Chapter 19: XIX
We were in the lead by a few points and these fuckers were making us work extra hard on getting goals and defending.
Damn this team is making us work hella hard. I was sweating profusely I forgot to take my hair clips out and tie my hair back, I also didn't bring a hair tie, so I was fucked anyway.
Right now my team was at the other side of the field so I could take a break, but I still had to be on high alert. These were the last few minutes of today's game. Breathe.
I opened my eyes as I took a deep breath, the girls were constantly kicking and fighting against the other team in any that they could, trying to make a goal. Come on guyssss! The refs blew their whistles signaling the end of the game. We didn't get the last goal, but we did it! We won!
We lined up to shake hands with the other team and we all circled up to cheer and celebrate. I heard the boys whooping and cheering, some of the boys dapped me up with some of the goals I saved.
Someone's hand snaked around my waist and pulled me against their chest making me tense up as whoever it is placed their chin on my shoulder, "It's just me babes." and I chuckled turning around to look at him.
"You scared me asshole. I was getting ready to deck you."
"That wouldn't be very nice."
"It's not nice to creep up on people so we would be even." He pulled me out of the crowd and wrapped his arm around my neck.
"Rude." and I shrugged once more, "good job on winning your game though."
"Thank you, they made us work extra hard for that win." I thanked with a smile. I pulled him into a hug and he returned it.
"You still look beautiful by the way." He whispered in my ear as he pressed a kiss to my temple.
"Don't kiss me there, I'm sweaty and gross." I say laughing and pushing his face away.
"And that is supposed to stop me because?" He asked as he dragged me to the sidelines and made me sit on his lap.
"Darren are you sure you want me on your lap-"
"If you even think of finishing that sentence involving your weight we're gonna fight." he joked, but he was dead serious.
"No, no, no. I know your scrawny ass can hold me, but I was gonna say do you want me to sit in your lap in public?"
"First off I'm svelte. Second off why wouldn't I want you on my lap? And third are you scared that people might see us as a couple?"
"I'm not scared of that! I didn't know we were dating. Yeah I know I confessed on Sunday and you kissed me, but I didn't get the chance to ask if we were a thing." I play with my fingers and looked away.
"Let's change that, so we both know and that everyone here knows." Huh?
"Darren wha-?" I asked confused as he lightly pushed me off his lap and walked until he was in the front. Darren-
"Kalina Eden!" Darren started which caused people at the game to look at him, "I really like you! I like you more than I've ever liked someone, so much that I love you!" My eyes shot open as he said that, "Do me the honors of becoming my first girlfriend?!" He shouted up and he looked directly at me.
I couldn't stop the smile from crossing my face as I stood up seeing people watching me, "Darren Mercedes I would love nothing more! I love you too!" I yelled back feeling my entire body erupt as I accepted.
Darren and I jog over to each other and he grabs my face, "May I kiss you?"
"Yes." he leaned in as I answered. The people around us cheered as we kissed. Darren's hands moved from my face to my waist and wrapped his arms around me and picked me up breaking our kiss.
"Now we know for certain." Darren whispered in my ear as he put me down. I looked at his face and noticed he was red in the face too. I nodded I couldn't talk feeling too embarrassed. We rested our foreheads against each other before pulling away and walking hand and hand to our spot before.
We squeezed each other's hand tightly as everyone sat down to watch the starting game.

"Ref you should've called that!"
"Stop being biased!"
"Blind ass old men!"
Those shouts pretty much summed up the boy's soccer game. The refs were being biased and the boys were getting agitated by the newfound aggression.
"Is this what y'all do from the sidelines?" Darren asked laughing.
"Yea. We usually judge how you guys play on the field, but games like this, we yell at the refs and judge them."
"I never realized that. Well babes what would you say about me if I was still down there?" Darren asked.
"Slowdown buckaroo you don't need to know that."
He gasped, "I wanna know! You're holding out on me!" I laughed at his antics and he smiled I turned my attention back to the game and saw that a fight was about to break out.
"You ass you distracted me from the game."
"I didn't distract you per se but oh shit-" Darren cut himself off and I looked at the field once more seeing that the boys were fighting the other team.
"Oh shit!" the adults in the crowd went toward the boys and I watched as they pulled the boys off of each other.
"We need to go." Darren said tugging me to stand up.
"What about everyone else?"
"They're coming along, we need to move." Darren said continuing to pull me away from the fight. This shit right here is why other schools think we're ghetto fabulous. Sick!
