I walked to the field slowly as I caught sight of ken as I walked on the grass I felt like I was doing a medium exercise considering the way I had to step so hard to remove my shoe before I continue walking it felt like a magnet was on the ground pulling my shoe anytime I took a step ." I didn't know the shoe was made of metal iron or even the grass " I muttered as I realize that I stepped on a gum I smacked my head why didn't I check why I even tripped I knew I was clumsy but falling out of no where was not really my thing ."Ugh who throws a piece of gum on the floor if it was normal i don't think the school would have put a trash bin and also placed a sign on the trash bin ' throw your trash in here ' "I said reading the small sign which was on the trash bin anytime I went to throw something . I sighed as I took my backpack opening it as I was about to take a tissue paper from my bag before I heard someone callmy name I turned back thinking it was Clara and Lyda but it wasn't I looked ahead as I saw ken wave at me running towards me . " I probably would die of heart attack " I muttered as I watch ken jog towards me with his perfect long legs and his hair bouncing freely I guessed he poured water on his hair considering the way it stuck to the side of his face .And gosh the Jersey so cute on him .I stopped smiling stupidly as he stood in front of me catching his breath . I stopped smiling as I quickly thought of something I unzipped my bag as I took out one of my handkerchief offering it to him . I stretched out my hand giving him the handkerchief hoping Lyda and Clara would come to help me I turned back to check whether they were already here as I kept on swinging my hand for ken to take the towel I frowned a little as I turned back to ken looking at the towel . "Here don't you want to clean your sweat " I said smiling as he nodded yes . "But I thought maybe you could help me " he said as my cheek immediately turned pink i knew this sounded stupid but i felt I could fly right now . I cleared my throat nodding as I took the towel moving towards him I slowly used it to clean the side of his face and his fore head . I turned to see Clara and Lyda coming towards me smiling like jerks as I offered a small smile to ken who took the towel hanging it on his shoulder . "Hi maria " Clara said as Lyda pushed my shoulder . "Hi ken " Lyda said as Clara also waved at him ken waved as he came to stand at my side . Clara and Lyda dragged me by the hand as I told ken to excuse us . "Wow maria you did good " Lyda said giving me a high five as I reluctantly took it smiling . "Yeah sure baby I am sorry we actually took time a long line to the cafe everybody just trying to get some snacks before the game begins " Clara said . "Okay sure what am I now going to do?" I asked because if I were to say I wasn't freaking nervous then I am literally lying I haven't really talked to a boy I know it would sound weird coming from a girl who has a brother but most of the time I just quarrel and fight with my brother we never had a natural conversation until yesterday which am still regretting . " um ... Uh just talk to him for now then we figure out something don't do anything stupid girl " Clara said as I gave her a sarcastic look . "Go on " I looked at Lyda as she shoved me again to walk up to ken I sighed as I walked back to him . "Um .... Hi " I said again as he smiled at me . "Let's go " he said as he took my hand dragging me to the volley ball court this was fast I turned back to Clara as she ran towards me handing me the bottles of water she whispered good luck before running back to Lyda. We walked to the volleyball court or he dragged me to it we sat on the bench as I breath heavily ...why the rush . "Maria I see you are not the sporty time " he said laughing as I glared at him while smiling . "Of course I love sport I just wasn't aware or ready when you were planing to run you should give me a heads up anytime you want to run or jog at least I would prepare myself " I said as he laughed out. "Okay miss " We sat down as I watch the girls come out to do their cheer leading Lyda was among as I clapped out cheering for her . They danced about as i watch Lyda ,Clara came to sit by my side as she smiled at me . "I don't know Lyda joined the cheer leading group ?" I asked . "So as you didn't know that I joined the basketball girls club which I haven't attended " Clara said as I chuckled I never followed them to sport because I always skipped it I would just spend my time reading a book at the library or something . " and so as you didn't know that I put your name in the swimming competition " Clara said as I stopped laughing . I probably am sure that I got water in my ears because Clara said something that I would probably strangle her right now . "What ...did ... You ..do ? I asked slowly and carefully . " I told you that we are going to pick a sport " "No you said relay race " " girl you said that we are going to do the relay ..... " I was about to say where she stopped me . "Yeah sure where you guys take turn in swimming girl don't you know the definition of a relay race " Clara said sarcastically as she rolled her eyes eating a cracker . Wow here I was panicking and here she was eating crackers what wrong with my friends huh . " girl stop panicking it just swimming it not like it something new you swim every time we went to the beach you even love swimming remember the time when you almost killed me and Lyda for breaking your hand because you couldn't swim with us ???So that not a case you just gotta to put on your confident pants and swim so you can impress little sir knight player"Clara said wiggling her brows in ken's direction I sighed .Maybe it wasn't that bad swimming is my thing I just got to focus but the problem was that I only swim when my family were with me and my close friends but now many people are watching and it kinda awkward . One of the girls which I had seen playing basketball walked up to Clara . "Hey dude coach wants us to come so we could practice before game " she said as Clara nodded she waved at me as I only nodded half heartedly . " do you want some water ?" I asked as ken nodded I handed him the bottle of water as I took mine taking a sip from it . Why can't my heart return to it normal pace .Oh I know why because of Clara sometimes I wonder how we became friends but my parent where already friends with her own parent even before i was born my dad already told me the story countless times about how them met in their university days it was so stupid but kinda good . So me and Clara became friends I always go to her house to spend time with her so as she . she could come to our house anytime and stay whenever she likes . I liked her a lot and at the same time I want to smack her head hard enough for it to show a red light so she would know I hate sport . I sighed again as I turned to see that Lyda was already done i wasn't even watching because Clara distracted me .Probably Lyda would come and ask about her dance and I would lie that it was perfect not like it the first time and she does it too she told me how I looked perfect in my clothes but I found out yesterday that i t was just a lie . I turned to ken as I watch him unscrew the bottle about to drink before he turned to me specifically my hands which I was still holding the bottle he screwed the bottle back close as I frowned . " is there something wrong with the water ?" I asked as he nodded then he did something that made my head go blank he threw the water bottle at the back getting a good aim at the trash bin without even turning then he took my water before opening it and drinking it . My brain cells stopped functioning as I watch ken drink without raising the bottle a little bit from his mouth I turned my head to face the field as I blushed . "Mhm refreshing " ken said handing me the remaining water . "Why did you toss the water ?" I asked . "Because I didn't like it " "But I drank that " I said pointing at the water in my hand for some reason my hands where feeling clammy . " and I drank it too " "You are not getting my point .l said shaking my head . We just kissed " I muttered looking at the bottle. "No ...uh uh we shared an indirect kiss totally different maria " ken said smiling as I sealed my lips nodding slowly as I turned my stiffer neck back to the field .I would probably commit suicide before the end of today because things where getting awkward first Clara and Lyda now ken . Ken chuckled as I didn't even turn to ask why probably he was laughing at how silly my face was considering my cheeks had this weird shade of red in other words I was blushing . " let me head down to my team I will be back " ken said as he stood up I tuned to him raising my head as I nodded I frowned as he was still standing he bent forward as he whispered . "Less I forget you look beautiful today " .I blushed again as he stood up winking at me he tossed his backpack lightly on my leg as he jogged to his friend . I looked at the back pack as I placed it on the bench next to mine before turning to face the field . Now I knew how ken was planing on killing me I would blush till my cheek turns sooo red that blood would spill out .... Thousand ways to die .I thought as I chuckled as I stood up holding the back pack to go look for my two friends who ditched me .
