Standing at the edge of the court I anxiously chewed on the side of my cheek as I waited for the game to start, it still being another fifteen minutes until kick off.

Tapping my foot against the hard wooded floor I wandered my eyes around the stand of people behind me, this side of the bleachers being filled supporters for our team.

As I continued to aimlessly roam my eyes around the stand my eyes found two brunettes as they sat halfway up the bleachers, chatting away to each other.

Smiling to myself I couldn't help but admire Elle as she sat there looking so effortlessly beautiful, her precious laughter, which was music to my ears,  leaving her lips every now and again.

We were yet to have had a chance to speak to each other yet. I didn't see her arrive, probably because I was busy warming up. I was just glad that she had come.

Finally breaking her eyes away from Heidi, Elle eventually looked forward and I swear that I could immediately see her face light up as she latched onto me.

Watching as a smile began to curl it's way onto her lips I grinned widely back at her as I held my have up before sending her a small wave.

Softly laughing to herself I could tell that I made her blush as she lightly waved back to me, resulting in a short chuckle leaving my lips.

As our eyes continued to remain infatuated with one another's some guy then walked onto the same bench as Elle before taking a seat beside her.

Not being able to hear or make out what the guy was saying he then passed Elle and Heidi a drink each, Elle's eyes now having broken away from mine.

As my lips sunk into frown I pulled my eyebrows together as I watched the guy grin wildly down at Elle, his hand going to her arm, as she laughed in response to whatever he had said.

Feeling my jaw clench itself together I  lightly shook my head before turning away from the stand, a low sigh leaving my lips.

Why did this bother me? He's just some guy- some guy who Elle obviously enjoyed being around.

"Who's that dweeb?" Liam asked, coming to the side of me, as he glanced pass me and at whoever the guy was that was sat with Elle.

"I have no idea" I mumbled before plunging down onto the bench, where any subs for our team would be sitting during the game.

"I thought you kissed Elle yesterday?" Liam frowns in confusion before sitting down next to me.

"I did" I shrugged, leaning forward as I rested my chin on my hands.

"Then why's she here with some other nerd?" Liam scoffed as he kept glancing back to look at the pair of them, while I kept my eyes forward on the court.

"I don't know Liam" I sighed, rolling my eyes at all the questions.

"Ten minutes until kick off!" The tannoy then sounded throughout the room.

Letting out another sigh I then put my hands on my knees before pushing myself up from the bench, Liam joining me as I did.

"Let's round the team up" Liam suggested as I nodded in agreement before turning around to face the rest of my team who were still sat on the bench and shouting to get their attention.

"Guys, rally up!"

The first half of the game had just ended and we were currently winning by two points. With any luck, considering how well we've been playing so far, we'll win.
