I'm In love With The Genie

Chapter 17

"Sunoo, Sunoo! Wake up!" Sunghoon said.

"What the hell?" Sunoo replied.

"It's our date today, did you forget?" Sunghoon asked.

"I fucking know but isn't it too early?" Sunoo replied.

"Get up! My match will start in an hour." Sunghoon said.

"What Match?" Sunoo replied as he stands up, rubbing his eyes.

"Basketball Match." Sunghoon excitedly said.

-------

They arrived 30 minutes before the match, so they have time to do warm-up. Sunghoon grabs Sunoo's hands to the gym. Entering, there are some people at the benches. As they entered to the gym, some people stares at Sunghoon and Sunoo.

Mumbles can be heared the moment they walk pass them. Sunghoon went to lead the way and let Sunoo sit on the front bench, a special vacant chair for someone important to a player.

"Just sit here okay, watch me how I play. I'll just do our warm-ups." Sunghoon said and left.

Sunoo is still grumpy by the fact he has to wake up because of this. "I'm waking up for this shit? What the hell is this? I thought he would bring me to shopping mall and buy me stuff." Sunoo thought.

Not more than a minute, he saw Heeseung, Jake, and Jay on the same team with Sunghoon.

Sunoo's mood got better, at least there's Jay whom he got close with. "Jay!" Sunoo shouted which earned Jay's attention.

Jay's eyes instantly brightened up, and went running towards Sunoo's bench. "Hey, what are you doing here? Are you here to see me?" Jay asked.

"Yes, I'm here to see all of you." Sunoo lied. He wasn't here to see them, it's just that coincidentally, he wasn't expecting Sunghoon's friends would also be here playing with him.

"You look so cute today. I need you to cheer for me. That way, I'll be easier to defeat our opponents." Jay said.

"Sure! What should I cheer? Go Hooligan! Go Jay Thug! HAHAHAHA." Sunoo replied.

"You're so crazy. I'm not a hooligan but anyway, you can sit here at my bench." Jay pointing his vacant special chair.

Sunoo followed Jay's command and sits on his bench. "If you're going to lose then you'll owe me something."

"Sure, let's go on a d-" Jay was cut off by Sunghoon's shout.

"Jay fucking Park! Come back here. We will start our warm-up and you Sunoo, get back at my bench." Sunghoon shouted.

Jay patted Sunoo's head before leaving, while Sunoo came back to Sunghoon's chair because the guy is literally fuming with madness.

As Jay came to go back at them, he said to Sunghoon. "Annoying as fuck."

Sunghoon just changed his jersey and saw Jay talking to Sunoo. He can't help but be mad considering Sunoo was grumpy when they got here and looking at Sunoo smiling over talking to Jay made him mad.

"This genie! Is he stupid? It's our date and he dares to smile at Jay while being grumpy at me? He even dares to sit at Jay's bench. What the actual fuck." Sunghoon thought.

The opponent started to warm-up, Sunghoon's team also didn't hold back warming up. All cheers can be heard from different sides. Sunoo's spirit was instantly lifted by the cheering. He just thought this would be a lame ass game.

"It's not even the match yet, are humans really this fucking loud?" Sunoo thought.

Sunghoon threw some shots which then magically went through the ring. Heeseung, Jake, Jay, and also some of their team mates throws shots. Some went and some didn't.

After an eventful warm-up. The match will start in a minute, Sunghoon and the opponent are in the middle to wait for the buzzer. When the buzzer hits, Sunghoon instantly grabs the ball and starts dribbling towards the opposite ring. He passed it to Heeseung because he was guarded with two guys.

Heeseung receives the ball decided to go for a two point shot. Unbelievably, it went through. The team crowd went haywire cheering. "Two points for team Red." The announcer said.

Sunoo immediately feels the need to cheer. "GO JAY! Break a leg!" Go HEESEUNG! Three points next. Go JAKE! Defend the ball." Sunoo shouted.

When he's about to cheer for Sunghoon, he ran out of any ideas what to say. "GO SUNGHOON! I don't know but just go!" Sunoo only shouted.

Sunoo didn't care wether they heard it or not. He just wanted to cheer on top of his lungs. What he didn't know is that all the guys heard him. On top of that, Jay and Sunghoon always stole a glance to Sunoo.

Sunoo smiled back to each of them. Halfway through the game, it was so intense. Everyone is scoring points. The opponent is catching up with them.

Sunoo continuously cheered. Until Jay decided to take a break and took a rest on the bench. Sitting beside Sunoo.

"Jay, you were great on the ring. I can't believe you're actually good at basketball." Sunoo praising Jay.

"Yeah, thanks to your cheer. It gave me energy." Jay replied.

"Nah, I didn't do anything. You were just great." Sunoo said.

"Ah, it's true. You gave me energy today. If you aren't here, I wouldn't score so many points. But anyway, are you free after thi-" Jay is again cut off by Sunghoon when he decided to take a rest.

"Sunghoon, you're here. You're also good at the ring. Here your water jug." Sunoo handed the jug.

"Yeah, I took a time off. I am thirsty as hell." Sunghoon lied in one breath. He was thirsty but the whole reason why he took a time off is that he saw Jay with Sunoo talking. It's his genie, and today's their date. Why should his friend intervened that.

After a few minutes, they both went back to game. Sunoo cheered again for the both of them. The referee decided to give Jay a free shots. What Jay did was unpredictable. "Sunoo, this is for you!" He look at Sunoo and shouted before going for the shot and it went through. The crowd went haywire wondering who's this Sunoo.

But Jay's look gave it all where Sunoo is sitting. Everyone was teasing them. Meanwhile, Sunghoon's face is now grumpy. After the free shots Jay did, it was now Sunghoon vs Jay instead of Team Red (Sunghoon's team) vs Team Black (Opponents team).

Sunghoon is really determined to steal all the scores from Jay. Everyone went crazy how Sunghoon went ballistic for the last second and stole all the points.

And the timer ran out, the buzzer buzz. The match ended with 89-60. A win for Team Red. Everyone cheered and roared for them. Sunoo also couldn't keep his emotions and decided to jump and jump from the sudden explosion of happiness.
