A Volleyball Story

Chapter 19

"Losers visualize the penalties of failure but winners visualize the rewards of success."

Dylan.

It was about 4:30 when Jessica, Michaela, Sydney and I were done taking showers and making a mess out of our dorm room already. 

When Sydney mentioned Keith I threw my pillow at her which she then threw her volleyball at me and then Michaela and Jessica joined basically throwing anything that they could find in their reach. 

I was having so much fun I didn't want it to end. 

"We should probably make our way down to the lounge." said Syd.

"It's only four thirty." moaned Michaela.

"Yeah, but that means we get to be at the front of the line." she did have a point.

"Okay." I said getting up from my bed and looking at myself in the mirror making sure I looked good.

I was wearing my PINK yoga pants that were written in purple and on a zebra print pattern. My hair was down to my elbows as my wavy long hair shined in the light. I wore a baggy volleyball shirt that I got from my high school team. On the front of the shirt it said Spartan Volleyball with a volleyball and a swoosh behind it. On the back was my last name and my number which was six. 

"You look fine, and I'm sure Keith will agree." laughed Jessica.

"Oh shut up." I mumbled before blushing as the four of us left our dorm room.

There was already people heading to the lounge. 

"Great, we are going to be last." muttered Michaela. 

"There's only like five people there." I said.

"You just need to relax." Jessica said.

"I know, I'm just hungry I'd eat a pig." she said putting her hand on her stomach.

"That's gross." Sydney said.

"Look who's coming." Michaela sang as she looked at me.

"Who?" I said turning around and there was Keith wearing a gorgeous smile. Oh gosh, I can't be falling for him.

"That's Keith?" Sydney asked. I just nodded. "He's hot." she smiled. Just because she made that comment I could feel my muscles tensing. I wanted to say he was mine but we all knew that he wasn't.

"Hey Dylan." he said walking up to us girls.

"Hey." I flashed him a smile. "Oh right. Keith, these are my roommates, Michaela, Sydney and Jessica. Girls this is Keith."

"Hi." the girls said in unicen.

"Wait, you're Jessica?" he asked.

"Yeah, why?"

"Oh my friend Noah told me about you."

"He what?" she almost looked stunned.

"Looks like Jessica isn't the only one with a crush." said Sydney. I blushed when she said that. I really hope Keith didn't hear that. 

"He should be coming here soon, I just hope my other roommate doesn't kill him first."

"Who's your other roommate?" I asked him.

"Oh just some Corey guy."

"What?!" now Jessica was freaking out.

"Are you okay?" I asked her as she seemed to fall backwards a bit.
