It was the next morning, Paige woke up, the nausea washing over her. For a moment she couldn't remember anything, the feeling of sickness overwhelming her. After a few minutes the feeling went away but a new feeling replaced it. She was giddy. Memories of her and Brianna caused her stomach to twist and turn, but in a good way.
Practice was in the evening today from 7-10:30pm because the girls had classes during the day. Paige only had one class today at 1, so she laid back down trying to compose herself, Brianna's face was engraved into her mind, but she wasn't complaining.
Brianna woke up, got ready and left the dorm, leaving Jules to sleep. She sure needed it. Brianna needed to go see her professor so she could get all the equipment she needed for the documentary: a camera, tripod, some mics and a few lights. She wanted to grab the lights just in case she ever needed them, but the court was well lit so she wouldn't need it for today. She hopped into her car, she wanted to walk but then realised she wouldn't be able to carry anything back.
Once she had got her equipment she headed to the local coffee shop, Carmen's coffee, she wanted to get some coffee for her and Jules and maybe some breakfast sandwiches. "Hello, what would you like to order?" A girl asked, with a smile on her face. "Hi, could I get a hot americanno with a shot of vanilla, an iced caramel latte and two breakfast sandwiches to go please" Brianna replied, one thing about Brianna is that she was an iced caramel latte lover for life, it had been her go to drink since she was 14. "Yes of course, could I get a name for that order please?" The girl asked "Yes, it's Brianna"
As Brianna turned around she saw Aubrey, "oh hey Aubrey" she began to speak. "Oh my god Brianna, just the girl I was looking for, well not actually but I think you can help me. Paige said she wanted a coffee but I don't know what she likes, do you have any ideas? I was going to just get her an iced caramel latte but i don't know" Aubrey spat out, "oh no, whatever you do, don't get her an iced caramel latte, she hates those things, I never understood why, their my favs. But her favourite coffee is an iced vanilla Frappuccino with an extra pump of vanilla. Don't ever forget the extra pump, because she can tell. It's kinda freaky actually." Brianna rambled on, not even realising how much she has exposed about her and Paige. Aubrey's eyebrow raised for a second before pretending everything was fine. "Noted, thanks Brianna."
Shortly after, Brianna got her order and went back to her car, leaving Aubrey to grow suspicious about how Brianna knows all this about Paige, she would definitely bring it up later to the team.
Brianna opened the door to the bedroom, revealing a half awake Jules laid in bed in silence. "I've got a surprise for you!" Brianna said in a chirpy voice as she placed the coffee in jules's hand and the sandwich on her lap. "I love you bri, if you got on one knee right now, I would say yes." Brianna giggled at her comment, before returning to her bed and tucking into her sandwich. Both girls ate in silence, moans releasing out of both their mouths at different times in reaction to how delicious the sandwich was.
Brianna had left all the equipment in her car, so it was ready to be taken to the gym later on.
Aubrey arrived back to the team's dorm, Paige was sat on the stool in the kitchen. She was wearing some purple basketball shorts and a black Nike sports bra. The rest of the girls joined the table once they realised Aubrey had come back with the goods. Aubrey handed out everyone's orders until she finally got to Paige's. "So I didn't know what coffee you liked, so I was going to get you an iced caramel latte." She paused, "oh I hate those, but it's fine I'll drink it." "No it's okay, I ran into Brianna and she said the same thing, told me you hated them and she told me what to get you instead." Aubrey said as she handed Paige her drink. Paige took a sip, her eyes began to sparkle. "An iced vanilla Frappuccino with an extra shot of vanilla!" She said in an excited tone. "Thanks Aubrey, I love you" "Don't thank me, Brianna was the one that told me" Aubrey returned. The rest of the team glared around at each other, all wondering the same thing. How did Brianna know so much about Paige and knew Paige's order exactly? It wasn't really a conversation opener. "So uhm, how did Brianna know your order?" Aubrey asked, the rest of the team hummed, wondering the same thing. "I don't remember you mentioning going to get coffee with her, I would have remembered" Aubrey continued. "I've gotten coffee hundreds of times with her." Paige paused before resuming. "We went everyday in junior year" with that the whole team went silent. Paige wasn't a secretive person, but it was clear to the whole team that Paige wasn't telling them something about Brianna. All of a sudden Azzi gasped as if she had just seen a ghost, "shit, how hadn't I realised this before, Paige. Brianna. She was the girl, the girl you liked. The one you were obsessed with. You stopped talking about her in senior year, so I figured you had moved on. But clearly not." The whole team broke into a sea of gasps, all so shocked at this new information, all except Nika and KK. "Well the cat's out of the hat now." Paige responded before heading back to her own room, leaving the whole team with their jaws on the floor. But Paige couldn't help but grin, she liked that the team knew about her and Brianna, even though she never lied about anything, she had just withheld the truth. So once they had all found out, it felt like a big weight off her shoulders. Paige sat on her bed, went into her contacts, scrolled down and pressed on a familiar name.
