A month and some weeks have passed by already. I was a wreck the first week then I was just angry. I spent my time working and running. Last month me and Casper celebrated our one year anniversary and it went perfect. I stopped the pills and drinking and just kept smoking once in a while. I haven't done it lately since they've been drug testing us now. Today is a big day for me it's our 3rd to the last game we have left. I'm getting pumped up for it. I just hope I don't get sick cause these past few days I've been getting sick.

It was after school already and me and Casper where at my house chilling for a bit while I got my bag ready for the game today.

"How are you feeling today" asked Casper.

"Good and I better stay good" I said.

He laughs "I'm sure you will. So you have everything ready" asked Casper.

"Yeah I do let's go i don't want to be late" I said.

I got my things and we left to the school. We were waiting for the team to get here so we can make our way already. Everyone got here I said goodbye to Casper then he left saying he would see me over there. I slept on the bus ride. We got there we changed and we went to go stretch and get ready. I was looking at the few people here and I saw my parents and Casper together and it made me smile. This is the first time they've ever came to a game of mine. It was my turn to go now. I was getting a little nervous but I was confident. I was running the 2000 meter steeplechase. Anyways it started and it felt like I was alone. I couldn't hear anyone but my heartbeat and my breathing. Then I cross the finish line and the people went crazy and my coach went crazy also. I was so energized when I saw my time I went crazy also and I went and hugged my teammates. They congratulated me also. I broke the school record. I ran it in 8 minutes. Proudest moment ever. After a bit the game finished and I walked to my parents and Casper.

Casper hugging me "damn baby congrats you did way more then good" said Casper.

I smiled "I know thanks I can't believe I broke the school record man!" I said excitedly.

He laughed "I know your gonna be the next speedy Gonzalez if you keep it up" said Casper.

I laughed "whatever man but shit I know" I said smiling.

"Are you going home or staying with Casper" asked my mom.

"The teammates want to go out to eat then from there I'll go home" I said.

"Okay do you have money" asked my dad.

"Yeah I do" i said.

"Okay then it was good seeing you run mija see you at home" said my mom.

Then they walked away as I waved goodbye. Casper just hugged me.

I smiled "it's fine they're just hurt still" I said trying to cheer myself up. It lowkey hurt that they weren't even excited. I mean I broke the school record! And it hasn't been broken since the 90's so yes I was extremely happy and proud of myself.

"Alright then do you want me to pick you up after you get done eating or at the school" asked Casper.

"At the school the coach won't let me leave" I said.

"Okay just let me know" said Casper.

"I will" I said.

We kissed and we said goodbye. And I went to the locker room took a quick shower got ready and we all left to go eat. After we got done eating we made our way to the school and Casper was already waiting for me. I said bye to my teammates. Then I made my way to his car and we left back to my house. My parents were asleep already so me and Casper just went to my room.
