Jaceyon
"Aye pass the ball!" I yelled at my teammate.
"Defense..Defense." the crowd cheered.
Paul Banks passed me the ball and I turned and threw the ball in the air as soon as the buzzer sounded. My heart pounded and it felt like time was in slow motion.
"Swoosh." The crowd chanted as the ball made it into the net.
The crowd cheered as we won 45 to 50. As my teammates hugged the only person I could see was Cyndia making her way over to me with Chelsea.
"Con-"
"Congratulations baby." Candy congratulated interrupting Cyn.
Cyn just stopped in her tracks and turned back around. I looked at Candy and in all honesty I couldn't go off. I just moved out of her hug and walked to the locker rooms.
Cyndia
I sat in the gym waiting with Jamie on Lucky and Chris. We we're suppose to go back to my house and watch the new episode of Power.
"There they go!" Jamie announced.
"Congratulations!" I said doing a corny dance.
"Thank ya." They both thanked.
Chris grabbed Jamie and they were swapping spit.
"I'm proud of you Jace." I admitted as we hugged.
"Preciate' it."
We just stared at each other. His eyes were so sexy.
"Can we go pick up these wings?" Chris blurted.
"Um..Yea let's go." Lucky said after taking one more glance into my eyes.
When we got to my house the show was just coming on.
"Suuny where is the cups?" Jamie asked.
"In the cabinet over the sink." I said going upstairs to change.
"C hurry up so she can press play." I heard Chris yell.
I ran downstairs putting my cardigan over my tank. I sat on the floor with Lucky while Chris and Jamie snuggled up.
"Come on Damn." Lucky said throwing a pillow at Jamie.
The show was so good and while we watched it I got a text.
JaceBoo I hope you know me and Candy broke up a while back.
I looked at him and he was looking at me.
Cyndia Yea Ik... Where did that come from?
JaceBooI just don't want you to hate a nigga.
I slightly smirked then laid my head on his shoulder.
AfterTheShow
"You lying bro." Lucky said as they talked about when they were in kindergarten.
"Luck, bro you know she was mine. I gave her the crayons with the sharpener." Chris explained.
Me and Jamie died of laughter as we sat around the table eating.
"Bruh you stole them." Lucky said serious.
"Chris you stealing?" I asked with a giggle.
"Naw. Listen this how I put it. If a nigga go to the corner store for some damn gum and pay 3.54 before I leave, I already payed for them damn crayons." He explained.
Lucky laughed and I got up to clean the dishes.
"Yo let me help." I heard Lucky say from behind me.
He came and stood beside me.
"Naw I got it."
He grabbed the dish in the rack and put them up in the cabinet.
I looked at him and smiled.
"Whats funny?" He asked.
I shook my head. I was starting to like Jaceyon as more than a friend and I really don't know why.
"Hey Jaceyon!" I heard my uncle say walking into the kitchen.
"Wassup Unc." He greeted as they gave a bro hug.
"Ginger why you got this boy washing dishes?" My uncle asked.
Embarrassed was an understatement.
"Uncle Lewis." I whined as Lucky chuckled.
"How she get that name?" Lucky asked as we finished the dishes.
My uncle smiled and got a beer out the fridgerator.
And this ends my life.
"When she was young we had this picnic and we had some gingers on the table and Cyndia took a huge hunk out of one and she cried cause it was so strong and since then we call her Ginger." My uncle explained.
Lucky shook his head.
"Was it good?" He joked.
"No." I pouted.
My uncle laughed and they followed me to the living room.
"So son how was your game?" My uncle asked.
"We won."
"And tell him how you made game point." I said.
"Well like she said I made game point."
My uncle nodded in satisfaction.
"Where's Chris and Jamie?" I asked.
"Oh I ran into them leaving with Chris Mom." My uncle answered.
"Okay well ima head on out." Lucky told us.
"Okay son be safe." My uncle said as they hugged again.
"Let me walk you out." I said getting up.
"Okay I'll see you Mr.Brooks." Lucky said before heading to the door.
"Well Um I'll call you when I get home." Lucky promised.
"OK be safe Jaceyon." I suggested.
He nodded. And kissed my jaw.
"Goodnight." He said going down the stairs.
Goodnight.
