The Girl With One Leg

Chapter 14

I'm so sorry! I've had the worst writers block ever so I haven't been able to write for the last month or so. But here is a double update for you all.

I was also wondering If you could give me your opinions on me maybe writing a new book? It would be greatly appreciated.

Anyway, here are the next two chapters! Enjoy!

It has been a week since me and Ryan started going out. it's been amazing. Now that we've shown our feelings towards each other it makes us both happier. Now we just need to get Brent and Sophie together. I'm happier than ever.

I was walking to my next lesson with Mia and Mason by my side. We all had PE together which I was so excited for. A few days ago, I got an email from the school saying that Doctor Paige has allowed me to do my sports and I was overjoyed. We all went to our separate changing rooms and got changed into our sports gear. I walked into the sports hall and I was ecstatic to see that we were playing my favourite sport.... FOOTBALL! Mia came running over to me holding a bib.

"Miss High wants you to be captain of one team for todays lesson but guess who's the captain of the other" Mia said as she pointed to the other side of the hall. As I had guessed Rebecca was wearing the opposing coloured bib that had captain written on it. She looked over and glared daggers at me. I winked and waved back. She rolled her eyes and turned around to talk to some other girls. I whistled and waved my hands and the group of people who I'm presuming were on my team ran over to me. I was happy to know that Mia and a few other nice people were on my team. I told them all the plan. Remembering my tactics and training from years before. The adrenaline already began to rush through me making me feel much more alive. They all understood what I had said and agreed with my ideas.

Miss high shouted for us to get into our positions. As captains, Rebecca and I were stood in the middle ready for kick off. Miss high walked back to the benches and blew the whistle. Instantly I took the ball from the middle and dribbled to my end of the pitch, dodging the opposing team as I did. I kicked it over to Mia who was free and the tall blonde boy on my team, Sam I think his name was, and I followed her. Mia had a good opening by the goal, scoring a goal making our whole team shout in delight. I looked over to Rebecca and she was fuming to say the least as she was screaming at some poor short girl about how she failed at being a defender. The girl began to cry, and Miss High ran over and took her off the pitch. I was relieved at that, the poor girl.

The game carried on extremely well. We had scored two more times and Rebecca's team once. We were both doing quite well, and I was very pleased with how my team was playing. We had a few minor things that we could work on. We defended amazingly, and I was so proud of my team for keeping up with our tactics. Communication between us was excellent. We didn't need to say much but we all knew what needed to be done. Our tackles were great, but they could do with a bit of improving.

I felt amazing. It was such a familiar feeling getting this rush of adrenaline and excitement whenever I played. It got to half an hour in and everything was going to just fine. That was until Rebecca tripped Mia up, breaking her ankle in the process. She screamed in the process making me run over to her. "where does it hurt" I asked as I lifted her leg up gently and inspected the already swollen ankle.

"Everywhere" she screamed out again. Two subs came on and took her to the medical room. Now I was furious with Rebecca, she thinks that she can get away with this, well she is definitely wrong. The game restarted and now I was at the angriest I'd ever been. Rebecca was smirking the entire time knowing how mad I was. But, no matter how angry and upset I was with Rebecca, I wasn't going to do anything stupid.

I put all my anger into my game play. So did the rest of my team. We were charging like bulls. We played like our lives depended on it and Rebecca didn't seem happy at all.

It got to five minutes before the end of the game and both teams were drawing. I was nervous because I wanted to beat Rebecca, but I was excited because I knew we could do it. Miss blew the whistle for the last time and I flew into action. I took the ball from between someone's legs with lightening speed and passed it to someone on my team. They raced to the top of the pitch and got into an appropriate position and kicked. Time stopped. I watched Rebecca try and jump up but she slipped as she did so and fell, face first into the floor. The ball flew into the net and Miss High blew the whistle. I jumped up in joy. We won! Mia walked in with crutches and attempted to give me a thumbs up, but wobbled a bit so she just smiled and nodded, and I returned the same gesture. Rebecca had a bright red face and came storming over to me.

"you cheated!" she screeched in my face making me jump back slightly in surprise. I laughed at her.

"my team won fair and square Rebecca, you've always been a sore loser. Just understand that sometimes you aren't going to win" I replied smoothly as I made my way to Mia with a smirk on my face.

"Our team kicked butt!" Mia said enthusiastically making me giggle.

"yeah we did" I replied as I looked over at Rebecca who was shouting at her team. "her poor team" I sighed.

"yeah, she needs to calm down. I think she might turn green in a minute" Mia grumbled as we both burst out laughing. This has got to be one of the best football matches in a long long time.
