Chapter 5

The next day when Izzy arrived at soccer, she saw Imogen there. 'Wtf is she doing here?' Izzy thought

'Oh hey Izzy, I'm just dropping my sister off,' Imogen said. As she walked past Izzy towards the exit she whispered  in her ear 'tell anyone about last night and you're dead...'. before flashing a fake smile at her and walking out.

Izzy couldn't concentrate during the drills, kept making mistakes, and she could tell Alex knew there was something wrong. After about 20 minutes she called a break.

'Okay girls, five minute water break and then we'll get back to it, Izzy, come over here for me?'

Izzy didn't know what she was going to say to her, but she knew she had some kind of truth she could tell.

'You seem really off today, is something wrong?'

'Erm, the thing is, I'm a bit worried about my mom. She hasn't been home for 3 days and with my dad on a business trip for the next 2 weeks, I've been on my own. I'm scared she won't come back, please don't tell anyone?' Izzy broke down in tears, she never cried in public, but she couldn't help herself this time.

'Oh my god Izzy, let's speak about this after the session okay? Do you want to sit out on the drills and just do the 11v11?'

'That would be great thanks,'

'Now go and get a tissue from the bathrooms and you can take as long as you like, but we'll start the 11v11 in half an hour?'

'Sure,'

Izzy went into the bathroom and cried her eyes out, she was fed up of her life, and needed to end it. She ran into the changing rooms where her bag was, and grabbed her blade. She didn't know why she had brought it with her, but she had, and now she was going to use it.

After about 20 minutes, she realised she had blood all over her jersey. She had a spare one in her bag got that one and took her other one off, as she was pulling it off, Alex came in the room

'Izzy? We're about to start the 11v11, do you..... OMG IZZY WHAT IS THAT ON YOUR BACK?!!!'

Izzy realised that she had just shown Alex her back, that had bruises and scratches on from last night.

'Erm, nothing!' She replied, pulled her shirt on, and hurried out.

'IZZY COME BACK HERE NOW!' Alex shouted. 'YOU CAN TALK TO ME ABOUT THIS!'
