"And the players have walked into the field. It's the last game of the day between Team F and Team C. Team F has gone with the 3-2-3-2 formation while Team C went for the 4-3-2-1 formation. Let's see how the game would go." The commentator said as a guy from Team F started passing the ball.
*I'll definitely help them win, no matter what.* I thought running to steal the ball from him.
"Oi oi, you're in the way, striker." One of them said pushing me.
"What the hell?" I asked trying to stand.
"Isn't that a foul?"
"The referee didn't say anything so let's leave it." Akaji said as they both helped me stand.
"GOAL!!! The game just started, what's up with that pass just now, they really gave Team C no chance at all!"
"Huh? They've scored." I said looking at them celebrate.
"Let's get the next one." Akatsuki said smiling as I nodded.
"We definitely won't lose to them." I said as Akatsuki passed the ball to Akaji.
"Just like we practiced, Akaji." I said as he nodded running forward with the ball.
"You won't be getting past, handsome." A guy from TF said running towards Akaji.
"Akatsuki." He called playing a really high pass to Akatsuki who trapped the ball and kept running with it.
"Hey, look. The other AMF, they'll pass to him next."
"Okay." Akatsuki said playing a long lofted kick towards Akaji.
"He's surrounded, would he be able to get the ball or what?" The commentator asked as I ran forward and dived, hitting the ball with my head and into the post.
"GOAL!!! What a spectacular goal that was, he wasn't even seen, he was on total ghost road!!"
"Yay." Watabe said as I, Akatsuki and Akaji high-fived each other.
"We did it." Akaji said smiling.
"Yeah, thanks guys." I said.
"Yeah, whatever, I'll get the next one." Akatsuki said.
"Let's see you try." I said as we bumped our fists.
"You're on."
"Um, please don't forget we all have the same goal." Akaji said.
"Yeah yeah,let's go to our positions."
"That was a great comeback from Team C! Let's see who would score the next goal."
"Guys, that first goal, let it be a fluke, they shouldn't score us again."
"Yes, captain!"
*Ugh, this sounds kinda...*
"Team F is running towards the enemies post, would they be able to score with their spectacular passes again?!"
"We protect our women." Watabe said sliding for the ball.
"What the?!"
"Cool, Watabe got it." Yusuke said as Watabe passed to Nakamura.
"Nakamura, watch your left!" I shouted.
"Kay." He said before passing to Hayashi.
"Here, Chika-chan." Akatsuki said smiling.
"Here." She said passing it to him.
"Am scoring guys." He said smiling before dribbling past the defence and scoring a goal.
"WHAT!!! THAT WAS A COOOOOL SOLO RUN AND HE GOT THE POST VIBRATING!!!"
"That was nice, Akatsuki." I said running towards him.
"Yeah right." He said happily high-fiving me.
"Let's go again." I said smiling as he nodded.
The game started again and Nakamura didn't even let them reach the girls.
"Sorry, I have a job to protect them." He said winking before passing the ball to Akatsuki.
"Wh-where'd he come from?" The guy asked as Akatsuki passed the ball to Akaji who scored.
"Another goal from this team, they're disappearing out of sight!!"
"Whoa, Akaji that was a super header." Akatsuki said high-fiving him.
"Yeah."
"Good ball, Akaji." I said smiling.
"Thanks."
"Oh, he's so dreamy." Tamura said smiling.
*Urgh.*
"Wh-what's wrong with these people, are they monsters or what?"
"And that's the end of the game, a total win for Team C, a 5-1 victory!!!!"
"Whoo!!! We won!" Tamura said.
"Nice work guys, let's keep this up." I said smiling.
"Yes, we'll surely keep it up." Watabe said.
"Looks like our practice did pay off."
"Yeah."
"I recorded the game, be sure to watch later." Sugawara said.
"Yeah."
"And captain." Watabe called.
"Hmm." I answered looking at him.
"Throughout the game, you kept calling us by our last names."
"Huh?"
"Yeah, that's true." Akaji said.
"I do call Akatsuki and Koenji by their first names."
"That's different, we've been living together since last year, we're like family now aren't we?" Watabe asked.
*Family, huh?* I thought before smiling.
"Am sorry, maybe I'll start today, Ryuto-san."
"Yeah, that's about right." He said giving me a thumbs-up.
"You're too energetic."
"Yeah, why won't I be."
"Let's go guys." I said as we walked out of the building and waited for our ride.
It was already dark by the time we got home so I prepared something fast and we had it for dinner, after having our night shower.
When they all went up, I went back to the training room for some weight lifting.
"Do you always do stuff like this.?" Someone asked as I dropped the barbell.
"Oh, it's you Yamazake-San." I said standing up.
"It's Akane." She said as I smiled.
*Oh yeah, they asked me to call them by their first names.*
"Oh, right, Akane-chan." I said as she smiled.
"Yeah."
"What are you doing out alone? It's already late." I said as she sat on a bench.
"I couldn't sleep so I decided to come out."
"Oh, same here." I said gulping down a bottle of water.
"Oh."
*Now what?* I thought as we sat down not saying anything to each other.
*Argh, this is a bother.*
"So um... how'd you learn to play soccer, i heard you never played in a field before so i got curious." She said. as I looked at her.
"Hmm, yeah, I never really played in a field or many people." I said.
*I've not actually told anyone, not like it's a secret or anything.*
"Oh well, if you really want to know then." I said as she adjusted on the bench.
"Yeah, I want to hear it." She said smiling.
*Why's she so curious about my life story, it's not like it's of any importance.* I thought before positioning myself.
"Here goes nothing."
