Grace's POV
I kicked the ball up to my teammate, I ran up farther than he kicked it back to me, I brought it up to the net and took my shot. It went in.
I ran back to my team's side with the rest of my team and we all celebrated. I just got the tie breaker goal which made us the champions of this tournament.
My team made a huge group hug around me and we were all smiling and laughing.
After getting changed I walked out of the change room to wait for my team.
While I was waiting a guy from the other team walked up to me.
"Congrats, I will admit that was a pretty sweet goal," he said with a smile. I looked behind him and saw four other guys smirking at us.
"Thanks Herron," I replied, reading the last name off of his jersey.
"Zach," he said and put his hand out.
"Grace," I replied and shook his hand.
"I was wondering if I could actually get your number?" Zach asked shyly.
"Sure!" I replied. Zach gave me his phone and I put in my contact as Cute Soccer Girl😘🥰. I handed Zach his phone and he smiled at the contact name.
"Thanks," he said with a smile.
"No problem, talk to you later," I replied. Zach smiled with a nod and left, leaving me wondering what on earth just happened.
*the next day*
I opened my phone and saw a text from an unknown number.
Unknown: Hey it's Zach! *changed "unknown" to "Cute Soccer guy" Me: Hey Zach! Cute Soccer Guy: I was wondering if you would want to hang out today? Me: sure! Where and when? Cute Soccer Guy: The small café on Main Street in an hour? Me: sure! See you then!
I got out of my bed and quickly showered then changed into jeans and a nice pink t-shirt. I curled my hair and did my makeup then it was time to go.
*at the café*
I walked into the café and saw Zach sitting at a table alone, I walked over to him and sat down across from him.
"Hey!" he welcomed.
"Hey! How are you?" I asked.
"Pretty good, how about you?"
"Good!"
"Do you want anything? I can go get us something," he offered.
"Just a small coffee please," I said with s smile.
"Ok, I'll be right back," Zach said then left.
When he came back he handed me a small coffee then sat back down.
"How much do I owe you?" I asked.
"Nothing, my treat," he answered.
"Thank you," I said as I blushed.
"No problem."
Zach and I talked for hours at the café then decided to go to a park to hang out.
We stayed at the park for another few hours then decided to call it a day and go home.
*a few months later*
Over the past few months Zach and I have been hanging out almost everyday, and I've started to grow feelings for him. I mean he's into the same sport as me, he's sweet, kind, caring, cute, there's nothing else I could ask for.
I walked to the park where Zach and I were going to meet up so we could hang out for the day.
I walked up to Zach and saw the back of a sign beside him. He smiled at me then flipped it around. I started reading it out loud quietly.
"You're as sweet as an ice cream swirl, so will you be my girl?" I read. I looked up at Zach with tears in my eyes and nodded. "Of course," I answered. Zach put down the sign and hugged me tightly, I put my head into his neck and he held me closely.
When we pulled away we smiled at each other.
"Consider this our first date," he said then took my hand. He started leading me off to an unknown place.
