Forbidden Love- USWNT

Welcome to Pinewood

"Even though we are a public school, we have a lot of money saved in our bank from mostly donations. This school is known for its education and athletics," stated Kelley.

I nodded, "so do you guys want a donut?" Carli asked.

I turned to Kelley who looked at me, and just shrugged her shoulders, "why the hell not?" I said. The three of us headed to the lounge and found three big bakery boxes of donutes, and already there were others hounding the area. When we were there, I met Julie who would be assisting me in coaching the team. Her specialty was defense.

When we grabbed our donuts, we walked back to Kelley's place because the room was already filled up. We chatted how the soccer world was doing, how the school's athletic goal was to win the finals, as they lost last year to penalties against Columbus Academy High School, our biggest rivals.

Carli asked at one point as to how I found this place, and told her I moved back from Sweden and Kelley was able to find something that would still have me do what I love and left it at that. I didn't want her to know why I was back in the states because one, it was too soon to talk about anything, two, I had just met Carli, and three, I wanted to go the whole day without thinking about it. She didn't press on after that, so we went on with a story from her summer. The only person who knew the whole story was Kelley and only her.

"Christen, you know your scheduel yet?" asked Kelley, who finished up with her donut.

"I think so, I'm supposed to have a meeting after noon, and then practice after school with the girls."

"And did you post who is on the Varsity Team?"

"Yes, I posted that a week ago," I moved back here two months ago, and I had already seen all the girls who were trying out. I had others who would help me on who was in Varsity last year, and who seemed have excelled in their skills. I would of course have the final say, but I trusted the others on their inputs and ideas.

"Alright good, your first day is pretty easy, but soon you'll be having to go through papers for your players and other crap I don't miss doing last year," Kelley smiled.

"Sounds like fun," I said sarcastically.

I decided that I needed to get a better feel for the campus, so I first walked around the hallways, and by this point they were empty. It wasn't a maze, but there were a couple times I had to double check as to where I was. I then walked back to the athletic part of the school, and headed outside. I saw the football field a little ways, baseball fields, tennis courts, and then the most beautiful field, soccer.

I walked to the fence that was surrounding the field, which was grass and I exhaled. I would have hated to have turf. There was a track that went around the field, and bleachers on either sides. There were sports lights, and a room up top where commentators could talk over the speakers. The goals have already been set and netted, but the only thing missing were the lines.

I was about to walk back, when I heard a door to a shed open and close. I turned around and saw a person with a soccer ball and going out to the field. I gave a closer look, and saw it was a girl and she started to juggle. She started off with one touching it on either foot, then started to do around the worlds and a few other tricks that were quite impressing.

She had dirty brown hair, but couldn't see her face cause her back was towards me. I didn't want her to turn around and see me watching and thinking I was a creepy person, so I turned around and speed walked back to the building.

I went to my office, and looked at the roster for my team. I scrolled through and read some of their names. Since I was a teacher, I was able to have access to their overall grades and their past grades, but that was all.
