14 LOST SELVES

Jesse and Andrew is in the baseball dressing room with other players, Andrew turns to him, "today is a big day, playing with St. Gregory high school is actually awful and awesome at the same time" Jesse looks askance "awful I get but what the fuck is awesome playing with those cocky Catholic students, who acts all too official" Jesse puffs some air out of his mouth and rolls his eyes showing irritation "dude you just angry they are too good, beating us four times in a roll bruh that's savagery" Andrew laughs, Jesse angrily shuts his locker causing other players to jerk then looking at him, "it's just irritating how we still have to play with them" Jesse continues, unconcern about what he just did, "we have no other option you know, just... coach is a pressuriser, guess that's why we play too conscious of lossing, then end up lossing" "here he comes" Jesse says rolling his eyes and opening his locker. "Hey bruh" Derek says to Andrew and Jesse causually walking straight to his locker not hanging around for their responses, "what's going on with you two?" Andrew asks "dude been busy being an asshole" Jesse says with a sad smirk "C'mon you guys need to fix yourselves, you're like brothers, I'd go talk to him" Andrew says walking to Derek "No, stop" he tries stopping him "fuck" Jesse mutters. "Hey bruh! How are you doing?" Andrew asks "cool" Derek says casually, Andrew continues "so uh I noticed you and Jesse are no longer you know chilling, any problem?" Derek takes a deep breath then says "nothing, we cool" "Come on bruh, you guys are not, I know that, even I myself we've been quite off and..." Andrew still speaking but Derek cuts in "it's okay Andrew I don't wanna talk about nothing" "but dude, you..." Andrew tries speaking again but Derek cuts in yet again "I said I don't wanna fucking talk about any damn thing!!!" this earns both of them some stares from everyone "okay, okay" Andrew says with his hands above his shoulders in surrender as he walks back to his locker "I told you he is an asshole, following Chris and those bunch of weirdos like they are in some kinda cult or something" Jesse says loudly wanting Derek to hear every single word, Derek walks up to Jesse asking "what the shit did you just say?" hitting his face hard causing everyone to mutter "whooow" Jesse hits Dereks face back and soon they are on the floor exchanging blows, Derek is the one doing most of the hitting as their team mates begins to separate them, their coach walks into the scenario and joins in separating them "stop that now Derek, I said stop!" The coach separates them and Derek is panthing cleaning his lip that is stained with blood "what the hell is wrong with both of you?!" The coach continues, Jesse groans in pains as he stands up slowly "we have a game to play and instead of getting prepared you both are here hitting each other!!! We should be hitting the game for God damns sake!!!" "We are sorry coach" Derek and Jesse says in unison, "don't give a stake if you both are sorry, right after the game you both should see me in my office for your detention" The coach says in a loud voice "but coach..." Jesse tries speaking, the coach cuts in "that's it and what the hell are you all standing there looking at?!!!" Everyone returns to their businesses as the coach walks out.

******************************

The game is about starting as the players all surrounds their coach while he made sure their plans are well noted "this just a minor lague but we need to take it seriously" "yes sir" all the players says as he continues "Kennedy you are the pitcher, Tyler you are short stop, Ruben center, Zack, Derek and Jesse, first, second and third base, Barry catcher, Andrew left field and grey right," "wait why I'm I in base I'm supposed to be left field?" Derek asks "Didn't you tell him?" Coach asks looking at Jesse "I forgot" he shrugs "you forgot?" Derek asks "it's not my fault you are always late for practice or absent during announcements" Jesse looks unconcerned "coach, I'm better of in left field, we all know" Derek objects "there's no time now! Now you all lets win" he brings his hand forth and so did other players "1,2,3 Wildcats!!!" Coach calls "we win" they yell in unison raising their hands "now go, go, go!" The coach says tapping few players on their backs as the game begins. Immediately kennedy throws the ball as he runs towards Zack, the barter from the opposing team strikes the ball far away then runs to Derek, Jesse weakly tries tagging and fails but zack did, Derek and Jesse were both playing off The next round the opposing player cross-passes Zack. After numerous fails of the wild cats even after exchange, their opponents won.

"We lost" Jesse says "And it's no ones fault" Andrew adds, "You should meet Derek, you guys need to talk, I know St. Gregory are good but I saw what you both did there, you both added no efforts and we'll die next meeting cause coach is furious, he'll literally pull our heads off our shoulders cause what we did there, especially you and Derek is a shame take it from me bruh" Andrew says walking out, Jesse just stares blankly.
