BRYNNS P.O.V

It was football time so me and Mackenna sat on the bleachers and waited for the game to start. When it did Marco kicked the ball to start the game. The kick was amazing as the ball soared across half of the field. But the other team caught it running about 6 yards before Hayes took em' down . We all cheered. By half time the score was tied 21 to 21. The halftime show was epic as the cheerleaders did a dance that included throwing Kalsee high in the air.After halftime the tied score stuck.  But finally when there was only 8 seconds left on the 4th quarter of the game Hayes scored breaking the tie leaving 5 seconds left for Marco to kick. He kicked the ball through the bars ( or whatever that "y" looking thing is😂😂😂) just barley but he still did it. The crowd cheered. We had won the game 21 to 28!!! The team ran to Hayes raising high up to their shoulders the chanted "Hayes!Hayes!Hayes!" What about Marco? I asked Mackenna. All he did was give us an extra point, we already won, she explained. I glanced down from the bleachers at Marco sitting alone on the benches watching the team pour Gatorade the coach while congratulating Hayes. I saw Kalsee run up to him. Expecting her to congratulate him Marco broke into a grin. She frowned at him and yanked up her sweater he was aparently sitting on. Im not gonna praise you! She snapped. You didnt help us win the game, it was all Hayes! Your nothing but the kicker! Then she pranced off to the rest of the team. WHOA THAT WAS LOW! I yelled angrily to Mackenna knowing she saw too. I know she agreed, even for Kalsee..

Im gonna go congratulate him i said climbing down the bleachers. Same Mackenna said following. But when we approched the benches Marco had already stood up to leave. The team then approched him whispering and laughing at him as they passed by. Each running up to him as if they were gonna praise him, but only laughing in his face and walking away. Me and Mackenna moved to eather side of Marco shooting daggers at the boys with our eyes. Whats wrong Hayes asked. I could not believe it. I heard Mackenna gasp. Then i burst. YOU DONT KNOW WHATS WRONG!?!?! YOUR TEAMMATES ARE OVER HERE ACTING LOW TOWARDS YOUR BEST FRIEND AND YOU NOT GONNA DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT!? WHAT, YOU JUST GONNA LAUGH ALONG LIKE ITS JUST ANOTHER JOKE!? THAT IS SO MEAN! Calm down im sorry Hayes said, i got caught up in the moment he then turned to Marco, sorry dude he said patting him on the back, you did great today. Marco didnt respond he just bit his lip and looked away trying to hide the tears that threatenes to flow from his eyes. Why is a little hottie like you sticking up for a dumb kid like Marcus over there? One of the players asked me. Its MARCO M-A-R-C-O and because he is my friend and im not mean like you. The player rolled his eyes. Dont you roll your eyes at me, i yelled at him. Put some respec on my name jerk! Make me, he said getting in my face. Your about as sharp as a bowling ball i snareled at him. That was a stupid mistake what you just said there! The boy growled. Please, i said backing away your breath is so bad you made hello kitty day bye to you. The boys "oooh'ed" but quickly dismissed it by walking to the lockerroom to change. Hayes looked at me with an unreadible expression.  Almost like he finally realized. I am nothing like the rest.
