I don't know how some people seem to forget that I used to be on a tv show as a kid, but you'd think when I hang out with Sabrina a lot people could connect the dots. Or look it up.

But it's okay.

I put a clause in my contract that I could take off whenever the red carpet for the movie I'm in was. You might be asking a question right now.

Like, Daisy, how did you manage to film a whole movie when you play basketball full time?

Cause I'm a fucking boss. That's how.

Well we actually filmed it during my off season last year. We were definitely on a time crunch. But they wanted me for the film so they made it work.

It's a romance movie...

Uh, and you'll never guess who my Co-star is.

Jenna Ortega. You know that meme that goes around and it says Jenna only stars in movies where she kisses girls? Well she's definitely not breaking that stereotype. But yeah, it's a cute little romance movie and Sabrina even makes a star appearance.

Our two characters attend a festival and somehwo they worked out a contract with Sab to sing in it. Anyways, the movie is pretty good and right now I'm at the premiere. And man there are a lot of people here.

Jenna got here before me and I've been looking for her for about ten minutes already.

You're probably thinking man, how is she so good at basketball and acting? She's living the life. Must be straight out of a book huh?

That's neither here nor there.

I finally spot Jenna and I do a little victory dance in my head.

She looks up and immediately starts heading towards me. I love her so much.

She throws her arms around my neck and pulls me into a hug. We haven't seen each other in a while so I'm completely on board.

Honestly I've been waiting for this premiere just so I could see her and Sab. They're my girls.

"Hey sweetheart. I've missed you so fucking much."

"I've missed you more I bet. Did I tell you I'm planning some time off for me and want to come see you later this winter?"

My eyes widen a little. This is quite literally the best news since basketball became a thing. Or like since bread was.

Whichever you connect with more I guess.

"Shut the fuck up. Send me the details immediately. I'm in dire need of some girl time."

Which is so true. In case you haven't noticed I might be surrounded by girls but I need my girls. You know?

"I will as soon as I leave this place. Can you believe people are finally going to get to see this? It feels like a fever dream."

"I know. Especially with the media hounding you about your sexuality. Like please back the fuck off man."

"I know right. I feel like Kit. I don't get how people think a strangers life is their business. Where did I say it was okay to harass me about that shit."

"People will be people. Let's just do the carpet and get inside. My feet really need me to take these heels off."

She nods her head in understanding. See. That's why I love her. She just gets it like that.

We walk through the crowd of people hand in hand so we don't get separated.

Finally we pose in a few spots and head inside. The fans are lined up and it's crazy.
