lamelo ball imagines.

star struck; twelve

I sunk in my chair as I watched the basketball game. I was at the suns vs lakers basketball game with my family and I wasn't really feeling it. I would much rather being at home practice for my soccer game but I got dragged down here. "y/n sit up now" my mom says through gritting teeth, my mom was a perfectionist she wanted everything to go the way she wanted it too. "Okay mother" I say I would never think to talk back or even whine at her request I wouldn't wanna be embarrassed in front of all these people. "can I go get a drink?" I ask getting up my mom hands me a 20 and I smile, walking away. I searched for a booth that had nachos. I found one and I begin speed walking towards it until I hit something so hard it made me fall back. "shit" I mumble under my breath beginning to pick myself up. "Are you okay?" I hear a very soft but deep voice say I look up to see the one and only Lamelo Ball. I knew him because my brother loved his skill and always would watching his videos. "Yeah, I-I'm fine" I couldn't help but stutter. "You sure you seem kinda shaky and off balance want me to walk you to your seat of something?" He asks looking around I shake my head quickly. "I just need a drink, I got it" I say keeping my eyes to the ground I wouldn't dare to make eye contact. I excuse myself and walk over to the booth I order what I wanted and take a seat on the stairs alone I didn't feel like going back out where everyone was. I feel a presence but I still kept my head down glued to my empty phone. "what's up" I hear a familiar voice say I look up and see a happy Lamelo. "hey" I saw quietly but joy popped out in my voice. "what you doing out here all alone?" He asked taking a seat next to me. "I don't really wanna go back in there too crowded and really isn't my scene ya know" I asked but I didn't know if he would even understand knowing he been around crowds his whole life. "Yeah I understand" I was surprised at his answer but just smiled. He grabbed a chip for my bowl and put it in his mouth acting like nothing had happened , I look at him my face was surprised. He finally takes a look at me and giggles I just smile as he smirks. He grabs a jalapeño and puts it in his mouth my face returns to the same surprised position. "that isn't hot?" I ask my eyebrows raised as he shook his head. "try it" he said grabbing one bringing it towards my mouth I open it as he puts it inside and surprisingly I liked it, I never ate the jalapeños it just sat on my tray. I smiled as he lowered his hands from my mouth back to his lap. Silent grew as we just ate and then I heard a familiar but angry voice behind me "Y/N" my mother yelled coming into sight right beside me and Lamelo. "I was looking all over for you, come on now" she says grabbing my hand I pull back and take a look at Lamelo "I'm talking to someone" I say and my mom look at the Lamelo with a weird look but Lamelo shook it off and shot her a smile. "Who are you?" She says and I interrupted "Lamelo Ball" I say and I could feel his eyes on me we never introduced each other he must find me weird now. "well say bye we gotta go" my mom says walking away from us. "I gotta go" I say lowly "well you know my name and now I know yours, Y/N can I get a number to go with that beautiful name" I smile and grab his phone putting my number in. "I'll be texting you later, bye beautiful" I smile. "bye" I say as he drifts away. I think that I love basketball now.
