         It was the day of the dodgeball tournament. Joey and Malachy were both competing, but lucky for them not against each other. The both knew they could never bear the pain of having to compete against each other. They didn't know it but they were both in love with each other. Each oblivious to the others undying  passion.

I snuck a look over at Malachy. He was talking to Adeline ,perfect as ever. I knew that the odds were that Malachy probably liked her . And That just made me mad. I know I could treat him better than she ever could. But Malachy probably wanted her, and no matter what all I want is for him to be happy. The tournament started and Mal's team goes first. He's playing against Seth's team. Shit  I think as they line up for the starting whistle. Seth's team was obviously the better of the two. Seth would always beat Malachy, anyone really, in gym. The game starts with Mr. houndshel's obnoxious whistle. I jump at the high-pitched sound of it. One-by-one players slowly started to get out. Malachy kept going strong and eventually it was just him against Seth. The tension was growing and I  became more nervous with every slight movement. Seth eventually dodged enough to have a mass amount of dodgeballs at his hand. He trows the first one. Dodged . Then the second dodged. The third one goes dodged too and then its down to Seth's last ball. All the previously thrown ones are too far and too risky for Malachy to go for. I bite my thumbnail. I don't want Mal to loose. I dont want him to get hurt. After the suspense of Seth holding the ball he throws it. Way too fast for Malachy to even think about dodging it. It hits Mal straight in the head and he falls to the ground.
