Bailey was almost toppling over at a sudden light-headedness she felt, but that quickly faded. She had a deep...how could she say it? 'Need', for Jack. Actually, she was surprising herself.

Soccer had been Bailey's favoriet past time for over 5 years now. Whenever she was stressed, sad, or any type of upset, she would go out in her medium-sized backyard and kick around her soccer ball. Even when she was happy. If she was just plain bored she'd start kicking that old soccer ball around. And it wasn't that the game was just fun for her; it upped her self-confidence, and it made her feel on top of the world. It made her feel powerful.

And she wasn't sure if she liked it or not. Either way, she wasn't going to let her team down.
