Ryder's POV

Game day is the day every sport player lives for. And this year there is a crazy pleasure on me. It's my senior year when people look at getting drafted into pros.

Last year our team lost to Royal city, but this year we will get the championship. I strive to be the best at what i do, and being under pressure is all apart of that.

"You ready for the game?" Danny asked out to my attention as we reached where the game was held.

"Yeah. Sure". I said grabbing my bag.

I saw katie and her friend stepping out of the bus. I was going over to her but she was talking to her coach. So i decided that i would do it later, after the game is over. I just need to stay in game mode. My mind has to be one hundred percent focused if we want to win.

I walked into the locker room so i could drop my bag in the locker room. I was in my warm up gear just to throw the ball around.

Carlos and danny wasn't too far behind me when we got on the field, so we would throw the ball around. I noticed Nathan Hamilton was chatting to katie. I don't know why but it kinda pissed me off, seeing the way he was eyeing her.

But i could tell that she wasn't impressed. She had that i don't have time for this bullshit look on her face. That made me relieved.

"Dude" peter yelled across me.

I snapped my eyes over to him, and it was a good thing cause i was almost hit with a ball. But i caught it before it could hit me.

"Why would you throw the ball if u knew i wasn't paying attention?" I grumbled.

"You caught it don't you?" He continued and i rolled my eyes.

"Hamilton get over here, and leave the girl alone". Coach yelled out. He gave katie one last look, then ran over to the coach, who i could tell was scolding him.

"Serves him right" i muttered under my breath.

"Alright boys, gather up." Coach said and we all huddled in a circle around him.

"I know a lot of you boys , this is your final season, so i just want u to play like the team i know. If we play as a team, we will do unimaginable things this season. So now we get padded up and be back here in fifteen and ryn laps." He clapped his hands to signal that the conversation is over.

We all nodded and headed to the locker room. This is going to be a good start of the season, i hope. It's always been a tight game between us.

Once we all padded up, we made our way out and coach hollered at us to start running laps.

After what felt like forever with nervous pep talks, it was time to take the field. We load in tunnel and started tp run out. We was greeted with thousands of fans and cheerleaders shaking their poms.

"Alright boys. Game time" coach said patting my shoulders.

Rocky's POV

I'm so excited for the day. Hopefully we win. Even though i won't play doesn't mean i can't enjoy it.

I have been playing since childhood. But no one has ever seen me playing except Ryder. He has made me play several times during practice.

I wished the players good luck. The first quarter starts and i get lost in the game. We were leading but barely.

Eventually the team were going back and forth with lead. Ryder crossed up a guy badly and i chuckled as he took a three point shot.

Ryder was honestly the best in the court. I wish i could play. Just one chance.

Danny got the ball. He was pretty good at dunking since he was tall.

By the end of the quarter we were losing by 5 points.

"Nice job" coach said smiling. I sighed at the fact that i couldn't play.

The game started again and that's when Carlos got injured. His ankle was really bad. I suddenly said something that even surprised myself.

"Coach, let me in the court."
