"Parker, come here.", Coach Meghan said as we finished our running. I ran over to her and she put a hand on my shoulder.
"We have to work harder.", she explained to me. "With Katelyn out, she was one of the best players on this team."
"The reason why we lost is because...", I tried to say but she cut me off.
"We lost because our defense sucked.", she admitted.
"If they stopped the clock....", I tried to say again but she interrupted me.
"No excuses! Go run the halls Parker. You could've guided this team to a win. You failed all of us!", she said as she walked away. "Now!" I rolled my eyes and walked out of the doors. I began to run around, cutting through the other gym that the guys were using.
"Zoe? Why are you running the halls?", Ethan said stopping me.
"Because I was making excuses.", I said trying to catch my breath.
"Wow.", Lucas said before their coach began to yell. "Gotta go."
I started to continue to run before Lucas said, "Hey, I need to talk to you after practice." I nodded and ran.
***
We did 20 suicides because we lost our game. Did mainly drills like, figure 8, nukoom, and other ones I can hardly remember. I understood we lost, but I didn't know that it was be this bad.
I walked to the locker rooms after practice, I couldn't wait until I could get home to take a ice bath. I walked in and I could hear Queen bitch and her little peasant friends talking. I rolled my eyes and walked over to my locker.
"And isn't it Zoella Parker. The ugly boy that plays on a girl team.", The bitch said (A.K.A Maria Anderson)
"And you think your any better?", I asked grabbing my duffle bag.
"I'm a lot better. I'm hot, sexy and cute.", she said flipping her hair back.
"Oh shut the hell up, stop calling yourself hot. The only thing that you can turn on is the microwave.", I said smirking at my comment.
"Excuse me? Coming from the most hideous girl in our whole grade?", she said laughing.
"I can beat your ass at any second, so I would advise to shut your damn mouth.", I said walking over to her, getting her face.
"Let's go girls.", she said rolling her eyes and walking out. I fucking hate that bitch, she is from the depths of hell. She's like Satan's daughter or something. She has been a bitch to me ever since 6th grade, I thought when I punched her in 8th grade she would leave me alone. But she just fixed her ugly face with some makeup and probably looked up comebacks on google to tell me.
I rolled my eyes and walked out the door, Lucas standing outside.
"Hey.", he said as he began to walk with me. "I heard your comeback to Maria.", he chuckled.
"I fucking hate her.", I said as I gritted my teeth.
"Listen, I have a favor to ask.", he asked as he stood in front of me.
"If it involves with sex or drugs, don't even bother.", I said looking at him. He laughed and said, "I'm actually failing science. You know, learning about that body and stuff. Would you be willing to maybe tutor me?"
"Why me?", I asked closing my eyes.
"Because, the teacher recommended you.", he said getting out of my way so I could continue walking. "And, I do want to spend some time with you."
