Ocean – Kicked Off The Team

One by one we all got out of the car and ran toward the building. I happened to look up and see that Ryan had grabbed onto Ben's hand and was holding it tightly in his. They were literally holding hands as they ran in through the front door of the school. It was clear to see that Ryan didn't want to hide their relationship from anyone at all. I was happy to see that, but I didn't know if I was brave enough to do that at school.

The four of us ran through the quiet and empty halls all the way to the locker room, which was also quiet and empty. Silently, we got ready for practice as quickly as we could. It truly didn't take any of us all that long, but we were all still late for the official start of practice. I felt so embarrassed as we walked out of the locker room and into the one where the pool was.
