(Anonymous) 2013-07-27 10:50 pm (UTC)(link)He’s still in the middle of the pep talk to himself when a voice trails down the hallway.
“Soccer season again boys, you know what this means? That’s right. We’re gonna whip everyone’s asses.”
A scuffle of running shoes on linoleum. A loud smack. Snorts of laughter. The clinking of locks being opened.
It’s exactly the kind of person that Lu Han hates.
“Just wait, I’m going to be the next Cristiano Ronaldo and lead Barcelona to victory,” an obnoxiously loud voice boasts to his group of lackeys.
Catcalls and a collective whoop. Lu Han can’t stand it anymore. He shouldn’t say anything but–
“Ronaldo plays for Real Madrid.”
Silence.
Lu Han closes his locker door slowly, and turns around to face four lanky boys; all of them are taller than him. Their mouths are all agape as if he has just revealed some shocking fact to them and they are all having epiphanies. They look like idiots. He can’t believe someone would make that mistake about one of the best strikers in the world. In fact, he didn’t think it’d be possible. Considering the rivalry El Clasico entails, it seems a miracle that he hasn’t been killed for saying something so dumb before.
The tallest one takes a step forward, and when he speaks, Lu Han recognizes his voice as the same one as the person who made the stupid comment.
“Yeah? So who do you think the striker for Barca –”
“Lionel Messi. You’re thinking of Lionel Messi. Cristiano Ronaldo has only ever played for Sporting CP, Manchester United, and Real Madrid. And I guess, the Portuguese national team if you’re counting.”
The boy looks flabbergasted. “You think you know so much about soccer,”
Yes, Lu Han thinks, I do, and I call it football. He remembers the bitterness he and all other Manchester United fans felt when Ronaldo signed on to play for Real Madrid. The memory is an unpleasant one, and he reflects on the success Ronaldo has had in Spain. It hurts, a little. He remembers asking why, being furious, feeling betrayed although it was made clear for several months that Ronaldo had wanted to fulfill his childhood dream of playing for Real. It still was not an easy pill to swallow.
He shrugs the thought aside. United is sitting tied at third with City, and he just hopes that they win their next game against Tottenham. That trade was so far in the past that he could move on now. He turns his attention back to the boy in front of him.
“Think you know so much, don’t you, smart-ass? Think you’re all special just because you can remember stupid numbers? Yeah? Well if you show up for the team tryouts start tomorrow afterschool, I bet I’ll cream you.”
First day as a junior in a new school and he’s already received a threat. Great.
“Fuck off Chanyeol, just wait for basketball tryouts. The football team doesn’t need anyone like you.”
Lu Han looks behind him to see another boy, eyes half closed, leaning against the lockers with his arms crossed.
Chanyeol snarls but takes his group with him back down the hallway where they came from. Lu Han watches them leave before turning his body around and smiling gratefully.
“I’m Jongin,” the other boy tells him, “and if I don’t see you creaming Chanyeol’s ass tomorrow I’ll cream you myself.”
Lu Han straightens himself and looks Jongin in the eye. “You got it.”
