Dalton P.O.V

I watch at half time as Courtney finishes her half time performance, I'd have to remember to compliment her on that tomorrow at the party. She danced with a certain flow, or uniqueness about her, you could very well see her creative side come out when she danced, unlike the other girls who did everything sloppy, and boring.
I'll admit, I was sceptical of talking to her at first, because none of the other boys ever dared even say hi to her. I kind of feel like a jerk, because honestly after knowing her for just a day, I can see that she's the sweetest girl I've ever met, under all of sarcasm, and dramatics she performs. She can lie about her kindness all she wants, but I saw her slip that $10 bill to that girl she didn't know, with no money at magic mountain a few years ago. I also saw her stand up for her when she saw her getting bullied later on in the day. I don't  know why she pretends to be a jerk. She's hiding something, and I'm bound and determined to figure it out.

"DALTON!!!!!!" Coach Reedley yells.
"Yes'sir?" I yell over the crowd while jogging towards coach.
"See blondie over there, tall guy, big hands?"
"Yeah."
"Well I bet you anything, that next quarter he's going to be on your tail. I'd keep my eye out for him if I were you, son."
"Yes sir, thank you sir!"

During the game I do as coach Reedley advises,  and he was right. Throughout the game blondie threw himself at me, one time he actually caught me, but I got away thankfully. In the end we scored 41 to 17. It was the first game of the season, and that in itself was something to celebrate about, but when you win by 24 points? Let's just say it'll be hard to shut us up for a while. 
I search the crowd for one particular auburn haired, blue eyed beauty. Oops, I meant hot girl, definitely hot girl, the quarter back of the football team would never call anyone a beauty, even if it was true, would they? I mean, when their that good looking? Inside and out? Nope I just formally met her, my testosterone levels must be dropping, no dude should have this thought pattern, I better man up, and get a grip of myself.
"Hey!"
"Courtney!"
She continues to ignore me.......
"YO COURTNEY!!"
Her head spins around so fast, she might've gotten whiplash.
"Oh, hey Dalton, great game, that was a 'gnarly' touch down you made in the last quarter."
She says mocking the word gnarly I used earlier today.
"Yeah? Thanks! That was an excellent half time performance you cheered earlier."
"Thanks, glad someone appreciates my cheerleading skills"
"How are you getting home? I mean not to sound creepy or pedophilish or anything, but I was just wandering...."
Man up Dalton, you idiot! You sound like a blubbering fool!
"Oh, I'm just taking my car, it's over parked by 10th, since the parking lot was so packed."
Yes!! Score Dalton! You can offer her a ride over there!!
"You can come with me in my truck!" I rush out in a really excited manner. I'm such an idiot.. "Well, I mean if you want.... But if you don't I guess that's cool."
She seemed to contemplate for a minute.
"Well, I mean, like, if it isn't any trouble to you, I'd appreciate it." And then off to the side she whispers in my ear,
"There were some creepy dudes I thought were following me earlier, and their right over there, looking this way. Their starting to freak me out, so the sooner we leave the better." She says pointing to my 5 o'clock.
She started speed walking out of there.
I chuckle, silly girl doesn't even know where my truck is, it's the other way. I go to grab her hand to pull her the other way towards my truck when two big muscular dark figures come out from behind a tree and try to grab her. I quickly throw her behind me and growl viscously at the two interrupting the move I was attempting to make on the girl I've liked since 7th grade. Wait what?I like her? Wait...... I just growled, "oh Dalton"... I say to my self in my head, "what is this some were wolf movie?"
The guy with blonde hair from the game goes in for a right hook, when I kick at him behind his knee, and vigorously bring his dace to my knee, and then to the hard ground. Once he falls, I kick the piece of slime in the side. Hard. I turn around to see the his accomplice with brown hair, racing at me like Usain Bolt. Just before he reaches me, and probably ends my football career with his good 300 pound body, I hear a snap, crackle, and pop, and look up to see a smiling Courtney kicking his 6'4 head with her foot, whoa, who is she Chuck Norris? She then elbows him in the gut, then brings him to his knees with a forceful kick to the back of his legs, and puts him in a choke hold.
"Scram before I change my mind, and snap your neck!" She yells with a rage I've never seen from such a tiny girl before. She's only about 5'4. I'm impressed to say the least.  Guys my size wouldn't even've had the courage nor ability to pull off what she just did.
Without another word, I turn around and open my passenger door for her.
"And they say chivalry is dead!" She says in a mocking matter. And with that, we drive off into the night. Just kidding, I'm not THAT sappy... Not yet anyways......
