The ref blew the whistle and released the ball in the air. Reiner and I shot up, trying to get the ball. Reiner was taller than me by a lot, so he got the ball, and brought it back down to start the game. "Pft, this lil girl ain't gonna get any points. I can just block all her shots." Reiner thought, as he dribbled the ball.

Reiner drove to the basket with confidence, knowing that he had everything in the bag, but I knocked the ball out of his hand, leaving him stunned. The ball was about to go out, so I quickly ran to retreave the ball. Reiner grunted, and ran to get the ball, but he was to late. I got the ball and started dribbling down the court.

Reiner started running down the court trying catch up with me, but he was too late. I made the layup, making the score 2-0. "Make it take it." I say boldly. Reiner scoffed, then he ran to the half court line, and got ready to check up. (If you play basketball, you would know what checking up or the term 'check up' means).

A couple minutes go by, and both of you have points on the board. 10-8, Reiner in the lead. Reiner scoffed in selfishness, "All I gotta do is keep the lead, and this game is mine." He smirked. "Don't get your hopes up pretty boy, this game ain't over..." I said, checking up with him. "Whatever you wanna believe princess." He said, checking the ball back.

I stepped back and shot the ball. Everyone was surprised, even Reiner. "N-no way she's gonna make that..." He thought. Reiner and everyone else who was watching the game followed the ball all the way until it went into the hoop. Nothing but net.

I took a few steps foward, so I was in position to start. "Shut up with the princess. I hate being called princess."

Reiner growled in anger, "You've really done it now." He said, cracking his knuckles.

The game continued, and both of us racked up points. Before I knew it, it came down to the last point of the game, 19-18 with Reiner in the lead by 1. "You got this Reiner!" Zeke called out. He scoffed and grinned, "I already know that. Don't have to remind me." "Better think again Reiner, cause I'm gonna win." I said, with a determined voice and a smirk on my face.

Levi's POV (a few minutes before):

I go to the back of the prision and open a cigarette pack and take out a cigarette . I take the lighter out of my pocket and light it and start smoking it. I inhale and then exhale. "These prisoners get on my last nerves I swear." I say, exhausted and ready to go home. I begin to move my hand with the cigarette in it to my mouth, but I hear the door to lead to the back swing open. I jump a little, and turn around to see Hange.

"Every heard of slowly opening doors?!" I say annoyed, but glad it's just Hange. Hange and I have been very close friends ever since I came to work here at the jail.

"Warden told me to tell you to switch posts with Connie." Hange told me. "Ughhh why do I gotta be out there with all those brats?!" I groaned. "It's so quiet in here and so loud out there." "Just following orders Levi!" Hange said in her constant goofy voice while skipping away. I rolled my eyes. "So stupid." I said under my breath.

I took one more hit from my cigarette, then threw it to the ground, so I could step on it. After that, I threw it away and made my way back inside to head to the courtyard.

I opened the door to the courtyard, not wanting to be there. I saw people playing checkers, at the weight section, and people just sitting at the tables, put most people were focusing their attention at the basketball court.

It wasn't like a whole bunch of people surrounding the court, so I could see who was on the court. It was that new girl inmate who called me shorty. Ugh I hate that name. Then it was that Reiner guy who's always messing with someone. I looked at the score and it was 19-18. "Was that female brat in the lead?" I thought to myself. "I asked another guard that was close by. "Hey, who's winning right now?" I asked. "Reiner is." He told me. "Thanks."

"So the brat is losing." I said to myself. "And they go up to 20, so Reiner only needs one point to win."

End of Levi's POV. Back to Y/N's POV:

"Better think again Reiner, cause I'm gonna win." I said, with a determined voice and a smirk on my face. Reiner made the last shot, so it was his ball. He checked up to me and I checked up to him. When he got the ball, he started to dribble. He dribbled for a moment, then started to drive to the basket. I buffed up my defense, making sure I don't give him an opening for a layup.

Reiner stepped back and shot the ball. I tried to block, but he's way taller than me. I followed the ball to the basket, but it hit the rim. "Shoot" I heard him say under his breath. Luckily, I got the rebound and started dribbling down the court.

Reiner caught up to me and he started to defend. "His defense is stronger than before." I realized. I tried to find an opening to make a layup, but his defense was too strong. "Dang, he's staying on me." I say in my head.

Reiner is defending me like crazy. I can't find a opening. I have to make a 3 pointer.

The shot clock started to get shorter and shorter. I have to shoot. I have to shoot. I didn't hesitate, I drove to the basket, then I crossed him up. He stumled a little bit, but he quickly realized and shifted his view to me. I quickly stepped back behind the 3-point line and let go of the ball. Reiner tried to block the shot, but it was too far up in the air.

Everyone watching the game, including Reiner and I watched the ball fly through the air and get closer, and closer to the basket. Everything felt like it was in slow motion. The ball hit the rim of the hoop and stayed there for what felt like years. The ball started to move slightly, then fell into the hoop.

Everyone went silent. The ball hitting the floor sounded like the loudest sound in the world. "21-19, Y/N wins!" The score keeper said. Clapping and cheers started to form within the crowd. "No..." Reiner said with a disappointed tone.

Reiner looked at me with a sad, worry look. I smirked and shrugged my shoulders and that look turned into a angry look real quick. I turned around and walked off the court boastfully.
