"This isn't fair," Olivia muttered to herself as she was currently being forced to sit on the sidelines and watch the ongoing training session ahead of the game coming up.

The teenager yearned to be out there and joining in on the fun, being able to kick a ball freely around the pitch but unfortunately for her, she was being forced to do the worksheets that her school had been so kind to send over for her to do.

Of course the girl was reluctant to do it but since Leah had made it clear that if she didn't do it then she wouldn't be able to attend the match, she was left with no choice but to do it.

She wasn't going to miss the match, not if she could help it. Even if she did have to do the stupid school work that was set out for her.

"This is stupid and it doesn't even make no sense," The young blonde grumbled to herself, staring down at the worksheet with confusion.

"Oi kid! Pass us the ball?" Rachel waved as she called over to Olivia to get her attention as the ball was rolling off the sidelines towards her.

"What ball?" Olivia couldn't help but the certain mischevious glint in her eye as she reached out to pick up the ball of the floor. "Oh, you mean... This ball?" she smirked, looking towards the girls before she stood up and started to do some simple tricks, much to nobody's amusement probably.

"Give it up now kid," Keira chuckled as she watched the teen's antics.

"Ah, really? But what fun is that then?" Olivia asked, a cheeky smile appearing on her face as she looked at the older girl.

"Looks like the wonder kid's showing us up," Beth commented, laughing amusedly.

"Doesn't take much does it?" Jill remarked as she smirked at the blonde.

"Pass us the ball trouble," Georgia piped in.

"Why? I'm havin' fun with it though," The 14-year-old replied as she laughed and continued to do keepy uppys with the ball.

"That's enough Liv," Leah scolded, walking over to her sister and taking the ball out of the teen's hands before she tossed it back to the rest of the girls. "Stop causing trouble, you're interuppting the training session." she told her.

Olivia couldn't help but roll her eyes as she slumped back down onto the floor, "Come on, I'm only having a bit of a laugh now. I'm bored so what else do you expect me to do?" she asked.

"I expect you to be doing your school work like you're supposed to be," Leah responded as she crossed her arms and stood towering over her sister to make her have the advantage. "Unless since you're pratting around as much, I assume you've already done it all?" she wondered.

"No..." The teenager said as she exhaled a loud sigh.

"I thought as much," Leah stated, shaking her head. "Right, I'm going back to training and when I come back. I expect to see that you've at least done some more of it, alright?" she told her firmly before she began to head off back in the direction of the pitch.
