Chapter 3

*The bell would ring*

'Oh, frick fracks.' Tom would say.

"What..?" I'd reply.

'That was the bell wasn't it?'

"The first one.." I'd say. "We have at least five minutes to get to class."

'Oh, I'm dumb.'

"Naw, just not the brightest fish in the sea."

He frowns, as everyone laughs.

I would get up, and grab my stuff. I'd wave at them and head to my first class: Geometry. As I got to my class I'd walk right into the back of the room, sitting in the back row, next to some girl reading a book that must be interesting as she doesn't look up or she just doesn't care. I'd take out my notebook and a pencil, starting to draw to waste time.

After 45 minutes the bell rings, for the next class. I get up and head off to my next class: Biology. When I get there I find Alessia sitting down at a desk, with an open spot beside her and decide to walk over to her.

I'd walk up behind her, very quietly. "Boo!"

She'd jump. 'Ahh!'

I'd laugh a bit, as she punches my arm lightly.

'I'll get you back for that.' She'd smirk.

"Sure you will." I'd chuckle. "Uh, is anyone sitting here?" I'd point to the empty spot next to her.

'Nope, it's all yours if you'd like it.'

I smile, sitting down next to her. As the class begins I take out my notebook and my pencil, beginning to jot down some notes.

The next few classes would fly by, coming up to lunch. I get up and grab all of my stuff. I would head to the activities office before heading to the cafeteria and joining my friends for lunch. When I get there, I walk up to a woman behind the counter. She'd look like she was really into something, not noticing me. I'd clear my throat, quietly.

She jumps a little, after hearing me. 'My apologies, what can I help you with?'

"I'd like to join the football team."

She'd nod, grabbing a few sheets of paper and handing them to me. 'Fill these papers out and have them in by Friday.'

I take them, and head to lunch. When I get there I find Alessia, Jerry, Tom, Joey, Cassie, Taylor and Jenna. I walk over and sit down on the end next to Alessia and across from Tom. I set the papers down, along with my stuff and start filling out the papers.

'Ooo, whatcha got there?' Alessia would ask.

"These are papers I need to fill out in order to join the football team, and I need them in by Friday." I reply

'Mk.'

"Then next week I can tryout for the team, then if I make it the week after practices start."

'Well, I think you'll be fine.' She smiles at me.

"How come?"

'Because, they'll see how great of a Quarterback you can be when given the right opportunities and the right people around you to keep you moving forward.' She smiles, again.

I smile back at her.

'They'll also see what a great person you are on and off of that football field. You're amazing, kind, gentle, loyal.'

"And dirty minded." I'd add.

She chuckles. 'And dirty minded, yes.'

I continue filling out the papers. When I finish most of them I flip to the back answering four questions.
