Cam's girls, AAU team tryouts starts in about thirty- five minutes. To start the day of good, I need my Starbucks. Yes, It's not good to drink coffee before practice as what you'd think, but a refresher sounds is what a need. A nice chilled one.
I stood in line on the side with Nelson to ask if he or the guys wanted something.
"Oo, may I have the Caramel Ribbon Crunch Frappe, please!" He smiled on the other end of the line.
"Mhm. And Cam?" I asked. "One sec. Cam, Avery's asking if you want something from Starbucks!" Nelson shouted across the gym, grabbing most of the girls attention. "Mocha Frappuccino, please!"
"He said Mocha Frappuccino. And Lavar, just get his old ass a black coffee." He made me let out a chuckle.
"Did I just hear my name come out of your bitch ass mouth?" I heard Lavar's voice fade in closer to the phone. "Shut your bitch ass up!" Nelson shouted back. "Avery's asking if you want something from Starbucks." Calmly, his tone changed.
"Hey, Avery!" Lavar exclaimed to the phone, and I returned the same energy.
"The Ice Chai Tea Latte, please. Thank you!" He shouted. "You're welcome, Lavar." I chuckled. "Does Ray want something?"
Nelson looked up from the phone to see Ray, the camera man for RWE standing in from of him. "Nah, I'm good. Thank you though!"
"Okay. I'll be there in a bit. Bye, Nels."
"Bye, Ave! Thank you, love you." I heard him say but then hung up since I was next in line.
Did I hear that right?

My mother and I walked into the gym to see many girls standing on and around the court. "Avery!" I heard a familiar voice but I just couldn't help myself from the disbelief of how much people were here for tryouts.
How am I going to get on the team?
I looked to my side and it was Nelson.
"Hey, Nels! Here." I handed him the Frappuccino he'd ask for. "Thank you!" He shot that grin with a light tone of pink at me.
"Avery?" His head titled to the left. "Huh? Oh yeah, tryouts! Where's Cam and Lavar?" I let out an awkward chuckle.
"I think over there," Nelson pointed to a group of girls surrounding two, tall men. "Come on." He gently put my hand in his and dragged me to the ensemble. "Avery! glad to see you at tryouts.." Cam raised an eyebrow, and looked up from Nelson and I's hands interlocked. Nelson and I chuckled, and in sync wiped out palms. "Anyways. Thank you!" Cam grabbed his Frappuccino from the drink carrier. "You're welcome." I smiled then laughed with Nelson.
