The crowd was surprisingly loud, as to the fact that this was in fact an away game, and we were not the home team what so ever, all at the exact same time too, at that. As I kind of just seemed to have stood there, and I kind of just seemed to have stared for just a little bit more time, at that. As in the end, I just then did in fact just seem to start to smile all at the exact same time too, at that.
As it had in fact been really cool as to just what it was that I had in fact just seen right in front of my eyes just now, all at the exact same time too. If it was that I was  it going to lie to my self, all at the exact same time too. As I began to start to yell loud along with the rest of the crowd, at that.
"Let's go Pearce!" I yelled at the top of my lungs, as I knew that it was that he could not hear me what so ever. As that was due to the fact that the stadium was in fact insanely loud just now, all at the exact same time too. But I just kind of felt like I did not care what so ever, if it was that I was not going to lie to my self either, at that.
As I kind of felt like it was that I could not help but to hold that smile on my face for just a little bit more time, all at the exact same time too. As I expected the other team to call a time out, all at the exact same time too. As I felt like it was that they must be pretty demoralized after what it was that they had just witnessed, all at the exact same time as well, at that.
As it was that I had in fact just so happened to have seemed to have stood there, and I had in fact just so happened to have seemed to have stared for just a little bit more time, all at the exact same time too, all at once, at that. That was when I just then did in fact seem to start to hear the ref blow the whistle, as it was clear that the other team was about to get ready to inbound the ball, all at the exact same time too, at that.
As soon as it was that I had in fact just seemed to have began to have started to have realized that it was in fact the case right now, all at once. That was when I just then did in fact just seem to start to hear Xavier yell a whole lot louder than it was that I had just yelled a few seconds. As it seemed like I was just a baby compared to what it was that he was doing just now.
Though I suppose that he had been used to a lot of this kind of stuff his entire life, so I felt like it had to be easy for him, at that. As I kind of just rolled my eyes a little bit to my self, all at the exact same time too, all at once, at that, never the less. As I just then did in fact just seem to start to begin to listen as to just what ever it was that he did in fact feel like he even needed to say, all at the exact same time too.
"Come on guys! The games not over! Get back to your spots on defense!" He said, all at the exact same time too, all at once, at that. As it was clear that my entire team had in fact heard as to just what it was that he had in fact just seemed to have said to them, all at the exact same time too.
As that was of course, as it was that I did in fact just seem to start to go on ahead and get ready to stop what ever it was that the other team did in fact have planned, all at the exact same time too. As I saw that there was in fact 25 seconds left on the shot clock. As it was clear to me that the other team did in fact have plenty of time to get ready to call a play, all at the exact same time too, at that.
As it seemed like we were in fact going to be fine, as I knew that my team had in fact practiced for this kind of stuff. As I knew that it was that they did in fact know as to just what it was that they were even doing, all at the exact same time too, at that. As I felt like I should not be all too worried about this what so ever.
That was of course until I noticed that it was that there was in fact one player that was in fact on our team. That did in fact not have a single clue as to just what it was that was even going on, all at the exact same time too, all at once, at that. As I just then did in fact just seem to notice that the one person was in fact Alissa, all at the exact same time too.
I did not blame her for not knowing as to just what it was that was in fact going on just now. As it was that I knew that it was of course, at that. That she had not been with the team, as this had just been a spur of the moment thing, all at the exact same time too. As I knew that she did not have a single clue as to just what it was that Xavier had in fact even been talking about.
I kind of just seemed to let out quite a bit of a soft sigh to my self, all at the exact same time too. As I just almost wanted to close my eyes, all at once, at that. As I just then did in fact just seem to start to begin to speak a little bit quietly, all at the exact same time too, all at once, at that.
"Oh Christ..." I said, as it was that it was clear to me that I was not the only one that did in fact notice that it was of course, at that. That Alissa did not have a single clue as to just what it was that was in fact even going on, all at the exact same time as well.
