Exchange For a Year

Chapter 8

A/N: This update is out later than I wanted because online school takes up most of my week so sorry my lovely reader for the wait

Aaron's POV

Wait, they were saying sorry. Yes I know I was going to wait by my locker but I wanted to be there if anything else went wrong, she's a nice girl and doesn't deserve to be hurt by anyone. I stay back and listen in on their conversation.

"We were just looking out for you, he doesn't have a good reputation,"

"Por favor no lo juzgues,"

"Umm, I don't know,"

"Sólo tratar de"

"I guess you guys could sit with us for a little bit and we'll see for ourselves"

"Thank you"

I don't know if that's a good idea but I suppose if Aph wants me to do it I guess I could. It's ultimately her choice and I hope she can be better friends with them, rather than spending her whole year holed up in the music room with a loner like me. I get dragged from where I was leaning against a wall and over to the table they were sitting at.

"This is Aaron,"

"Well uh hi, I'm Katelyn,"

I know pretty much who all these people are, Garroth and Laurence the popular boys, Dante the Casanova, Katelyn is captain of the volleyball team, Travis is her boyfriend, Lucinda is proclaimed the best witch in the school, Teony is the smartest girl her age and major LBGT supporter, Kawaii~Chan as the call her is a crazy hyper mei-fwa and Nicole I don't really know.

"Take a seat I guess,"

I'm not blind, just because I have one friend doesn't mean I don't pay attention to the school life around me.

"Uh thanks,"

Aph is probably the only one who looks excited about this.... there are so many ways it could go wrong.

"So Aaron what do you like doing in your spare time?"

"Well uh mostly practising guitar and um a bit of football,"

Guess Katelyn and I aren't going to be buddies after this, but Laurence seemed somewhat intrigued at the mention of football.

A/N: Football = Soccer but I prefer to say football even if soccer is the American (which I'm not) way of saying it

"How well can you play?"

"Uh fine I suppose, why?"

"Alright play me at lunch next Tuesday and if you're good you're on the team,"

"Me?"

"Look dude we're one player short and I desperately need someone for the game season,"

I don't really thing I want to be on the football team but I get really encouraging looks from Aphmau who will probably tell me to go for it and try because I could make more friends that way. Hmm my dad always said he wanted me to get into a proper sport like Melissa and maybe just maybe now's my chance.
