Awww wish I had a boyfriend like Jack, who would wake me up in the morning with lovely breakfast :wub: Move over Martha I want a piece of him too!

Jack is the hero of the team! YAY! :D

hey all, glad you liked the kiss... Here's an update :)

CHAPTER 7

Jack and Martha were the image of the perfect couple walking the hallways at school, people would stare and whisper as they walked past, but neither of them cared. Martha was the happiest she had been in well for as long as she could remember and Jack was living any guys dream dating the hottest girl in the school (whom he loved) and on the road to captaining their footy team to the State Championships.

“So the game is at 8pm Friday night” Jack stated to Martha, it was Monday.

“Yea you’ve told me that 100 times this week” Martha laughed and leant in to give Jack a kiss.

“I’m just making sure you remember so that you leave the night clear and come to barrack me on.” Jack replied.

“Oh I’m pretty sure I’m not going to be able to make it, I’m sorry Holden.” Martha joked.

Jack acted upset.

“Nah of course I’ll be there cheering you on” She said with a smile.

“I’ve got to go see some of the players about starting training early this afternoon; I’ll see you tonight yea?” Jack said

“Yea, of course.” Martha replied, Jack leant over Martha’s shoulder and gave her a quick kiss goodbye.

*****

Jack was walking towards the footy field, when he heard someone call out to him.

“Oi HOLDEN!” Jack turned to see Aden and his mates approaching him like a gang. “So you’re living quite the dream life aren’t you Holden?” Aden confronted him just millimetres from Jack’s face.

Jack didn’t reply.

“Oh it looks like the big time football player is too scared to say anything boys.” Aden smirked. “Listen here Holden, you can’t have it all. Which do you want your super hot girlfriend or your dream spot on the footy team?” Aden said into Jack’s face.

Jack couldn’t take not saying anything anymore, Aden was threatening him.

“Is that a threat Aden?” He asked

“It’s not a threat just a warning.” Aden answered

“What you think you can steal my girlfriend or my spot on the team?” Jack laughed “Martha thinks you are scum and wouldn’t touch you with a ten foot poll and you could never be a good enough player to have my captaincy, so keep dreaming Geoffrey’s.”

“You might be right about Martha, but your football position is far from guaranteed. I’d watch your back Holden” Aden threatened before walking off. He left a somewhat stunned Jack who shook his head and brushed the whole thing off.

*****

“That was a good training session; I’ll see you all the same time tomorrow.” Tony said to his team.

Jack watched the team walk off, he waited for his dad.

“So do you think we are ready?” Jack asked

“As ready as you can ever be. As long as you all continue to work hard all week I can’t see why you shouldn’t win on Friday.” Tony replied

“Ok, thanks dad.” Jack said with enthusiasm

“So do you want a lift home Jack?” Tony asked

“Nah, I’m going to walk to Martha’s, I might stay the night.” Jack answered.

“Ok, just don’t stay up too late you have school tomorrow.” Tony directed his son.

“Yea Dad I know, I’ll see yah.” Jack walked off.

*****

Martha looked at the clock for the millionth time that night, 7:50pm where was Jack? She was worried. She didn’t believe he would stand her up, and he usually would have called. She decided she had waited long enough she would call Tony and see if he knew where Jack was.

‘Bring bring’

“Hello” Tony answered the phone.

“Hey Tony, its Martha.”

“Oh hi Martha what’s up?” Tony asked

“I was wondering if Jack was there,” Martha asked.

“No I thought he was at your house.” Tony replied

“Oh, he’s not he was meant to be here hours ago.” The worry was evident in Martha’s voice.

“Really.. He told me he was walking to your house when he left training, I’ll go look for him.” Tony replied he also was worried.

“Thanks Tony, let me know if you find him.”

“Yea let me know if he shows up.” Tony hung up the phone; this was strange his son was usually really reliable.

*****

Jack clasped at his knee which was killing him, he shook his head he couldn’t believe this was happening to him. He’d been walking down the beach path towards Martha’s, when someone had hit his knee from behind, as he fell to the ground his phone had fallen out of his hand and smashed. Jack realised he couldn’t just lie there he would have to attempt to walk up the path and get himself help. He put his knee to the ground but it gave out, he fell once again landing on the path with a sickening thud, “Ahh” he yelled out in pain. He would just have to continue to lay there and wait for someone to find him.

*****

Martha couldn’t take it anymore she was tired of waiting for Tony to call or Jack to show up. She felt so useless sitting in the flat doing nothing. She got to her feet throwing a Jacket over her shirt and taking off her short shorts she pulled on some jeans, she decided she was going to walk and look for Jack.

Martha walked down her stairs and was faced with a decision would she take the road route to the footy fields or the beach route. She figured that Tony would have taken the road route so she decided to take the beach one, plus something told her that the beach was the way to go, maybe it was something between her and Jack or maybe it was simply because it’s the route she’d prefer to walk.

Martha looked out at the sea as she walked, Summer Bay was quite the place to live in she couldn’t imagine growing up anywhere else. She looked back at the path up ahead, she saw something laying on the ground twenty metres away.

“Jack!” She called out.

Relief ran through Jack, Martha had found him.

“Martha I’m over here!” He called back.

“I’m coming” Martha ran down the path towards Jack. When she got there she gave him a massive hug, but she accidently knocked his injured knee.

“Ahh!” Jack let out.

“Oh I’m sorry what is wrong?” Martha had been so glad to see Jack she’d forgotten to ask whether he was ok.

“Someone hit my knee with something.” Jack answered

Martha looked at Jack’s knee which was already bruised and swollen.

“ehh it looks sore, here I’ll help you walk.” Martha helped Jack stand. Jack put his arm around Martha on his injured knee side and hopped, they continued this all the way up the path. They made it to the Diner, where Rachel was eating her dinner after finishing her shift at the hospital.

“What happened?” Rachel ran to Jack and Martha as soon as she sore Martha helping Jack hop into the Diner.

“Someone hit my knee with something.” Jack explained

Rachel looked Jack’s knee over; “it doesn’t look good Jack it’s definitely dislocated, you’ll have to go to the hospital to have it put back in place and get x-rays.” She said. Jack’s heart sank.

*****

Jack sat in a hospital bed waiting for the results of his x-rays to come back, Martha held his hand tightly.

“We are almost regulars here.” Martha joked trying to lighten up the mood.

Jack gave Martha a quick smile before his face turned sullen once more.

Rachel walked through the door carrying Jack’s x-rays, she held them up to the bright light.

“Hmmm..” she looked the x-rays over.

“Is it bad?” Tony who had been quite since they’d got there asked.

“It’s not broken just badly bruised and there is slight ligament damage, the knee cap was dislocated as you already knew” Rachel explained

“Will I be able to play on Friday?” Jack asked

“hmm.. I’ll give you pain killers and crutches, keep your knee strapped and stay off it until Thursday we’ll look it over then and decide, it’s not likely though Jack so don’t get your hopes up.”

Jack looked at his father who looked just as upset as himself. Martha squeezed Jack’s hand, she didn’t know what to say to him, so she just leant into him and gave him a kiss on the forehead.

*****

Preview: Scouts are coming to the Bay will Jack be able to play?

Posted

It's definitely Aden or one of his friends. :angry: He's just jealous!

Martha was the one who found him. She can be the heroine for once after all the things Jack has already done for her. :)

If Jack isn't able to play when the scouts are coming, he's not going to like that. :(

More please.
