The Coach and The Player

The Coach & The apology

Chapter Thirteen:

I woke up today, and just stared at the ceiling. I kept replaying back in my mind what both Tucker and Karah had said. I still can't believe I lost both of them in the same day. I rose up out of bed feeling crappy as ever! I didn't even feel like going to school today, but today was the big game and I couldn't miss it. I got myself together and my duffle bag together and went in the car. Without even eating breakfast I didn't even feel like myself, because I felt so empty inside.

I got out of the car, and made my way to my classes. But I had to stop at my locker first to put my textbooks in my locker. Karah's locker was right to mine so I was bound to see her and I did. She came right to her locker and didn't say anything to me. But I guess I deserved it for not listening to her, and all. I put my books in my locker,and went to my first class.

I just was slowly waiting for time to go by. I really didn't feel like being in school nor did I care what was happening all around me. It was lunchtime and usually I'd sit with Karah but she wasn't talking to me so I just ate lunch in the bathroom. Which I hadn't done since the sixth grade. All I had for lunch was a turkey sandwich, and some Orange Juice. I started crying in the stall. I felt like this was all my fault like I was the victim. I made my way out of the bathroom stall, and wiped my tears. I came out of the bathroom and bumped into someone. I didn't even have the heart to say sorry. I was too broken up to say anything.

"I'm sorry". The voice said.

I didn't say anything. I looked up at the person with the tears in my eyes. Through the blur in my eyes I saw brown hair it was Tucker.

"It's fine". I said and turned the other way.

"Woah 24 hold on". Tucker said grabbing my arm

"Can you let go of my arm, and not call me that? And what do you want"? I said not giving a care in the world.

"Fine I'm sorry. I just wanted to know you've been". Tucker said.

"You wanna know how I've been I've horrible. Okay so you got what you wanted". I said.

"That's not what I wanted. I didn't want anything of this but you just kept on digging and digging". Tucker said.

"What you should be worrying about is how and if we're gonna beat Berkwood tonight. You shouldn't be worrying about me anymore remember? You said all we are now are acquaintances on the field so that's how it should be". I said.

"I'm sorry. I just wish we coulda been something more you know? Cause I really did like you". Tucker said.

"Yeah I guess so". I said and turned around leaving him.

I walked down the hallway passed all of the classrooms. I heard a door open, but I didn't turn around.

"Raquel". The voice yelled down the hall.

I kept on walking and pushed open the door.

"Raquel". The voice repeated before the doors closed.

I walked out of the door someone grabbed me, and I flinged my arm.

"Tucker can you stop touching me"?! I said screaming.

"Oh my god I'm so sorry". I said It was Aaron.

"Wow, Raquel are you okay"? Aaron asked me.

"Yeah why wouldn't I be"? I asked.

"Cause you're not. I can tell when you're lying we went out for 2 months you know". Aaron said.

"Okay, I'm not okay". I said.

"Okay do you wanna talk about it"? Aaron asked.

"No I just wanna vent my feels like". I said.
