I Dare You

Chapter 13: Mia's P.O.V

A thousand thoughts were running through my head, that I couldn't keep track. My secret was out, and surprisingly the first one to know was Kane Evans. I am so stupid for dropping the letter in the first place. I was happy that he thought I was good at soccer and that I was different. But that didn't mean we were going to BFF's. I still hated him, hated the girls he slept with and the jerks he hung with. 

On the bright side. Yay! I made it into the team! I can't wait to get home and tell Mum and Ryan everything, they will be stoked, especially Ryan. Wait a second. If Kane came to my try outs did that mean he saw me walking to the car with Ryan? Oh my god I can't let him find out about Ryan and I. 

"So do you have any friends?" He asked me. 

"My best friend left to New Zealand to live there. His names was Jayden. He past away a year ago in a car accident. I went over to New Zealand to see him for the last time. It was the hardest thing I could do, say goodbye to someone. He was my only best friend and the only guy I loved." I said holding back my tears. 

"I'm so sorry Mia, he must of been a good person." He said making me feel better. 

"He was, no guy can take ever his place." I said frowning. 

"So who was the guy I saw you with at your try outs. I might of thought he was your boyfriend, or book club buddy."

I began to sweat and shake. I needed to come up with I lie. I didn't want to tell him Ryan was my boyfriend, that would be gross. So I went along with the "book club buddy" lie. 

"Oh yes, that was my friend ummm Fredrickson Nickle from book club." "Why do you ask?"

"Just curious, he looks like a football player." 

"Pftt. Fredrickson a football player? Yeah right." I am the worst liar in the world.

I checked my phone and it was 7.30pm, later then I expected myself to be here. I needed to go home, I didn't want Mum worrying sick. I grabbed my belongings while Kane was in the bathroom. I walked out and bumped to him at the front of the stairs. 

"Whats the rush?" He asked. 

"It's getting late and I think I should go. Thanks for having me over." 

"No problem, so tomorrow after school?" 

"Sure, I'll be here right after soccer practice." 

"How about I come with you?" 

"To where?" I asked. 

"To your soccer practice, after all you are a pleasure to watch." He said giving me a cheeky wink.

"Are you sure you want to be seen with ... me?" 

"Don't worry no one will notice me with you. I'll drive in my own car, and you'll drive in yours, so no one becomes suspicious."

"Sure, anyways I better go." I said taking my first steps down the stair case. 

"Bye Ramiyah." He said chuckling. 

"Good night Candy Kane, sleep tight." I said and I was out the door.
