"Tobs, we gotta run!" I shout across the pitch to Tobin.
We've just won another cup match but it's the same day as our qualifying football game to see if we can be in the running for worlds. Fortunately for us, they were both home games meaning we just need to quickly get changed and head to the other field.
I start stripping off as soon as get through the doors of the locker room, trading one uniform for others. The girls follow in behind and we get a few wolf whistles making me smirk and wink at Kelley who starts blushing like usual.
I give her a quick kiss and grab my helmet, running out with Tobin to the football field hoping the game hasn't started yet.
"has it started?" I ask Tobin as we run through the school taking the short cut route
"I don't think so, I can't hear the band yet," She says just as we push through the doors that lead to the field
"about time!" Zach says smirking at us both as we place our helmets on
"you try and play a soccer match and then run straight to a football game" I reply hitting him on the head.
We quickly gather around coach who gives us the instructions for tonight's game, basically saying to play fast and hard.
"Before we go, how did it go ladies?" He asks Tobin and I causing all heads to look our way
"oh you know other easy 6-1 win, no biggie" Tobin says and I can hear the smirk in her voice
The boys all cheer loudly for us and coach smiles, patting our helmets before sending us off onto he field, ready to play for hopefully our spot at worlds.
We make a quick huddle before starting and I give the boys a few instructions
"we keep cool heads tonight boys, no lashing out and just stick to the game plan alright," I say sternly to my boys knowing it's going to get rowdy
"I already want to kick number 5 face in" Charlie grumbles starting off behind me
"if I say you can kick his face in then you can otherwise we're here to play football, not boxing" I tell them and put my hands in the middle
"team on 3" I shout
"1,2 team!" Gets yelled back and we spread out into position doing a basic run the first play to get a feel for the rest of the game.
I yell hut and quickly receive the ball, picking my head up so to look for the possible runs of Tobin or Zach but both of them are being heavily marked and I don't have a clear throw.
The other team are getting lose from our hold and I know any second now I'm about to be pummeled to the floor. I glance over at coach at see him throwing his arms towards the other end and I know he wants me to run it.
So I do just that, my legs are already tired from the soccer match we just played and I know for sure I'm not running at my max speed but I seem to be getting past their men.
I can feel someone on my trail and I know he's going to tackle me soon so I just run it out of play, not wanting to be thrown to the floor. However, the other guy seems to have other ideas in mind and even though I'm out of play he throws me to the floor, pushing my helmet into the mud as he gets off me
"stay off our field you dyke or you'll girlfriend will get it next" He spits out as his team celebrate his tackle
"Ref! Are you kidding me, I was out of play that's a foul!" I yell at the official who doesn't want any of it.
"you good Dan?" Tyler asks offering his hand to help me up
"I know I said to keep cool heads but I don't think I will last long" I tell him, brushing off the dirt from hands
