Julia's POV

"We're all tied up with Golden Eagles and the Red Hawks! Its been a long game that seems to drag on forever! But there's no time to waste. Each team has to decide, its now or never!"

"Oh sugar mama!" Alex screams. "My back dammit!"

"Would you stop being so dramatic?" Coach scolds him which earns a chuckle from everyone.

"Okay guys. So I know you all are tired. But we can win this. We can still do this. College scouts are here to see each and everyone of you. Do this for you. Go out there and make a win for yourselves. Your gonna make yourselves proud and push yourself to do your very best. So what do you say?"

"Let's go Golden Eagles!" We shout and head back on the field.

I've never felt so exhausted in my life.

Its been a non stop game. Tackling and scoring, injuries and cheers. I can honestly say that I'm tired now.

But college scouts are here. They came to recommend the best players. So that means that I have to continue to try my best.

"Oh! And the Golden Eagles have the ball in their control! Let's see if they can make it!"

Once that ball is passed to me, I ran. I ran so fast to the point where no one was behind me. The goal was mine.

I was so close. So close.

But in a flash, I wasn't.

The ball was quickly taken away from me rather brutally. I never thought my ankle would have hurt this bad. And now, I'm left on ground. And I scream so hard.

I couldn't do anything as the other team neared closer to their goal. And I certainly couldn't do anything when they scored. And it just accord to me that after working so hard...

We had lost the game.

"It was just a muscle contract, nothing serious. You'll be find by tomorrow. Just don't put too much pressure on it and keep using this ice pack." Nadine says hugging me and walks out the room. Just then, a knock follows right after.

"You scared me." I chuckle at Jace's relieved expression.

"I'm not about to die." I shake my head.

"I know, but you still scared me." He sits beside me on his bed. "I got some good news." I raise my brows in confusion. "The college scouts were asking for you."

"Really?" I sit up. "Why?"

"They want to offer you a scholarship."

"But, my ankle-"

"That doesn't matter."

"But we didn't win-"

"That doesn't matter either."

"Wow." I run my hands through my hair in amazement. I've always wanted to become a professional football player. Football has been my passion since forever.
