"Ow ow." I groaned, resting my head on my pillow and disposing a tissue stained with blood.
"I'll go get some drugs for your headache now okay." Ueta said running out of the room.
*Damn it.* I thought rolling on my bed.
REC:
Team A started passing the ball round and ran for our goal post. As the right midfielder, I ran towards Akaji since he was with the ball.
*Got it.* I thought about to take the ball but he did a crazy spin and got past me.
*What the hell?*
"Hey, Kiichi fall back!" Nakamura shouted.
"I know that." He answered falling back.
*I gotta help.* I thought running towards our post.
Kimishita was able to get the ball and he passed it to Nakamura.
"Nice clear." He said running with the ball.
*Forward.* I thought running towards the opposite goal post.
"Atsushi!" Nakamura called before passing the ball to the wing where I was.
*Thanks man.* I thought running with the ball.
Soon, Watabe began running towards me. "Crap, I can't dribble past him." I said as he smiled.
*Or so you thought I'd say.* I thought stopping in my tracks.
"There's no where to run to." He said smiling.
*Oh no, the others would be here soon.* I thought as I moved back a little and ran by the side.
"Huh? There's no way you'd pass me." He said running infront of me.
*What do you think of me? I actually played with my uncle who was really good.* I thought raising the ball up with my leg, I lobbed the ball over his head.
The ball went over his head and I kept running with it before passing it to Kimishita.
"Nice." He said running with the ball.
"No you don't." Kisho said sliding for the ball. He ran with the ball before passing to Akaji.
"What the fuck are you doing, Kimishita!" Nakamura shouted as we began running back.
"Oh my, he looks cool." Tamura Himari said, looking at him dreamily.
*Fuck off bitch." I thought as he shot the ball.
*No...!*
"Safe." Saitō said holding onto the ball.
"Haha, sorry guys, I'll get it next time." He said falling back.
*Th-that was a close one.* I thought as Saitō threw the ball to Sugawara who then passed it to Kimishita.
"Guys, we're gonna get it!"
"Says the guy who let the ball get stolen." Nakamura said.
"Tch💢. Am gonna get it this time." He said running with the ball.
The both of them(Nakamura and Kimishita) kept trading passes with each other till they reached the other teams post.
"Go in!" Nakamura screamed shooting the ball into the net.
"GOAL!!!"
"Heck yeah!" He screamed.
*That was cool, I'll try to get the next one* I thought standing in my position and waiting for the game to continue.
"Keep passing to me and we'll score more." Nakamura said smiling.
The game continued with team A trading passes with each other.
"Ryuto, here." Akaji called for the ball.
"Got it." Watabe said passing it to him.
"Fall back!!"
Well, once again he wasn't able to score. Saitō was doing well in his position.
*Saitō's doing well. I'm just messing up.* I thought, looking away.
The ball was thrown to Tamura and she passed it to me. I ran forward looking for who to pass the ball to.
"Kimishita-kun." I called passing the ball to him since he was tye only free one.
"Cool!" He said smiling as the ball got stolen from him again.
"Shit!"
"Heh heh, look at your side while holding onto the ball my good man." Watabe said, running with it and passing to Akaji.
*Crap, not again.* I thought.
I ran towards Akaji and slid for the ball, I hit the ball but it was loose.
*Got him.*
"Nice clear!"
"Get it! Atsushi!" Nakamura shouted as I ran for it.
I passed the ball to Nakamura who passed it to Kimishita. Kimishita passed back to Nakamura and the ball was stolen again.
"TANAKA!" Watabe called kicking the ball high.
"Not happening." I said when he was about to play it back to him with his head.
As my head was about to hit the ball, he hit me on my lip with his elbow. I lost balance and fell then he stepped on my head, accidentally.
*Shit!*
"I'm really sorry, didn't see you there." He said stretching his hand for me to grab it.
*Bastard!* It was an accident but it hurt.
"Here." Ueta said giving me some pills.
"Thanks." I said collecting them.
"Won't you join them?"
"Well, it's not as if I can. The game's not gonna be balanced." She said sitting on her bed.
"Oh, yeah. Hope they are doing okay." I said looking out of the window.
"Yeah." She answered.
*In the end I was still a hindrance.* I thought, lying back on my bed.
"Hey come on, it wasn't my fault." Yusuke said as they all walked into the sitting room.
"T'was totally your fault man, I told you to pass but you didn't wanna." Kiichi said.
"Oh hey, how are you feeling now, Atsushi-kun?" Akaji asked as I cut a carrot, I could really imagine him smiling.
"I'm okay, it doesn't hurt much."
"I'm really sorry for that." He said.
"It's no problem, stuff like that happen, right?" I asked.
*Yeah yeah, bastard.*
"Oh, something smells nice." Kimishita said looking at me.
*He totally forgot the practice match😑.*
"So you guys, looks like you guys still got a really long way to go, I see you guys failing any match you play anytime now." The coach said.
"Oh, we are sorry coach." Akaji said smiling.
"We'll try our best to become better."
"Hmm, extra practice for the team that lost." Was the coach's only response before walking up the stairs.
"Whoa, we messed up big time." Saitō said, sitting on the sofa.
"Don't mind, I think you did really great Koenji." Akaji said smiling.
"Oh, thanks." Saito said without looking up at him.
"Oh, and the girls, you guys were awesome out there." He said giving them a really bright smile.
*You mean great job fawning over you?* I thought before removing the apron.
"Oh, he's done." Kimishita said happily.
"Dinner time." Watabe said as they all sat round the table.
Ueta helped me set the table before we sat with the others.
"Thanks."
"No problem."
We all finished dinner around the same time and they decided that we all stay up together and have a nice chat.
*Boring, I really wanna go back up.* I thought resting on a sofa.
"I was totally in the soccer team in our world." Watabe said.
"Whoa, same here."
They kept talking about what they did back in high school and all. I shut my eyes to pretend like I was asleep to avoid saying anything and before long, I was out.