As it was that I had in fact just seemed to have began to start to have noticed that it was in fact the case. That was when I just then did in fact just seem to start to see that it was that the other team. And the guy that was in fact inbounding the ball, all at the exact same time too, at that.
That he just then did in fact just seem to start to pass the ball to a dude who had to be just about 6'6, all at the exact same time too. That was the closest dude to Alissa, all at the exact same time too, at that, never the less. As it was that Alissa as it was that I could see, all at the exact same time too, at that, none the less, once again.
She did in fact just seem to turn her head on over to just where it was that the ball was going right on over towards. As it just seemed to sail right on over her head, all at the exact same time as well, at that. As I saw it go right in to the hands of the guy that was in fact seeming to stand there and stare, all at the exact same time as well, none the less.
As he was the one lone star player that was in fact on the other team, all at the exact same time too. As it was that he did in fact have a smile on his face, all at the exact same time too, all at once, at that. As it was clear that he did in fact have his eyes on the basket, as it was fairly clear to me that it was that he was going for a dunk to show off to the already loud crowd, all at the exact same time too.
As it was that he had in fact just seemed to have moved forward, all at the exact same time too, all at once. That was when I just then did in fact just seem to see as to the fact that it was. That Alissa, clearly being a very good team player, all at the exact same time too, never the less. That she just then did in fact just seem to start to step right in front of the guy, all at the exact same time too, all at once, at that.
As it was that I had in fact just seemed to gulp, as it was that I knew as to just what it was that was about to happen next, all at once. As it was clear that the guy from the other team, all at the exact same time too. That he did in fact just seem to have his eyes, and his focus on the basket, all at the exact same time too, all at once.
As he just then did in fact begin to start to go at full speed, on to just where it was that Alissa was at, all at the exact same time too, all at once. As it was that I just then did in fact just seem to start to see him slam him self in to her, all at the exact same time too. As I saw her fall to the ground, all at the exact same time too.
As soon as it was that I had in fact just seemed to have seen him do as such a thing like that. That was when the entire team did in fact just seem to get up from off of the bench, all at the exact same time too. As I heard the voice of Oliver, all at the exact same time as well, all at once.
As it was clear that he too was in fact just as shocked as the rest of us, as to just what it was that he had in fact just seen, and as to just what it was that he had in fact even just witnessed right in front of his eyes, all at the exact same time too. As I did in fact begin to just start to listen as to just what it was that he did in fact even feel like he had to say, at that. As he was in fact out of the corner of my vision, as his jaw was clearly dropped.
"Holy shit... What the fuck?!" He seemed to have yelled, all at the exact same time too, all at once, at that. As it was that I just then did in fact just seem to start to feel like he described perfectly as to just what it was that I was in fact thinking right now.
As to the fact as to just how it was that the guy could have just let him self do as to just such a thing like that to a woman, all at the exact same time too, all at once, at that. As I just then did in fact just seem to start to get my mind, and my thoughts off of that. As to just what it was that Oliver had in fact even just said, at that.
As it was that I had in fact just seemed to have stood there, and I had in fact just seemed to have stared in front of me for just a few seconds longer, all at the exact same time too, all at once, at that. As I just then did in fact just seem to start to see that it was that Xavier was in fact sprinting over to the scene of the crime, all at once.
As it was that I just then did in fact just seem to start to see that it was that the rest of my team that was with me were in fact doing the exact same thing, all at once, at that. As I kind of just seemed to start to notice that it was, all at the exact same time too. That I needed to do the same.
As I knew that it was that I needed to make sure that she was okay, all at the exact same time too. As it was that I had in fact just seemed to have joined the rest of the team, all at the exact same time too. That was when I heard all of the refs just blowing their whistles simultaneously, all at the exact same time too.
As it was that I had in fact just seemed to have began to have started to realize as to the fact that it was in fact the case, all at the exact same time too. That was when I just then did in fact just seem to start to see that it was that Xavier was in fact running on over. As to just where it was that the general ref was in fact at, all at the exact same time too, all at once, at that.
