After school I go to the locker room and start to change getting ready for practice. Of course I'm not with the guys so it is really lonely because I'm the only one using the locker room. I'm used to being alone and honestly I hate all the girls that think they are better than everyone else. I try to avoid them as much as possible, but of course they always try to cozy up to me because they want updates of how their "crushes" on the team are doing.
After I'm done I grab my water and head out to our wrestling room. When I walk in of course my stupid best friends are messing around and staring at the track girls in the gym. Of course I listen to their banter about asses twenty four seven but seriously I'm a girl I really don't want to hear about who wants to bang who. And ladies and gentleman this is what I have to deal with everyday but I understand because they are my best friends.
I walk into the room, "Hey guys what's up?"
"Emmaaaa." My three best friends bound up to me and give me the biggest group hug in the world.
"Damn guys it's like you haven't seen me in forever." I say laughing.
"Well to us it's felt like that." My best friend since day one said.
Now this being said let me introduce you to my three best friends. You have Nick, Sal and Christian.
So unfortunately for me Nick and Sal are seniors which means I won't see them next year but they are both amazing and I don't know what I'd do without them.Nick is the funniest person to be around and he absolutely loves his cars. He has always had my back and has encouraged me to join the team since day one, I can always count on him, especially for a ride home from practice even if we always argue about the radio stations.
Then you have Sal. Of course Sal is giant, he's 6'3" which is huge compared to my 5'. Sal is the jokester out of all of us and he knows just the right thing to say to cheer you up. Now he has helped me a lot because has been rough with me because being the only girl on the team you never know who is actually a real friend outside the team or who just wants to get close to the guys. I hate knowing that I don't really have any girl friends to talk to because I love the guys but I can't talk about girl stuff with them they wouldn't take it seriously at all.Now last but not least we have Christian. Both of us are juniors and we are practically twins. We love pretty much all the same things except he is more obsessed with his hair and yes this is a true fact. Christian is my go to with anything, even if he pisses me off most of the time because he is self obsessed with his hair. You don't know how many times we rag on him about how he's obsessed with it, even the coach gets annoyed with Christian and his hair problems.
Going back to the beginning though, I've always had a special connection with Nick even though he's a year older. We go so far back and he is practically my best friend in the whole wide world even if he does try to kill every guy that looks at me.So back to the present.
"Okay guys gather round. Today is the 1st practice of the season and we gotta work hard if we wants to make it to states. Now everyone lets stretch and let today be one of the best practices we have all year." I say to my guys. As captain of the team this year I have a huge responsibility to take care of my team and win with them. Let's see how this year goes.
