~(Y/n)'s POV~

When I come to, I'm in the nurses office.

"Ah, my head is killing me." I groan

"Oh, you're finally awake." I hear a female voice say. I look over and see the nurse. She has short brown hair, down to her shoulders, and wears glasses.

"I'm awake, sure, but I feel like someone just hit my head with a hammer." I say

"Not surprised. Your head is split open." She tells me

"I think I was able to tell that after seeing blood stream down my face." I say

"If you don't mind me asking, what happened?" She asks me

'I can't tell her I got in a fight...' I thought to myself "I tripped and hit my head on the corner of the sidewalk."

"Mhm, sure, we'll go with that." She says

"If you don't mind me asking, who brought me here?" I ask "I'm wondering, because the last thing I remember is three girls fighting over who's going to take me here."

"A red haired girl with blue eyes." She tells me

"Janette took me, huh?" I ask

"Oh, and another one. She had long blonde hair, and mismatched eyes." She says, and walks out.

'Mismatched eyes...it couldn't be Jasmine, she has pink hair...' I thought to myself

"By the way," The nurse starts, "It's lunch, so you better get going."

"Oh, okay, thanks." I say, and walk out, a little dizzy at first, then start walking steadily.

~Time Skip~

Once I finally get to the lunch room, I see Jasmine, Kristen, Janette, Kaitlyn, and a new girl waiting for me.

"Hey guys..." I say

"(Y/n)!" All but the new blonde girl says.

"You big idiot. You had me worried sick." Jasmine says, with tears in her eyes.

"I'm sorry..." I say, sitting down "Hey Janette, thanks for bringing me to the nurses."

"It's no problem (Y/n)." Janette says, looking away, trying to hide her blush.

"And you must be the other one who brought me to the nurses." I say to the blonde girl.

"How'd you know?" The girl asks

"The nurse told me that Janette brought me along with another girl. Said she had mismatched eyes, and blonde hair." I say "Thanks, for helping me."

"It's no problem, I saw her struggling all by herself, so I decided to help her out." She explains

"Well, you obviously know my name, but what's yours?" I ask

"Wait, you don't know what her name is? The most popular girl in the school?" Kristen asks

"It's my second day, and everything is still hazy." I say

"It's Kelly." She says

"Well Kelly, thanks." I say

"(Y/n), I bought you your food." Kaitlyn says

"Oh, thanks. Here." I say, holding out money to pay her back.

"N-no it's fine! Really!" Kaitlyn says

"Kaitlyn, Kaitlyn, Kaitlyn. Here's a little lesson about (Y/n), once his mind is made up, he won't take no for an answer." Jasmine tells her

"She's right, we could do this all day, or you could just take the money." I say, holding it out.

"F-fine..." Kaitlyn says, taking the money.

"Now, was that so ha-" I get interrupted by a voice behind me.

"Hey look guys, it's the hero!" One of the guys from yesterday says.

"Great..." I say, turning around "Can I help you?"

"Ohhh! What happened to your head, did the little hero get a boo-boo?" He asks, making his friends laugh

"Awww! Did the big bad wolf get hurt by the hero?" I ask, seeing a Band-Aid on his head. "Since you seem to be so important, how about I call the ambulance here for you."

"Why you...!" He yells, winding up to punch me, but someone steps in front him.

"So, you're the one who did this to him?" Kelly asks

"So what if I did, what are you, his girlfriend?" He asks

"Hey, isn't that Kelly?" One of them asks

"Wait, you, the most popular girl in school, is dating the superhero?" He asks

"So what if I am?"Kelly asks, then turns towards me. "Why do these guys hate you?"

"They were telling Kaitlyn that if she gets naked, she could get friends." I explain "So I stepped in, and stopped them. The punched me a few times in the head, and I head-butted the big one, knocking him out."

"Ohhh. So that's why they're calling you a hero." She says

"Hey!" The one I knocked out yells "Stop ignoring us! We were talking, and there is no way you two are dating."

"Why not?" Kelly asks

"Why would the most popular girl in school be dating the new kid?" He asks "So there is no way you two are dating."

