SIGH, SIGH, Oh my oh my. It wouldn't have been such a problem if Cassie had any skill with hand-eye coordination, but she didn't. She could play volleyball just find, but when it came to sports like tennis and baseball she was utterly lost. Basketball was absolutely the worst, balls were soaring through the air, bouncing around, not a place for someone as petite and terrified as Cassie was.
She was not naturally a shy person, very outgoing actually, but the repeated "You don't belong on the court" comments she was recieving from her teammates was not very encouraging, not even in the least bit. She scrambled this way and that, trying to avoid the balls that bounced off the rim, and the ones that came pelting down from the net shot by those why had actual talent in this type of athletic.
She was now yelling at herself for not skipping, but refused to remember that she was to much of a scholar type to even consider not going to class. The only reason she was even participating was because physcial education was a core subject, and grades were actually remotely improtant to her.
Cassie's light brown hair was hanging in a loose french braid down her back, her bangs were clipped back somewhat. She had very short turquoise shorts on, and a white tank top. Her pink converse scuffed the gymnasium floor as she shuffled to the side, screaming as a aimed but missed basket ball narrowly missed pelting her shoulder.
Some of the more jocky athletic type stared at her, of her gender that is, but the boys themselves found it some what hilarious of how ignorant she could be of sports. Her eyes widened in fear as they all picked up a ball and threw them at her at a coordinated time, and she tore of screaming in the other direction.
She lingered by the boundary lines, distancing herself,until an eager teammate had enough nerves to toss Cassie a ball. She caught it, but stared at it with wide eyes, her muscles going stiff. "RUN!" the team shouted while the opposing team laughed and pointed. She lurched into action, making her way to the net and drawing her elbows back for the shot.
Unfortunately, the ball did not go into the basket on her throw, though maybe on another from another person. Someone thought it would be funny to trip the unfortunate girl, and she was sent spilling to the glazed floor, the ball flying out of her hands as she knocked against the ground, making no noise as she fell. She didn't think to move as the game continued, only one thing was on her mind. "ow." |

 Zachary "Zach" Matthew Roberts [/size] Senior - Jock - Single[/size] --------------------------------[/size][/color] Zach entered the gym as he did he heard a cheer from some of the girls and felt the glare coming from the teacher as he shot him an unimpressed look, he grinned at the teacher and smirked as he watched the girls play basketball or atleast try and play basketball, he thought it was fairly hilarious how badly some girls tend to play but his thought was knocked as he saw the teacher appear infront of him "Hi" he said grinning at her, she did not seem too impressed with him, but it just him smile even more, he finally said "I'm injured, I missed my last couple games can't I just sit here and, you will never know I was here"
he crossed him arms across his chest and took a step back and lowered his grin and just looked at the teacher as she just starred and him before saying to him 'you should have been here when class began Roberts I don't care who you are no special treatment' he smiled again and replied "Better late than never - I would - just" he heard the loud noice of girls screaming and the teacher just gave him a dirty look and turned around to see to the girls.
Zach just stood there in the same position just admiring the view of the girls in their gym clothes and he thought it was funny to see, almost laughing he noticed a brunette girl had been tripped by someone, he walked over to her stood over her and left his arm out to help her up and offered her "Want a hand?" in a friendly and kind manor.[/blockquote] [/font][/size][/color] --------------------------------[/size][/color][/center]

LATELY, LATELY, The floor wasn't exactly the most comfortable place, especially because it was glossy and wooden. Well, it had the ability to take off someones skin and leave them red and sore for a couple of days. Fortunately, this collision did not draw any blood. However, her knees were good and scuffed and she pressed her palms to the ground, going to attempt to stand up when a shadow blocked out the lights from the top of the gym.
Cassie honestly wasn't expecting it to be someone unfamiliar, used to the normal jerks of the gym class, but it was even more surprising that he was extending an arm to help her instead of pointing and laughing like the others did, and for a minute she was sure he would rip his hand away before she could reach it screaming "YOINK" or something along those lines. She warily pressed her fingers against his, setting her palm to the curve of his own.
Her face was twisted as she atempted to lift herself up, nearly pulling him down to where she was, so she just gave up all together to the point where she was simply holding his hand, though she had made progress and was actually sitting up now. She blinked for a minute and then relaxed her arm, staring up at him with wide, childlike eyes."T-Thank you.." |

