"Um... No... I'm just..." Adrian tried to say but the principal seems too sure about it that he ended up agreeing. "Y-yes. I guess I am."
"First day, uh? You look a little nervous, but it's fine. You'll get used to it." The principal smiled as he patted Adrián on the back. "Oh, I see you are a big guy! That's good! You'll get the boys respect in an instant!"
"T-thanks." Adrian replied as he followed the principal to the football field, just the opposite way to where he wanted to go.
"Tell me. What's your name?"
"Adri... Andy..." Adrian lied because he thought saying his true name could be risky.
"Andy? That's sounds like a good name for a guy with your physique!"
"My physique? I don't get it."
"A jock, come on! You can't tell me you don't consider yourself one of them. Tall, big muscles, liking sports. It must be difficult for you finding shoes for those feet. What size are you? 14? 15?"
"Nine... nineteen..." Adrian shyly replied as he remembered the number in the shoe he put a moment ago. He was lucky, or maybe it's Ty's magic, that he found a pair big enough for his huge feet.
"19? Wow! I've never met someone with feet that big!!" The principal joked. "And you know what they say about big feet...." Adrian blushed deeply red. "Hahaha!! I can see you are pretty shy. That's a funny contrast with a big body like yours, I like it. And tell me, Andy. How old are you? I was trying to guess it but your beard makes it tricky. Um? 25? 28? You're definitely not in your forties like me, hahaha!!"
Adrian was so surprised that he was mistaken by a grown man when he was just 14 years old. When he aged so much? Maybe it was the hair, he was like a walking rug but at least he could hide it under his clothes, except for the beard aaaand the hairy arms and legs that he ignored but the principal clearly noticed. Adrian was so lost in his thoughts that he didn't notice a mud puddle and end up falling on it.
"Are you ok?" The principal asked as he extended a hand.
"Yeah, yeah. I'm fine."
"Ok, but you're pretty dirty now. You should change your clothes and maybe take a shower." A shower? In school? Adrian thought that wasn't a very good idea. "There are some clean clothes in the coach office and the showers are behind the stands. Your class won't start soon, so you have plenty of time to do it. Just be careful, because some students are training around and we don't want problems. It is understood?"
"Y... yes." Andy nodded and the principal left. He has a suspicion that the principal was looking at his butt before he left, but he wasn't sure. So, he just headed towards the coach office and then... the showers.
