Cruz POV

"i can't believe your brother got into a fight with Jason Smith" Hudson my good friend and team mate from the football field laughs at we sat down at the table for lunch.

"it was crazy he held his own pretty well considered the size difference" Tyson called out.

"ya well his face wouldn't say other wise. Jason got him good" Canyon was right. his lip was busted pretty bad.

"ya i saw his lip it looked pretty banged up" Hudson agreed.

"well Jason a jerk and i hope he gets expelled" i voiced.

"well i think the most they will do is suspend him. he's a star athlete and his dad is heavily invested into this school. so he's not going to be expelled." CJ did make fair points.

"so what have you guys decided to do for your party. i mean it's the big sixteen so you have to do something crazy." Gale another of our friends from the football team asked, and honestly now that i think about we haven't really talked about it.

"honestly we haven't really talked about much" Canyon voiced my thoughts.

"well expect that in the morning we are each going for our license" i voiced but that's truly as far as we have gotten.

"you think your going to get a car for your birthday?" Gale asked.

"mhm not sure it's hard to tell" which it really was, i couldn't read dads expressions when we asked.

"so what kind of cars do you guys want" Hudson questioned.

"i want a dodge challenger" i thought they looked awesome.

"i don't want a car i want a truck, a dodge ram fifteen hundred all black" Canyon listed.

"i like the land rovers" CJ says.

"damn talk about expensive cars" Hudson voiced.

"says the one that drives to school in a range rover" i rolled my eyes.

"okay true, but i am an only child. so my parents spoil me. but there are three of you all wanting a different car at the same time, that's crazy and hella expensive" Hudson did make a valid point.

"well like i said it's all still up in the air." i reminded him.

"Cruz did you forgot again" i heard Denver from behind me.

Denver is another one of my friends who's in a bunch of my non athletic stuff. i looked at my apple watch and groaned.

"i am coming" i grabbed my bag.

"what club meeting do you have now mr smarty pants" Tyson joked as i stood up.

"debate club" i tell them as i followed Denver.

i am honestly kind of glad that the guys don't give me crap about my academics. because they are super important to me, and i would quite football in a second if didn't think i could handle both my sports stuff and academics.

even though i like football, i just don't see myself playing outside of high school. where as Canyon he's great at football, and had a serious chance of getting a scholarship in it. and CJ he's good to but doses not have the passion behind it like Canyon.

"so you excited  for the big debate contest next month" Denver questioned as we walks into the classroom the meeting being held at.

"ya i am actually" i tell him.

"Hey Cruz" i heard a voice call my name.

i turned around and saw Sam, Sam was my dads best friends daughter. she's Coltons age well a couple months younger.

"oh hey Sam." i smiled.

"i totally forgot that you where in debate club" she announced.

"ya it's hard to keep track of the clubs these days." i was honest.

"well it's not a bad thing to be involved in school activities." she did make a fair point.

"ya i like to think so." i said then went and took my seat.

"ya that's why i joined cheer this year, to be more involved." she claims then sat down beside me opposite of Denver.

"oh that's cool, well guess i will see you on the field then" i smiled.

"i guess so" she was smiling.

The debate club meeting was finally over, so now i had to go to class.

"Dude you know Sam was flirting with you that whole practice right" Denver chuckled as we stared our way to our lockers before class.

"what no way" he was lying.

"your blind man, she joined cheerleading. she's in debate club, and she was playing with the ends of of her hair the whole time she was talking to you, are you really that blind" he explained.

"there's no way, i mean your imaging it all" i scoffed.

"your just in denial" He was smirking.

"even if she dose that weird, she's my dads best friends daughter. she's practically family" i tell him.

"well at least it's not inset, your not blood related." Denver wiggled his eyebrows.

"your terrible, besides there is no time in my life for a girlfriend" i opened my locker.

"you have a girlfriend." Canyon pulled my locker so he could see my face.

i rolled my eyes this guy is everywhere. "no i don't have a girlfriend"

"but he will" Denver pipped up and i wish he wouldn't have.

"ohh do tell" Canyon was so nosy.

"it's Sam" Denver tells him.

"Like Sam Smith" Canyons eyes where wide.

"mhm she joined Cheer and debate team, and the whole practice she was twirling her hair. this idiot is as blind as a bat." Denver just kept taking.

"oh damn, she's got it bad". Canyon was grinning.

"i have to get to class" i closed my locker and then turned to head to class.

"it's funny how you think you can walk away from me, and think the conversation is actually over." Canyon was right at my side.

"well it is there is nothing to talk about." i huffed.

"dang i need to step up my game, what the heck are you and Colton doing that i am not." Canyon was shaking his head.

"go to class before your late." i was hoping he would get the hint.

"we have this class together" he reminded me and dang it that didn't tick me off.

"of course we do" it was just my luck.

"okay seriously the last question i ask about her i promise" he says.

"fine what" i just wanted this to be over.

"are you going to ask her out?" was his question.

"why do you like her or something?" i raised my eye brow.

"no i don't, i just want to know what's going on in my dear brothers life" he slung his arm over my shoulder.

"well no i am not, i don't have time for a girlfriend right now" which was true, i had to focus on my school work.

Hope all you guys are staying safe, and wish you all the best in the new year to come. honestly i am so sick of this pandemic. but any ways love you all and hope 2021 bring you guys a bit more luck and bring the world back to normal.
and i am curious what are some of the traditions that you guys usually do this time of year?
