Football Tryouts

Chapter 12

Maui's POV

Two days later... Football tryouts...

   I'm arriving to football tryouts with Jack by my side. I somehow managed to convince Jack to tryout for the team despite him not having much football experience. It's comforting to have a friend with me, especially when having to deal with Tamatoa... Ugh. He's walking around the field like he's the shit. Well he is shit, just not the shit if you catch my drift. Jack and I put on the gear that was delivered to us yesterday and step out onto the middle of the field where everyone else is. I have to keep reminding myself that I'm doing this for myself, not to try to compete with Tamatoa, that just happens to be a bonus. Tamatoa goes up and down the line of guys trying out, studying them carefully. When he gets to Jack and I, he growls at both of us and spits in our faces. I growl and spit right back. What a piece of shit he is. Oh I'm going to love making a fool out of him today. 

  "Aw what's wrong Tama? Did you think we were going to cower in fear from you? We're here and we're going to make it onto this time. You may be captain, but the coach has final say over who makes it and who doesn't." He rolls his eyes and continues down the line. I can see that I've gotten to him because he continues to grumble under his breath and his face is beet red. The coach blows a whistle and we run through some basic plays that Tamatoa shouts at the top of his lungs. Jack and I manage to run through all of them successfully, pissing off Tamatoa even further. The coach even praises our approach to each play. Tamatoa then orders us to do a few more drills before the coach puts a hand to stop us, indicating that he's come to a decision about who he wants on the team and who he doesn't want. 

   The coach thumbs through the list attached to his clip board and calls out of names of the people that he's interested in joining the team. Out of the guys who tried out, which was at least forty, only ten actually made the cut. The most shocking thing about that is in that group of ten is Jack and I. We stare at the coach in disbelief before giving each other a friendly body slam. Holy shit we actually made the team! This is awesome! As Jack and I are having our moment, Tamatoa comes over and breaks it up. "I can't believe you two assholes made the team. Well enjoy this moment because here on out, it's going to be hell for both. As for you Maui, you better watch how you speak to me because if you don't, your girlfriend will be my next victim. It'd be an awful shame to have to hurt such a pretty thing as Moana." 

    Anger boils in me. "How do you know she's my girlfriend?" He smirks an ugly smirk at me. "You think I haven't noticed that way you act around her. You practically play bodyguard to her. She's a big girl Maui, she can handle herself. She doesn't need to protect her every second. In fact, I hope I run into her again soon. It's been a few days since we've had a little chat. As much fun as Ariel is, Moana's even more fun. I wonder what she'd be like in bed." I try to lunge at him but Jack stops me. "Maui, calm down. He's just trying to provoke you." I glare at Tamatoa with all of the hate that I can muster, which is quite a lot while taking a deep breath to try to myself down. Jack's right. He's just trying to set me off for his own amusement. The coach pushes him out of the way to tell us a few things before we leave the field, the main one is that our first practice is on Monday. I'm so ready. I'm going to dominate and eventually take Tamatoa's place as captain. That asshole only has two more years to go anyway. It's perfect. 

 An hour later...

  Jack and I lingered on the field for a few before deciding to take the long way back to Moana and Ariel's dorm. Both of us wanted to tell them the news of us making the football team. When we get there, Moana and Ariel are deep in discussion about something, though they look up at us with lovely smiles when they see that we're standing there. Ariel throws herself into Jack's arms and Moana throws herself into mine. We tell them that we made the team and they squeal adorably. Mo presses her forehead to mine. "I told you Maui. This is your big break. Make me proud." I peck her on the lips. "I promise you that I will angel. Will you promise to cheer me on the sidelines?" She kisses me on the forehead. "I wouldn't have it any other way."
