New Kind of Game (Colin Kaepernick)

Chapter 25

“Thanks you have a really pretty face.” I blushed and turned around why did I have to make things awkward

“Thank you.” I say crossing my arms

“You must get that everyday.”

“Actually not really in that way but yeah I feel awkward in those situations.”

“When people compliment you?”

“Yes, i know it’s weird I know but I uh, don't get me wrong its nice but weird at the same time you know?” he snicker and shakes his head

“You know girls would kill for compliments.”

“Can we change subject?” I ask sitting on the edge of a bench not far away he walks and sits on the opposite side

“Ok.”

“Okay.” I say and play with a strand of my hair “So do you like football?” I ask awkwardly

“Yes.”

“What team?”

“Manchester.”

“City or United?” I ask

“City.” I pretend to throw up “What?” He asks

“Nothing just that you chose poorly.”

“Who do you like?”

“I can’t make up  mind from Chelsea or Real Madrid you see Real Madrid you got Ronaldo who is perfect but then we have Oscar in Chelsea so I can’t make up my mind.” He laughs

“You chose by looks?”

“Most of the time but the ones I like are actually good so the teams are good so I don’t come off as a stupid girl who doesn’t know shit, You get me?” I ask turning to look at him

“You’re right but you don’t come off as a stupid girl it’s normal you would go for that first.”

“Is it?”

“Yeah like on the girls league I’m a US type of person have you seen the team.” He says I laugh and nod “They are beautiful and are really good so we chose our sports the same way.”

“We do.”

“Yup.” I say and rub my arms, I swear this beach side weather sucks !!

“Oh you’re cold huh.” He says as he pulls his jacket off and put it over my shoulders

“Thanks.” I put my arms in laugh at how big it is

“What?” he asks I shake my head and raise my arms “Ohh a little big huh?”

“Yeah just a bit.” He took out his phone and started taking pictures I giggled. New people I’m not judging I still have the ones I took when I first moved here. They were with my mom and dad. I kinda miss talking to them maybe I should call or something or at least Everly.I can’t believe what my relationship with her is now we used to be so close and she probably hates me now, Adam, he’s probably the only one that still may want to talk to me well at least right now.

“Deep in thought?” I hear and look up

“Oh yeah ha I was just thinking about something.”

“I can tell, so do you wanna head home its like almost 3 am.” Shit I have to feed Loki

“Yes.” I say and get up we walk and he gets close to me he’s probably cold “Are you cold?” He shakes his head “You sure?”

“Yeah this is fine it’s colder in England.” He has a point, we get to the car and he opens the door for me, then climbs into his seat .
