Astrology Girl

Capri Nelson and the Goblet of Puke

<<<PIC OF LEE>>>

I sat on the bleachers and copied down the names for the boys trying out for soccer or football. There were a lot of people trying out for soccer, which surprised me. Back at the all boys' private school, if you weren't into football, you ended up being one of those creeps standing by the trashcans in the parking lot.

I couldn't help but feel awkward being the only female surrounded by who knows how many sweaty boys. And I was not happy about that at all. I used to go to an all girls school so this was definitely a change in scenery for me. I was starting to question what made me choose this. 

"Capricorn! Do me a favor and grab my megaphone from my office! It's right next to the boys' locker room!" the coach yelled at me.

I did an odd jog/walk back to the locker rooms and searched for his office. Which probably took me at least 15 minutes. Luckily, I had a school map brochure tucked into the waistband of my green athletic shorts. It felt good to be prepared. I slowed down as I got closer to his office, and tried to catch my breath. As soon as I found the office I opened the door, and for the second time in one day I was scarred beyond belief. I could feel the throw up in my mouth. So much for being prepared.

To put it the mildest way, I had stumbled (unfortunately) upon a couple who were currently displaying their affection for each other. The rated R way.

"Oh gosh!" I shrieked.

The violators' heads whipped up to the source of the noise.

I became even more scarred, "Cover yourselves! Will you? My eyes! They're burning!"

The female clutched her shirt to her chest, but the male made no effort to cover up.

I covered my eyes and pointed to him, "You! Put on some clothes for crying out loud!"

"You don't like what you see? I worked hard on this six pack. C'mon, it's not that bad. Hey, you might wanna join us!"

I pulled my hand away from my face, and seeing my disgusted face he stated, "Or maybe not. I'm just kidding. Geez. Don't get your panties in a wad. What are you even doing here? This is the coach's office."

"Are you serious? What am I doing here? What are you doing here? Get out!" I shrieked.

The girl threw me a dirty look and rushed out, while adjusting her shirt. The guy put his hands up and sighed, "And there goes my entertainment. My name's Devin by the way."

"And I don't care, get out." I retorted. He chuckled, grabbed his shirt, and slipped away.

I rolled my eyes and searched for the coach's megaphone. I quickly found it and got out of that office as fast as I could.

I got back to the coach, thankfully in one piece, and handed him his megaphone.

"What took you so long? You get lost?" The coach laughed.

I winced and felt my face go red,"Something like that."

Suddenly, I heard a retching sound.

Coach Bayer made a disgusted sound and yelled into his megaphone. "Kravinsky. Go sit on the bench and compose yourself. Clean up your puke if you can even stand up. Somebody get Coach Wilkins. Everybody else keep jogging!"

Turning to me he sighed, "Capricorn, do me a favor and grab that boy a water and a towel?"

I nodded. As soon as I walked over to the bleachers, I handed the boy a water bottle and a towel.

"Thanks." He muttered. I nodded, and awkwardly stood there.

"I think I'm gonna-" The boy looked horrified and opened his mouth and threw up on my shoes.
