"We'll be friends forever, won't we, Pooh?" asked Piglet.
"Even longer," Pooh answered.

Sydney's POV

"Sydney." That Austin guy said, picking me for his team.

I wonder how he knows my name but then considering the fact that he is Lara's cousin and Morgan's soon to be boyfriend I'll let it pass. I walk towards him and wait till all the teams are picked out. Then we got ready for the coach to blow the whistle as we stand opposite each other.

I then feel a tap on my shoulder so I turn around and see him. Oh god! He was really cute. Like nerd hot! He was really good looking with dark brown hair and a very sharp jawline. Although he was quite thin, you could see a bit of muscles peeking out. He was also wearing glasses and that's when I realized he was the same guy I saw in class this morning, when I was with Lara and Morgan.

"Yes," I question, raising my eyebrows, ignoring the fact that I sounded a tad bit rude.
He gave me a slightly goofy, nervous smile that made my knees weak. He has dimples!
"Well, hi, I'm Matt," he smiled. I smiled back and introduced my self.

"So, are you uh..good at dodge ball?" He asked nervously. Oh just kill me now!

"Yes, why?"

A smile broke on his face. "Well I was wondering if you could cover me, because I suck at this. I'm more of a music type a guy."

I can't believe I'm finding that really cute.

"Sure..you sing?" I ask raising my eyebrows.

"Yea, I'm in a band —Black Grunge—weird name, I know. We also play every Fridays at Barry's Barn. Well it's not a barn it's actually like a hangout spot but it's a restaurant and a bar at the same time. Did you know they serve the best sushi there? By the way, do you like sushi? I like it a lot, which reminds me, have you ever gone fishing before? It's really fun. My grandfather owns a little boat in which me and my mates go fishing during the weekends. Also I—"

I cut him, "Do you always talk this much?" Amusement was clear in my eyes as I stared at his blushing face. Oh boy!

"Only when I'm nervous."

And that makes me laugh, "Why are you nervous?"

"I don't even know, honestly I get kinda nervous around really pretty girls," he spoke absentmindedly but all I could think about was the fact that he thought I was pretty. He then realized what he just said and his face went fifty shades red as he scratched the back of his neck looking even more nervous if possible.

"Well, I think that's really cute," I say just as the teacher blows the whistle.

Matt immediately walks behind me so I could block him from the balls. I was doing really good. I managed to take about a good number of people from the other team, even Tyler, and I did a pretty good job in making sure I don't get hit. But it was even funnier watching Matt trying to catch up with my speed so he wouldn't be hit by the ball. But this one time, he tripped and so he blocked the impact by his hands, ending up doing a push up. Damn.

I aimed at Lara, hoping to send her out as well but she quickly dodged it. She then did a little sassy move which didn't go unnoticed by Tyler. "Damn Lara, rock that body!" She then stopped, and immediately glared at Tyler which resulted in me and some other people to burst out laughing. Then suddenly Amanda picked up a ball and with all the force she could muster, she hit Lara. Straight on the face! Ouch!