As it was that I had in fact just seemed to have stood there, and I had in fact just seemed to have stared, all at the exact same time too, for just a few seconds, all at once. That was when I just then did in fact just seem to start to see that it was. That Xavier was in fact yelling right at the ref, all at the exact same time too.
The ref had his eyes wide, all at the exact same time as well. As it was clear that he was a little bit scared. As well as the fact that it was that he was a little bit pressured by Xavier. As it was clear that he was in fact paying his full attention on to just what ever it was that Xavier felt like he even needed to say to him, all at once.
As it was that Xavier did in fact just seem to get right up in to his face, all at the exact same time too. That was when he just seemed to continue to yell on over towards the ref. As I of course, did in fact just seem to start to listen as to just what ever it was that he did in fact feel like he even needed to say on over towards him, all at the exact same time as well, never the less.
"Are you joking me? What has this organization come to? You are really going to let that kid get away with a dirty play like that on a girl?" He said, as he added a little bit of some extra umph on when it was that he had said that it was that she was in fact a girl, all at the exact same time too, all at once, at that.
As it was smart what it was that Xavier was in fact doing just now, all at the exact same time as well, if it was that I was not going to lie to my self either, at that. If it was that it was not due to the fact that it was, all at the exact same time too. That this was just high school basketball, and this was not like it was that NBA...
This was in fact a girl that had in fact taken a fairly nasty fall, all at the exact same time too. As well as a nasty hit from a guy that was probably over a foot taller than her, all at the exact same time too, at that. As I kind of felt like we needed to be more worried about her, rather than it is that we needed to be worried about the kid that had done it to her.
As I kind of just seemed to join where it was that the rest of my team mates were in fact going on over to, all at the exact same time too. As it was that I did in fact just seem to start to hear the ref begin to start to yell back, all at the exact same time too. As it was that I felt like I could not help but to listen as to just what it was that he did in fact feel like he even needed to say, all at the exact same time too.
"Number 23! You're out of here!" He seemed to have yelled at the top of his lungs, all at the exact same time too, all at once. As I kind of just cracked a little bit of a smile to my self, all at the exact same time as well. As I knew that it was the other teams star player already gone, and they had yet to score a single point, at that.
But the smile did in fact seem to go away from my face, all at the exact same time too, all at once, at that, never the less. As I just then did in fact just seem to start to all of the sudden get my mind on just what it was that was in fact in front of me, all at the exact same time as well. As I saw that it was that Alissa was starting to get her self up a bit, all at the exact same time too, all at once, at that.
As I was glad to see that it was that she seemed to be some what fine, and she did in fact just seem to be some what okay, at that. As I let out a little bit of a gentle sigh of some sort of relief to my self, all at once. As I just then in the end, all at the exact same time too, all at once. I then did in fact just seem to start to see that it was that her boy friend, Zaire, was in fact already right on her, at that.
As he was in fact going to be the first one that it was that was in fact going to go right on ahead and speak towards her, all at once. As I of course, did in fact just seem to start to turn my head on over towards him. And I just then did in fact begin to start to listen as to just what it was that Zaire did in fact feel like he even needed to say on over towards her, all at once.
"Are you okay babe? Do we need to take your out? How badly are you hurt?" He said to her, as it was that his eyes were in fact very wide, as soon as it was that he had in fact just said as to just what it was that he had in fact even just said, all at the exact same time too, all at once, at that.
As it was clear to me that it was that he was in fact actually scared for her. And that it was that he was in fact worried for her, all at the exact same time too, at that. As it almost made me want to feel warm in side. As to the fact that it was cute to me that it was that they did in fact have a little bit of some high school love, at that.
How ever, I kind of just seemed to have stopped my self from doing as such a thing like that, all at the exact same time too, all at once. As in the end, I just then did in fact just seem to get my mind and my focus on Alissa. As I knew that Zaire was right, and we needed to make sure that it was that she was in fact okay, at that.
