Say you won't let go [BOOK 1]

The Kiss

"If you want a place on the team, come to the field, I don't have anyone else out here for the next hour."

"Oh yes, sure I'll be there."

"Great I'll be waiting."

—

I quickly walked to my room and grabbed my soccer clothes out of my bag and started changing. Adora walked in and closed the door.

"So who was it?" She asked.

"It was my soccer coach, Netossa." I said as I started undressing.

"Nice what did she say, cause you seem excited." She smiled.

"She wants me to go down to the field to show her how I play to see if I could join the team." I slipped on my jersey and shorts.

"Oh that's great! I know you'll get on the team!" She smiled.

"You think?" I put on the cleats.

"Of course!" She smiled.

I got up and grabbed my bag. I walked over to the door and kissed Adora.

"Thanks, I love you." I walked past her and walked out of the dorm.

"I love you more!" I heard her yell as I closed the dorm door.

I smiled and walked across the hall to the stairs and started running down to the field.

I ran out onto the field to coach Netossa. She was sitting on the bleachers at the side of the field. As I reached the bleachers, I set my bag down on the grass.

"Hi coach!" I sat next to her.

"Hey Catra, are you ready?" She stood up.

"Yeah." I said confidently.

"Perfect get on the field, I have a few girls in the team coming to practice with you." She said and wrote something on her clipboard.

"Ok, great." I looked at the door leading to the lockers and waited for the other girls that were coming to practice with me.

After a few seconds I saw the doors open and heard a bunch of laughing as a bunch of random girls came out onto the field.

I recognized one of the girls. Lonnie..

"Catra, meets your teammates, well some of them." Coach introduced me to the girls.

"Lonnie? W-Why is Lonnie here?" I looked at Coach.

"Oh yeah she transferred here after the last football game and decided to try soccer, now she's the team captain because she had preformed the best during some of the games." Coach put her hand on Lonnie's shoulder.

"Nice to meet you Catra, actually I think I saw you a while ago when you came out onto the field looking for Coach." She smiled, I could see through her, she knew that I knew everything about her.

"Whatever." I looked away.

"Okay so Catra you'll play striker, got it." Coach Netossa gestured for us to get on the field.
