I play bowling so I thought it would be a good idea to write something about it.. also it's the only sport I actually know what goes on so yeaahh.. and pretend you're in college :)

The scrimmage didn't even count as real game. Somehow, this college team wanted to take up a match again your team; either way, it would be extra practice anyways.

The teams were set up two groups of three people, girls vs. girls, guys vs. guys. The names were set up on the tv screen above, and the coached told everyone to start. Pressing 'OK', practice was on. There was only 10 minutes, which meant 10 minutes to calm down. This doesn't even count.. you didn't know why you were scared.

Maybe it was because Adam came to watch. He would always come to your games to support you. Sometimes, you wanted to impress him, but some of the pressure would get to you and you'll end up throwing the ball too far left.

Practice was over, and you kind of calmed down. You turned around to the audience watching you from the second level. You found Adam, grinning at you as you blushed slightly.

Turning back into the lanes, the score board was empty. Fuck, you were the first to bowl.

You picked up your ball with some confidence. You remembered everything your coach taught you and you walked up to the line and threw your ball down the lane.

You knocked nine pins down, the tenth one wiggled back and forth, taunting you. You groaned slightly, going back to the ball return waiting to make the first spare of the game.

*time skip*

The total score was 303 of your team. The other was 320 of the opponent. All you needed was at least a strike and an 8 spare frame. The pressure was on you.

It was the tenth frame already, and you either get 2 rolls or maybe a 3rd if the 2nd was completed. You prayed for that strike.

You took your position, taking a breath and calming your nerves. You looked at the pins, then the arrows, and back and forth. The whole audience was quiet now.

You took your first step towards your lane, then your second...third...forth...

You threw your ball. The quietness of the alley made it seem like the ball was taking forever to hit the pins. It wasn't a perfect throw, but you had hope.

The ball hit the pins in the correct spot, but only nine pins seem to have fallen. That ten pin in the corner wiggled back and forth. Your heart dropped, but you were thankful you had a strong arm.

Because that ten pin ended up falling and you got a strike!! Your team cheered and the audience clapped. It was an amazing feeling.

*smol time skip*

After shaking hands with the opponent and cheering your voices off, you grabbed your equipment and carried your bag.

You went to Adam who was smiling so fucking big it made you so happy.

"(Y/N) that strike was awesome!!!" Adam exclaimed while you put your bag down at your feet.

"Thanks!! And did you see that tenth pin? I was about to throw myself down that lane." You chuckled combing your hair back. Adam nodded excitedly.

"But it totally fell down!!" "Yeah it did!!" You and Adam laughed for a little.

"I'm so glad to have you as a girlfriend." Adam suddenly commented. You raised an eyebrow at him.

"What? I get to date one of the most talented bowlers on the team!!" You rolled your eyes giving Adam a quick hug.

"I'm not that talented." You scoffed playfully. You picked up your bags getting ready to leave.

"Yeah, tell that to me when I'm the one getting 60's at the end of the game."

Adam took your hand leading you out to the car. He kissed the back of your hand that was holding his and muttered "I'm so proud of you."
