It was a crisp fall day, and my friend jack and I were heading to the Polkley Middle Scool football game. The sun was near dawn, and a slight breeze made me shiver. Jack and I sat down on the cold metal bleachers and watched the football players score touchdowns.

"Don't you wish you were a football player? I totally should of tried out."

Jack stated

"Yeah, I guess."

I stated to zone out and focus on a thread coming from the hem of my shirt, when someone caught my eye. It was Brennah, and she was talking to her usual group of friends, herblue eyes shining.

The cold was also getting to her, for her small nose was turning pink.

I sighed. She did look adorable with her nose all red like that. If only I hadn't chickened out of my arrangement with Brennah maybe she would notice me. I looked out at the football feild and did not envy them. Who wanted to run around in th cold night in tights?

Not me. Although, it was weird for a guy to be at a football game and not on the grass. I was twiddling with my fingers when I felt a presence coming up to me. It was Brennah out of all people. I watched as he friends got in to thei parents cars and drove off.

"um hi," I squeaked

" hi. I saw you sitting here alone and I...." Immediately my head whipped around to where Jack was supposed to be. I spotted him at the snack bar buying some hot cocoa.

Ugh. I have to remind myself to get back at him for that.
