I love you no matter what [ON HOLD]

Chapter 7

"Emma wake up!!" I hear someone shouts at me, my eyes fly open and to my surprise stands Sarah with her hands resting on her hips right next to my bed. Oh my god, did I sleepover?

"What time is it?" I ask her and jump out of my bed, "Half an hour until you start" she answers and walks over to her side of the room to pack her things. As lucky as I am I don't need much time in the morning,

"Thank you for waking me, I forgot to set the alarm last night" I let out a breath. "No worries, I don't want you to be late hun" I'm surprised by her choice of words but I think it's sweet of her.

"I'll see you before the game, right?" She asks me, "Yes of course, good luck today" I say as she walks toward the door, I'm still in my over sized t-shirt and my panties when she opens the door.

"Thanks, you too and see ya later" she walks out of our dorm and closes the door behind her, I need to hurry since it's only 25 minutes left now. I apply some makeup, the usual and a pair of light blue jeans shorts and a red t-shirt that fits perfectly after my hips. My hair is just the natural, no ponytail.

As I start walking to the main building I start to think about Jason, he left short after the confrontation about Zac. I'm really curious about their past, Jason is a sweet guy while Zac is...rude all the time. I wonder what went wrong with him.

I am so into my thoughts that I walk into someone and he or she drops all its books, oh no why did I do that. I kneel down at the same time as the other to help...him. I recognize those shoes, I can't put my finger on where from but it's something about them. I don't make eye contact with him until we both stand up, it's Zac. I hand him the books.

"Sorry" I mumble under my breath and walk past him. I look back at him when I reach my classroom, he's still standing there and looks back at me. We make eye contact for the second time today but I break it to walk into class, he hasn't said anything to me since yesterday. Weird.

"Are you ready girl?" Sarah stands in the doorway waiting for me. She looks amazing, she wears a red dress that ends right above her knees. My dress looks like hers, but the difference is that mine is light blue.

"Yes as ready as I possibly can be" I smile as I look in the mirror. We walk outside heading to the basketball stadium, it's huge. A lot of people is outside waiting to go inside. I can't see Zac or Jason here, at least Zac must be inside preparing for his big game.

A bunch of teenagers open the doors to the stadium and let us in. We walk through the corridor and take left just as the others. The basketball plan is huge. "Take your seats people so we can get this party started" a young voice sounds through the speakers as Sarah and I take our seats in the back.

"Are you excited?" Sarah asks me with a smile on her face, she's clearly excited. "Yes, I am in fact excited" I giggle back.

"Good, It's both Cole and Zac's first time playing today" She informs me while she looks out on the plan trying to find them jumping around in shorts.

"Cole?" I ask confused, I know Jason mentioned him a few days ago but I haven't met him yet.

"Yeah, he is a friend of ours. He will be at the party later" she answers me still looking at the plan.

"There, look!" She points at two figures with their backs against us. "Zac is the one with number 14 and Cole is the one with number 18." I spot them with their coach having a pep talk.

"Ahh I see them" I say and look at them, Zac has been so strange lately...or today and yesterday in fact.

"Hi, sorry I'm late" Jason approach my thoughts sitting down beside me. "No worries, they haven't started yet" Sarah giggles at him.

"Ah good" he says sounding exhausted, he has clearly run his way here. "Do you guys want any snacks till the game?" Sarah asks me and Jason while she stands up.

"No, I'm good thank you though" I answer her, I don't really feel for eating right now. Jason is on the other hand. "Yeah just some popcorn please" Jason says. Sarah disappears into the crowd of teenagers.

"So this is your first basketball game you're attending at huh?" Jason grins at me as he looks over to me. "Well sort of, I went to a Lakers game with my dad when I was younger but I don't particularly remember anything from it" I giggle as I answer his question.

"No way?! A lakers game? I've always wanted to attend one" he says overwhelmed and excitement clear in his voice. "Haha really?" I ask surprised.

"Yes! Woow that's so cool, I'm jealous at you now" he laughs and looks over to me with his white teeth shining from the bright light inside the building. I laugh at him, he's really nice and charming. Compared to Zac he's a cute rabbit, and Zac's obviously have to be an alligator.
