Lacrosse has Hot Boys!!

Chapter 33, The Finale

Kara's POV

I'm cold. Deeply freezing on this crummy bus that has no heat. The lacrosse team, the coach, and I, are all on a bus to Macksburg. Cuddling myself up against Shawn on the small bus bench seat. Most of the guys on this bus are either asleep, talking, or listening to their music. This will be our final tournament. I don't know why we have such a short summer league, but it is what it is. I just hope we win this one. Pushing my body closer to Shawn, I turn my head to stare out the window. Trees, homes, and cars, zoom by creating a big mush of color altogether. What felt like forever on this crummy bus soon came to an end, once we finally reached Macksburg.

"Wake up guys! Grab your gear, and follow me to sign you guys in." The coach yelled to us. He got up and exited off the bus.

I poked Shawn in the arm and looked at him to wake up from his nap. He shifts for a bit and then stretches his arms up in the air to wake him up more. I stand up in my lacrosse team sweatshirt and team shorts. Shawn then stands up and grabs his gear over his shoulder. He then walks sleepily off the bus. I step off the buss behind Shawn and follow the rest of the team behind the coach. After a few minutes of talking to the tournament directors, we were then sent off to field number two to play.

Game #1

The other team, blue, has the ball and is running towards our goal. Lucky for us, Luke is a great goalie. The blue team moves the ball around us back and forth to each other before sending it to their right attack men, shooting it at our goal. Luke gets set and watches it hit his stick, catching it before it goes into the goal. Everyone backs up and heads down the field to the blue team's goal. Luke pulls back and sends the ball towards Hayden.

"Hayden over here!" Ethan shouts. Hayden throws him the ball where he is positioned near the fifty yard line.

"Ethan, Number 3!" I shout. I move over in front of him, along with Hayden confusing the other team for a brief second. Looking up to Ethan, he passes the ball to me. I move closer to the goal, while the other team starts hitting me with their sticks. I see Colton open and pass him the ball. He catches it and sends it into the goal. Score!

The game continues on with both of us fighting and knocking each other down. We finish the game with us at 4 and blue team at 3. It was seriously that close.

"Quick drink of water and then get back out to start game two." Coach said.

I grab my water bottle, taking a few chugs of water down my throat.

"Kara! Come warm me up?" Shawn asks. I smile at him and take one more drink. He walks off with a ball in his stick. Setting my water down I go to put on my glove when I notice the bruise on my wrist is a bit bigger than normal. Well, it's not hurting badly. Guess everything is fine. I shake it off and slip my glove on before going to warm up Shawn.

Game 2

"Go cover him!"

"play number 2!" the coach yelled from the sidelines.

the other team, Redland, has the ball and is close to scoring. they keep passing the ball over our heads before we have ti.e to react. this team is just like ours. I hustle my butt up to hit number 20 before he throws the ball. the ball fumbles out of his stick onto the ground rolling away. I try to push the other guy away to reach the ball. moving closer to the ball, I lay my stick out to pick it up when the next thing I know, I am on the ground. Number 20 had knocked me down, and he's headed to our goal with the ball. I push myself up on my feet and charge after him. He passes the ball off, but Danny interferes and passes it off to Ethan. He takes down the field and scores it in.
