Saturday morning they still had practice for the kids . The team really wanted to go to Paris . Indigo was feeling a little grumpy. She grabbed a cropped sweater and jeans which took forever to put on and hobbled down the stairs to eat breakfast. "Honey you Okay you seem mad. "No mom I'm fine It just sucks that I'm on crutches." "I know sweetie, listen Jazzy and Troy are going to take you and Zay to practice is that okay ?" "Yeah I'm not mad at him does he think that I am ?" "Yeah he thinks your really mad at him ." "Oh no I'll tell him when he gets here." Then the door bell ran. "Speak of the devil , love you see you latter." "Bye love you too." She opens the door for Troy. "Hey Indigo I'm so sorry I don't mean too ." "Troy I'm not mad at you I promise . You can stop apologizing you didn't do anything wrong." "Are you sure." "Yes I promise." "Would you like to come over tonight. I got this new war video game that I think you might like." "I think I'll like it too." Indigo said looking dead in his eyes. Troy got closer to her .

Indigo flashback : I remember that last kiss we had almost a month ago. It was warm and friendly and nice . His hands were warm around my waist . I don't know what to do now . I wounded what happens now .

"Your sweater is cute." Troy said. "What ?" Indigo said confused. "I was just saying I like your sweater." "Oh thanks should we get going." "Um yup let's go." She hobbled down the stairs to the car.

Troy and Zay helped Indigo down to the field and all the kids ran up to her . "Are you Okay ?!" All the kids said "Yeah I'm okay ." "Who did this how did it happen." Another said. "Well you know how Troy messed with me yesterday ?" "Yeah." All the kids laughed and giggled . "Well I sprayed silly spray at him he chased me . It was dark and I tripped over a rock and he landed in my ankle." Indigo said. "Ooooo." The kids asked. Are you okay Lynn singed. She sighed back thanks.

All the kids ran off and started practice. Indigo sat up front watching them practice. Time went on and Indigo got bored. It was lunch time and Troy cane over with a sandwich .

"Hey I brought Turkey subs you want one." Troy said. "No thanks I'm not hungry." "Here at lest take the water and protein bar. Your gonna get hungry." "Why must you be so kind." "I'm not just looking out for my teammates." "Right right right." "You still coming over tonight ?" "Yeah sure." "Hey you Okay did I say something wrong." "No everything's fine." "Okay I gotta help the kids but I'll come visit you at snack time and bring you apple juice." Troy said with a laugh. "My god your such the 5 year old." "Why thank you here take the sandwich." Troy throw the sandwich at her and she laughed and took a bite . "Thanks Troy." "No problem see u in a sec."

He ran off and joined the kids and they all cheered and laughed . Troy was like a role model for those kids. They all looked up to him which Indigo thoughts was the cool at thing. Lynn came up to Indigo . Lynn you Okay ? Indigo signed . Yeah are you ? She signed back . Yes just hate crutches . Oh it's going to be okay . Yeah I hope so , now going the group they are waiting on you. Lynn smiled joined the group.

After camp . "Here is your Apple juice and animal crackers my lady." Troy said with a British accent. "Thanks Troy I'm going to help with check out can you hand me my crutches." "Yup here you go. See you soon."

Indigo hobbled over to the check out and greates the parents and sent them home to the kids. The last people's their were Lynn and Lily. Next thing she saw was a tall dark boy with nice hair walking down the path . Lilly ran up to him while Indigo and Lily were signing .

"So this is the famous Indigo." The boy said . "Um Yes this is who are you ." "I'm Mike I'm Lilly and Lynn step brother. Your an amazing football player and Lynn loves you ." "Oh well thank you ." "Yeah I've been watching you play for a while , your really good we hope you try out for the high school team." "Thanks are you in high school." "Yup I'm a freshman , they think you could play varsity level next year." "Are you serious !!" "Yup." Indigo started laughing and he joined in.

"Hey Troy who's that guy ?" A young guy came up to Troy. Troy looked over where they guy was pointing and saw Indigo laughing with a guy . "Oh I don't know maybe one of her friends I don't know ?" "Oh well see you latter man." "See ya next week."

Troy watched Indigo talk to the boy and they seemed to be having a pretty great time. The. They hugged and continued to talk . Troy went up to then .
