The Road to Grace Part two

Shawn felt most comfortable delivering to the football game where so much was going on nobody would pay attention to someone like him, even though he did always sneak in under the bleachers.
Nonetheless he wasn't that worried about it. He hadn't turned 18 yet so if he was careless they would surely take it easier on him.
"Sweet. You're the best." A scraggly haired blonde boy towering over Shawn at 6'4, said and slapped a big hand on Shawn's back as if it was the only way to seal the deal.
Shawn shrugged, "Anytime."
"Say- dick head Darren wandering around here somewhere. I know he's out. Been bumming off of me. Do you mind hanging around for a minute while I track him down?"
"Uhh...sure. Make it quick though."
"Awesome. Don't wander off too far. I'll be back."
Shawn nodded as Travis took off through the cheering crowd.
He stood still until his knee started aching and decided to sit on the front row of bleachers.

"Shawn...is that you?"
He hadn't noticed the voice until the petite blonde set down on his right.
"Yeah...shouldn't you be out there?" Asked Shawn pointing to the cheerleaders in full position, poms flying as much as their tiny skirts.
She lifted up her right arm to reveal a plaster cast, "kind of sidelined for a little while but I'm here for support and...kinda having a sleepover all of us at the motel 6 after."
"Oh...okay...guess that's fun."
"It's okay...so, where you been? I've not seen you at school in forever? Did you move?"
"No...long story."
"Well if you haven't noticed I got plenty free time right now."
Why was she talking to him? They'd barely spoken a word even when he was going to school. ...
