Chapter twenty-seven

We are already at the bleachers, seating waiting for the game to start. On my left side, George holding a red balloon, while on my right side it was Clark he is just silent, but there is a smile on his face. I don't feel uncomfortable with them—if you're asking. It's maybe because I'm already close to them not making me uneasy.

All the bleachers surrounding the soccer field are already filled with students in this school. Only the high school seniors came to watch the game with us, they are all wearing red to support our team. While the opponents are wearing yellow.

But I laugh when I could see students from this school is wearing red. I couldn't believe they are supporting our team instead of them. But they aren't seating with us. I heard a load hunk meaning the game is starting.

First, the MC introduces the players. Our opponent was first and then it was Liv's team. After the 5th announcement, it was Liv's turn. And my ears almost bleed hearing the crowds screaming when they heard Liv's name. Gosh! but when he finally came out, I couldn't help but cover my ears.

Even the girls from this school are screaming Liv's name.

"Your brother is famous." I heard Clark say, I nodded agreeing with what he said. He is, and it looks like he is enjoying it. I don't know how can he handle such pressures and attention. I envy how they handle the crowd of people adoring and loving them. I can't imagine myself in their positions, they are too high to reach. Even for me. They are out of reach.

While I'm in their shadow.

Xyro is cold and doesn't like the people around him. But he acts like it doesn't bother him like they aren't there. But we aren't the same...He doesn't like the crowd... and me I'm scared of it. Literally.

As I watch Liv, he looks into our side, his gaze narrowed everywhere. Like he was looking for someone. George hit me with his elbow lightly enough for me to get what it meant. I raise my hands with a red long skinny balloon–George gives me earlier. I wave my hand I even tried to stod so she can see me. I shouted his name and finally, he found me.

He smiles at me and waves his hands. I put my hands between my lips and shouted. "Good luck!" I don't know if he heard it or not but he laugh and raise a thumbs-up. I seated again and the game finally.

I don't know much about soccer but as the game started, Liv's team immediately leads the scoreboards. I just watch and cheered every time Liv and his team score. My brother was a pretty pro at the game and it amazes me. This is the first time I saw him in this kind of game. I only saw him in practice or playing with his friends, I never saw him competing at another school.

And for me, even if I'm only watching him my heart is racing! I'm nervous about him! I felt like I'm going to pass out any minute! Clark notice it and immediately calm me down, He knew about the asthma thingy I have. We did talk a lot.

And for the last minute, Liv has the ball and there are only 5 seconds left. He kicks the ball so hard even if he is on the other side– the ball flew on the other side and went inside the goal.

All of us cheered in the victory of our team. I didn't even notice that I was hugging Clark because of happiness. I immediately let go because it was beyond awkward, I look at George, and even he was in shock at what I did. He was trying to stop a smile, but I glared at him and he looked away.

Both team handshakes. Liv was the star player– if that is what is called. The winning team made the speech. They were pushing each other because they don't want to make the speech when they finally decide it was Liv. And as always the crowd roared.

"Uhm... I just wanna say thank you to everyone. Thank you all for the wonderful game and our opponents who did their best thank you very much. I would love you meet you all again in the field." The opponents smiled and cheered also. "Thank you for letting us play here, what a wonderful place you have. Thank you for my team and coach, I love you guys so much." He let out a manly laugh making the girl squeal. " And on behalf of my team, thank you all for the audience who watch this game, especially to our schoolmates and classmates who are here to cheer us. I'm very delighted by all of you." He waves his hand in our direction. and then our eyes meet he smiled ear to ear. "And for my inspiration for this game, Thank you very much sis for coming here for me and watching the game." He pointed in my direction making all people look at me. "Love you, lil sis!" My heart jumps and my knees shake when I notice people I don' know are starring at me.

I grab on Clark's red jacket for support and slightly hid my body. Jeez, Why do you have to do that? You can just thank me after!

After his speech, the ceremony ended. Some people went to the exit and some went to the stage to take pictures or autograph from the player. The three of us waited until Liv and his team approached us. I give him a hug and congratulate him. "Congrats! You were amazing!" He hugged me back and ruffled my hair. I let go of the hug and let his classmate and schoolmate congratulate him.

"You can wait here or you'll go ahead?" He asks. He also needs to change so he won't get sick. He is very sweaty.

"I'll go ahead," I said, he nodded and I walk away. I will wait for him in his car, I already familiarized myself.

I was walking peacefully when three tall guys block my way. I try to avoid them but they block me with his right arm. "Excuse me..."

"Not so fast." Based on his uniform, I know he is one of the players. "You are Liv Viglianco's sister right?" He ask, rise a brow and I saw how his friends from behind smiled smugly.

If my memory is right, he is the only one playing soccer between all of them, I never saw their face on the game. "Y-yes, do you need anything?"

He whistled and look at my head to toe. "I must say, the Viglianco really have some hot looks." He smirks and laughs maniacally with his friends. I could feel I'm in big trouble, I turn around about to leave– I'll go back to Liv instead. But he grabbed my wrist hardly. "No, you won't until you give ys your number."

"Please let me go..." I said firmly. I try to pull myself out of his touch but he just budges. Damn, I don't wanna give my number to these freaks. I look and I notice people avoiding our way as if they are afraid of these guys. And I was disgusted when he started to make his ugly face closer to me... Oh no!

he is trying to kiss me!! hell no!! I need to get but there is only one way to get out...

I turn to him and I full force kick him in between him his legs.
