Day 1; Basketball
I walked into school, first day, new school, new start. A lot of people at my old school thought I was a guy. My voice is the only way people knew my gender. Well, and my name.. anyway, back to the point. I looked around, and walked to home room. I could tell around five female Kalons looked at me. The others looked up slowly, and boredly. Eighth grade, can’t wait. I listened to the announcements, sketching little math problems out on a paper. I heard the word basketball, and looked up, “girls basketball tryouts will be held today at lunch.” The speaker said, and I planned to try out. I went to all my classes, got confused a few times, but I found my way. The time of lunch came, and I went to the field. The coach came up to me and said “sorry, the boys basketball tryouts are tomorrow.”
“Ma’am, my name is Margery, I am a girl.”
“O-oh.. well, over here then,”
All the girls looked at me, confused , I just grabbed a basketball and started playing myself. I one-shotted every time, I could see the teachers talking, I heard one say “we could pass her as a guy onto the boys team,” another said..
“no, the girls could use her,”
“We will decide later”
I threw the basketball angrily. I hated being a pawn, little did I know I accidentally hit someone in the head. I heard
“Agh!” And ran over
“Oh jeez I’m so sorry!” I said quickly, the Kalon I had hit had the prettiest eyes I had ever seen.
“It’s okay dude, hopefully you don’t throw like that tomorrow though, hah, right? I saw you practicing, wanna play?”
“Oh sure, I’m maggie by the way,”
“Isn’t that a girl’s name?”
“What scared a girl is going to beat you in basketball?” I laughed. We played until the end of lunch, just so happens we had next class together. He pretty much became my first friend.
Day 2; Teams.
Turns out I was on the guys team now. They gave me an excuse for p.e to meet my teammates and stuff like that. It was the most awkward thing, meeting them outside the boys locker room, the Kalon I met yesterday was there, too. He looked confused, I shot him a look that said, ‘later.’ After we got acquainted, we started playing, and after that, time to hit the showers.. oh gosh. “Hey, aren’t you coming?” Another Kalon said
“Nah I’m good, man I’ll see you later.”
That was the most terrifying experience in my life.
Few days later;
One of the Kalons on my team’s girlfriend told him I was a female, he told the whole team. I knew about this, and now I just felt it was time to stop being pawned. I came out with the ball and they were all looking at me, I said three words “shirts or skins.” I bounced the ball and shot it into the hoop. “I’ll do skins.”
I could tell that surprised the whole team. I took off my P.e shirt and the white sports bra was exposed, I’m done being a pawn, how ‘bout that?
I could have sworn the Kalon I had hit was blushing. My team won that day, and I think they have gained respect for me since.
