A Wish Upon A Star (Emison)

Changing

Emily POV

We're tied 44-44 with the Titans and this is our last chance. There's 10 seconds on the clock and once I say the word, it's time.

I look at the stands, everyone on the Sharks' side are clutching each other nervously. "COME ON ETHAN!" Hanna shouts from the cheerleaders. I turn my head towards them and Alison stares at me.

She smiles at me encouragingly, nodding, adding a wink after.

I nod back at her and shout, "HIKE!"

Everyone sprints and I have the ball in my hands. I search the men sprinting, screaming for the ball but then I see it.

Noel is the farthest but the most open.

I wind up my arm, then throw with all of my strength. Noel is in the end zone and it's as if the world slows down. Our homecoming game. If we lose, we're screwed. I'm screwed.

While the ball is in the air, the buzzer sounds and everyone gasps, going silent as they stare at the ball. My eardrums are filled with the sound of my heart beat. Please. Please.

But then it happens. Noel catches the ball.

Touchdown.

Everyone goes wild as they run down the stands. It's almost a huge blur while the guys pick me up, cheering my name. "ETHAN! ETHAN! ETHAN!"

I chuckle and see Noel on top of everyone too. He looks at me and we high five. "Way to go man."

I grin, "you too."

I get down from everyone and look around, spotting Alison in her uniform, smiling at me, "way to go superstar."

I grin, "thank you. I try my best." I pat my chest sentimentally, making her giggle. God that giggle. I take my helmet off and she stares into my eyes, then wraps her arms around my neck, kissing me. 

I smile into her lips and she pulls away, "what was that for?" I ask and she smiles, shrugging, "guess I just wanted to. Like how you did before."

I stare at the blonde in awe and she grins, "you're going right? To the party?"

I nod, "yeah. I'll see you there." She shrugs, "possibly. See ya superstar." She kisses my cheek and walks away with Hanna and Aria. The guys come up to me, "yo Sky. Let's go man! We got you a present!" Sean Ackard grins brightly at me as Noel holds up a letterman jacket for me.

I smile, "really?"

"Fuck yeah bro. Try it on." I slide the jacket on and feel the warmth and pride in it. "Wow," I whisper and they all chuckle.

"Dude. Perfect fit. Let's get out of here."

Alison POV

"Maybe I could hook up with-" "your boyfriend?" I quirk an eyebrow at Hanna before she can continue her sentence. She groans, "crap. Forgot about that."

My head shakes side to side with a laugh, "whatever. I have plans tonight." I smirk and Hanna, Aria and Spencer grin at me, "with Ethan?"

I bite my lip happily, thinking about the emerald eyed boy. "Yeah. I don't know. We always flirt. We kissed today. Twice and he's just...perfect. I want him. So bad."

"Just be careful, okay?" Hanna says and Spencer nods, "we don't want to see you get hurt again. Plus, if you do, Emily would kill us for not watching after you good enough."

I scoff, "Emily doesn't give a shit about me. She didn't even care enough to say goodbye." I suddenly find the window interesting so I stare out it, hearing Aria sigh behind me, "Ali you know that's not true. Emily loves you."
