17 Again (Double Trouble)*Under Construction*

Déjà- Vu

Today way the day! The moment of truth! The big tournament and I feel as if I'm loosing hope. I kept shooting the ball each of them went straight into the basket. I challenged myself as I positioned myself in many angles possible and every single one has entered the basket. Woah, Deja Vu!  "One more time." I mutter as position myself properly by bending my legs and springing, letting the ball release from my hands and into the air. The ball arched and went into the basket before it made contact with the gym floor. I smile before I fetched for the ball. 

        Seconds later, I felt another presence enter the open arena. "Hey, O'Donnell, save some for the game." I heard my son say as he entered the gymnasium. "I'm just warming up!" I defended shooting another ball frustratingly into the net. "Hey, are you okay" he asked me in a soothing tone. "Is there something wrong?" I didn't answer him. "Come on, is that a reason why you skipped band practice." he asked calmly. "It's complicated" I say, as I never dared to meet his gaze. "The talent show is tomorrow, not that I don't trust you, but I hate seeing people like this when I know that I can help...... Can you please tell me?" I look up meeting his big brown puppy eyes that he's acquired from his father. I think I should tell him the truth. I sigh, "Do you really want to know why?" I began by asking. "Ant, I'm not-"

    Mike came storming into the the gym pulling in a full ball rack so he can practice. "Hey guys, my turn." AHHHH, interrupted again!! By my brother....Damn, I should've saw it coming! I groan, in annoyance. "Yup, and we'll leave you to it! Come on let’s go!" I said before we both exited the gym and  entering the hallway walking beside each other in silence before he broke it, "Um, so you we're gonna say something....." he pushed. "Umm Ya, Ant I'm-" "Hey guys!" Alex chirped. I groan once more making it obvious that I was extremely frustrated. "Jeez sorry but, we need everyone for the team photo." he explains. "Fine, Come on I'll race you two!" I say as I began sprinting back . 

                                                                                                                                                                                             *                *                *

        "Ha, I beat you two, you guys should feel ashamed of yourselves, for letting a girl win." "Actually, you cheated and we planned it purposely for you to win." "Yeah okay, what ever makes you two happy... excuses, excuses." I mumbled the last part before opening the double doors entering the gym, behind the rest of the team. "All right, gather up, jockstraps, let's gather up. Picture time. Try not to break the camera." Coach joked as w all lined up kneeling on one knee. I positioned myself next to my brother and my son and nephew kneeling on my right hand side. 

"Three.....two......one...... click."
