It had become a bit sort of obvious as Wednesday went on that Fliss was not looking forward to the practice at all.

“Don’t worry, we’ll all be there together,” we’d tried to reassure her, but it didn’t seem to work. Every time we looked at her she seemed to be getting greener and greener.

“Come on Fliss,” I told her when the home-time bell finally went. “It’s not as bad as all that. The boys will be fine, you’ll see. And Mr Pownall’s great.”

“I… I don’t care. I… I… I’m not going!” she stammered.

“Oh yes you are, my girl!” I shouted.

“Am not!”

“Come on Fliss,” reasoned Rosie. “I’m worse than you and I’m going. If I hate it, well, I won’t be going again.” She flashed me a look. “But we won’t know until we get there, will we?”

That sort of calmed Fliss down.

“OK, but if anyone laughs….”

“… you’re out of there,” the rest of us finished for her. “Yes, we know!”

When we got to the changing room I must admit that I was really excited. I couldn’t wait to be playing football again, but I tried not to look too eager in front of the others.

“I hope Ryan Scott’s not going to be a pain,” Frankie whispered to me as we made our way into the gym. “Because Fliss means it, you know? One peep out of him and we won’t see her for dust.”

“He’ll be fine!” I said confidently.

Why did I open my big mouth? As soon as we got into the gym, I kind of sensed that we’d made a big mistake. The boys were already warming up, but they stopped as soon as they saw us come in. One minute there was silence, the next the gym was echoing with the sound of loud guffawing.

“I know McKenzie can play a bit, but the rest of you girls…?” Ryan Scott was shrieking with laughter. “Do me a favour! You’re having a laugh, aren’t you?”

“Ignore them Fliss,” I hissed. “Fliss?”

I looked round, but Fliss was nowhere to be seen. She’d done a disappearing act before we’d even started!
