《Football Girl》Chapter 16

MAX'S POV:
"Guess what, guess what, guess what?!" Maggie shouts as she bursts into my room. I raise my eyebrows and feel myself grinning.
"Alright, i'll play along... What?"
"So, you know how volleyball just started right?" She says and when i nod she continues, "well, i normally wouldn't do something like this, but i wanted you to have a girlfriend that you could be proud of, so i tried out for the team and i made it... I MADE IT!"
I grin and hop off the bed. I pick her up and swing her around in a circle. Volleyball starts a little later than football does, but don't ask me why because i have no freaking idea.
"That's awesome, but you didn't have to try out just because you wanted me to be proud of you. I am proud of you just for being you. But i am super gald that those stuck up chicks and their coach agreed to have you play," I say and she smiles at me.
"Me freaking too," she squeels and we both look at each other in shock. She never ever squeelss... Well, i guess that's a good thing.
"Have you told Aya yet?" I ask her and she shakes her head.
"I was going to tell her yesterday after your guys practice because tryouts were at noon yesterday, but i couldn't find her," she says and i shrug.
"I don'tt know where she is," I reply and she scowls at me.
"Of course not, jeez have you even checked your phone to see if she has called you?" She asks and i think back. But i must take too long because Maggie slaps my arm with a sigh.
"Men..." She mutters and picks up my phone to check. "Oh here it is, she left you a message, you might want to check it because it might be important if she left a message".
I grab the phone and listne to the message.
"Holy mother of pearl,"I practically shout.
"What?!" Maggie asks in shock when i don't explain.
"Caleb drug her out to the forest behind thee school yesterday after practice and when they started yelling at each other he left.... He left her out there in the rain apparently and she was wondering if i would come and pick her up... Well i hope she found someone else because this might be a problem if not," I explain and Maggie shakes her head.
"You can be so stupid sometimes," Maggie says jokingly and i girn.
"I can't help it, but hey why aren't you worried?"I ask her with raised eyebrows and she rolls her eyes.
"Because Bryson left to go and pick someone up yesterday after he got home, but he didn't have time to tell me who and i am betting it was Aya," she explains and i sigh in relief.
"Well that's good," I reply and she shoves me with a laugh.
"Loser..."
"Beautiful..." I reply and wrap my arms around her wiast.
"Idiot..."
"Amazing..."
"Psycho..."
"Gorgeous..."
"You can always make me feel amazing even when i know i'm not,"she whispers and lays her head on my chest. I fall back on the bed with her in my arms and i smile.
"You know i might be feeling the L word," I say and she looks at me with an amused look.
"The L word? What is that?"She asks and i grin.
"Guess you'll just ahve to wait and see,"I reply and kiss her....

MAGGIE'S POV:
I smile to myself as i walk into my house. I wonder if Max's L word it love... I wonder...
"What are you smiling about?" Bryson asks as he walks out of his room.
"Oh nothing,"I reply and my smile widens.
"Obviously it is something,"he replies and i shake my head. "It's Max isn't it?"
"Noooooooooooooooooooo," I lie and Bryson shakes his head.
"I will never know what you see in him. You are way too good for him," he says and i look at him in shock. Ever since he stood up for me, we have been on ok terms. It gets kind of awkward sometimes, but he has yet to compliment me or ask about mine and Max's relationship.... Until now..
"No, more like he is too good for me," I say quietly and Bryson shakes his head quickly.
"Ha, not even close, but i guess of he makes you happy then what the heck,"Bryson says and walks into his room again. I blink in surpirse and grin.
Well, this has to be a good thing.. Right?
I walk into my room and pick up my cell and call Aya.
"Hello?" She answers.
"Ah, so you are alive. Max and I were worried," I say and she laughs.
"I doubt that you two were probably too busy sucking face to notice i was lost in the woods," she says jokingly and i grin.
"No actually, i made him check his phone and when he heard you message he got all freaked out, but i figured Bryson came and picke dyou up," I explain.
"Yeah, it was nice and surprising that he actually came," she says and i nod even though she can't seee me.
"Yeah, but he really has turned around," I say.
"Yeah, it seems that way," she says....
AYANNA'S POV:
When i get off the phone with Maggie my labtop starts making BINGS.
