Before i start i would like to dedicate this to a_sapphiremoon who is my best friend in real life, i wrote this for her because she is always being herself no matter if people like it or not and endeavor's to handle the ups and downs in life as me....ENJOY!!

It was in the middle of November and the stakes were heating up at the Maroochydore High Basketball match with the year eleven's. The score was 45 all between the Jets and Sharks. It was quite surprising that they were called that. Jets wore Blue and white jerseys while the Sharks wore black and red. It was like the person that started our school was a musical theatre lover of West Side Story, but I totally doubted it.

The senior boys in both basketball teams took it their best scoring ongoing three pointers and jump shots. It was getting close to the end of the game. You could tell with the boy's determination with sweat running down the muscly and fit bodies. Each boy's eye was fixed perfectly on the ball as if it was the end of the world and it was the only thing that could save us.

Screams and yells came down the court especially from the co-captains of the Jets, Brian Godfrey and Daisy Jones.

Brian Godfrey, known by all girls as the hottest boy in school, he wasn't really the show off kind. He loved hanging with girls but does get a little freaked when the girl just gazes at him for longer than 10 seconds. Brian's hair was brown but short although he had the amazing looks.

Surprisingly Daisy (called DJ by the guys) was known as the school tomboy. She went to the skate park every morning to bust cool moves, she would only talk to girls when necessary and all her friends were boys. She even joined all the boy teams in the school. The staff didn't like it, but the thing was is that she had game. She hated wearing dresses and skirts.

DJ, underneath her boyish approach to the environment was a beautiful and fit brunette. She did care about herself like the average girl though.

Brian had the ball now. The entire team followed but keeping their distance.DJ stayed close to Brian. He ran up ready for the perfect jump shot until Darren Hoydens pushed him to the ground. 'Dude what the hell' screamed Brian going up in Darren's face. The crowd was now a chorus of boos. Every team member shaking their heads, Brian went face to face with Darren eyeing him and giving the death stare. Darren stared back.

DJ knew what that kind of face meant. He wants to fight she thought. 'Brian back it up, come on...Timeout!' screamed DJ as Brian followed DJ to the side bleachers for the basketball athletes.

'Taking orders from a girl hey Godfrey' said Darren as his friends laughed. Brian knew nothing but to ignore this kind of stuff.

'Alright team, we have one and a half minutes, and I know we can do this' said DJ as all the guys nodded at her.

'Deej that son of a bitch, knocked Brian over' complained Rodger Green, another basketball player.

'Look I don't care, we all don't care, and he can be a son of a bitch as much he wants but you know what. We have just one and a half minutes to make history in the sweat that runs on our skins and the pride in our hearts' said Brian turning and smiling at DJ as she smiled back. 'Also it's the last game that DJ is going to play as a Jet, so let's use our wings boys...and girl' he said as all the boys and DJ laughed jokishly.

'Alright let's get it in' DJ yelled as all the boys put their hands together within the circle. 'Alright boys, Let's make history, Jets on three' said Brian as he counted in three and the team shouted 'J-E-T-S Jets' and we all broke apart.

DJ, Brian, Rodger, Frank Hayes and Desmond Fisher all ran out in the field. They all took their places waiting for the clock to start again for the last one minute. DJ was chosen to jump but up against Darren.