Zachary "Zach" Matthew Roberts [/size] Senior - Jock - Single[/size] --------------------------------[/size][/color] Zach felt the warmness of the girls hand as she was accepting his help, he felt her try and pull herself up, he felt that she was holding back some what and perhaps a little reluctant, he thought that she maybe thought he was going to push her back down or make fun of her, he smiled as she thanked him and in a friendly charming tone he joked "they're just jealous of you" he winked at her as he looked over to where the other girls seemed to be mocking her in some way or another.
he ignored them and turned back to face the girl, who he actually didn't know which wasn't something he was used to as he knew most of the girls in school and something else bothered him he definitely knew all of the pretty girls all accept this girl "Zach" he said smiling slightly
he relaxed his body and decided to introduce himself properly "I'm on the team - the basketball team but I'm out for a wrist injury if you want out of gym class just limp a little and moan about the pain, the teacher's no doctor" he suggested to her, she didn't seem like someone who liked gym class and if she did it would give him the chance to get to know her better even though he didn't know her name yet.

MAYBE, MAYBE, Now Cassie shifted uncomfortably, unsure if she should let go of his hand already are just wait there dumbfounded. She was never the most confident, and certainly was not going to pull any moves of some sort to set them out of place, that she even knew how. He seemed relaxed and such, and she seemed so tense, he would probably have an obvious dislike of her.
Her brown childs identity eyes widened and her cheeks turned a deep crimson, now entirely on edge. Were they jealous? She highly doubted it. She honestly knew their dislike of her, how much they loathed her and teased her for her clumsiness. She didn't need the lie to feel good, but the gesture all together was a sweet one, so she tilted her head nervously to peer at them.
She turned her attention back to him at his self introduction, and smield a polite smile up at him. She was not about to give out any information yet, it was too risky and a bit too soon for her to even be comfortable, even though this sort of thing happened a lot in movies and such. Cassie wasn't the gullible fairy tale love struck highschooler type, however, so this was a little different.
About to hoist herself up, Cassie let go of his hand instantly. His descending introduction was a bit too much, and her eyes widened with fear. No jock was a friend, that much was for sure. Now the trouble was responding without being rude, though she was not sure if she should even polite if he had plans of sabotaging her in some way or other. She bit her lip and looked away, curled into a ball on the floor. "O-Oh...just spit on me and get it over with, then." |

Zachary "Zach" Matthew Roberts [/size] Senior - Jock - Single[/size] --------------------------------[/size][/color] Zach watched her as she seemed some what uncomfortable and maybe even a little on edge, it wasn't very clear to him why or what'd done to make her feel like that, it's not like he thought he was Don Juan or anything but liked to make everyone feel comfortable and liked it when pretty girls were comfortable and confident with him, but he could sense her reluctance.
He then heard her say 'O-Oh...just spit on me and get it over with, then' and it kind of threw him off, did she really think he would be so nasty? then again the girls seemed to have a pretty nice hatred of her for some unknown reason to him he took a step back wards and sighed a little and wondered how best to make her feel more comfortable, he thought his presence was what made her feel uncomfortable, he raised his right hand with the bandage still on his wrist and rubbing his hand against his chin for second as he thought about it.
He released his hand and he gave her a smile and said to her "Just wanted to help you out, seemed like you could do with it" he smiled at her still just trying to be friendly, he didn't think much to bitchy mean girls who made it their purpose to destroy other girls for no reason other than jealousy he thought it was just a weakness and big flaw but said to her "I'm just going to go over there you can join me if you want or not" whilst pointing to a bench away from the court.