I look at it and see that 'Quarterback' wants to talk.
'hey'
'hi... so have you forgiven me yet for last time we talked?' i ask.
'yeah, it wasn't a big deal,' he types back.
'good,'i reply.
'admit it, you missed our little talks,' he types and i grin.
'nope, not a chance,'
'so, how is mr. dickhead'?' he asks and i furrow my brow in confusion.
'who is that?''
'bryson... remember you were complaining about him?'
Oh yeah, i was doing that a lot before Bryson changed.
'he has changed...'
'has he?'
'yeah, or at least i hope so. it seems like it,' i reply.
'well, i hope so for your sake,' he says and i smile. Who the heck is this guy?
'who are you?' i ask.
'you wouldn't believe me if i told you..' he replies.
'you are.. you are... dorky,' i say.
'wow, you are so good at those insults,'he replies and i grin.
'What are you doing?' he asks when i don't reply for a couple minutes.
'Nothing, just thinking,'i reply.
'About what or is it a who?' he types back.
'No!'I lie because i was and still am thinking aobut him. But i can't help it! I am always thinking about Bryson... That's pathetic isn't it? No, don't answer that question, i know it is...
"Liar! Who is it?'he asks and i grin.
'None of your business,'
'Please!!!'
'No!!!'
'Why not?'
'I'd tell you, but then i'd have to kill you,'i type back.

'Ugh! That saaying is so over used,'he replies.
'Whatever! You are just jealous that you didn't come up with it,'
'Niether did you!'
'Says you! Maybe i did and you just didn't knwo about it,'i reply.
'Whatever you say. Whatever helps you sleep at night,'his reply comes seconds later.
'Rude!'i say and spit my tongue out at the computer screen even though i know he can't see my childish move.
'Baby! Lol, but i gtg, talk to you alter,'he replies. I grin as i get off my computer.
Wonder why his name is Quarterback if he isn't even on the football team... Unless it's....
No! It couldn't be.. could it? But then why would he say bad things about himself...
Naw, it's not Bryson...
Right?!
BRYSON'S POV:
"Dude, what has got you so out of it today?" Jake asks as he beats me at Call of Duty.. Which let me tell you, never happens.
"I don't know,"I mutter.
"Is it a girl? Ha, what am i saying... You will never and have never been hooked on a girl,"he says and laughs to himself.
"Naw, it's not a girl... I don't know, just out of it," I reply.
"guess you're just going crazy," he says and i girn.
"Yeah, that must be it,"
"I knew it! but hey, if you ever need a girl to just you know... 'Hang'around with, i know some," he says and i roll my eyes.
"Of course you do,"
"What's that supposed to mean?" He asks and i grin.
"Oh you know exactly what it means, so don't act all innocent,"
"Haha, yeah, i don't even know why i try,"he says and i start laughing.
Loser...
"Oh hey, Jones texted me," he says and i jerk around and look at him.
"What?!"
"yeah, she was wondering if i would consider going out with her,"
"you're going to say no, right?" I ask and he starts grinning.
"Gotcha! She never texted me! She doesn't even have my number. I knew you liked her! I knew it,"
"Dick!"I snap and he starts dancing around me like an idiot sining in a high pitched voice i knew it, i knew it.
"I knnnnnnnneeeeeeeeeeeeewwwwwwwwww it," he finishes and plops back down on the bed.
"I can't believe you did that... How did you know that i liked her?"I ask him skeptically.
"That's for me to know and for you to never find out,"
"You know, sometimes i really feel like punching you in the face," I say with a grin.
"Yeah, i know. That's why i'm glad i am faster than you," he says and holds back a laugh.
"you wish,"
"No! It's the truth and everybody knows it,"
"Naw,"
"By the way, Maggie is looking fiinnneee," Jake says and i glare at him.
"Don't even think about it," I warn and he raises his eyebrows.
"Chill, bro, i was just pointing out a fact plus, Max would litterally kill me if i even looked at her in that way," Jake says witha grin.
"Ha, yeah he would," I reply.
"so, you going to the party tonight?" He asks and i shake my head.
"Nope, and neither are oyu," I reply and he raises his eyebrows.
"And why not?"
