CHAPTER 12: GETTING CLOSER

That morning, all players are training as usual. But there is one thing that unusual; all of them need to practice with Ayewb in the team which annoyed all of them.

"Can you do that better?"

"Seriously, guys. Please train properly or we'll lose to Japan"

"I know that I deserved that captain armband, Pulisic. You're suck"

Can't stand with this anymore, Aaron and Sargent hit Ayewb with a double superkick.

"Shouldn't you stop them?" asked Carli.

"Well, Alex didn't stop Aaron. Why must I stop them?" asked Pulisic in returned.

"You're the captain, Chris" said Rose.

"Well, I kinda enjoy this though" replied Pulisic.

"I guess all of you hate Ayewb so much that anything is legal if it is used against him" said Mal. Pulisic just chuckled.

Later on;

Aaron and Sargent were summoned to Berhalter's room after finished their lunch.

"Do you both know what had you both done just now?" asked Berhalter.

"What do you mean, Coach? If it is about we're fighting on who should take the penalty kick, we're already decide about it" replied Sargent.

"That's true. Don't worry about it" said Aaron then. Berhalter sighed.

"Look, boys. I know that all of you hate Dino. But he's still your teammate. You need to treat him nicely like you treated others" said Berhalter.

"Well, if he starts to respect others and stop being bossy, we will" replied Aaron.

"But I don't think that he will ever do so" said Sargent.

"Look, boys. I know that none of you like him. But you know that his uncles now is the main sponsor of the national team. So, you can't just beat him like that" said Berhalter.

"He better do so first. Like I said, Coach. If he stops annoy us, we will treat him better" replied Aaron.

"That's true. And we don't care who is his uncles. If he's here to ruin everything, we need to do anything we can to stop him" said Sargent.

"And if he wants to talk about how much money his uncles gave to the federation so that he can be part of the team, then I don't see any reason for me to be here anymore" said Aaron then. Berhalter shook his head. After a while, both strikers left.

Later on;

"Can you believe it? We're the one that get blamed while it's that asshole's fault things become chaotic" said Sargent as he and Aaron walked to the dining hall.

"That's true. Money do talk after all" replied Aaron.

"No wonder Wes Mewis already punched him in his first training with The Red Devils" said Sargent.

"The Mewis Sisters' little brother, huh" said Aaron.

"Wait, what? You're kidding right?" asked Sargent.

"No, I'm not. It's quite obvious actually just by his surname" replied Aaron.

"I see. But why did he chose Australia though?" said Sargent.

"Well, maybe he wants to expand the legacy of Mewis in soccer" replied Aaron as they entered the dining hall. (Check on Legacy of Mewis to read about Wes Mewis)

Later on;

Aaron is walking to his room after lunch when he saw Ayewb is disturbing Adriana.

"You do have guts to show up here, Geeky. This place is for cool person like me, not a nerd like you" said Ayewb.

"Leave me alone, Ayewb. I never disturb you" replied Adriana.

"A nerd appeared right in front of me is already disturbing me, Geeky. Maybe I should break your glasses again like the old time" said Ayewb. He then tried to take Adriana's glasses before Aaron grabbed his arm and twisted it.

"Maybe you should think again before I break your arm, Ayewb. What do you think about that?" asked Aaron furiously.

"Let me go, Morgan. It's hurt" plead Ayewb.

"You want me to let you go to the hospital? Sure" said Aaron.

"Aaron, please stop" said Adriana.

"Only because you said so, Doc" replied Aaron before let Ayewb's hand go but he then kicked Ayewb straight on the ribs.

"Why did you back that nerd so much?" asked Ayewb while still in pain.

"Because she's my friend, something that you never understand. Now why don't you leave her alone before I'll send your corpse to Millie? I don't care how much money did your uncle give to the federation so that you can get the national call" warned Aaron.

"You'll pay for this!" said Ayewb before quickly run away.

"What a piece of shit. You good, Doc?" asked Aaron.

"I am. Thanks for helping me just now" replied Adriana.

"Don't worry about that. We're friends after all" said Aaron. Adriana nodded.

"By the way, do you have anything planned later on?" asked Adriana.

"Not really. Why?" asked Aaron in returned.

"Well, there's a good buskers around here. Want to check it out with me?" asked Adriana.

"Well, why not? I love to" replied Aaron.

"Okay, then. See you at the lobby in 2 hours" said Adriana.

"Okay, Doc" replied Aaron. Adriana just smirked before walked away.

"Your uncle just scored a date, baby girl" said Alex that came out of nowhere while holding Charlie.

"Sis! Don't scare me like that" said Aaron. Alex giggled.

"So, is she the one?" asked Alex.

"Well, sis. It's still too early to say that" replied Aaron.

"I see. But as long you're happy, I'm fine with that" said Alex.

"Thanks, sis" replied Aaron before took Charlie from Alex.

"Are you kidnapping my daughter? You need to bring her with you then" said Alex.

"No. I just want to hold my cute niece here for a while" replied Aaron before pecked a kiss on Charlie's cheek. Charlie just giggled.

"For a bad boy, you sure have a lot of tender spot" said Alex. Aaron just chuckled. After a while, Aaron handed over Charlie back to Alex before walked away.

Later on;

Aaron and Adriana walked around the city where they ended up at a spot where a group of buskers are performing. When they arrived, the buskers are playing Master of Puppets.

"Metal song in acoustic version, huh. That's interesting" said Aaron.

"I saw the video when you performed this song with Metallica. It's good" replied Adriana.

"Well, I have my sifu to thank for that" said Aaron.

"Don't you ever think to change your career from an athlete into a musician?" asked Adriana.

"I do. But I don't have guts to tell Alex that time" replied Aaron.

"You afraid of her?" asked Adriana.

"Of course not. It just that I have a lot of respect for her. But of course, she's so scary when she angry" replied Aaron. Adriana giggled.

"Both of you are always that close, huh" said Adriana.

"Well, yeah. Maybe because we have the same interest and now we're both football players" replied Aaron.

"I see. So, you're really can't say soccer anymore, huh" said Adriana. Aaron chuckled.

"Sorry. I talked to British a lot make me forgot about that word" replied Aaron.

"I'm kinda amazed that you didn't forget about me" said Adriana.

"Well, how can I forgot about you? You're the smartest girl in our class after all" replied Aaron.

"Also the cutest" said inner Aaron.

"Really? I thought a star athlete like you won't bother to remember me" said Adriana.

"I never saw myself as a star. Yeah, I performed very well but only because I have great teammates. Except for that ultimate jerk of course" replied Aaron. Adriana giggled.

"Just you to know, Melissa, Diana and Ginerva really want to meet you. Especially Melissa of course. She said that she owe you an apology" said Adriana.

"Really? I love to meet them too one day. And tell Melissa this; don't worry about that apology. I didn't take it seriously though" replied Aaron.

"Ah, yes. She told me about it. Never thought a kind athlete like you need to face that kind of treat" said Adriana. Aaron just chuckled. After the performance was ended, they walked back to the hotel.
