"Let's get going guys," I said smiling as we all walked into the field.
"Yet another day and we have an interesting match between Team C against Team D. Let's see the team that'll be victorious in this match." The commentator said sounding uninterested.
"Team C, you guys look like kids, we'll win you guys and show the others that you've won how pitiful you guys are." A guy with spiky hair said.
"Hey, Shut the fuck up and start passing the damn ball," Yusuke said.
"Tchh."
The Referee blew the whistle to begin the game and they began passing the ball back.
"I'll show you guys… how soccer is played." He said with a smirk before running forward with the ball.
*He's crazy." I thought running for the ball.
"Hey! Fall back!" I shouted as he dribbled past Hinami and Chika.
*Well I'll give it to him, he's kinda good, but am sure he won't go past the others.* I thought as Kimishita slid for the ball, hitting it with the tip of his left foot and making it go over the line for a throwing.
"Tch, still our ball though." He said walking back.
*Good job, Kimishita.* I thought smiling before walking a few meters away from the guy.
The guy with the ball threw it into the field and over to the guy with the spiky hair but I ran behind him, jumped and headed it towards the middle where Akatsuki ran and took possession of the ball.
"HUH?!" He shouted furiously as I ran forward.
*Since our goals matter the most, I'll make sure we get the highest goals. Even though I will get a big reward for being the highest scorer.* I thought.
"You guys! Attack!!!" Spiky-kun shouted as the others ran towards Akatsuki.
"And so you have it, today's match was a complete victory for Team C." The commentator said.
"Yay! We did it!." Akane said smiling.
"Tsk, we weren't at our best today, that's all." The spiky hair guy said sitting on the floor.
"Yeah yeah," I said smiling while stretching my hands out for him to grab onto.
"Hope to see you in the tournament," I said as he looked down.
"Atsushi-kun, am not sure… we might be able to." He said before walking away.
*Huh? How'd he know my name?* I thought before someone grabbed me by the shoulder.
"Let's get going, am getting hungry," Akatsuki said.
"You always get hungry. Well, you did great once again." I said smiling at him.
4-0
"Ha… am seriously getting tired. Why do we have to play for two days in a roll?" Ryuto asked, lying lazily on the couch.
"The year will be ending soon. They may want us to finish the selection stage this year." Hinami said.
"Am so tired, I can't play anymore," Akatsuki said.
"Well, it's an evening match, don't be so discouraged," I said smiling.
*Am quite excited.* I thought, baking some cookies.
"Do you need any help?" Misaki asked.
"Rare for you to want to help me out," I said smiling.
"I wanted to discuss something with you." She whispered as I looked down at her.
"Yet another win for Team C. Even though they played the previous day they are still energetic."
2-0
"And times up, Team C has coke out victorious yet again, they are taking on the whole game."
3-0
"You guys have been doing well so far. You guys will be going on a long break for now. Your next match would be scheduled sometime next month." The coach said as the others sighed.
"Finally, I was thinking they wanted us dead," Suzune said.
"I'll be spending most of that time sleeping, am tired," Ryuto said.
*I was getting tired too.* I thought looking at Akaji who just smiled at the others.
*He hasn't been scoring much, I expected him to be kinda mad. Well, it's not like he'll act like he's gonna open up to the others.* I thought as they stood up.
"Am going to bed, Atsu.* Akatsuki said as I nodded.
"Later."
"Yeah."
"Hey, let's have a bath."
"Yeah."
*Ha… we've come this far. I know we can make it.* I thought, heaving a sigh of relief.
"You look somehow tired, captain," Suzune said walking towards me.
"Oh, Suzune," I called smiling at her.
"It's been kinda tiring," I said as she sat beside me.
"It's only natural, you've been training since, you hardly stayed in the room." She said.
"Oh, yeah. I don't want to be a burden for the guys, especially now that am Captain." I said looking away.
"If am to say, you've been doing great." She said smiling at me.
"Oh, thanks," I said looking away.
"So, let's go out tomorrow."
"Huh?"