"Do you not remember what Coach did to us just a few days ago for going to a party and drinking, there is no way i am letting you screw this up again," I explain.
"Oh please, like i was the only one who was there,"
"No, but it won't be us who get caught at the party tonight because you just know that those idiots are going to get caught,"
"Fine, fine, fine," he mutters and i grin.
"Good boy,"
"Bite me,"
"No thanks,"
"I didn't mean it litterally, idiot,"
After a while Jake gets a text and slowly starts grinning.
"ARe you sure you don't want us to go to the party?" He asks and i sigh.
"Why?"'
"I just heard that Max is taking Aya there," he says with a wicked grin.
Oh for the love of pete! What is it with my team mates?! Did they not learn their lesson the first time?
"Please tell me you are just joking..." I say and he shakes his head.
"Fine, i guess we have to go and get them," I mutter and stand up.
"Yes!"
"But, we are not staying there long, jsut long enough for us to get them and leave,"I explain and Jake scowls at me.
"Fine..."
We hop into my car and head to the cheerleader's house who is hosting the party, Stacey, i think her name is or at least it's something like that.
"Hey, hey, ehy, Bry! Glad you could make it!" Noah says and i grab him by the ear.
"Jeez, i have to freaking babysit all of you!"I snap and shove him at Jake. Jake grabs him and deposists him into the car.
I walk into the house and everybody is drunk already! I look around and finally see Aya sitting with a bunch of other people playing spin the bottle. REally?
"Jones! Get over here," I say and she grins at me, obviously drunk.
"Noooo, come over here, Bryson," she slurs and i groan.
"Come on, it's time to leave," I say and ggrab her arm.
"nooo! please, it's my turn," she whines and i sigh.
"Fine, but hurry up,"
She spins the bottle and as it rotates around she looks up at me with sparkling eyes and smiles sweetly.
"Do you want to play? You could sit next to me," she suggests.
"No, it's time to leave"I say, but everybody is looking at me.
I look down and notice that the bottle is pointing at me.
"I'm not playing," I reply and Aya looks sad when i say this.
"Kiss her, kiss her, kiss her," the people chant and i groan. Fine!
I lean down and as her eyes widen, i press my lips to hers. She sighs and wraps her arms around me, but i use them as leverage and pick her up and take her outside.
"But, Bryson! I don't wnat to leave," she whines and i shrug.
"I thought you didn't drink,"I reply and she shrugs.
"I felt like i deserved it," she mumbles and her head lolls back on my shoulder. Jake raises his eyebrows when i plop her in the back seat of my car and we head out.
"Drunk already?" He asks me and i shrug.
"Looks like it,"
I drop off Jake at his house and then Noah and by that time Aya has climbed into the front seat and is bouncing around and singing at the top of her lungs along with the music.
"Aya, sit donw,"
"But,"
"Please,"
"Fine....Can i stay at your house? Pretty please, i won't ruin anything..."she says and shake my head.
That is just asking for trouble if i let her stay.
"But please, i don't want to go home," she whines and makes a pouty look.
After a few minutes i give in and sigh.
"fine, but you are sleeping in Maggie's room," I say and she grins.
" Yay! THank you,"
We pull up to my house and i soon realize that i will have to carry her up the stairs and into Maggie's room. So, that's exactly what i do..
Maggie looks surprised when i dump her best friend on her bed.
"Maggie! I love you, you are a great friend," Aya slurs and hugs her. Maggie hugs her back and stares at me in question.
"I just got her back from a party that your boyfriend took her to,"I say and Maggie rolls her eyes.
"Figures,"
I go back to my room and grin when i hear Aya start singing agian. Jeez, she really should not get drunk too often. I yank off my shirt and pull on some sweatpants before climbing into my bed. I am just getting situated when my door opens and Aya walks into my room.
"What are you doing in here?"I ask her and she sighs dramatically.
"Maggie snores,"she mutters and her eyes plead with me.
"Ok, fine, hop in,"I say even though i know she didn't even have to plead with me very much becasue i want her here too.
She grins and bounces into the bed with me. She curls up against my side and yawns sleepily. A few minutes later i am almost asleep when she says my name.
"Yeah?"I mumble.
"I think i love you," she says.
"Waht?!"I ask and look over at her, but of course, she is already asleep.
