@livinglavidalance needs a starter
Sweat dripped down Eugene’s brow as he steadied his breathing. The Rockside soccer team had just finished some intense sprints, a rigorous finish to an “easy first-day-of-school” practice. Forehead feeling warm under his forearm’s touch, Eugene swigged some water from his water bottle. The liquid, despite the sticky and hot humid air, felt cool and refreshing as it hydrated his body.
He nodded along to the coach’s speech and took another deep, wavering breath as his lungs greedily inhaled the fresh oxygen. Based on their pre-season practices, Eugene knew that this team was going to an all-start team. But he was unsure how things would go against Stonehear’s team, a group of people that he previously played with.
“Lance, Lance, Lance, my man!” Eugene cried after the coach finished his speech. They were on their way off the field and he swung his arm around around the sophomore’s shoulders. He pulled the younger male closer to him as his other hand flourished through the air, water flinging from his bottle’s spout. “How’s dear ol’ Rockside treating ya so far this year? Hopefully no unpleasantness are crossing your path.”
