Lauren's POV

I wonder who is the lucky person that caught Y/N's attention? Its bothering me all day. I sighed and just pulled up my hair into a high ponytail and picked up my baseball glove and went out of the locker room and went to the softball field. My teammates greeted me and then we catch up a bit then when our coach arrived the training started. Our coach is giving a hard time in the training. There's an upcomimg game next month. We are the defending champion and our coach is making sure that we won't lose the title of being a  defending champion.

It was my turn as the batter and I picked up the bat and ready myself for the pitch. Amber the pitcher threw the ball and I swing the bat but I missed earning the first strike.

"Strike one!" Jenny, our teams catcher yelled then threw the ball back at amber, I took a deep breath then exhaled and readied myself for another pitch but I stared behind Amber and I saw Y/N watching me from afar, she smiled and waved at me and I got a little bit distracted and forgot that I am playing softball and all I heard was the scream of my teammates.

"Lauren watch out!" I heard Amber screamed and I saw the ball coming towards me and suddenly I fell on my butt like someone pushed me out of the way. It happened so fast and that left me stunned and stared at the ball and it was already lying on the ground. My team mates ran towards me asking me if I am okay, looking for any possible bruise that I acquired but its a miracle that I have none.

"Are you okay Lauren? I'm really sorry" Amber asked me and apologized repeatedly.

"I'm okay Amber, its my fault and not yours, I was not the one who is not focusing on the game" I told her and  look back at Y/N who was facing her back at me.

"Do you have any concussion or something? If you have let us bring you to the clinic" coach said.

"I'm fine coach, I am really fine" I said and stood up and dusted myself.

"Okay Lauren you make take a break, you can go home if you want, you can come back tomorrow" My coach said and I just nodded my head, not arguing anymore.

I walked towards the bench area and took a bottle of water from my bag and drink it.

This day have been weird. I put back the bottle inside my bag.

"Are you okay Lauren?" I heard Y/N's voice.

"Yeah I'm okay and I'm not hurt" I told her.

"Well that's good to know, I got worried you know?" She said and that made me smile and I feel butterflies inside my stomach. I am happy to know that Y/N is concerned about my well-being.

"Well thank you for your concern Y/N" I told her and she just smiled.

I put all my things inside my bag then slung it to my shoulder.

"Going home already?" She asked me.

"Yes, coach dismissed me early, because of what happened, I'm a bit disoriented today and she ordered me to rest" I told her.

"I'll give you a ride home" she offered.

"Oh no, don't bother. I will just call for dad to fetch me here" I said.

"No I insist and I will not take no for an answer" she said then pulled me towards her car.

She opened the car door for me and I entered the passenger seat. She jogged to the driver seat.

"Please put the seatbelt on Laur" she said and I put the seatbelt on and she revved the car engine and started to drive.

"Y/N?" I called her.

"Hmm?" She hummed.

"I know it sounds weird but I really think someone pushed me out of the way before the ball hit me" I told her and she looked at me briefly then to the road.

"I think you really need to see a doctor Lauren because its impossible. No one who is that fast to push you out of the way in time before the ball hits you unless that person is the flash or has the power like the flash" she said with as a matter of fact tone.

"Well I knew someone who has the ability to do that" I told her.

"Who?" She asked me.

"The girl who saved me from those thugs and the girl on the trending video who fought with the evil looking guy, maybe she was the one who saved me from that ball" I said and she just raised her eyebrows.

"That's impossible Lauren, how will she know that you are gonna be hit by a softball?" She asked.

"I don't know, maybe she was secretly looking out for me?" I said with a questioning tone and Y/N coughed.

"Are you okay?" I asked her.

"Yes I am, I just choked on my own spit sorry" she said.

"Wow! You are really confident that she's looking out for you" she said sarcastically.

"No that was just a hunch you know but if I ever see her again I want to voice out my gratitude to her for saving my life" I told her and she rolled her eyes.

"And then after seeing your savior Lauren you will fall in love with your savior like Lois Laine fell in love with superman after saving her? Cliché Lauren, really cliché" she said.

"No! I will fall in love with her, I will just say thanks and there's someone whom I like already" I said and Y/N looked at me.

"Really? Who?" She asked.

"Secret" I said then looked at the window with a smile on my face.

"Who? Tell me" she said.

"No I won't tell" I told her then grinned at her.

"Oh come on Lauren" she whined

"Tell me yours first" I said with a challenging tone.

"I won't tell mine" she said.

"Then I won't tell mine" I said then shift my attention at the road totally ignoring Y/N. She groaned and gave up. I had a wide winning grin on my face, I win this time Y/LN.
