The seconds on the clock ticked down. Staring intently at the scoreboard, face pinched in concentration, Terrence rubbed a hand across his sweaty forehead. The clouds parted, making room for the sun and as his gaze panned the sold-out crowd he spotted Mr. Morrow. That had to mean Kyra was nearby. And she was. Seeing her striking two noisemakers, decked out in a cute red Hollington Lions shirt and fitted jeans, brought back memories of all those times he’d looked into the stands and saw Kyra cheering him on.

A broad grin fell across his lips as he studied her. The chemistry between them had never died; it was as clear as the morning sky and Terrence wanted her more than ever before. A slim Mexican guy took the seat beside Kyra, and his smile faded. Watching her talk to the handsome stranger was enough to make Terrence lose his lunch. If Coach Mayo hadn’t gripped his arm and pointed him toward the field, he would have stormed over and told Ricco Suave to take a hike.

Terrence turned just in time to see the football fall to the ground. One of the Hollington players scooped up the ball, broke tackle and sprinted down the field at breakneck speed. Vigorously pumping his fist, Terrence shot up off the bench. Cupping his hands over his mouth, he ran along the sidelines, yelling, “Go all the way, Earl. All the way, big guy!”

The freshman sailed into the end zone, and the fans went wild. When the referee blew his whistle, signaling a touchdown, Terrence jumped into the air, applauding the home team. Ten, nine, eight, he recited. The play clock ran down to zero and the entire Hollington team flooded the field. The Lions had beaten the defending state champions, and the energy in the stadium was exhilarating.
