Wednesday before leaving for New York...

Zach's P.O.V

"No babe, you hold the ball like this"I say, positioning Star's hand on the basketball correctly

"Like this?"she says

"Yes"I say

I then moved back and let her shoot the ball. She made the shot. She turned and jumped around.

"My first shot ever"she says

I chuckle and shake my head.

"Yeah whatever"I say

She glares at me.

"I run faster than you though"she says

I shrug.

"How fast?"I say

"15 steps in 5 seconds"she says

"I can do 20 in 3 seconds"I say

She huffs. I smirk, throwing the basketball into the hoop.

"You hear that sound?"I say

"Cars going off?"she says

"No"I say

She giggles.

"The sound of the hoop"I say

She shrugs.

"Yeah"she says

I grin.

"That's what we call nothing but net"I say

She rolls her eyes.

After our little break, I showed her some more basketball moves. Soon she was ballin like a pro.

"How do you catch on so quick?"I say

She shrugs.

"Its a gift I guess"she says

"Damn sure is"I say

She giggles.

"Oh yeah, you know that job application I sent in?"she says

I nod.

"I got both"she says

"You got the job for the Twins and the Vikings?"I say

"Yes"she says

"Oh my god baby, that's awesome"I say, hugging her

She smiles.

"I know right?"she says

I kiss her cheek and unwrap my arms.

"So you wanna try that game of 1 on 1 now? The offer still stands"I say, smirking

She grins and nods.

"Lets say...first to 30 wins"I say

"Alright, let's go"she says

I grin.

*****

"Haha, why you mad? Because I beat you in a game of 1 on 1 and I just learned how to play?"she says

I scoff.

"I let you win that game...only because you're a beginner"I say

She rolls her eyes.

"Don't be mad baby, you'll win next time"she says

I stare at her for a while.

"Sike!"she says
