A Relationship by Chance
Tryouts
I woke up at 8 to get ready for tryouts. I didn’t sleep well. I was really nervous about these tryouts. What if I didn’t make the team? I got dressed in a soccer tournament t-shirt with black shorts. I put on my shin guards and my black soccer socks to show I was serious. I put my hair in a ponytail with my pink pre wrap. I then put my cleats, a soccer ball and a couple water bottles in my bag. For breakfast I had some fresh fruit I didn’t want to eat too much. I then checked my phone and had a text from Tyler.
Tyler: Hey just wanted to wish you good luck on your soccer tryout. Remember it’s just a practice. Text me when you're done.
I texted back:
Alex: Thanks Tyler. I will text you when I get back.
Then I turned off my phone and told Cherokee I was leaving. I was taking my car so I didn’t waste any energy. I got there and there were a couple girls stretching. I walked over towards to drop my stuff off and put on my cleats. But someone walked up to me and said hey Alex. I looked up it was Hayley we played club soccer together. I haven’t seen her since she moved to South Carolina. I got up and gave her a hug. I said hey Hayley how are you? We kind of lost contact when you moved she said yeah. Hayley already played one year. She was an amazing goalie. I asked her what tryouts were like since she was already here. She said it wasn’t too bad. That eased my nerves. There was a good amount of girls. The coaching staff came up to us and told us they would pick 15 girls to be on the team. We started with some warm-ups. We ran a couple laps around the field. Then we did some dynamic stretching. I hated doing dynamic stretching since I started doing it in 7th grade for modified basketball. I was always so tired and out of breath after doing dynamic stretching. But this time I wasn’t out of breath. Then we went to passing the ball with a partner. I have always been a good passer. Then we did some shooting drills. My shot was really on target. I was feeling pretty good about my tryout. At the end we scrimmaged they put me in my position left wing. I loved the girls trying out. We clicked pretty natural. I was excited to see who made the team I was hoping I would get the call. In the end we put are hands in and were free to leave. If we made the team we would get the call sometime this weekend. I was so tired. I got home and took a shower and changed into some comfy clothes. Then I plopped on the couch and texted Tyler.
Alex: Heyy I’m home from tryouts.
Tyler: How did it go?
Alex: It went pretty well. I am hoping I did well enough to make the team.
Tyler: The important part is you did the best you could. Do you want to get something eat?
Alex: You read my mind I’m starving. Can we get burgers?
Tyler. Lol yes we can get burgers. I’ll pick you up in 15 mins.
Alex: Yay!! Lol ok I’ll see you in 15 mins
I got up from the couch and changed into dark skinny jeans and a pink and grey striped shirt. I put my hoop earrings in and put my chestnut bear paw boots on. Then I brushed my teeth and told Cherokee I was leaving. I felt bad leaving her. Then I grabbed my phone and purse and waited for Tyler to come. As I sat on the couch there was a knock on the door. I opened the door and said hey and gave Tyler a hug. He was wearing jeans and a grey v-neck. He gave me a kiss. Then we went off to dinner. I obviously got a cheeseburger and French fries and Tyler got the same. The burgers were huge but so good. He was holding my hand and feeding me French fries. I was feeding him French fries too. He had to sign some autographs and take some pictures but I didn’t mind. I loved seeing him interact with the fans. When we were done we walked back to are apartment building. He asked me if I wanted to go to his place. I said sure. We took the elevator and walked to his apartment still holding hands. He led me to the couch and asked if I wanted to watch a movie and I said yes. We watched Billy Madison. I loved that movie it was hilarious. My head was on his chest. When the movie ended we just laid there and talked. In the middle of us talking he put me in his lap and we started kissing. I was really falling for him. In the middle of are kiss the apartment door opened it was Brad. I looked up and smiled at him. Tyler asked how his date was and Brad said it was a bust she was a puck bunny. He then walked to his room and shut the door. I felt bad for Brad. Then Tyler said we all can’t be as lucky as I am to have someone like you. I smiled and kissed Tyler’s cheek. I told Tyler maybe you, Brad and Cherokee and I can hangout tomorrow. He said I will check with Brad and text you tomorrow. I said ok then we kissed a little more. We couldn’t keep our hands off each other. It was getting late and I was exhausted from tryouts. I was about to say goodbye to Tyler when he told me I could crash there. He had a puppy dog face and I couldn’t say no. I said yes and he pulled me off his lap and ran to his room to grab something. He came back with a pair of sweatpants and a long sleeve bruin’s shirt and handed them to me. I told him I would be right back and changed into them and put my hair in a messy bun. Then I came out and he was watching something on TV. He heard me coming and said nice outfit and winked at me. I said thanks some guy gave it to me. He then grabbed me and put me on the couch and started tickling me. I said I am not responsible for your injuries while laughing. He then stopped and hovered over me and started kissing me. My arms were wrapped around his neck. We stopped and turned to the TV it was some reality show. We were watching it and I fell asleep in his arms. I woke up to see him carrying me to his room. He tucked me in and kissed my forehead. He was so sweet. Then I felt him lie down next to me and I cuddled into his chest and he put his arm around me. Then I drifted off to sleep.
Tyler’s Point of View.
I didn’t want the night to end so I invited her to my apartment. We watched Billy Madison she was so cute when she laughed. Then after the movie we talked and kissed a little .I couldn’t help it I loved to kiss her. Then Brad came in from a rough date and I could tell she felt bad for him. She was so sweet and caring. Then I asked her to stay the night and she said yes. She fell asleep on the couch and I carried her to my room and tucked her in and kissed her forehead. Then I changed and laid down next to her. She cuddled into my chest and put my arm around her. I would have a surprise for her in the morning.
Tyler: Hey just wanted to wish you good luck on your soccer tryout. Remember it’s just a practice. Text me when you're done.
I texted back:
