Love & Basketball [Book 1]

Chapter 18

Sorry I haven't updated this story in a while I've been busy with other stories and school and well other stuff in my life... I'll try to make it up and ummm I'm kinda gonna fast forward the story a bit.

Cymphonique POV

Two months later...

We're already up against our very first team of the game and we basically won. They're just two points down from us and if I make this shot; we win. I dribble the ball down the court before I pass it. I run down the court when Willow toss the ball across the court and catch it. I shot the ball hoping for it go score in the basket.

"Yes," I said while the crowd goes wild. They all start cheering the minute I make the shot. Now, I have to shoot three baskets to win the whole game.

The ref blows his whistle and the players get on the court. He tosses the ball over to me and I start to dribble. I dribble at least three times than stop. I constantly look t the basket and shiver. I cannot miss any baskets or the other team prolly win.

I ain't 'bout to let them win at all. I finally stop dribbling and take a deep breath. I stand in position and shoot the ball; it makes the basket. Now I have to just make two more and than we win. I dribble the ball again and throw it again.

I make it again. This is the final shot. I ain't gonna lie, I'm too nervous. I dribble the ball nonstop and shake. My eyes gaze into the basket until it's a blur. Err'body goes silent, I breathe hardly, and throw the ball when my angle is all off.

The ball hits the middle of the basket, spins around the hoop, it keeps on spinning until it stops... It makes the basket. "Yeah!" I shout when the team comes and picks me up.

"We won!" The whole team shouts as I smile real hard. I look over Ito the crowd to see August and Nicki there cheering me on.

I look over into the crowd to see Jacob smilin', he waves at me and I wave back. Then I see Bahja over in the crowd straight muggin' me. I roll my eyes and stick my middle finger up on the DL. They put me down and I run over towards Nicki and August. They are so proud of me.

Jacob comes over, walkin' slow, while I am being circled by Zendaya and Lulu. I turn 'round pretendin' like I ain't see him comin' by. He cuts thru and gives me a hug and kiss onna cheek. I (sorta) blush and look away when he laughs. It's not funny.

"You came," I whisper to Jacob.

"Oh course, why wouldn't I?" Jacob asks. "Because of the tour?"

"Yeah," I say. "you're still leavin' ain't you?" He nods his head.

"In like two hours... So I'm gonna spend sometime with you before I leave." Jacob said.

***

Jacob and I are outside, chillin' in the grass, not really talkin'. Yeah, I guess you can say that we gon' together. We are. I kno' it's pissin' Bahja off, so what. Her lost is my damn gain.

Me and Jacob have been together for a good week. After the whole kiss we shared at the movies kinda sealed it. From then on we been coolin' and tried to keep it on the DL but couldn't. I ain't really trippin' on it tho'. As long as we good that's what matters.

Jacob puts his hat on my head and pulls me tighter towards him. I lay back all comfortable when he kiss my head. I smile.

"Jacob, stop." I giggle. "stop it boy."

"Or what," he kisses on me.

"Just stop." I said and he stops. "why'd you stop?" I frown.

"You told me to... I don't know why. Lemme continue." Jacob said.

"Okay," I blush. I sit there calm while Jacob kisses on my arms up to my neck. My body cringes a lil' when he does that too. He lays me down and I just look up at him. My hands holdin' on his arms and he leans down to my face and puts his lips on mine.

"I love you," he says and I look the other way. "I know I know you ain't gonna say it back."

"'Cause I gotta feel the same way. I like you and all that but love is a different story." I said to him and he nods his head. "Don't get mad."

"I ain't." Jacob said and I look at him.

"Ain't? I ain't? You been 'round me too long." I said laughin'.

"Yup, and that's all yo' fault." Jacob said.

"Whatever," I say.

"Mhm." Jacob mumbles.

"Gimme my kiss nigga." I said and he kisses me and then go down to my neck and I grip on his arm. "stop," I say.

He keeps kissin ' on my neck 'til I start to moan. "Jacob, stop," I moan and my eyes closed slowly. "Stop." He keeps goin' 'til all I can do is moan.

"Ja--cob... stop. Stop. We're... Gonna get cau..." I say breathlessly when I hear August in the background.

"You betta get yo' ass of Cym, before you leave out dead." August warns him and we both jump up. "Say bye Cym."
