The Winning Pass

Chapter 2

~KNOX POV~
After school me and a couple of the guys on the football team went to scrimmage in the field. We played for about two hours until Brad noticed something and he whistles. I turned to see a beautiful girl she had long brown hair and she had long tan legs.She looked at me too and we had eyes contact until I broke it. The guys were whistling and humping the air, So I got their attention back. They all complied; when I turned back to see if she was there she was gone. I felt a little disappointed, but I didn't really know her. Me and the guys finished our game and left. I got in my black Range Rover and headed back home. When I reached the driveway hate I entered the code and the opened. My dad is Parker Christian NFL quarterback. My house was three stories with my parents and two brothers. The oldest was Ben,then me, then Nick. When I walked into the house the house I went straight up to my room and into my bathroom. I stood in the shower remembering the images or the running girl, she was fit. I was brought out of my trance when there was a knock at my bathroom door.
"Knox,"My dad called.
"Yeah,"
"I'm going to practice, but when I get back we are going to a friends,"
"Bobby's?" I questioned.
"Nope, just be ready," I sighed and turned off the shower. I walked into my closet and put on a pair of khaki shorts and a mint green polo with white Jordans. I sat on my bed thinking about the girls and dozed into sleep. When I woke up feeling my bed dip due to extra weigh I opened my eyes to see my father looking at me.
"Ready to go sleeping beauty?" he asked, I laughed.
"Lets go Cinderella," I joked and we walked out to my dad's black Camero with tinted windows. The drive was in comfortable, dad told me about practice and I told him about the girl in the field.
"So she was good looking ?" he asked raising and eye brow and glancing at me with a smile.
"Yea, she was,"
"Why didn't you talk to her?"
"Brad scared her away," I laughed and so did he.
"What did the egg head do now?"he chuckled.
"He started whistling at her and I wanted to just punch him,"
"Son, you have to claim your territory next time, promise me next time you see this girl you will claim your territory," she said looking over at me.
"I'm sure I'm probably not gonna see her again," I sulked.
"Anyways just promise that even if its not her, if you see something you want you go for it, like that state title," He joked nudging my arm.
"Yea, we have a good team this year," I commented. The rest of the ride was filled with football talk until we arrived at a gated driveway like ours. My dad pressed the button. Just as a silver mustang with tinted windows pulled up behind us, the gates opened. Both cars pulled up to the entrance of the house. My dad and I got out and saw Tim. This was his house? He and my dad bro hugged and we shaked. We all walked up to the door and Tim knocked. When the door opened Tim went and grabbed the figure and spun them around. When he placed them down I saw their face. It was her. My blood began to race and I looked down at my shoes. He introduced her as Eleanor. Eleanor. She shook my father's hand and then shook mine. I felt as if there was a magnet pulling me to her. We stared at each other until a old woman appeared and informed us dinner would be ready in a bit. We walked into what I think was the living room. She walked ahead of me and I couldn't help but stare. Her ass was amazing shaped. Her and Tim sat on the couch. Me and my dad sat in the two chairs on either side of the couch. Tim turned on the remote and a video started to play. He was about to change it when my dad spoke up. We sat back watching. This video was obviously highlights for the wide receiver number five. This guy was amazing. He was super fast and caught the ball how a pro would. Eleanor looked a little uncomfortable, shifting in her chair. I hope it wasn't me.
"Who is that?" My dad asked pointing to the screen.
"Who?" Tim asked.
"Number five,"
"Oh, just a high school player from Colorado," Tim answered nonchalantly.
"Huh, he's pretty great could probably make it to the pros," my dad said watching the flat screen intently, scratching his chin. Just then the older lady from earlier reappeared and summoned us all to the dining room. I sat across from Eleanor and Tim across from my dad. We kept looking at each other neither one of us starting the conversation. Soon it was time to go. I waved goodbye and me and my dad drove home.
"That was her wasn't it?" my dad asked.
"Yea, how did you know?" I pondered.
"The way you were looking at her," he answered with a smirk, " it's okay to crush son,"
~ELEANOR POV~
The next morning I woke up at 7:00am. I had to be at school by 8:00am and I had tryouts this afternoon. Last night was a little awkward I felt and attraction to him, but I don't know if he felt it too. I took a quick shower and put on some black high-waisted shorts, my black sports bra with a white belly shirts that has the Adidas symbol on it. I grabbed my white Nike pros, my white football pants, cleats, socks, black v-neck, and my mouth guard. I found my black duffel and put everything in. I checked the side pockets to make sure I had my headbands and hair ties. I slipped on my black boots and grabbed my duffel and backpack and headed. Downstairs. I dropped my bags near the door and headed to the kitchen. Dad was there drinking a muscle shake and he handed me one.
"Thanks dad," I said and he leaned down for me to peck him on the cheek.
"Have a good day," He said as I grabbed my car keys. I grabbed my bags from the door and walked out to my white Audi R8 Spyder. My sixteenth birthday present from my dad. I put the bags in the truck and drove to my new high school.
