Boys & Basketball (BL)

5 (Halloween Special)

A/N: I trashed the last chapter cause I didn't like it. It felt rushed and unauthentic to my characters for some reason. So no they haven't confessed yet and no they won't do it that soon. I want to keep the tension for a few more chapters. But don't worry. They'll fuck before they confess. Also no, the bestfriend's love interest hasn't been revealed yet but if you leave it to me, I'll damn we'll force it to be the professor one way or another.

A/N: this is not hot smut sexy halloween special but like actual scary stuff. its funny tho.

Also this one's a double update so make sure to check the next one too.

Quick Guide for Basketball Positions:

Center (Kazuya): Plays near the basket, focuses on rebounding, blocking shots and scoring inside. Typically tallest in the team. Mostly dunks and layups (scores closer to the hoop)

Point guard (Brooklyn): Lead for offense, sets up plays and distributes the ball.

Power forward (Keith, Blake): Plays near the basket, focuses on rebounding, inside scoring and defending. Can dunk, shoot from mid range or the three pointer line (can score from the outside as well as inside-near the hoop).

Shooting guard (Garry): Self explanatory, focuses on shooting and scoring.

Small forward (Riley): Plays both inside and outside, scoring, defense and rebounding. Kind of like a jack of all cards.

PS: this chapter is set around the time before Keith had seen stuff happening in night with Kazuya and Brooklyn lol. Kinda just shows they're college students and make stupid decisions.

"Guys, are you sure this is a good idea?" Riven's voice floated from the backseat of the car, reconsidering her decision.

"Shut up, Riv." Kazuya shot back as he made another turn, his eyes sparkling with a mix of mischief and excitement.

Believe it or not, Riven was Kazuya's best friend. She studied sports engineering, hell-bent on designing equipment to improve athletic performance, while Kazuya pursued aerospace engineering to fulfill his dad's wish that he either become an engineer, a doctor, or disowned.

But that's a story for another day.

Since they were in similar classes, they became friends quickly.

Riven had believed she'd bagged him for the team, and in return, he'd asked her to be their team manager because of her passion for basketball. She had agreed.

To this day, she didn't know Kazuya had a sports scholarship.

"Nah Kazu bro, hear her out. Like we could be heading to Blake's party right now." Garry's voice rang out, squished between Keith and Riven. The shooting guard was a tall man, with arms that were built like a gorilla but lord help, he was a pussy.

"Why, you scared? And for the fifth time, stop calling me that." Kazuya couldn't keep a straight face, especially around Garry, who had joined the team during the same tryouts. They were closer friends than Kazuya would ever admit.

"Of course not! Why would I be scared?" Garry's nervous laughter echoed in the car, reverberating off. "It's not like there will be a ghost there, haha."

"Or ghosts. Maybe. They say they hear people's screams at night. Apparently there are no lights either, so I wouldn't be optimistic," Brooklyn added from the passenger seat, his monotone voice cutting through the tension.
