Getting undressed then dressed again in front of all these people wasn't fun. Don't get me wrong, it's not like I'm shy or something like that, I simply don't enjoy people seeing me naked. And I'm guessing Louis feels the same way, because he kept his shirt on and just wore jersey on top of it.
Liam, Louis and I were the last to come out of that locker room. As we walked closer to the team who were already warming up, Louis started to tie his shoe. Couldn't he do that in the locker room? Geez, this guy was really slow. Liam took very small steps so Louis could catch up. For me, I just stood next to the lazt male and stared at the coach who was shifting between being an arse and being a sweetheart.
"Is he always like this?" I mumbled softly, only to see Louis finally up on his two feet.
Finally. It's about time we play some soccer. Now I haven't played in a while, but I'm quite sure I still have it in me.
"Well, at home he's much more nicer" Louis said with a small smile as he started walking towards the team again.
What? Don't tell me--
Shit.
I stood in my place dumbfounded, before Louis looked back at me with a small smirk "You coming?"
I nodded before taking a small run, and stopped when I was next to him.
The warm up was practically the same that we used to do in my old school, but here, the coach puts more pressure on them team. Except for me. He hasn't once mentioned me yet. Either I'm really good that I meet his expectation OR he doesn't bother me because it's my first day.
I'd rather go with the first option.
As the coach started dividing us into two teams, I was teamed up against Louis and Liam. Oh well, now I'll get to see if they're any good, which I think they am, because I can feel their smirks as Louis approached me, with Liam following.
"You better watch your back, Harold" Louis said with a faint.
"It's Harry" I said forcing a smile upon my face.
I could hear him chuckle before walking past me. I rolled my eyes before turning around and catching up with him. I put my hand on his shoulder and was about to talk when he quickly took a step back and looked at me with almost fearful eyes.
"Um... I.. I just wanted to apologize." I said looking at him, why was he acting this weird?
He gave me a questioning look, and I gave a small nod towards the coach "You know, what I said about your dad" I said with a one sided smile
"Stepdad" Louis said correcting me, though it seemed like he took so much pride in the coach being his stepdad. "And it doesn't really bother me what people think" He said before walking towards his team.
I turned around walking to my team, cursing myself the whole time back. I messed up. I shouldn't have judged the guy, especially not out loud. Though, how can he not care about what people think? I mean, I've tried that for so long, to just not care what those ignorant jerks think of me, but it never works, their words hit me like knives every single time.
The game was exhausting to say the least.
We ended up in a tie, then there was this one last goal. Who ever had it would win. Of course Louis and Liam cooperated on the last goal, and their team won. They're good, I'll give them that. No wonder they're captain and co-captain of the team.
"Since you're the new guy, you get to take the first shower" Louis said chuckling as he walked next to me. I couldn't help but laugh at his lame attempt.
