He had to pack extra clothes for the first day of tryouts, and he knew everyone at school would notice his extra duffel bag being toted around campus. With a few strokes to detangle his moppy curls, he wasn’t keen on appearances, but something told him, make this year different. So with a few globs of hair gel, he tousled his locks so they hung perfectly off the edge of his forehead. Now, time to rummage what clothes I have unpacked, he thought as he sauntered back into his room and opened his closet doors.

He quickly packed up his duffel bag with two sets of clothes, one for the tryout, and one for the post-shower. He placed his cleats into the bag, stained from dirt and old turf from when he once played.

Chapter 1: A Fresh Start A cloudless, breezy Saturday morning! A bright start to a bright new future awaits as Levi unlocked the front door to his new home. His home. Levi, barely seventeen saved up enough money from odd jobs, and mowing lawns that he was finally able to call a place his own. It was a large home for rent in a nature focused neighborhood known as Parkside. He was still in high school, but Levi grew up in and out of foster care and was finally able to support himself. Unwilling to be forced to rely on others who really only wanted government money for housing him. He found this home for rent at an affordable price, and the owner agreed to rent it to him so long as he didn’t do drugs, and would promise to consider going to college after high school, something Levi always aspired to do anyways. The house came fully furnished, it was a two-bedroom, one bathroom single story home with a great open concept for entertaining. Levi always found a way to cope with his stressful and unpredictable upbringing through the common and relaxing vibrations from music. He even began to write his own songs!