"Oh really? If we aren't dating, would I do this?" Kelly asks, then bends down and kisses me. Jasmine, Kaitlyn, Kristen, and Janette all looked like they were about to kill her.

"You bitch!" He raised his fist, but another girl walked in front of him.

"HOW DARE THY RAISE A HAND TO SUCH A FAIR MAIDEN!" The girl, who looked like the walking definition of an Otaku said. She had long black hair, and green eyes. She was wearing armor for some reason.

"Is she...carrying a sword?" I ask "What school did I transfer to..."

"Who the hell..." The guy says

"You dare insult the almighty Knight of this school?!" She yells "Thy shall pay the ultimate price!" She pulls out her sword, showing off that it's just foam.

"Okay, lets put the fake sword away, and just take a deep breath." I say, putting my hand on the sword. "Now, to deal with you three."

"What's a guy with a head injury gonna do?" He asks, flicking me head. "You gonna have your girlfriend protect you again?"

"I'm usually a calm person, but you just pissed me off. Congrats!" I say

"So, what are you gonna do about it?" He asks

"Hey Otaku, can I see your sword." I ask

"Of course, Sir (Y/n)" She takes out her sword, kneels, and hold it flat in both hands.

"Okaaaayyyy..." I say, taking the sword, then start thwacking him over and over. "Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad." Eventually he runs away.

"Sir (Y/n)! That was amazing!" The Otaku says

"You realize all I did was hit him over and over again with this sword right?" I ask

"It was still amazing!" She yells

"Alright, listen..." I start, realizing I still don't know her name.

"Natalie." She says

"Well, Natalie, you do know that I'm not an actual Knight. right?" I ask

"You are to me, Sir (Y/n)!" She says

"Drop the Sir, it's (Y/n). I'm not a master." I say

"No can do Sir (Y/n)!" She says

I quickly realized the only way to get her to listen to me was to play along, at least for now. "As your superior, I order you to just call me (Y/n)!"

She looks up at me, her eyes sparkling, getting a huge smile on her face. "Yes, (Y/n)!"

"Wow, didn't think that was gonna work." I say

After everything settles down, we sit back down, now Natalie sitting with us.

"So, that happened..." I say

"You know what else happened, Kelly KISSED you!" Jasmine says, clearly pissed off.

"Yea, she did. It was justified though." I say

"HOW?!" Kristen yells

"To put the idiot in his place." I say

"Where does the her kissing you come in to play here?!" Kaitlyn yells, then realizes she just yelled, and looked down.

"Easy, it's because she wanted to prove him wrong, and piss him off for assuming." I explain

"I still don't understand." Janette says

"After she heard what they did, she wanted to piss him off as much as possible, so when he said we weren't dating, she wanted to prove him wrong, no matter the lengths, so she kissed me." I explained, then turned to Kelly "Sound about right?"

"Y-yea..." She says shocked, then turns away and mumbles something "But there were other reasons too..."

"What was that?" I ask

"Nothing." she says, turning back to us.

"Okaaayyy..." I say "This is a weird group of people I've met."

"Oh, (Y/n)!" Jasmine says "There's a beach nearby! We should go to it tomorrow! Today is Friday!"

"Hm? Oh yea, sure." I say

The bell finally rung, and we all went to our next class.

~Time Skip~

I'm walking home with everyone, and we walk past football tryouts.

"I didn't know we had a football team." I say

"Yea, why, you play?" Kelly asks

"A little." I say "I was on my last schools team."

"Any good?" Janette asks

"Kinda." I say

"Kinda?! You were amazing!" Jasmine says "You were the best Quarterback in the state!"

"I didn't want anyone to know that..." I say

"You should go try out." Kaitlyn suggests

"UGHHHHH! DO I HAVE TOOOO?!" I groan

They all look at each other, then back at me. "YES!"

They all push me towards the field, while I don't cooperate, and not step at all. "UGHHHHHH!"

A cheerleader turns towards us, looking at us with a confused face. She has light brown hair, tied into pig tails, and has aqua eyes. "Can I help you?"

