Avery’s POV

Behind me, I could feel the heat radiating from Jax’s body, his breath hitched as he pressed his back against the window frame. The beam of Miller’s flashlight swept across the desk and illuminated the dust motes dancing in the air like tiny insects.

My hand was clamped over my mouth with my heart hammering violently. It was so loud that I thought the guard would hear it. The light moved to the bookshelf and lingered for a second on the gap where the books had been shifted.

    Avery's POV"What?" I couldn't control the volume of my voice as Dylan disclosed the information.All the other players turned to us and Dylan's eyes widened in panic."What's going on there?" John asked with a small frown grazing his face.Dylan glared at me before turning to the other players. "There's nothing going on here, Captain.""We don't get our official jersey?" I asked to cut Dylan off.Dylan tried to cover my mouth, but it was difficult to reach me as I had veered away from his reach.John's frown deepened as he crossed his arms on his chest."Yes," John replied. "The school only gives us a certain amount of budget, so we can't give second-string players their own jersey. It has been like this since the club has been established.""Aren't we a part of the team too?" I asked as it seemed unfair how we were being treated differently."You are," John sighed while massaging the bridge of his nose. "But we are not in any league or competition at the moment, so the school decide

    Avery's POVI sat by the bench, dejected, while the other second-string players cheered for John who had just landed a shot and smoothly skated back to their side on the rink.I couldn't believe I was still doing the same old thing. I shouldn't be watching the players from the sideline as they played to their hearts' extent.Even though my mood wasn't great, I still took the time to observe John's playing style. I had never seen him play before and I was pleasantly surprised. The captain definitely deserved his title since he was the best player among everyone on the rink.Sharon, too, wasn't bad at all. However, it seemed like she wouldn't be entirely comfortable playing on the rink if John wasn't the one playing beside her. As far as I knew, Sharon was also a third-year student like John, so she must have become stuck to him.Kate and King were doing relatively well even though it was their first time training with the old players. King was undoubtedly better than Kate but I could a

    Avery's POV I didn't want to see Dr. Monroe after class. Seeing his scary face would not only ruin my day, it would also mean I would be late to my very first Hockey practice.I was already late to the tryouts, so I definitely didn't want to repeat history.I looked around and observed my classmates' faces. Then, I stared right back into Dr. Monroe's eyes. Thankfully, he didn't notice that I was glaring at him.If I accepted my score, then it would confirm that I, actually, cheated on the assignment.If I chose the other option, then I was sure I was going to be late to my first Hockey training.However, in those two options, I knew I was going to be doubted either way.So, I shrugged and sat back down in my seat to show that I had accepted my score of zero. My classmates looked at me with judging expressions even though most of them copied other people's homework.Dr. Monroe smirked as he walked over to the board. Then, he shook his head while muttering to himself, "That's what I th

    Avery's POV Dr. Monroe entered the classroom with a face that couldn't be painted. He always looked like a sheep that had been milked a couple more times than the ordinary, but today, he appeared even more dehydrated.It seemed like I wasn't the only one who noticed the shift in his attitude. Everyone in the class became quiet as soon as he entered the classroom.The old man placed down his belongings on the table in a way calmer than we had anticipated. The action made all of us even more nervous as we all seemed to be wondering what had gotten into the old man's head."First, let us deal with the answers to your assignment," he said and turned around to write on the board.One brave soul raised her hand and asked a question."Aren't you going to give us back our papers, sir?"Dr. Monroe turned around with a subtle glare in his eyes. The girl swiftly zipped her mouth shut and stopped prying further.Dr. Monroe wrote down the answers on the board and rapidly discussed the rationale b

    Avery's POVI looked down at the extra shoes I planned on bringing to school. I couldn't help but sigh when I felt the hardened glue on its soles. It was ruined on the day of her tryouts and I hadn't gotten around to replace them yet.The only other pair of shoes I had was made out of canvas. It was in better condition but it didn't really befit me.I stood from my bed and went to Grandma Jo to ask her to buy me a new pair of shoes.However, as I got to the kitchen, I saw Grandma Jo sniffing while counting the money she earned yesterday. Her eyes were welled up with tears while a stack of money danced in her hands. She wiped her eyes with her hands but it only made her tear up even more.I pursed my lips as soon as I saw this. Grandma Jo must not have made enough money yesterday."I can't ask for anything now. I had to contact my parents but they are still angry at me," I whispered and went back to my room to quickly pack the worn-out rubber shoes. I also packed the jersey that Bee ha

    Chapter 46Avery's POVI quickly finished my lunch with my cheeks puffed up with food. Few minutes later, I was standing with Bee in front of the school's bulletin board.To the other students, it seemed like I was a squirrel that that had stored nuts inside its cheeks and they kept staring at me weirdly. In fact, I might even consider myself pretty unattractive.However, for the people who watched me as I passed them, it only added to my infamous aura. I looked like I had just devoured one of my enemies whole!I couldn't help but crack my knuckles out of nervousness. I knew I wasn't able to do my best during the tryouts but I definitely wasn't the worst player in the bunch.Moreover, when Bee stated that I had been chosen, hope had bloomed inside my heart. On my way there, I saw King, who wore a wide smile on his face. It didn't take a genius to know that he made it into the Hockey team. Out of everyone who tried out, he was definitely the player with the most shots, rebounds and as
