You're My Target

Chapter 2

CHAPTER 2

a week had already passed. troy had began settling in to his new surroundings and seemed to be adjusting to his new school. he was a hockey player that transferred to this school just to be part of their team. he was getting close to some of his team mates and making friends.

"hey hey!! morning chumps" said a team member coming in throwing his dirty uniform in another members face.

"so new guy stalker, you seem to be adjusting well to our team. but i think youd do better if you stopped fantasizing about Jiyeon all day haha" one said jokingly.

"how do these things travel so fast.." Troy said..

"you're still a newbie.." they laughed.

the laughter stopped as the team captain Jang came into the locker room. "alright listen up" he said sternly. we got our first game coming up, the line ups are posted on these papers here.." he passed them around.

Troy read it, he was placed as a back up. although he expected it cause he was new, he was still disappointed.

"hey Jang, why not let the newbie play 2nd string since Kern isnt fully healed up yet.. after all its why he was transferred..".. before he could finish Jang chimed in.

"you think you can just waltz in here like some big tough all star city boy?" Jang said getting in Troys face. "well you can keep that fantasy in your demented little head with your jiyeon dreams." he tapped his finger a few times on troys head, to which troy pushed his hand away.

"thats the line up." Jang said and walked out of the room.

"sorry about that" Pryor said. "i shouldnt have butted into your business."

"dont worry about it. hes right you know." troy said trying not to make a big deal of it...

the following week was the teams first game. Troy watched from the bench. the game was close, but they lost in the end.

in the locker room the mood wasnt good. the team barely spoke as they showered and changed.

"its only the first game." Jang said. although his voice didnt sound very convincing. "we'll learn from this, and come out better next time... alright?" he threw his stick in his locker and slammed it shut before heading out.

"his pride is going to be our toughest opponent this year." Pryor said. "ill see you tomorrow bud." he said to troy as troy walked out.

Troy left the rink and entered the parking lot. there he saw jang and his girlfriend. Jang and Troy stared at each other for awhile, before Jang got into his car with his girl and drove off.

Troy pulled up his hood and started walking home.

a few days later Troy and Pryor sat in the court yard eating. Troy saw a girl walk by, that took his breath away like getting cross checked hard into the boards. Pryor looked as Troy's wide eyes followed her across the courtyard.

"man you really do stare like it's your job." Pryor said shaking his head.

Troy didnt budge.

"And you really go for the ones out of your reach dont you.." Pryor said still shaking his head... this time a little harder

Troy watched as the girl who wore a red vest, flipped her dark hair that had a slight part on the side out of her face, in that moment making eye contact with troy. Troy stiffened up a bit, trying to muster a smile.. the girl locked eyes with him, her expression remained the same, almost emotionless..
