Previous Chapter

Big Mac up with sore muscles as he looked over at the clock, it was still to early to wake up, but Thad had wanted all the remaining players to be at the school at dawn so they could train to become players. As Mac got up he had still wondered how Caramel had gotten him into this. Mac got dressed and left the house yawning, he decided to get breakfast at school today so he wouldn't be late. Mac walked outside and could feel the cold air against his skin, it was fall already so that meant Winter would be coming soon. Mac got into his truck and started the engine and leaned back into his chair so the engine could warm up. After a while he began on his way to the school, at the stop sign he could see a few other students walking to the school as well. Mac pulled into the usual parking space and got out and began to walk to the field. Mac could see that there were fewer players now than on Friday. This meant that Mac and his friends had a higher chance of getting onto the team.

There were now 40 people all shivering, that meant 5 had already givin it up, and if 35 were allowed on the team, that meant as long as they lasted longer than 5 others they would be on the team and then tryout for positions. Thad came out onto the field carrying a box of Apple Fritters, the smell intoxicated Mac and everyone else on the team, Thad then stopped and set the box down on a table.

"Listen up, there are only 35 Apple Fritters, and 40 of you, so that means theres only enough for those who can make the team, today you will train until you can not even stand on you own, to start i want you all to run as fast as you can and dodge this football," Thad said as he picked up a football, "if you are hit, then you can go home, if you start to cry, i will hit you again." Thad then blew his whistle as all the players rushed to the other end of the field, Mac looked over and could see one of the students get pegged with the Football and hit the ground hard. Mac could only run faster, as they had reached the other end, Mac counted 36 players, that meant Thad had gotten most of them, and now only one of them would be kicked off. Thad walked up and down as he looked at each and everyone one of us, the sun was starting to rise as more students came, Thad finally stopped as he pointed to shortest player and gave him the sign that he was kicked off. Thad then smirked,

"Now to decided who does what the Fritters are first come, first served, so go," That said to us

Mac and the other players made a dash for the Apple Fritters, as they all did Mac grabbed 3 and ran over to Whooves and Caramel, they thanked him and ate, after they had all gotten a Fritter Thad dismissed them and told them to the school. Each of the players groaned as they crossed the field, they were all sore from the training but proud to be on the team, as they entered the school Caramel caught up with Mac and Whooves.

"Ok, not exactly my idea, but we made it," Caramel said excited

"Yeah, not my cup of tea, but i guess your right," Whooves said.

"I just hope this is your last scheme Caramel," Mac said as he looked at Caramel.

Caramel only snicked as he went on his way to class, followed by Whooves and Mac.

As lunch approached Mac, Caramel, and Whooves all met up in the lunch room and went to see what position they had gotten, when they had got there, a large crowd was surrounding the sheet of paper with the names of there players, Mac and Caramel were able to push the other students out of the way as Whooves got up close and read the names,

"OK looks like I got Running back, Caramel, you got Wide Receiver, and as for Mac, WOW!! You got Quarter Back Mac", Whooves stated as he left the mosh pit of students.

Mac, Caramel, and Whooves all patted each other on the back and then went back to there usual seat in the Cafeteria. They all talked among themselves until they saw Apple Jack and Dash coming over to them.

"Saw you made the team Mac," Apple Jack said as she patted her brother on the back.

"Yeah, Quarter Back Mac, has a nice ring to it," Dash said as she snickered at the rhyme.

Caramel, Whooves, and AJ all soon took part in trying to hold back their laughter at Mac's new nickname, however Mac didn't take this as being funny and shot a glare at Apple Jack, who stopped her laughing to look at Mac.

"Don't y'all worry Mac, it is better than Macky," AJ said to Mac, only causing everyone at the table to laugh harder at this new learned nick name.

"Macky are you serious," Caramel said as he burst out laughing.

"Better than the nickname Ditzy gave me," Whooves said as he laughed.

"Wow Macky, and here I thought you were some big strong tuff guy, but now, im not to sure," Dash said smugly as she started to laugh.

Mac sighed as he learned that this would never end, and that he would have to stick with it, however if he was going down, he would at least take them all down with him. Mac took a deep breath and slammed his hands on the lunch table as everyone looked at him.

"Ah see, if thats the way you want to play it, then il step on in, Whooves, why not tell me more about the nickname Ditzy gave ya, Caramel, you do realize that being on the team means doing more work and keepin up with your studies, AJ, remember when you were younger were always terrified when ah left anytime, and you still are, and Dash, is it all right if i call a little girl like you My Little Dashie," Mac stated as he leaned back in his chair to look at all of his friends faces.

Caramel had his head down, mentally slapping himself over and over again, thinking of all the extra work he signed u to do, Whooves was blushing and laughing nervously as he looked away, AJ eyed Mac, a blush on her face, she couldn't deny it, but instead walked away, Dash however froze, a blush on her face, not really knowing how to reply to this, or even the fact that she would even blush, her friends called her Dashie all the time, and it never phased her, but when he called her that, she felt something strange, so instead of saying anything she left, heading to the nurse.
