Maybe it was time to have a stretch.
She put her parchment and textbook to the side, and stood to have a long stretch. The time that goes from the tips of your fingers all the way to your toes. And somehow feels extra nice. It was as she did so, she heard her name being called. First she saw JD (who didn't exactly look cheery) and then Ellie (who appeared the complete opposite). She guessed the rosters had been released, and they'd both just come from the pitch. Thinking about the team she'd picked was a welcome distraction.
"Hi guys," she said, leaning over the back of the armchair and grinning. "What's up?" She winked at Ellie, wondering quite what JD was thinking.
Ellie beamed at Nia. She was brilliant! JD had made it!

Looking up as Nia walked over, "Nia! I didn't say I was still going to tryout. I don't think I'm ready!" Looking oddly amused, he looks at her seriously, "I think you made a mistake...maybe you meant to put Keltan on there instead." He adds glancing over at Kel.
"I've thought it over, and maybe...another term of just practice will help..." sadly he keeps his eyes diverted from her, so she couldn't read the truth in them.
Still holding to JD, her expression changed. What? Noo.. he couldn't have quit! He was on the roster.

He hadn't done nothing wrong...I mean she was the one to come up to him squeezing him excitedly...right?
Following her over to the window, he turns to face her quizzically.
Then he pushed her away. She was quite surprised that words were, for once, not gushing from her mouth. What was all this about. And now that girl was taking him away? But they needed to talk! He needed to explain! Nia needed to tell him that it was alright! Ahh! This is
not going as she thought. She thought that he had obviously told Nia that he changed his mind about quitting, and she put him on the roster. Now he was saying that he did quit? Noo.... he couldn't. Didn't she tell him that already? He was too excellent to quit, anyway. She just watched him, confused, as he walked away. Boo.
