Jasmin sat in the library catching up on her current book. She was reading a story and the young woman couldn't put the book down. It was very intriguing. Before she got a chance to figure who killed who, someone sat down next to her.
"What are you reading?"
"Finding Christine." She smirked.
"Hm. Interesting. Well, I notice that you come to this library all the time. I think you're really cute. What's your name?"
Jasmin sighed and looked up from her book. Her eyes widened when she saw who was in front of her. This guy was hella cute she thought.
"Damn you're cute." She said out loud.
He laughed.
"Thank you mama. I'm Karl."
She blushed heavily.
"Did I say that out loud? I'm sorry.. I'm Jasmin.."
"Ah, it's okay cutie," He scooted closer to her.
"So tell me about you."
"Well, I'm very athletic, kinda nerdy, and I love to read."
"That's nice, that's nice."
"What about you?"
"I love to play basketball, I'm and NBA player-"
"Wait, what?"
"I'm in the NBA."
"And you randomly came up to me?!"
"What? I see you around here all the time and I thought you were so beautiful I had to say hello." He smiled.
Once again, Jasmin found herself blushing.
"Thank you.. Karl."
While they were engaged into their conversation, the Librarian came their way again.
"Didn't I tell you two to be quiet?!"
"Oh, I'm-"
"No, I don't wanna hear it, get out."
Karl looked over at Jasmin and they went outside.
"Sorry about that."
She was laughing so hard she was in tears.
"It's nothing! That woman doesn't like me, she's always finding a reason to yell at me."
"Ah okay! I have a question Jasmin."
"Yes?"
"Would you like to come to my game tonight?"
Her heart dropped.
"Huh? Me, come to your game?"
"Yeah, why not?"
"It's just- I- I don't know."
He grabbed her hand.
"It'll be fun. Come through."
"Alright.." She smiled.
"If you want, I'll pick you up early and take you. I'll even show you around."
"Okay then, that'll be great!"

"This is Zach, Andrew, and Ricky. You guys, this is Jasmin."
"Hi." She said shyly.
"Nice to meet you!" Zach smiled.
"Same to you."
Jasmin slowly turned to Karl and whispered.
"I have to run to the restroom really quick.. I'll be back."
Andrew goofily looked at Karl.
"I saw the way you was looking at that girl. You want the cookies don't you?"
"What? No-"
"Karl got himself a baddie! Shawty is a 10, he want her!" Zach yelled.
"No I don't y'all!"
"I bet 5 dollars Karl will smash tonight."
"Okay, too far. We just met today, it's not even like that."
"Whatever. You like her."
Karl just laughed and waited on Jasmin. Once she came back from the bathroom, he showed her to her seat. The young woman cheered him on and the Timberwolves won the game 124 to 109. The two hung out after the game and decided to meet up the next day. Jasmin never would've thought she'd meet a basketball player.
