The soccer practice ended, and the boys went to the lockers to shower and change themselves. Jonah was checking that nothing from his stuff was missing from his bag, he was very careful with his things. He checked his cellphone; his uniform and his hygiene things were all inside.
"What did Amy Wilkes want?" Danny asked putting on some deodorant.
"Just wanted to thank me. For defending her today." Jonah answered drinking water.
" Yeah, everyone heard what you did for her today. Are you two a thing now?" Brad Coleman mockingly asked.
Brad Coleman was the previous soccer captain before Jonah came to school. Jonah was told by Danny how Brad was so arrogant and cocky, as he would act as he was the only player on the team, and would hardly even pass the ball during games. However, everything changed when Jonah entered the team, his teammates obviously preferred him since he did play with his teammates as a the team they are and Coach Carter noticed that he also noticed Jonah was an inspiration to the others and decided to name him captain instead.
Brad got upset when he heard the news, he spoke disappointed to Coach Carter and asked him not to give his position to the new guy. To his bad luck Coach Carter did not change his mind. Ever since then there was a dispute between Brad and Jonah, and even though Jonah tried to get along with him, Brad would always be a jerk to him. Eventually Jonah got tired of trying to get along with him and just decided to ignore him. However, Brad would always try to push his nerves.
"Not your business, Coleman. But no, we are not a thing. " Jonah answered giving him an icy look.
"Okay, i thought you were having lady issues and that's why you were hanging out with a girl like Amy Wilkes. " Brad snorted.
Brad wanted to provoke him, to make Jonah hit him so Coach Carter had a reason to bench him from the upcoming game. Jonah knew that was what he wanted and he was not going to fall in his trap, he was going to show him he was more mature than he was.
"I have never had lady issues, i can date the girl i want. As simple as that."
"Are you really sure about that? I bet you can't make Amy Wilkes fall for you. "
Jonah couldn't believe the stupidities that were coming from his mouth. He learned from his mother, that girls should always be treated with respect, and has always had her words in his minds. That's why he never played with girls' feelings as other guys did, because he knew it was incorrect. He would never let his mother down with some stupid crap from Brad.
"I won't play your stupid game, because I, unlike you I have grown up and i am not a kid. " He answered grabbing his stuff and passing next to him without even giving him a look.
" I need you to sign a permission note for me to go to a school trip. " Amy said to Sean as they ate for dinner the leftovers of the Chinese food they bought last night.
"Where?"
"To the Amphibian and Reptile Laboratory, it's on Friday. "
" I don't know, i have a bad feeling about this. " He answered taking his dish to the sink and washing it.
"Common Sean, if I don't go, I'll have to watch a boring documentary that lasts two hours. Plus writing an essay about it."
"Let me think about it. Go to sleep, I'll wash your dish."
"Good night, see you tomorrow." She said walking to her room.
Amy was surprised Sean would act that way. He was very overprotective with her since her parents died at the plane accident, but she never expected him to act like this with a school trip. It was the first time he acted like this. She changed to her pjs and went to sleep hoping he would change his mind in the morning. As he drove her to school next morning, they were both quiet and Amy decided to break the silence.
