mya's pov 
i woke up to the sound of my alarm blaring, 

i groaned shutting of my alarm and dragging my ass out of bed, looking at my phone. 

it was 9:50 am. the girls had practice in 15 minutes. HOW THE FUCK AM I MEANT TO REACH THE ARENA IN 15 MINUTES?  

there was also a few notifications that came through my phone, and the only one that stood out to me was none other than paige bueckers. 

paige

paige
morning, we have an appointment at 9:55 right? 
u prob still sleeping, but see you later. ❤

me 
SHIT IM SORRY I OVERSLEPT, I DIDNT CHECK THE TIME. 
ILL BE THERE AS FAST AS I CAN 

paige 

its aight ma, u goodi could pick u up if u want?
 im near your dormitory anyway

me
oh my god youre a saviour
 i'll be down in 5. 

paige
take your time ma, i have patience for u. 

i let out an almost inaudible squeal at that. god this girl was really making me fall for her harder every damn day. 

i liked her message as i started getting ready, brushing my teeth and then putting on a uconn shirt and some shorts. 

i then went out of my dorm as quickly as i could, heading down to the ground floor. 

upon looking at the drop off entrance, i saw a mercedes there. most probably belonged to paige because of her numerous sponsorships and stuff. but still she was a college student. how the heck does one afford that much? 

the car: (i had a hard time thinking which car she should drive)

i made my way to where her car was, checking whether paige was inside, and she was

i made my way to where her car was, checking whether paige was inside, and she was. 

i got into the passenger seat, buckling up. 

"sleep good i assume?" she questioned. 

"mhm" i hummed. "but didnt expect it to be too good until i fell asleep." 

"i feel you, you dont mind if i speed up a little do you?" 

i shook my head "not at all." 

"alright then." she said, speeding up.

we shared a few moments of silence and just listening to paige's spotify until she pulled up and the arena, parking at a spot that said her name on a sign. 

"woah, you guys have your own parking lots?" i exclaimed. it was actually really cool that the players had parking spots allocated to them. 

"yeah, most of us do. except those without cars of course." she said getting out of the car and then running over to the passenger side before i could. cute. 

she opened the door, and i thanked her before jumping out of the car due to the height. i then turned around and looked at the car. 

"you like what you see?" she gestured to the car. 

"mhm" i nodded. 

then, a smirk appeared on her face. "you'll be agreeing to the same question in a few hours." she teased. 

i could feel my cheeks getting rushed as i left her at her car, walking into the court where some people had already started warming up. 

i could see nika and carter flirting for understandable reasons. 

paige then walked in with her practice attire, her eyes landing on me as she smirked because of her little comment earlier. 

i mouthed 'fuck you' to her and her smirk only got bigger as she continued walking to where her teammates were. she pulled out her phone, typing something i think. 

then my phone buzzed, signaling a message and i figured it was from paige. 

paige 

paige
i know you want to.

she texted, her reiterating her point to me swearing at her. 

me
i will block you.

paige
you could, but you wouldnt.

i switched my phone off at that message. i wanted to murder this girl so bad. at the same time, i wanted her so bad. 

geno then signaled the start of practice with his whistle, while me and carter stood at the side, assessing everyone's athletics. 

however, paige had to be cheeky of course. occasionally pulled her shirt up infront of me, flexing her abs, and flexing her forearm muscles and biceps as well. 

i did flip her off occasionally and when i did, she would just smirk, going back to what she was doing. this was definitely unprofessional of me and her, but she was really pushing me to wits end. 

practice ended not long later, and geno called everyone to the center of the court, because he had an announcement. 

i stood in between carter and paige, paige somehow pulling me closer to her, and i could tell she was enjoying it. 

geno then spoke up. "at 4 pm today, the director of sports is hosting an aseembly later in the auditorium. all coaches, staff and players are to be there. both men and women from all sports."
