Whatever I Am, I'm Yours.

THE FOLLOWING MONDAY

Lauren
"DJ there was no need for the fucking tackle, Jesus," I groaned while slowly peeling off my practice jersey from my aching body. I hissed once I brought my hand over now growing bruise over my ribs from the fall I'd taken just minutes ago. It was barely starting to be pink and a little bit of a purple coloring around the center, but god damnit I could tell it was going to swell up.

"Sorry, Laur," Dinah sincerely apologized to me. Surprising. Very surprising. Yet here she was, "I honestly didn't see you."

"Now I know why we keep you on the net," I said while sighing and throwing my now dirty and sweaty jersey into my extra bag, "You'd kill someone."

"At least you fell on the ball and not the stick," Normani said while coming over to see my aching side, "We would've had to drive an impaled Lauren to the hospital."

"Thankfully, yeah. I would've made Dinah buy me a new one either way." I joked and looked up to see Dinah rolling her eyes at me while drying her hair and getting her street clothes ready.

"I'd buy you two. One to play with and one to stick back up your ass," Dinah laughed while grabbing for her flash shirt and skinny jeans.

I was the only one who hadn't taken a shower yet. Curse Coach Lovato keeping me back to talk about some scouts who were going to show up at any of our games, so to be prepared and always trying my best. Of course I always gave a hundred and ten percent. Never anything less. I just nodded my head while trying my best to show her how annoyed I was as I watched everyone already fill the locker rooms.

By the time she let me go the showers were filled, so I just decided to walk over to the ice baths and put my legs in. Even grab some for my aching side before seeing everyone slowly filing out so I could make my way to my locker to ready myself for a well deserved clean up. I could take off my shirt since I was just in my navy colored sports bra, but would just wait around and stretch before I fully stripped since a little less than the team was still in here.

"Here, Laur," I looked over to see Dinah handing me over my Bluetooth speaker.

My jaw dropped while I grabbed for it, "Wow, I completely forgot that I lent this to you."

"Sorry about that, Dawg. I'd been meaning to return it but my sisters kept snatching it from my room."

I shook my head, "Don't worry about it. Now I can listen to some music while I take my shower." I said while feeling myself get all excited. I always loved jamming out to music, but now I kind of some new stuff to listen to.

Thanks to Camila who sent me her playlists links from Spotify. She sent them to me with nothing but the caption with, here educate yo self.

Of course I just chuckled at the cute little caption, but once I looked over the playlists I realized there was a lot I hadn't heard before. That really just made me a little more amazed at her music tastes.

I turned on the speaker and was even happier to see it was fully charged, "You even charged it. Thank you, DJ."

"Got 'chu, girl," Dinah said while slipping on her hi-tops.

I connected my phone and started to play from one of the playlists, but once the song started Dinah shot up to look at me in surprise along with Normani, "Since when do you listen to Chance?" They both asked me in complete disbelief.

I laughed a little nervously while keeping my eyes on my phone, "I-I've always listened to Chance The Rapper. Why are you guys so surprised?"

"Lauren," I looked over next to Normani to see a smirking Vero, "Please. You said so yourself, you rarely like R&B, Hip&Hop, and Rap."