"NO!" I yell, but all of them cover my mouth.

"This fair Knight would like to try out for the team." Natalie says

"The cheerleading team...?" The girl asks

"N-no...what?" I ask

"The football team." Jasmine says

"Ohhhhh...yea, that would make more sense." She says "Well, I'm Emma. Captain of the cheer team."

"I'm (Y/n), and these a-" She cuts me off

"(Y/n)! (Y/n) (L/n)?!" Emma yells

"Uhhh...yea." I say "How did you...?"

"All the cheerleaders know who you are! You're the best Quarterback in the state!" She yells

"Can we...just get this over with...?" I ask

"Oh, right!" She turns to everyone on the field "Alright everyone! Make room for (Y/n) (L/n)!"

Some people just stare at her like she's crazy, while the cheerleaders were just screaming.

"He's the best Quarterback in the state!" Emma yells again

"Ohhhh!" The team says

"That's not possible, because I'M the best in the state!" I hear a familiar voice say

"Why me?" I ask

"Wait...YOU!" The guy from earlier yells

"Yea, yea, ME!" I say

"YOU think you're the best in the state?" He asks

"Well, the state news did report about it." I say

"S-so?! That doesn't matter!" He yells

"Dude...what did you smoke?" I ask

"Yea, it is a pretty big deal." Emma says

"Well, I challenge you to a Quarterback-off!" He yells

"UUUUGGGGGHHHHH! WHYYYYYYY?!" I yell "FIIIIINE!"

"Someone sounds nervous!" He yells

"No, I'm just being forced to tryout. If it were my choice, I wouldn't be here, because I was basically a damn celebrity at the last school." I explain "But you wouldn't understand that, you've probably only made the two friends that are with you all the damn time, since you smell like a garbage disposal just exploded."

"Everyone starts laughing, pissing him off anymore.

"Alright," Emma says, wiping a tear from her eye, and finishes laughing "Lets get this started, the challenger goes first."

When he gets behind the team, he overthrows one, underthrows one, and throws one way to far to the left.

"Didn't you say you were the best in the state?" I ask "That just look like a caveman who learned how to throw a rock."

"Lets see you do better!" He yells at me

When I get behind the team, I take out my phone and call hike. They pass me the ball, and I throw all of them perfectly without taking my eyes off my phone. When they had me run it, I still looked at my phone, and avoided every one of the defenders, running into the end zone. Then I send the text that I was typing.

"Oh I got a text." Jasmine says, pulling out her phone. She laughs, and shows it to the guy. "It's for you!"

The message read "Show the Horn Dog this message. You are a sad excuse for an athlete. I did everything you couldn't, while on my phone. You have embarrassed the name of The Best In The State, and should feel ashamed. P.S. You smell like a trash compactor."

"You bastard!" He charges at me, but I move out of the was, causing him to run into the pole.

"Now that...it was just sad." I say, starting to walk away. When I do, I see a girl with long brown hair tied into a ponytail, and brown eyes, recording the whole thing. So I did the only logical thing a guy on camera would do. I waved and smiled, then I took out my phone and started recording. 'Yea, how's it feel to be recorded?' I thought. When the girl noticed, she put her phone away, and walked off the bleachers.

"Who did you just wave to (Y/n)?" Janette asked

"Some brown haired girl was recording, so I waved to the camera, then recorded her recording me. Aaaaaaand, delete." I say, deleting the video.

"Well (Y/n), looks like you made the team!" Emma said

"Yaaaaaay..." I cheer sarcastically.

"I'll make sure to make a chant up, just for you!" She says, smiling so big, it forced her eyes closed.

"Thanks? I honestly don't know how to respond to that." I say

"Hey (Y/n), don't forget to bring a volleyball for the beach tomorrow!" Jasmine says

"Yea, yea. I won't." I say. Emma joins us now, smiling her giant smile, skipping along.

~Skylar's POV~

"That boy...why did he record me?" I ask myself, as I walk back into my house. "The beach, huh?"
