The Football Player..Book 1

35

Mary POV...

I hug Jen and Joey again before entering my car.

I hop inside and start the car.

I drive back home with Cody's playlist he made on my phone awhile back.

I tap on the steeling wheel and rap along to some.

I finally reach home and sigh.

I walk up to my room and lay on my bed.

I look at the sweatshirt Cody gave me. I stare at it and smile.

"Why is this one so important to him?" I think. I grab it and a letter falls out of the pocket. I grab the letter and look at it. It has my name and a heart next to it.

"Your gonna read this and be confused to why it sounds so cute or romantic. I copied some off the internet. Sorry, thats bad. But first off I just wanna say that what ever you wanna do while I am gone, is fine. As long as its not something stupid. You can date a guy, or do stuff with another person. I wont care, that much. But just don't hold back because I am gonna be going through your mind.

I wrote this the night you guys helped me pack. After you left I wanted to kiss you so bad. Before I leave, I need to kiss you. If I didn't...I'm sorry.

Theres no way you can hold onto something that wants to go, you understand? You can only love what you got while you have it...this was a big chance for me and I had to take it. I will be making history maybe!!...but I will know your gonna be my number one supporter. :)

I wanted to give you that sweatshirt...
Your probably wondering, why.

Lets start off first, it was a sweatshirt I got in Fresh man year. It was one of my first things I got from my coach. He always told me to have something for football every year. The first year he gave me the sweat shirt to start off my year, it got more serious sophomore year. Thats when he found out I was good.

I kept onto that sweatshirt and had it in my closet far away from my others.

One of my ex tried grabbing it but I never let anyone use it. I never even used it. I made sure of it!

I gave this sweatshirt to you only because...your someone I can trust. I wanted you to have something that meant a lot to me, so there you go Mary.

Wow, I love it. I want to see you take selfies and tag me in them with that on, okay? Haha...

I will text you and everyone else when I get off the plane. Ill miss you and Joey the most, but love all of you guys the same. Well maybe you a tiny bit more, haha. Anyway, I love you Mary...keep in touch. :-)? "

I stare at the letter. Then look at the sweatshirt.

"Hmm..." I mumble and stand up. I place the letter on the desk and grab the sweatshirt. I lift it to my nose and breath in.

The mixture of cologne, his house, and new fabric was brought to my nose.

I quickly pull it away when I felt a tear stroll down my cheek. I walk over to my bed and put the sweatshirt on the nightstand next to it.

I walk into my closet and start getting ready for school.
