Jessica's POV:

Game time bitches were about to play the stallions. We've been waiting for this game for awhile , they're our biggest rivals. I'm both nervous and excited for this. The music blares in my ears as we take the two laps around the field. "Girls bring it in" , I yell after the laps (I'm the captain in case your wondering). We all are huddled up "ok ladies we know this is a tough game play with your all, we all know they play dirty so dish back what they give" , "don't get a card this game Jess" , said Lexi. I smiled and shook my head "ok let's get our stretches in ladies" , I commanded.

We did our stretches and ply-ohs (high knees , but kicks , Frankensteins etc). After our warm up we got a quick drink. "Ok ok defense get some balls go to far field and practice goal kicks, mids get in the square and dribble, attackers take shots on goal, goalies do your exercises then get in goal" , I commanded. We practiced for about 10mins until the refs called us to midfield. "Ladies you've been through this before"...... Blah blah fucking blah I've heard this a thousand times the just explain safety precautions the rules other crap. "Captains" , said the ref. Sarah and I stepped foward along with the stallions' captains Isabelle and Chelsea. Basically the refs just told us that we got ball first and to play clean....we all know that's not happening.

I huddled the team up in a circle by the 18. "Alright we all want this play your heart out and leave it all on the field , I love you all we can do this" , I said "turn up bitches" , said Jocelyn. We all laughed "B-U-L-L-D-O-G-S " , we chanted and clapped "B-U-L-L-D-O-G-S" our clapping increased "ahhhhh 1!2!3! Bulldogs" , we screamed and stopped clapping.

We jogged to our positions. I looked to the bleachers to see Mel sitting there I couldn't help but wave and smile at her. Damn she's so cute. "Ok Jess get serious" , I spoke to myself. I kissed my fist and put it to my heart... It's just something I do since my aunt died everything I do Is for her.

The whistle was blown. Cami kicked it back to Jen then looped behind. Jen dribbled up "go help her" , I yelled at the mids. They did as I said which resulted in defense being able to push up. Ashley kicked the ball to me , I put my hand up once I trapped the ball. It's a signal to my teammates that I going to shoot at goal so make runs. I struck the ball in the air , Cami tried to head it in but the goalie knocked it out. Great it's a corner "corner" , I yelled as I sprinted to the corner "Positions ladies". I put the ball where I like and got on an angle to the ball. As I put my hand up everyone made runs and I struck the ball in the air. It almost went in slow motion. Genesis jumped and dived scoring a header. "Woot woot" , we cheered and Genesis did a back hand spring , what a show off.

37mins later. There's only 3 minutes left in the half , the score is 3-2 us in favor. Chelsea dribbled past our mids. I sprinted up and slide tackled her. When I did she purposely kicked my ankle and fell ontop of me "ahhhh f-" , I grunted in pain "get the fuck off me !" When she got up she kicked my side with her cleat. "Ouch ref did you just see that !?" , I whinned "no" , he replied. I couldn't stop the tears from coming down my face " oh mi gosh mierda que tienes que era una falta flagrante en us nombre qué demonios" , I screamed. This is complete bullshit now I'm out for the rest of the game.

Mel my fam and the coach all came out to where I was lying "you have to go to the hospital" , coach said. I nodded slowly not wanting to speak any longer.

At the hospital

So now I have a fucking sprained ankle I'm out for about 6 weeks. I'm beyond pissed I'm gonna fucking kill Chelsea I swear. She did it purposely. I grab my crutches and walk to the waiting room "it's sprained" , I mumbled to my fam and Mel. "Dique" , said Josiah and Jacob. I smiled at them " can we go back to the game" , I ask. My dad nodded . "Kay I'm riding with Mel" my dad gave me a look as if he was saying whose that "tell ya later" , I whispered in his ear "ok" , he smiled.

I walked with Mel to her car and got in. She started the engine "so on a scale from 1 to ahh fuck how much does it hurt" , she asked curiously. "Like a 8.5" , I shrugged. The rest of the car ride was silent. When we finally arrived I walked to the bench "there's 15 minutes left and were down 3-4" there's no way we can lose this we've worked way too hard. "Girls just remember play hard you have to want it and leave it all on the field" , I encourage them. We do our little chant then they go out on the field and play.

We ended up tying the game that's pretty good for us being that I wasn't playing.

I walk back over to Mel "want to come over" , she asks. "Uh yeah" , I reply. We head to her house once I get there I sit on the couch and put my injured ankle on her lap. She gives me a sad smile n rubs her hand up and down my thigh. I stare at her I never really realized how beautiful she was. She must've caught me staring at her because she put her head down.

I reached over and picked her head up "you're really beautiful babe" I say before she can reply I crashed my lips to hers , to my surprise she licked my bottom lip asking for entrance which I gladly granted. Our tongues danced to the same rhythm of our rapid beating hearts.

We pulled away after about 3 minutes. "You don't know how long I've been waiting for that" , she says catching her breath. I just smile , after a few moments of nothingness I break the silence "so what does this mean for us" she looks up to the ceiling "honestly...I don't know"
