"So Bree, you're coming to the game tonight, right?" McKenna asks as we leave the school premises after the last bell.

"Yeah definitely, wouldn't miss it."

It's Friday afternoon and schools finally over for the week. Today's really dragged so I'm looking forward to watching the game tonight and hanging out with some friends. James, McKenna's boyfriend and his friend Daniel play for a football team and they have a match tonight, they haven't shut up all day about how they're going to win tonight.

"Awesome, well I'm going to go home and get ready, we'll pick you up around 6," McKenna explains as she runs off and jumps into James' car leaving me to walk the short distance home.

I get home just after 4pm leaving me just a couple hours to get ready before McKenna and the boys pick me up for the match. I'm feeling loads better today compared to the beginning of the week, starting my period like that really scared me, I'm just thankful that the pains died down along with the bleeding.

I tie my hair back in a loose bun and strip from my clothes before jumping in the shower to have a quick wash. Once feeling fresh and clean I exit the bathroom wrapped in a towel making my way back to my room. I pull on some clean clothes, simple denim jeans, a dark green tank top and a black cardigan to wear over the top as it can get quiet chilly sitting in the stands.

I make my way downstairs and into the kitchen going straight to the fridge. I never knew being 'on' would make me so hungry, all I've wanted to do for the past few days is eat; chocolate, crisps, ice-cream, the weirdest craving I've been having is meat, burgers, ham, sausages, anything I can get my hands on. I find a packet of ham in the fridge and pull it out taking it to the living room with me to watch some TV while I wait for 6'o clock to roll around.

A loud horn outside grabs my attention from the TV show I'm watching, I look down at my phone to see its 5:55pm, must be McKenna and the boys. I switch the TV off and slip my phone into my pocket before pulling on my shoes and heading out the front door. I slide into the backseat next to Daniel as James is driving and McKenna obviously called shotgun.

"Let's go win this game!" James announces as he pulls back out onto the road and in the direction of where the game is being held.

I've not been to many of the matches before but the ones I have been to I have thoroughly enjoyed. It's fun to watch groups of lads run around in little shorts getting all sweaty as they chase a ball and attempt to score, very entertaining.

"I'm so excited to see you play tonight baby," McKenna says to James as they exchange loving glances with each other.

"Ergh god really, can you not wait until you're alone for that shit," Daniel says cringing in the backseat next to me, I must admit they can be really cringe worthy sometimes.

"You're just jealous," McKenna snaps her head around facing me and Daniel in the back seats as James pulls into the parking lot.

"Erm no," Daniel replies with a smirk. "I've got me a little cutie right here."

Daniel reaches over taking me by surprise, as he wraps an arm around my shoulder. Was he just referring to me?

"Oh, I don't think so," I laugh taking his arm from around my shoulder and climbing out the car, McKenna is quick to join in with my laughing as she too gets out and links my arm.

"Don't be like that baby," Daniel continues to pursue me but I just keep walking away only to hear James say,

"Dude that's deep!"

McKenna and I giggle all the way to the stands where only a few people are seated at the moment. We are here earlier then most spectators, only because we came with the boys who are playing, they still need to warm up before the match which officially starts at 7. When we reach the pitch I take a seat on a random fence, while McKenna stands next to me as we wait for the boys to catch up with us.
