That Drop of Rain

Sports

   That was probably the best first day ever! Matt is a great conversationalist. He can talk to you about almost anything. Cars. Sports. Hairdos. You name it. Anyways, he is so sweet, kind, and super friendly. Somehow we ended up partners in Chem Lab and in Biology.
   I thought his schedule was wrong but he is actually really smart and made the football team today. He just showed up to their practice, talked to the coach, showed off some moves in a scrimmage and bam, he made the team. I wish it was like that for me sometimes.
   The next day, he was hanging out the football team in the cafeteria. Yes, I was watching him, well at least until he saw me. Before I knew it he sat down next to me.
   "Hey!" He said.
   "Hi!" I replied.
   "Are you going to game on Friday?"
   " Um, no. I don't go to football games."
   "Oh. I just thought...I mean..," he said
   "Oh she's going to this game," Brittney just had to put her two sense in. "She'll be there."
   "Great!" He said, "I'll see you there."
   Matt walked off seemingly happy. I don't know why though. "How could you do that?! You know I hate football games!"
   "Sorry but it's obvious he likes you. I mean why else would he ask if you were going to one of HIS games?" Brittney smiled and continued eating her salad. I smiled to.
   Next period was gym. Our lesson was in volleyball which is such an easy sport. Frankly, the only one I'm good at.
  "Hey Madison!" It was Matt. "Your pretty good with that spike. It's kinda of a shame you won't tryout next week."
   "Hey! Thanks but your right. I won't tryout."
   "Well you should." He said pulling me aside. "Your really good and I don't know much about the team but I'm pretty sure they need you on it."
    "I'll think abut it. But if I were you I wouldn't count on it.
