Today is Wednesday, May 19th, 2021. I am at Basketball practice right now. we have a game this Friday, May 21st. Katie is sitting by the bleachers watching me, and cheering me on.
"COME ON NICK! YOU GOT THISSSSSS! WOOOOOOO! COME ONNNNN! SHOOT YOUR HOOP! WOOO!"
I think she is a little crazy today, we stopped at Starbucks this morning before school. I got the Carmel Crunch Frappuccino, Katie got the same thing. :)I think the coffee caffeine is getting to her now.
Sometimes I can see Tony in the gym door window watching us play, I mean I think it's a little weird, but I guess it's cool. But still confusing why he talks to me tho. After practice I was packing up my stuff and Katie was talking to me, when Tony walked up to me.
"Hey good game. You're sure to win Fridays game. No doubt about it, and I'll be there to watch you win it all." Tony says as he does a little smirk, and winks at me. then walks away.
Katie gives me that look like... "ooh gurl, did Tony Maxwell just WINK at you!?" It is still a little weird, I mean he is nice and all, but why me? why now?
"So you comin' tomorrow? I ask Katie
"Girl, you know I am. I always do." Katie responds back.
"Pinkie promise." Katie says as she gives me a sweet smile.
"Pinkie promise." I respond back, also with a sweet smile.
~Days passed it is now Friday~
"GO OUT THERE TEAM, AND DO YOUR BEST! If we lose, then lets lose better together! if we win, we win together! YOU GOT THIS!" Coach exclaims.
We all ran out to our playing spots. I notice Katie isn't sitting in her usual spot... I notice Tony is sitting in the second row on the bleachers, smiling, and looking at me. So I smiled back.
Although Katie isn't there, and pinkie promised me she'd be there, I had to start playing.
*whistle blows*
