Today, Matthew had a basketball game and so did I ... I was in the locker room ..

" I don't like these uniforms," Zoey said.

" Same it doesn't screams me, but who cares , how do I look?" I asked twirling around..

" Perfect, what about me, you think KJ, will yay or nay?" She asked.

" Middle," I shrugged.

Coach T laughed, " Y'all a trip but it's time to get outta here, we play in 25 minutes,"

We prayed and said our little chant before heading out...

We walked out, " Full house tonight," I told Zoey..

" Ya think, let's go by the boys," she said.

" But ,"

" No Buts let's go," she said dragging me over there..

She went sit on her boyfriends lap..

I spoke to everyone, and gave my favorite cousin a hug, " Hey!"

" Sup, " he said talking to his girlfriend that was also on my team..

I sat in right next to Matt, " Hey Bestfriend," I said leaning my head on his shoulder.

" Hey Bestfriend, your nervous, again?" He asked.

" I'm perfectly fine, now.." I said smiling.

" Of course you are," he said plucking my forehead.

" Ow ugly!" I said punching his arm.

" Y'all dating?" My ex Andre , who's on the team asked.

I rolled my eyes, " Nope, just friends, obviously you heard us say that," I said.

" Well yea, just saying, y'all would be cute!" He said.

" We all have been saying that !"

" Nahh, she ain't ready for this white boy loving!" He said hugging me.

I smacked my lips, " Whatever you say Matthew,"

Spoiling the moment, his mom must've spotted us hugging and what not...

" Aye, ladies and gentlemen, not allowed on school ground, girls over there! Now!"

We all mumbled, " Play well," he said

" You too," I said, passing my Andre who I which tripped over, and ended up falling into his lap..

Only thing you know, my coach blew her whistle...

" She's not allowed in the game today!" Mrs. Mckibben told Coach T.

"What?" I asked.

" You disobeyed, you serve time off court,"

" You have to be kidding me right?" I laughed.

" Nope not at all, honey bun, sorry," she smiled.

" Sorry my ass," I mumbled going by my team.

Yes I understand that I'm a preachers daughter and what now but a person can only take so much....

I was sitting on the sideline for 3 quarters, I looked at Coach...

" Coach just these last 5 minutes, we're losing 25-30, please!"

She sighed, " Yes, Tanielle, your out, go Lily," that's what she calls me.

I ran in and the crowd instantly clapped..

I went into position, I play close attention to the ball..

At the very moment I stole the ball and passed it to Zoey.

She dribbled down the court and ended up making a layup.

"27-30!" Someone yelled, " 3 Minutes!"

The other team took the ball out...
I was out waiting for our team to get a steal, which we rebounded the ball.

" Ball! Ball!" I yelled.

Taylor passed me the ball, by them we had 20 seconds on the clock, "Shoot!"

I ended up making a three but a girl on the other fouling me at 5 seconds so I can shoot two free throws for the win..

" Come on ! You got this Dyl!" My team cheered.

I ended up missing the first one but making the second one!

" 31-30!"

Our team cheered and the boys joined us on the court, as we both celebrated our big wins!

" You did yo shit!" My cousin said. " I taught you well, I'm so proud of myself!"

" Mane shut up!" I said.

Someone tapped me on my shoulder, I turned around, " Look who kicked ass!" Matthew said.

" Me?! It was just good sportsmanship, but looka you Mr. BuzzerBeater!" I said hugging him..

He picked me up and twirled me around, I looked at him and for the first time, when we looked in eachothers eyes we finally connected...
