Her saving Grace

Chapter 5



Chapter 5

I run for a ball as well, keeping a keen eye on my opponents. There were a lot of balls thrown at me,

but luckily, I dodged all of them. I then directed my ball towards a girl and throw it. The ball hit the girl

on her leg. The girl gave me a glare as she trudged towards the benches. I lifted my hand and waved

at her,

grinning widely.

The game continued until only a few of us were le t. On my team, there were three of us; Lucas,

another boy and I. On the opposing team, there were four peo le; Carson, two girls and another boy.

One of the girls was on the track team. Our classmates who had been iminated was cheering us on

from the benches.

I grab for another ball and directed my attention to Carson. Carson, however, was paying attention to

the boy on my team, who had just thrown a ball towards him. He dodged it skillfully. Taking my chance

at his distraction, I threw my ball at him. By the time Carson saw the ball, it was too late. The ball hit

him on his cheek.

Carson looked in my direction, shooting me a glare. He began to rub his cheeks sorely as he walked off

the court. The students from my class cheered loudly.

“Nice shot, little K.” Lucas cheered me, calling me by the nickname he has always used for me. He

then gave me a high five. I smiled at him quickly before turning my attention back to the game.

As the game progressed, Lucas was out as well as the other boy, leaving only me from my team. On

Mr. Durham’s team, the two girls were out, leaving only the boy.

The boy threw a lot balls at me, but I dodged them. I also threw a lot of balls at him and he dodged

them. The game was getting difficult, because it was only the two of us. We both were always watching

each other, so we always knew when the ball was coming. My classmates were cheering me one

loudly and his classmates were also cheering him on.

An idea popped into my head and I smiled to myself. I began to feign like I’m throwing the ball at him,

while he watched me and the ball like a hawk. I finally brought the ball above my head and set like I

was about to throw it. However, before the ball left my hands, I brought my hands down and directed

the ball for his foot.

When he had thought the ball was coming for his upper body, he had ducked down. By the time he

realized that I had changed position, he jumped into the air. However, he was too late, the ball hit him

on his foot.

When my classmates realized that we had won, they shouted loudly and began cheering. I jumped up

in joy as well. To be honest, this was the first time I’ve ever played dodgeball and was the last one

standing. Normally, I would’ve been out by the middle of the game. I guess I was getting better at this

game or it just pure luck.

“Good game, Kayla.” Ms. Levy praised. Students from my class came up after that and congratulate

me. “Alright, everyone hit the showers and head to your next class.” She shouted and everyone left the

gym.

As I was leaving the gym, I felt eyes on me and I turn around to see Carson looking at me. I waved at

him and he just turned away and walked out of the gym.

Way to be a sore loser, I thought to myself as I left the gym also and head for the showers in the girl’s

locker room.NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.

As soon as I finish showing, I put on my clothes in the shower like I always do. I do this because 1 don’t

want anyone to see the cuts and bruises on my skin and start asking questions. No one really

questions why I do that though. They just thought that I was self-conscious of my body or something.

When I was done, I put my P. E clothes in my gym bag, put it in my locker and went to my last class.

The following day at lunch time, my friends and I sat down at our table for lunch. We were busy joking

around and talking about random things, when I looked up at the entrance to the cafeteria.

Entering into the cafeteria, sporting all the confidence of the world was Carson and his three friends.

There were Michael Evans and the twins; Jayden and Jordan Moore.

They walked passed our table and Carson’s eye caught mine. I look away quickly. They walked to their

table and sat down.

“What’s up with you?” Jasmine asked when she realized that I had gone quiet. “Nothing. I was just

trying to avoid Carson.” I replied.

“Carson Knight?” She asked and I nodded. “Why? Are you into him?” “What? No!” I said shaking my

head quickly.

Jasmine laughed. “I was just asking. After all, he is hot.” She said.

I looked over to the table that Carson sat talking loudly with his friends. I have to admit, Jasmine is

right. He is hot. I’ve always noticed his arrogance before. but if you really look at him, he was good

looking. I see why girls would always chase him now. Not that I agree with their actions. They did not

care that the boys were going to dump them within a day or week. they just wanted a chance to be with

the hottest boys in school. How pathetic!

After lunch Jasmine and I he-ad to our AP Biology class. When we entered the class, most students

were already there, so our usual seat in the middle of the classroom was taken. I spotted two seats

near the back of the classroom and Jasmine and I went there to sit clown.
