Miles POV (17)
" Are you excited ? your first game is tonight !!" Saiyor asked smiling and I laughed at her.
" yea i guess." i said and she straight faced me.
" what ?" i said laughing but she wasn't laughing.
" your supposed to be excited !! everybody's going to be cheering you on." she said and I nodded my head.
" Mr. Anderson and Ms.Jones shouldn't you two be doing work?" Our teacher asked and we nodded getting back to it but laughed once we looked at each other.
" I did not know your brother could ball" i said and she shrugged.
" i ain't know either, whenever we went to the park i'd always mind my business playing on the swings or playground with the twins while he was off on the field or the courts somewhere.
" oh ok, ion rlly feel like playing tonight anyways." i said messing with her.
" All the fans , the cheerleaders , the thrill of the game , aren't you at least excited to hit the court again?" she said and I nodded thinking about it.
" you the only fan i'm worried about honestly, I better hear you cheering the loudest too !" I said but she made a guilty looking face making me return a questionable look.
" about that....." she said playing with her finger stalling.
" I have to go to work and my boss isn't letting me take off tonight. I'm so sorry I know you wanted me to be there and I really wanted to come." She said pouting and I sighed getting a lil mad but kissing her cheek still making us both smile.
" it alright pretty , you better be at my next one tho' or we fightin !" I bucked at her and she laughed.
" i am , i promise !" she said holding out her pinky. I connected mines with her and she kissed it making me laugh.
" you so corny"

" Aye bruh coach called time out, Huddle up ! " Saint said and we all jogged over to the circle.
We was in Quarter change after 4 head to head quarters against our rival school. The score was 54-60 and it wasn't looking good for us. It was 5 minuets on the clock and Half of the bench was tired looking like they was ready to quit.
" Y'all boys gotta hustle this win! What we look like loosing our first game of the season to some wannabes? man tighten up !" coach smith said gripping his clipboard mad as hell before walking off shaking his head.
" alright let's hit em with a one , two from saint , stephan stay open , charles get that rebound and miles keep your eyes on the ball. Absolutely No Free Throws or Fouls !" Coach logan said and we all nodded.
" Wooo Let's go number 9 !!" i heard and looked up seeing saiyor in the crowd waving with her friends around her. I smiled waving a lil so coach couldn't see but kept my smile on my face, Knowing now I really had to show out.
" thank you baby , imma get that number after we beat these nigga you just wait. Witcho fine ass...." the boy on the other team said and he was that same dude who was flirting with her at the football game.
Ref blew the whistle and automatically I stop the ball dribbling it down the court about to shoot a 3 but passed it off to stephen when I left ole boy behind me about to block it. Stephen shot it up and made that 3.
57-60 - 50 seconds on the clock
They offense was good so charles couldn't get the rebound. Luckily , Saint caught up stole it took it to the hoop and dunking it.
58-60 - 10 seconds left
" Alright miles this you !" coach said and me and saint switched spots then instead of watching the ball I watched the player seeing his eyes shift telling the player behind me where to go.
He kept trying to back me up toward the goal so he didn't half to pass the ball. But , I blocked the shot taking it to our side about to shoot. But happy feet jumped in front of me. I broke his ankles with a one two before I hit the backboard with a 3.
61-60 - that's game !
" and cinco ranch wins with the final score 61-60"
" LETS GO !!!!!" saint yelled dapping me up.
" That's what I'm talking about !" Coach said dapping me up and patting my shoulder. I ain't even head to the locker room yet I just went in the crowd dapping all my folks up.
I felt a pair of hands wrap around me and I turned seeing brittany bitting her lips with her arms wrapped around me.

I kept looking around for Sai until I spotted her jogging towards me after she congratulated and hugged saint. " Congrats Super Star !!" She said hugging me.
" Thank you and I thought you wasn't coming?" I asked and she smiled.
" I was always coming I just wanted it to be a surprise." she said and I smiled hugging her again.
" well I'm glad you came." I said and she started blushing a lil bit.
" can I get a kiss ?" i asked and she side eyed me shaking her head no.
" unt unt yo fan seems like she'll blow a fuse " she said nodding her head towards brittany who's rolling her eyes mad as hell.
