Everyone started making their way towards the locker room, but Liam and I got there before anyone else. Our lockers were right next to each other.
"Hey, I'm Liam," Liam said holding out his hand.
I shook it, "Scarlet, but my friends call me Scar."
"We just met and I'm your friend?" Liam asked sounding confused and shocked.
"You seem like a pretty nice kid and I'm friends with nice people. Why, you don't want to be friends?" I said jokingly.
Liam seemed to know I was joking, "It's not that," he said smiling. "I just thought that being new, it would be harder to make friends."
"Well you already got yourself one friends, who also happens to be one of the lacrosse captains, so I'm pretty sure you'll be making friends left and right."
"I hope so." Grabbing his stuff Liam said, "I saw you practicing and let me just say you're really good."
"You too. I'm surprised you were able to catch every shot, I never saw that happen before."
"I practiced a lot with my dad and I guess it paid off. You know how dads are, always strict, but still want to help any way they can."
"Actually, my parents got divorced and my dad just now came into my life," I said sad.
Liam's eyes widened, I'm so sorry, I didn't know, I just-" I cut him off.
"It's okay everyone makes mistakes. But my mom was pretty strict raising two kids, so it's kind of the same thing, but then again it isn't. What are you going to do?" I said shrugging my shoulders smiling.
Then Scott and Stiles came out of nowhere, "Hey," Stiles said making Liam turn around. "Do you want to explain to us what happened out there?"
"What do you mean?" Liam asked confused.
"I mean your little circus act."
"What circus act?"
"You caught every shot."
"I was in goal."
"But, nothing, not a single shot got past you."
"Yeah, I was goalie." Liam turned to me, "Has he ever played before?"
I just shrugged my shoulders, "Sometimes he acts like an idiot and other times I start to question if he really is one." I said earning a glare from Stiles. I was trying to take away some of the tension, because Liam really seems nice and I would like to be friends with him. It worked a little, since I made Liam smile and he seems to relax just a little bit.
"Yeah, but you weren't here last semester." Stiles groaned.
"I transferred from Devensfort Prep." His heart just jumped a little. Wait... Did he say Devensfort Prep?
"You transferred," I said shocked, trying to get the truth out of him. "Why? I heard that was a really good school and that the lacrosse team was amazing too."
"Yeah,"... Liam looked nervous. "I just didn't like the school that much."
Scott shared a glance with Stiles, "No, you got kicked out, didn't you?"
Liam stared at Scott for a while, "Alright, kicked out, transferred, what do you care anyways? I came here to play lacrosse. You're team lost a few good players right?"
"Nope," Stiles gave him a smile. "We don't need any more good players."
"Actually," I said speaking up, "We could use some good players." I saw the corner of Liam's mouth lift a little trying not to smile.
