Hayley's POV
The following week...
Today is baseball try - outs.I am so damn nervous.Caleb is trying out too so that I'm not alone.Also he loves the sport.
"ALL STUDENTS TRYING OUT FOR THE BASEBALL TEAM MAY BE DISMISSED EARLY!" The kind secretary lady announces as I rush out of the classroom and to my locker.I grab my stuff and Caleb then leave.
We head to the locker rooms to get changed into our gym clothes.I tie up my hair into a bun,tie my shoe laces extra tight,grab my bat,and I rush to the field."Caleb,you're seventh,and Hayley you and are eighth!" Coach Connor says.Caleb bats and he hits the ball.I cheer for him and clap happily.I was up next and al I focused on was the ball.I hit it hard and run all the way to 3rd base."Great job,Hayley!" I hear Caleb yell.I blush as I wait for the ninth person to bat so that I can run to the home plate base.I run to home plate quickly.For the rest of try - outs we pitch,bat some more,catch,and learn how the rules work,and how to run from base to base really fast.
"Okay everyone,listen up!We just got all of your scores that Ms.Davis just took from what you all learned today and she will post who made the team in less than 20 minutes so hang tight!" Coach Conner says.
"Do you think I made the team,Caleb?" Ava asks Caleb batting her eyelashes at him and smirking."I didn't really see you play but I hope everyone makes the team!" says Caleb.She giggles to her friends Ella and Nancy quietly."Caleb,are you going to my party on Saturday?" Ella asks."Sure,can I bring a plus one?" he asks and Ella nods."I'll be your plus one Cayyyyyy-leeeeb" Ava annoyingly says."I was going to bring,Hayley,here I'm sorry..."Cayyyyyy-leeeeb says.I smile and Ava gives me a death glare and a dirty look.I shake it off as I see students moving to the board where they announce who made the team!

I read through the list and I see my name appear! "HAYLEY WE MADE THE TEAM!" Caleb shouts while hugging me."I am so happy right now!" I say clapping while jumping up and down."Let's go get some ice cream to celebrate,my treat!" Caleb says as I hug him tighter."Thank you for being an awesome best friend" I say bopping his nose while we walk to go get ice cream.
