I sighed as I closed my locker after putting away the supplies I didn't need, meaning everything except one notebook and a few pens, and looked over as I heard my best friend's eager voice squeal out my name, and smile as she jumps on me.

"Ugh, hi there." I say, laughing as she hugs me tight, just wrapped completely around me.

"I missed you so much." Y/N says and I laugh, setting her on her feet.

"You saw me last Thursday at practice." I say and she shrugs, opening the locker next to mine and tossing her bag into it before slamming it closed.

"That, my love, does not matter." She says, tapping my nose and I roll my eyes at her.

"Dykes." The quarterback says as he passes us, and of course, Y/N being the feisty little thing she is, she squares up to him.

"We're just best friends, you fucking meathead," she snaps and he glares at her before sucking his teeth and walking away. "He graduates this year, right?" She asks, turning to me and I nod.

"Yeah." I say and she nods, taking my schedule from me and comparing hers and mine.

"We have first, third, fourth, sixth and seventh together." She says, handing me both of our schedules before turning back to her locker.

"Forgot to get what you needed while trying to be dramatic?" I ask, raising a brow at her and she sighs.

"Shut up, Harris." She says, taking everything out of her bag except exactly what I kept, a notebook and a few pens and pencils.

"Of course we have seventh together, it's soccer." I say and she chuckles.

"I'm so glad the school finally got Coach Young to have an athletics class. It only took me bugging them and her all year last year to happen." Y/N says and I shake my head at her, handing her schedule to her, because the teachers want you to hand them your schedule personally or you won't get into class on the first day. "Come on, I don't want to be late to English." She says and I groan. English is her favorite subject, and my least favorite. She grabs my hand either way and drags me away from our lockers and to our class room, we hand the teacher our schedules and she checks it over before letting us in, we go in and sit on the side of the class room close to the door and get settled.

"So how are you and that JV keeper?" I ask, playing with my best friend's fingers as we wait for the bell to ring.

"We broke up yesterday." Y/N says and I look up at her.

"What? Really? You two were so cute together." I say and she shrugs

"It's whatever, we didn't really click." Y/N says and I look her in the eye.

"Bullshit."

"No, her name wasn't bullshit, it's Sapphire." Y/N retorts and I roll my eyes as said person walks into the classroom. I look between them and Y/N's smile drops as they make eye contact.

"Hey captains." Sapphire says before awkwardly shuffling off to the back corner of the class room and I look at my best friend as she sighs. The bell rings a moment later, and the teacher comes in along with a few of the students who were wasting time outside the classrooms, and waits for everyone to be seated to start speaking, if there are students talking, it's their fault they fail.
