Toni POV

The last bell had rung for the day to end and I walk into the locker room and all my gear was waiting for me. I put on my compression under shirt and pads then I started looking for cups but I couldn't find any. I started walking to the coaches office. I knocked and he told me to come in.

"Hey, coach you got a sec?"

"Yea, what's up Mikaelson having second thoughts?" Coach had asked me.

"No no I was wondering if you have any protective cups?" I say kinda nervous.

He looks at me with a raised eyebrow.

"Why would you need anything like that?" He asked me curiously.

"Well coach you see, I'm intersex and I will need one."

"Ohhh I see it's not a problem."

I smile knowing he didn't judge me.

"Okay what size do you need Mikaelson?"

"Ummm, i look at the different sizes and read them on the packaging. I need an XL sir."

He looks at me wide eyed. He laughs and shakes his head and just says,"damn."

I look at him with a skeptical look,"What?"

"It's just most of the boys on the team needs a Medium and sometimes there are a few large here and there but this is my first time as head coach I pass out a XL cup." And he laughs again.

I just smile and say, "well I'm blessed beyond sir."

He hands me the cup and as I'm walking back towards the locker room I see Cheryl.

"Come to wish me luck Bombshell?" I say with a smirk and she blushes.

"Yea I actually want to see if you are as good as you say you are." she says while folding her arms against her chest.

"Well lucky for you I am."

She kisses me on the cheek and walks out towards the field swaying her hips side to side and I watch while biting my lip.

Tryouts

I run out on the field and wait for coach. A tall Asian guy walks up to me.

"Hey I'm Reggie Mantle wide receiver."

I shake his hand, "I'm Toni Mikaelson Quarterback.

He nods his head, "so you taking St. Clair spot?"

" That I am. He is a douchebag and needs to be put in his place."

He laughs and says," I'm starting to like you already."

Archie runs up to me,"You look ready Toni he says looking at my gear.

" I was born ready Andrews

" I was born ready Andrews."

This tall dark skin kid runs up to us, "I'm mad dog."

I nod my head and say, "I'm Toni."

Coach blows his whistle and starts talking. "Okay just because you were on the team last year doesn't mean you're making it this year so I want defense on the other side of the field. Offense on this side."

Everyone on defense started jogging to the opposite side.

"Okay receivers you're working with coach Morris. Linemen you are with Coach Gregory. Running backs with coach waters. And Quarterbacks you are with me any questions."

" No sir ! The team yells as we all go to the spots.

"Okay St. Clair since you were the starting quarterback last year let's see what you got."

He smirks at me and says, "you're not going to even make the cut."

I just say," your Ass is going to be bench riding all fucking year."

I look behind me on the bleachers and I see a group of girls and Kevin but the one that caught my eye was the red head. She smirks at me and I give her a wink putting my helmet on.

I watch Nick play and this dude sucks ass. He overthrew his receiver almost every play. He got sacked like 3 times and now it was my time.

I threw the ball perfectly and even made a touchdown with a Hail Mary play. I ran the ball without getting sacked and had the most completions.

After tryouts

Tryouts was over and coach huddled us up.

"Okay listen up team we have a new Quarterback and it's Toni Mikaelson."

Everyone clapped except Nick.

"Are you kidding me coach this is complete bullshit?!" Nick said furious.

"How is it bullshit st. Clair,"Coach started.
"She threw all her passes completed and managed not to get sacked on any play your ass is second string Quarterback no excuses!"

I just look at him and smile.

"Okay Mantle, Andrews, Mikaelson stay back." Everyone else dismissed see you at 6:00 practice in the morning." We stay back to see what coach wanted.

"Okay you three are all captains."

We nod our heads still listening.

"It's your jobs to make sure the team is doing right around school okay so keep it together okay."

"Yes sir!"We all say.

"Okay now you all go get showered I will see you in the morning."

They walk off and I start taking off my gear and shirt looking at Cheryl.

"Well congrats on making the team."

I smile at her and say, "I was showing out for you."

She blushes looking away.

"Well I was wondering if I can have your number if it's not to straight forward." I say kinda nervous.

She looks at me and nods handing me her phone. I put my number in and hand it back to her.

"There I sent you a text so you should have my number." Cheryl says while biting her lip.

I smile and she starts to walk away.

"Hey!" I yell after her.

She turns around and looks at me.

"Don't hide when you blush I think it's adorable." I say with a smirk.

"Go get showered you smell of sweat and testosterone." She says with her hands on her hips.

I laugh and head to the shower.

I finished up and start walking to my car when Nick walks up to me.

"Dude what the fuck do you want." I say aggravated looking at him.

"Okay first you take my girl and now you take my spot on the football team.What else are you gonna take you fucking dyke?" He says with his face red.

"Okay, next thing I'm going to take is your fucking life if you ever call me a dyke again!" I say with my fist in a tight ball.

He shakes his head and walks off towards his car.

I put my gear in my trunk and get in heading home.

I swear this dude is going to be my next meal if he keeps this up.
