I've been stretching on the field for a little while when I see a girl my age with light brown hair that's held back in a pony tail walk toward me. Huh, I've never seen this girl before. As she gets closer I notice she is pretty and has a slim figure.

"Hi." she says as she stops in front if me.

"Hi." I answer back. I look down and notice she is wearing shin guards and cleats like me. "Are you here for tryouts?"

She smiles happily and says, "Yup. I just moved here from a town near by. We just got here yesterday afternoon so I hope the coach won't penalize me for missing a tryout..."

I shrug. "Um, she might, but only because she is a hard ass. If you are decent I wouldn't worry though, we need some good players. We lost over half our starters last year." I say to her. She smiles.

"Good, I think I will be able to make the team then. What position do you play?" she asks and sits down next to me to stretch her legs out.

"I'm center forward." I say with a smile. I love that position, it gives me so many choices to do so many things.

"Oh that's awesome." she says. "I play left wing because I'm a lefty. It just works out better for everyone that way." I laugh.

"You should be fine then, our left wing now is a sophomore. She's the only left wing we have besides the one that graduated last year. She's okay, but she isn't amazing." I say. She smiles and stands.

"Good. I hope that helps my chances considering I missed a day of tryouts." she says and offers me a hand. I gratefully grab it and she helps me stand up. I look behind her and see my coach coming out along with other soccer players.

"Come on, I will talk to coach with you. I'm sure she will give you a fair chance." I say with a laugh.

"Thanks so much!" she says happily. "I'm Tori by the way."

"Nice to meet you Tori, I'm Evelyn, but you can just call me Ev."

******

"Okay girls that's enough for today." Coach Shelly yells then blows her whistle. we all run into a huddle around coach and she pulls out a clip board. "Now I think I have a general idea on who I want starting and who's going to be cut from the team. I just need tomorrow to make my final decisions. Well rest up and I will see you tomorrow girls." She dismisses us and we disperse, I head over to my bag and I'm still panting.

"Good job out there Ev, you're definitely going to be starting center field." I hear Tori say from behind me. I turn around to see her panting just like me.

"Thanks, I hope so. You did really good out there too. You looked like you've played a lot before." I say with shock. It's true, she was absolutely amazing. She was running circles around our defense and scored so many times. I'm pretty impressed.

"Yeah, I played on a couple of club teams back in my other town." She says and grabs her water, chugging it. My mouth is so dry that I do the same thing.

When we are done drinking. I grab my bag and start to walk over to the football field. That's where Rosie will be. She wanted to see all the boys try out.

"Wait are you going to the football field?" Tori shouts. I turn around mid stride.

"Yeah!"

"Do you mind if I tag along? Some of the boys on the team have to drive me home so I have to wait for their tryouts to end." She grabs her bag and hurries up to walk next to me.

"Sure thing. I'm going to meet up with my friend Rosie who has to drive me home. But I kind of want to watch my friend Jason finish tryouts." I say. I'm sure he would want me to come watch him when my tryouts ended. He loves having an audience.

"Jason?" She says and looks at me with a smile. "Is this boy your boyfriend?" She wiggles her eyebrows and I laugh.

"No, no. We are just really close friends. He's in the grade above us." I say as we reach the bleachers. I look around for Rosie and I spot her in the front row watching the boys contently. "There's my friend Rosie, come on!" I lead her to the front row and plop down next to Rosie.

"Hey." She says without even looking at me. I roll my eyes.

"Rosie, this is Tori. She's new here and she's going to be playing on the soccer team with me." This catches Rosie's attention and she turns to look at Tori.

"Hi! It's always nice to meet new people. I'm Rosie." She shoves her hand out in front of Tori and Tori takes it and gently shakes it.

"It's nice to meet you Rosie. So you like football?" Tori asks.

"Eh. More like I enjoy the eye candy that comes with football."

I laugh, of course Tori had to asked that. Rosie doesn't like sports, but boys, now that's something she likes.

Rosie rolls her eyes at my laughing. "Shut up Ev. It's not like I'm locked onto one guy like you. I can oogle over whoever I want." I frown.

"Rosie I'm not locked onto one guy. I've been single all my life. I've never even had a boyfriend." I say.

"Yeah, okay. You keep telling yourself that. But it doesn't matter. What matters right now are the new guys on the field. They are hot. Well I mean their bodies are hot from a distance anyway." Rosie says. I look onto the field to see which ones shes talking about. I hear snickering from my left side. I turn and see Tori laughing to herself.

