Soccer Games

Red POV

"Hey Barney, can you pass me those?", I ask as I point towards my keys on the counter.

"Yeah sure", he says as he tosses them to me and I finish tying my shoe. I get up then toss my keys up and catch them.

"Is Eren ready?", I look up to John and ask.

"He's not coming", he says matter-of-factly.

"Why not?", I looked at him confused.

"He had last minute plans."

"Ahh", I didn't think much of it and stopped asking questions, it want unusual, just a last minute change, nothing to be overly concerned about. I wouldn't blame him either, we decided to go later in the evening and it would probably be dark before we got back.

"Okay let's go!", John jumps up excitedly and walks out the door. I laughed, but didn't comment since it wasn't overly out of character. I follow him out and lock the door behind us. We head down from our apartment to my car. John turns on the radio and gleefully hums along despite obviously not knowing anyone of the songs. He's oddly joyful today but I shrug it off, it's not a bad thing to be happy.

~~~

We arrive at the soccer field and I park my car. John gets out and I follow behind him. There's not many people around just a few people at the park, but that's okay. John gets onto the field and starts booting the ball around and I smile.

"Red!", he kicks ball to me and I'm able to save it just in time. We kick it back and forth for while and finally John stops it. "How about a little competition?"

"I'm up for a little competition, as long as you don't cry when you lose", I say in a cocky manner and laugh.

"Oh whatever Red", he laughs back.

"What does the winner get?"

"Loser buys dinner", he say and start jokingly stretching like in on of those exercising videos from the 80's.

"Sounds good to me, first to five?" John nods and I have to wait for him to finish his 'stretching' and we start. He made the first goal and I was able to quickly pass him.

After we were a bit into the game I was at four and John was at two, which was strange because me and John were pretty even in our skills and I didn't expect actually winning against him.

"Hey, one more shot and I have dinner!", I yell towards him, kicking the ball in between my feet.

"That's what you think!", he yells back and laughs.

I start sprinting with the ball, towards John's goal. I bring it past him and he starts running after me. When he's about to catch me I kick it in the goal. "Hah! I wi-", suddenly I am pushed from the side and I fall onto my back. Before I can comprehend what just happened I find John laying on top of me.

"Whoops, I caught up to you a lot faster than I thought I would", he laughs nervously and looks into my eyes. I look back and go to ask him what he's doing and why he hasn't gotten off of me, but before I do he kisses me. I can't believe what's happening and as my brain tell me to push him off, I find myself already kissing him. What the hell am I doing? And why do I like it so much. We kissed as he lay on top of me. I know the kiss lasted a bit but it felt like as soon as it started it ended.

John pulls away, the taste of his lips lingering on mine. I still have my eyes closed as he pulls away and I bite me lip sensually. I open my eyes and looked up at John, still hovering over me.

"Looks like I'm buying dinner", he smirks. He stands up and puts his hand out for me, I grab his hand and he helps me up. "But I'm okay with that", he winks and kisses my cheek and lets go of my hand, his fingers lightly running on the palm of my hand and I follow him to my car, smiling and finding that my cheeks are a little hot from quite the life changer.
