me and I look away."Yes coach".

He starts going over the plays and I walk over to the bench.I sit beside Francesca the PR Trainer."How are you feeling?"she asks me."Good".

"Nervous?".

I smile softly and say "A little".She smiles back and pats my shoulder."You will be fine.Just go out there and show them what you're made of".

I nod my head as she walks away.

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

There was 4 minutes left and right now we're tied.I thought this was going to be a very easy game but Arsenal defense had skyrocketed over the offseason.It was tight which left only our top attackers able to give us some goals.

And I haven't even touched the field.
Arsenal-4, Milan-3

I narrow my eyes as I watch.If I don't get in this game,we are going to lose.

Coach sideyes me and says "Can you score us 2 goals in 4 minutes".

I tilt my head and smirk at him.
"Easily"I say.

He calls a time out and they run over.Nemo has 2 goals while Aaron had one goal."Joani you are out.Carrington get in".

"what?Coach me and Nemo can score the last two".Coach narrows his eyes and says "Did I ask you that?".

Taro glares at me as I take my sweatpants off and my hoodie.I stretch my arms and Nemo looks at me."What are you thinking?".

I look at him shocked and he smiles."You're a member of this team and you used to be the captain on Liverpool.So you have to have some idea of how to counter their defense right".

"Yes.I think we should do Attack 23".He thinks before nodding his head slowly."That could work.It would be unexpected".

"That's risky.You think you can pull it off"Benji asks."If I can't I'll past it to Taro".

Taro was our starting goalie but he would be playing the midfield today.

Taros eyes widen and he clears his throat."At least you know"."Alright you heard him.Attack 23".

I run in the field as the crowd goes wide.I smile softly before running over to my spot.

No one knows this but I have a secret routine.I bend down and write Mia's name on the grass before standing. Up.

Ive been doing it since I was 10 years old and no one knew a thing.Mia asks me about it all the time but I never tell her what I write.

The ref blows the whisper and I take a deep breathe.Okay this is where you show people what you are made of.

What can be so hard about that?
