Chapter Text
Aiden pulled her rusty, old Chevrolet Truck into the handicap spot of Devenford Prep high. Surely no handicapped person at the school utilized the parking space. If they did, then they need to work harder to ensure that they’re not so helpless that they can't walk a couple of yards.
The girl stepped out from the driver’s seat and locked her truck named Sandy, who was named after her late grandma. the short brunette then grabbed a cigarette from her camels pack and started smoking. The air before her was engulfed in a white, cloud of smoke. It was a bad habit but she told herself she’d quit if she had a good enough reason too. As she walked along the sidewalk, she took note of the looks she received from everyone . it wasn’t a surprise to her, they had a great reason to stare :
Aiden single-handedly destroyed more kids than a divorce. She also brought a teacher to tears and then forced an early retirement. The poor guy was physically and mentally exhausted and worn down due to her behavior and ability to weasel her way into people’s minds.
To make matters worse a police record like hers is filled with numerous counts of theft, vandalism, breaking and entering, and public soliciting, etc.
All in all, Aiden Stanway is a badass and she wanted everyone to know it.
She smirked to herself when she noticed a 5’10 blonde figure approaching her.
“ Myke “ she greeted.
“Aids “ she countered, while wordlessly asking for the cancer stick, She took a long drag and handed it back to her slightly shorter friend. The shorter of the two described her disdain for the nickname by smacking her in the back of the head . Micah has a slender build that correlates with her height. Her golden - beige hair runs just past her shoulders, while the maya shade of blue radiates from her eyes.
Micah exhaled the smoke out of her respiratory system, “you decided to come to school today.”
“yeah, i gotta keep everyone on their toes. Plus according to coach, game-days are non-negotiable if I want to stay on the squad, “ Aiden readjusted her sleeves, rolling them up a bit , while looking around the courtyard. She hated the place with a passion, everything from the people with the exception of 2 to the teachers. The only good thing about the school was they were able to afford clean, green grass fields instead of crappy turf.
Aiden and Micah’s phones rang off simultaneously as a notification popped up from a group chat.

*Micah’s POV *
I was a bit bummed when heading into the locker room. I'm available and standing right in front of her, for god’s sake! Lola was the first one I came out as trans too . When the hell will I get a chance? Every time I talk to her, I become entranced in her honey - brown eyes. The chocolate locks hang loosely in front of her face when she laughs and her adorable accent sends a warm sensation through my heart. I just wish she would look at me the same way I see her.
--
Everyone in the locker room was hyped up for the start of the season. Rap Music was blaring through the speakers while some players were busting out dance moves - both good and bad others were getting mentally prepared and going through their pregame rituals.
Lola taped up my hands and slid each of my gloves on like we do every game and we sealed it with a hug. a friendly one because after all, we're just friends.
--
I was standing at the goal line looking at Lola in the crowd. She was cheering on the team as she clapped energetically. My heart swelled every time I lay eyes on her. I can practically hear her yells of excitement when all the noise around me fades away. My attention faltered from the game to the beautiful girl I’ve had a crush on since 5th grade.
The first 30 minutes of the game were boring as hell, all I do is kick grass and play the ball when it’s needed. In the 55th minute, we were able to get the ball up the field and into the box for a shot but the opposing goalie was able to get a hand on it and push it out of bounds .
The most important moment of the game was when I launched the ball up the field directly at Aiden's feet a couple of yards away from goal, she saw their keeper off her line and chips the ball. It successfully flies over the keepers head and into the net making it 1 - 0.
The crowd started to rally eagerly when Aiden scored our first goal. I glanced up in the stands to only make eye contact with Lola. A smile formed on her face as she held a thumbs up. I quickly sent back a response back by winking alluringly.
The rest of the game remains uneventful with the exception of a few easy saves i had to make in order to save shots our defense shouldn’t have let up . The ref blew her whistle signaling the end of the game. Afterwards the team all shook the opponents hands and celebrated our first of hopefully many wins of the season .
(3rd person)
Aiden and Micah emerged from the locker room in positive spirits as the hard - fought win replayed in their heads like a record player. The pair walked along the paved road of the parking lot, when Lola appeared from the field entrance.
Lola quickly threw her hands around her two best friends. “You guys played so bloody well! I’m a proud mum!.”
“I’ll be the dad.” Micah sarcastically remarked. “And Aiden can be the family dog.”
The short brunette pulled away then annoyingly looked at Micah. “I have a feeling I know what you're about to say.”
Micah nodded. “Yep, Your a B I T C--.”
“I swear if you finish that word, you will wish you’ve never crossed my path.”
“H.” As soon as that letter slipped from her mouth, she raced through the lot. Aiden dropped her athletic bag then sprinted after her. They weaved in and out of cars, as the girl’s legs moved rapidly. Their temples were filling up with sweat that dripped down the sides of their faces. Micah finally made it to the truck and glanced back over her shoulder to see Aiden advancing towards her. Micah yelled back to Lola who was carrying the bags. “Unlock the truck!”
Lola smirked and shook her head. “Sorry, love.”
Aiden playfully punched Micah in the arm, then continued to take blows. The accented girl watched her friends wrestle in the middle of the parking lot until she was interrupted by a notification. The contact I.D. read, Lucas which made the girl’s heart quicken.
Lucas 😛
Hey babe , you down to hangout w/ me and the lacrosse boys ? we’re basically attending a huge party. you should come ?
Lucas 😛

Lola
That sounds fun! What’s the address?
Lucas
9463 River Creek Avenue
This is one of the biggest parties of the year. A hot chick at my school is throwing it.
Lola
Okay, we’ll be there. See you soon 😊
“Earth to Lola? Who are you texting?”
Lola whipped her head from the screen to see Aiden and Micah staring at her. “It’s no one important.”
“I don’t believe you.” Aiden accused. “Your blushing, so that means it’s someone you find very attractive.”
Micah furrowed her eyebrows. “That’s weird. I don’t remember having my phone on the field….”
“Seriously, Micah?! Now’s not the time to play around. Lola has very important information to tell us.” Aiden turned to the curly-haired girl. “What happened?”
Lola fumbled with her fingers, something she did a lot when nervous. “I just got invited to a party. It’s the guy I’ve been talking to recently and he’s really nice.”
“Where’s the party?” Micah asked.
“He sent me the address, but apparently it’s at a girl’s house that attends school with him. He said you guys can come too .”
Aiden grabbed her bags from the road, then threw it in the bed of her truck. She started the engine with ease and hung her head out of the car window. “Get in losers, we're going to a party!”
