        COLT'S POV***

"Wow looks like someone isn't a morning person." I tell her. She's so cute in the mornings. The way she has her eyes barely open, and how it takes her a second to respond to people. It's really cute.

"Yeah, I hate the mornings to be honest why do mornings even have to exsist?" She says while laughing"

'Nat let's go." Coach Long tells her.

'Yeah Nat get working" I say with a wink.

"Okay, okay.I'm coming. Coach I already have my gear on what more do oyu want from me at 6:30 in the morning?' She rhetorically ask. 

"Hurry up, and in the cages." Coach Long tells her. She grumbles something with her hair being messed up by her catchers helmet. Her catchers gear is hot pink, and she is just adorable in it. She gets behind the fake home base, and Coach Long starts to throw some pretty slow pitches

"Is that all you've got Coach?" She asks, and I can just hear her smile.

"Colt get over here!" Hardee tells me. 

"Yeah Colt stop stalking Nat, and let me catch a couple." Josh says. Josh is really freaking annoying. Nat took her eye off of Coach Long for two seconds, and a neon green softball hits her in the face. Now she did have her helmet on, but it still kind of painful. I rush over to help her.

"Chill out Colt, I'm sure Josh has taken waaay worse, and I bet you didn't rush over to dave him" Josh Winks at her, and she laughs. Jealousy shoots through me. I know I shouldn't be jealous of someone that isn't even mine, but I can't help it. I want her to be mine.

"Colt, we have 30 minutes left in the so called practice. Now get some pitches in, so you can at least get something done' Hardee says to me even louder than before. I look over to the cages across the field to see Nat catching looking so focused, and determined.

" Yeah Colt." Josh says with a laugh. 

"I don't need an echo either Josh. Get back to work or I'll make y'all do sprints here soon." Hardee says with a warning tone. I look over to Nat to her laughing her butt off! She's out of her gear, and her hair which was once in a braid is now in this messy bun of the top of her head. She still looks so beautiful even covered in sweat. 

"You can change now Nat. I'm not sure how much time you need, but you really need to fix that bun of yours>" Coach Long says with a wink. She laughs, and goes into the girls locker room. I throw ten more pitches, and get dressed for school myself. 

***NAT'S POV***

I finally do something with my hair. Just a simple french braid down the middle. Playing softball my whole life I learned a couple of braids. I just throw on more sweatpants. These are a Dark blue with nean pink lettering that say "LADY STORM" going down the right leg. I love these they're my favorite. What I've noticed about this school is that school if you have team approved gear on you can wear them, and sice the travel team here is thunder (Ironically) Coach Long said I could wear them. i walk out of the locker rom to see Colt standing there waiting for me.

"Hey Nat! The homecoming game is tonight, and since we don't have a dance I was wondering of you wanted to go the game?" Colt asks me. Obviously nervous; I think it's cute.

"Sure I'll ask my parents. I'll text you if I can go." I say with a smile. He smiles and give me a hug.

"Well we better get to Chem. You know how Smith is.

"Haha yeah, let's go." I say. I'm actually looking forward to the game.

After a stressful day of school consisting of pop quizzes and mean teachers I'm glad to be a home.
