Friends with Benefits or More?

Five.

Toni's POV

After School

5:00pm

So, I'm so psyched that Cheryl Bombshell is my girlfriend. I mean who wouldn't want to have to have the hottest girl in town as a girlfriend. Anyways, besides my amazing girlfriend, I'm about to go to football tryouts and I have been waiting and training for this for a couple of weeks now. Jordan's also trying out for the football team. I'm going for quarterback and he's going for wide receiver. It's currently 5pm, tryouts start at 6pm. Right now I'm sitting in my living room with Jordan and we are talking about tryouts. "Are you nervous, T?" Jordan asked me.

 "Well, yeah i guess. I mean I'm going up against Archie and I know he loves football as much as I do, so I'm scared he's gonna hate me if I steal his position," I said, truthfully. 

Jordan patted me on my back, "He won't, T. He'll understand," Jordan reassured me. I nodded my head and looked at the time. It was only 5:10pm.

 "I'm gonna take like a 30 minute nap," I said getting up off the couch. 

"Okay bro, I'll wake you up at like 5:40," He told me. I nodded my head and went upstairs to my room. I flopped on my bed and starred at the ceiling. I was almost asleep until my phone started ringing. I groaned and picked up my phone from my nightstand. I smiled at the name.

Bombshell

I answered the face time call, "Hey there, red," I smiled.

"Hey handsome, you excited for tryouts?" She questioned me.

"I mean, I guess. Kinda nervous though," I told her. I played with my hair, and bit my lip, nervously.

"Archie will understand, T. Don't worry about him. You're gonna kill it out there on that field," she smiled. I looked at her confused.

"How did you know I was worried about upsetting Archie?" I asked, genuinely curious.

She laughed, "I know you, T. You were playing with your hair a lot and doing that cute nervous lip bite," 

"Oh, haha," I said. "Well, red, I'm gonna take a quick nap before tryouts," I said to her.

"Okay, TT. Get some rest and I'll see you there," She smiled.

"I will, red. See you later, mamas," I smiled.

"See you later, handsome," she told me. I hung up and looked at the time. 5:25. I still have a couple minutes to get some rest. I pulled the covers over me and immediately fell asleep.

16 minutes later

"WAKE UP T!" I heard. I then felt a whole bunch of water on my head. I was soaked.

"WHAT THE HELL?!" I screamed at Jordan. 

"It's almost time to leave," he said, innocently. I rolled my eyes.

"Get the hell out of my room, J" I demanded. He laughed and walked out the door, shutting it. I took a quick shower before changing into some basketball shorts, a low cut tank top, some Nike socks, and my football cleats. I ran downstairs and it was 5:50pm. "MOMS! WE'RE LEAVING! COME ON JORDAN!" Jordan came running downstairs in his football attire. 

"Let's do this! Woo!" Jordan said running out the door.

"Good luck, boys! Have fun!" Ma yelled from the kitchen. (Ma-Piper/Mom-Alex)

"BYE MOMS!" I yelled to them and ran out to my car. I drove us to the high school. We ran around back to the field. I immediately see Cheryl cheering her heart out. She saw me and winked. I smiled and ran over to Coach Clayton. 

"Take a knee, guys!" He yelled. We all did as told and he started talking. "Welcome men, to hell on earth. I'm Coach Clayton, now a few things. I will not be disrespected on MY FIELD! Understand?!" He shouted/questioned.

"Yes sir!" We all yelled answering him.

"Good, next thing. Who's ready to play some football?!" He shouted. All the guys shouted a various range of yeah's and woo's. "That's what I'm talkin' about! QB's line up on this line! Everyone else, go warm up!" He yelled. The only QB's trying out were me and Archie.

 "Good luck, bro" Archie smiled at me.

"You too, Arch, we are still going to be friends after this...right?" I asked, nervously.

"Of course, man! We've been friends since 1st grade, I'm not gonna let football ruin that," H told me.

I smiled, "Okay, boys. This is the hardest position. You have to, not only be quick on your feet, but quick in your head. You will be team leaders, understand?" he questioned. We both nodded. "Okay, everyone huddle up!" He shouted. "We are gonna run the bulldog play!" He said. "Archie you're QB first, Toni sit this one out," He told me. I walked over and sat on the bench. I was watching the play. I felt two arms wrap around my neck. I turned around and saw my beautiful and amazing girlfriend. 

"Hey, baby" I smiled, and got up from the bench. 

"Hey, handsome," she smiled back. 

I gave her a quick kiss until I heard, "Archie get off my field!" I turned around and saw Archie running up to me. "You're better than me, T. They need you out there" He smiled at me. I smiled at him and gave him a bro hug. 

I turned towards Cheryl, "Meet me after the game, red," I winked at her and ran off onto the field. I ran all my plays perfectly.  Never missed a target, always ran into the end zone when needed. And Jordan was an amazing wide receiver as always.

"Great job, guys! Whoever made it on the team will be posted in the men's locker room tomorrow morning at 9:00am. See you then, boys," He said and walked away.

 Jordan ran up to me, "Yo bro we were amazing!" He said, excitedly. 

"Yes we were Jordan," I laughed, we walked back to my car and we saw Veronica, Betty, and my favorite red head. I smiled, walked up to Cheryl, and kissed her passionately. 

Once we pulled away from each other she asked, "What was that for?"

"Can I not kiss my girlfriend?" I laughed.

"Oh you definitely can," She laughed, and kissed me again. 

"Okay, break it up love birds, I'm having an inner circle only party tonight and you're coming," Veronica told us. 

"Yes ma'am," I saluted. She rolled her eyes and walked away.

"So, I'll see you tonight?" I asked Cheryl.

"Definitely," She smiled and kissed me once more before walking away. I smiled, and got into my car with Jordan. I pulled out of the school parking lot and drove us home.