"What's so funny over there?" I ask curiously. Was it something I said? No it had to be something Rosie said.

"Those new guys came from my old school. Their names are Gavin and Seth. They are actually the ones taking me home after tryouts." She says. I see Rosie's eyes go wide with excitement.

"You're friends with the new boys? Are they hot in person too?" she asks loudly. I slap my face with my hand. Why is Rosie such an idiot, you don't ask those kinds of questions.

"Yeah, they are really cute. They were really popular in my old school because they have good looks and they are amazing athletes."

Just then a loud whistle cuts through the air. I see both Rosie and Tori flinch from the loudness of the whistle. All the boys on the field gather around the coach for a moment as he gives them a speech. As soon as he is done, they break and the boys head straight for the locker room.

"Okay, well I have to go to work." Rosie says and stands. "It was nice meeting you Tori."

I look at her shocked. "Um! Did you forget about me?"

"Oh yeah about that... Go home with Jason. See yah!" she shouts and jogs off of the bleachers. I huff. Leave it to Rosie.

"Want to go wait for the guys at the locker room then?" Tori asks me. I nod my head.

"I suppose so."

We walk off of the bleachers and make our way to the school. Our school is huge and beautiful. It's a private school so it is loaded with money. The locker rooms were just recently redone, I'm not sure what the guys locker room looks like, but the girls locker room is amazing.

When we reach the outside of the locker room I lean on a wall and Tori stands next to me.

"So what's there to do in this town anyway?" Tori says to me. I laugh.

"Not much. I mean we basically just have woods. The cool thing though, is there is a really nice waterfall about two miles from here. Sometimes my friends and I go there and jump off rocks into the water."

"That sounds like a lot of fun, maybe I could come with you guys someti-" Shes cut off by a deep voice that comes from behind her.

"What sounds like a lot of fun?" I look up and see two boys I've never seen before come out of the locker room. They are both well built and have nice muscles that are exposed through their tight shirts. One has dark brown hair and grey eyes while the other has light brown hair with brown eyes.

Tori smiles and turns around, "Oh hey Gavin and Seth. We were just talking about what there is to do in this town. Hopefully Ev here will be able to show us around." Both boys look at me and I feel my face turn slightly red.

I've never felt this self conscious before in my life... I wish I wasn't so gross and sweaty right now.

"Yeah, I wouldn't mind showing you guys aroun-" Just then I'm cut off by a storm of boys rushing out of the locker room. They plow their way through our little group and I get pushed into the wall. "ouch." I say as someone steps on my foot. I look up and see that someone's football bag is headed straight for my face. I close my eyes.

"Watch where you're going." I hear Jason's familiar voice say. I open my eyes to see that he caught the persons bag just before it nailed me in the face.

"Sorry about that." the kid says and hurries off.

"You okay?" I look up to see Jason looking at me concerned. I roll my eyes. Just because I don't have the strength of a werewolf doesn't mean I'm fragile. He doesn't have to protect me like I'm glass that's about to shatter.

"Yeah I'm fine." he smirks and throws his sweaty arm around me.

"I thought you would be. You're one tough cookie." He looks up and sees Tori and her two friends still staring at us. "Oh hey guys. Awesome job at tryouts today. I look forward to working with you on the team."

I see the brown eyed boy smile and look at Jason. "You too man. I look forward to kicking butt on offense with you."

I feel Jason start to tug me toward the door. I glance up real fast and see the grey eyed boy is giving me a dirty look. Something about his face tells me that he has a certain darkness to him... I ignore him and look at Tori.

"Well see you at tryouts tomorrow morning Tori. Bye!" I say and give her a small wave.

"See yah Ev." I turn and walk with Jason to his car.

"How did tryouts go?" I ask him as we approach his jeep. I hop into the passenger seat and wait for him to put his stuff away in the trunk.

When he gets that done he hops into the drivers seat. He takes his keys out of his pocket and starts his engine.

"Tryouts were good. It felt nice to get out there and exercise again." He puts the car in reverse and backs it up. "Oh yeah, and those new guys are absolutely amazing. Gavin is an amazing quarterback, I caught all the balls he threw to me, and Seth is awesome at running back. He's extremely fast. He's faster than all the guys on the team."

I look at him shocked. "You're kidding right? We have werewolves on the team. How can he be faster than them?" I ask astonished. Jason shrugs.

"I don't know Ev, but it's amazing I'm just glad they are on our team and not a rival's team."

"Whatever you say Jay. Just get us back to the pack house so I can shower." he laughs and turns the radio up.

"Sure thing princess."
