For the Love of Basketball

Chapter 3

Brooke's POV

Finally it was the end of the day and I could go do my favorite thing in the world, play basketball. I went to go find Tracy, only to find her in the locker room getting ready for practice.

"Hey Trace!" I greeted her.

"Hey Brookie! You ready for practice Ms.Captain?" She asked smiling at me.

"You know it girl!" I say excitedly.

I finished getting ready and made my way into the gym so I can be there before the team got there. I was ten minutes early so I thought I would shoot a couple of baskets as practice. I did some lay ups, free throws, and three pointers. I was on fire cause I didn't miss a shot. I made one more three pointer, then out of nowhere I hear a wolf whistle. I turn around only to see no one other than Jordan.

"Nice shots there baby girl." He says smirking at me.

"I have a first name, it's Brooke. Use it!" I told him flatly.

"I know that Ms.Hayes but I like the name I already have for you." He says while winking at me.

I blushed so hard I had to look down at my shoes.

He chuckled. "What are you doing here anyway? My team has practice here in a couple of minutes." I said while looking at my watch.

"Is that so? What a coincidence so does my team." He says smirking again.

"Wait what?" I say super confused.

Right on time both teams and coaches come out of the locker rooms. Both teams look just as confused as I do.

"Listen up, today practice is gonna be a little different, we are gonna have a combined practice so that both teams can see what each other needs to work on." My coach said.

"Also because the damn cheerleaders needed the other gym." Jordan's coach said with a scowl on his face.

"Brooke and Jordan can you come here please?" Jordan's coach asked.

I walked over and we greeted each other, so basically he was telling me how we were gonna have a combined practice so we can help each other with our weaknesses. Both me and Jordan take one half of the court and start warm ups for our teams. When warm ups are done, we run some drill's and then Jordan and I go out in the hallway to talk about our teams can work on more.

"I think your bigs could guard a little more, and definitely box out more." I told him.

He nodded in agreement then said, "Yeah your right. I think your point guards can work better with foot work and lay ups."

I nod in agreement. "Should we tell the coaches what the verdict is?" I asked shyly cause he was staring so intently at me.

He chuckles and muttered, "Yeah let's go."

We go in and tell the coaches and they agree. We called our teams in and told them what we have to work on.

My girls fixed it very quickly, that's what I love about my team, they are really nice girls and they actually listen. The boys on the other hand were still having trouble with boxing out so when we were done we just watched them.

Out of nowhere Jordan's coach Jason calls me over and calls Tracy over too.

"Listen up, since you guys can't seem to do a simple box out. I'm gonna have one of the girls do it. Brooke and Tracy will take turns boxing each other out. Melanie go up to the free throw line."

Tracy, Mel, and I do as told and she boxes me out first and does it right. It was my turn now and Melanie shot the free throw and I boxed out just right. I booty bumped her as a joke and we laughed. I went back to where I was standing.

"Nice job ladies! Now guys go do that and do it till you get it right or you will be doing double the killers I already have assigned." He yelled at the boys.

Jordan stayed back and he just kept smiling at me.

"Nice boxing out baby girl." He said still smiling at me.

"Oh it's nothing, you just gotta put your butt to the gut." I say proudly.

He laughs then says, "You can put your butt to my gut anytime babe." He says huskily.

I smiled but then wipe it off. "No thank you, I don't date players as in uses a girl for what he wants then tosses her to the side like trash. That will not be me thank you." I say firmly and walk away leaving him stunned.

Jordan's POV

This girl man. Never have I met a girl like her. I think what really draws me to her is that she isn't like all the other girls begging for my attention, trying to get with me. She has respect for herself and others. She's so modest. I want her as mine. But she said something that keeps playing in my mind. "I don't date players." She was right I was a player, but I would gladly change for her, and that's exactly what I'm gonna do. When practice was over, I got my stuff and headed to the parking lot. I saw Brooke walking in front of me so I caught up and fell into step with her.

"I've been thinking about what you said and I think you're wrong about me."

She scoffs. "Yeah right, I see you everyday Jordan, I see the things you do, I'm not new here. Like I said I don't date players. Goodbye." With that she walks away to her truck. This girl just continues to surprise me.

I.Want.Her. Just as I get that thought in my head, Brittany my fling calls me. I answer, why I don't know.

"Hey Brittany." I say tiredly.

"Aww Jordy is that anyway to greet your girlfriend.?" She said purring seductively.

"How many times do I have to tell you, you are not my girlfriend Brittany. Matter of fact whatever we had is over." I said angrily.

"Wait, Jordy Bab-." I hung up on her.

Now that's over with I have one thing in mind. Make Brooke Hayes mine. And to get home and shower.