As it had in fact been a pretty hard hit from a very big and strong guy, all at the exact same time too, at that. As it was that he had not been paying her any sort of mind what so ever, all at the exact same time too. Which meant that this could be even worse for her, all at the exact same time too.
How ever, as it was that I had in fact just seemed to have stood there and stared at her for just a few seconds more, at that. That was when I just then did in fact just seem to start to see that it was that she did in fact just seem to start to roll her eyes on over towards Zaire, all at the exact same time too, all at once. As it was that she did in fact just seem to start to speak right back on over towards him, all at once.
As it was that I did in fact just seem to start to realize that it was that she was in fact just now seeming to have started to do as such a thing like that, all at the exact same time too. That was when I just seemed to blink my eyes a few times, all at once. As I knew that I was still worried about her, and that I was in fact paying my full attention to her just now.
The same could be said for the rest of the team, all at the exact same time as well, at that. As, as it was that she had in fact just seemed to have started to notice as to just that it had in fact been the case, at that. That was when she just then did in fact just seem to start to continue to smile, and speak towards us all. As I of course, along with every one else, did in fact just seem to start to listen as to just what ever it was that she did in fact feel like she even needed to say back, all at the exact same time too, at that.
"Relax Zaire... You always push me a lot harder than he did..." She said, as she had a big smile on her face, all at the exact same time too, all at once. As I was a little bit lost as to just what it was that she had even just said. As it seemed like it was that she had in fact just exposed her boy friend for abusing her, all at the exact same time too.
My eyes did in fact just seem to grow a little bit wide, all at the exact same time too, as it was that I saw that for some odd reason or another. She did in fact still have a big smile on her face as soon as it was that she had in fact just said, at that. As it was that it seemed like she might have meant some thing completely different than it was that I had thought that she had meant by what it was that she had in fact even just said.
As it was that I had in fact just so happened to have stood there and stared for just a little bit more time, all at the exact same time too. That was when I just then did in fact just seem to start to see that it was that that Zaire was in fact blushing a little bit, all at the exact same time too. And as well as the fact that it just seemed to be that every one else had seemed to have under stood as to just what it was that she had in fact just said.
As every one here did in fact just seem to be laughing, all at the exact same time too, as it was clear to me that they all found it funny, all at the exact same time too. I was still quite a bit lost as to just what it was that was in even going on just now, if it was that I was not going to lie to my self either, never the less, at that.
How ever, I just then did in fact just seem to start to hear the familiar voice of Xavier, as it was that he then did in fact just seem to start to speak up from right behind us. As it was that I kind of just seemed to blink my eyes a few times, all at once. As the fun did in fact just seem to start to go away, all at the exact same time too.
As I could just tell that based off of the tone of voice that it was that he did in fact just so happen to have just now, at that. That it was that he was not amused as every one else was, all at the exact same time too. As I kind of just then did in fact just seem to start to go right on ahead, all at the exact same time as well, at that. And I just then did in fact turn my head on over towards him, at that.
As it was that I had in fact just seemed to have done as such a thing like that, all at the exact same time too. That was when I just seemed to stare at him with his eyes wide. As it was that it did not seem to matter all too much to him at all just now. As it was clear that his eyes were in fact on Alissa, all at the exact same time too.
I was a little bit lost as to just what it was that was even going on just now, if it was that I was not going to lie to my self either, at that. As in the end, I just then did in fact just seem to let out a bit of a soft sigh to my self, all at once, as well. As I knew that it was that I was now beginning to start to pay my full attention on to just what ever it was that he did in fact feel like he even needed to say to her just now, all at the exact same time too.
As it was that he had in fact just seemed to have stared at her right in to her eyes for just a few seconds more time, all at once, at that. That was when he just then did in fact just seem to start to continue to speak to her. As I of course, did in fact just seem to start to listen as to just what ever it was that he did in fact feel like he even needed to say on over towards her just now, any ways, never the less.
