All Falls Down: Kehlani/ You

CHP 2: Touch The Sky

Y/n POV
At UCLA gym

"Y/n sit down. You don't have to stand to watch your sister warm up." My eyes rolled before I listened to my laughing best friend. It's hard to control my excitement when it comes to my sister.

When she got her first offer from a community college I couldn't stop bragging about her. Of course bigger offers came in and I know people got tired of me talking about how cold my sister is.

She turned down some big schools to go to her dream school. I'm glad that i'm right around the corner to see her games.

I knew Alexis was bummed out about dad not being here to watch her first game but I assured her that he'll be here in October.

My knees started bouncing in anticipation as I watched my sister warm up. Soon I felt a hand on my knee and my bouncing concluded. "Your excitement is so cute Y/nn."

My hand found the one on my knee. I quickly fixated my energy into playing with Dani's fingers . My eyes never left my sister as she was smiling on the small court.

Out of the corner of my eye I see Dani grab her phone and point her camera at our hands. "Y'all look at how excited this hoe is. She playing with my fingers and shit." She ended the video with me flipping the camera off.

My attention turned to my phone soon after at an attempt to calm my nerves.

"Lani it's not even that many people in this hoe." I slightly picked my head up as I heard voices approach my left. "Destin this hoe is packed except for this row."

I looked to the right where Dani was sitting and of course poop she was taking videos of herself. I shook my head before looking towards the voices. My jaw slightly dropped when I saw a light skin girl covered in tattoos. There was a boy with her to but she had all of my attention.

My hand slightly tapped my friends shoulder but my eyes were still glued to the tatted girl who has yet to sit down. Unfortunately my staring was cut short when the girls friend caught me staring.

My eyes quickly adverted from the pair and went to my best friend.

"Dani bro, that girl is so fucking fine. She got fucking tats Dani.. TATS." Dani's head shook at my slight rambling. My eyes returned to the pair and saw the light-skinned girl My knee started bouncing again when I saw the girl five feet away.

I quickly looked back at Dani who was looking at me with an amused look. "What" I questioned the girl. She mumbled a quick nothing before looking behind me. Before I could respond I felt a tap on my shoulder.

My eyes turned to where I was tapped and saw the girl I was gushing about. "Are these seats taken." My eyebrows shot up in surprise before I responded. "Uh um no y'all can sit here."

The girl gave me a smile before she took her seat right next to me. A deep breath left my lips as I sat back into my seat. A small laugh left Dani's lips as she typed away on her phone.

....

"AND YOUR LADY BRUINS BEAT UC DAVIS 3-1." I stood up clapping with a big smile on my face. "Hey your girlfriend played great." My eyes brows went into a confused state as the tatted girl talked to me.

She noticed my confusion and spoke up again. "Number eleven. The girl on your shirt? Is that your girl."

My head quickly shook before I spoke up. "No no, that's my lil sister. I'm single." She nodded her head before saying a quick sorry.

"Your sister is cold as fuck. I don't understand this sport but she look good." I chuckled lightly at the girls words.

"She is and you would think that I knew a lil something about this sport but I have no clue." It was now her turn to return a laugh.

"My name is Kehlani." I shook her extended hand. "Y/n." Not sure on what to say next I averted my eyes back to the court.

"Are you a student here." My attention was turned back to the tatted girl. "No, I actually just own a music store nearby." This new information seemed to surprise the girl.

"Yo that's crazy. I think I had went to your store before I came here. I've been looking for some new equipment."

This is the best case scenario right now. Her being into music is a way that I can talk to her more.

"Damn, I'm sorry I wasn't there. If you're not doing anything tomorrow you can come by and I'll help you out." My statement makes the girl smile while she nods her head.

"Id love that." We then exchanged number and said our goodbyes. Once she was gone I let out a breath that I didn't know I was holding.

"Look at you lil Y/nn, picking up a girl." I shook my head at my best friends remarks and returned my gaze to the tatted girl.
...

We waited outside for about 10 minutes until my sister showed up sporting a big smile.

"Hey guys." We both hugged the athlete before showering her in praises.

"Alexis really got hops. She could touch the sky if she wanted to."

Kehlani

"So is that your next girlfriend." My eyes rolled automatically at Destins words. The girl was good looking but I don't have time for a relationship.

"Destin, I don't want that girl." He mumbled a quick whatever and we were on our way to his car. "I really don't, she's just gonna be someone who gives me deals at her store."

My logic makes complete sense. Be friends and spend less money on equipment.

"You know who gets the best deals." He took a quick pause. "Girlfriends. Shit you could probably get some free shit Lani." He said as he talked with his hands.

Well he does have a point and technically i'm not using her. I'm just utilizing her connections.

••••.
I have a plan for these next chapters and it's going to revolve around one of Kehlani's features.
