Kyrie's P.O.V.
-flashback-
"Okay Kai, you got this. Just like I showed you," he said.
"But daaaadd, the rim is too far! It will never go in!" I cried.
"It might not go in, but you wouldn't know if you don't make the shot now would you son?"
-End of flashback-
"Kai, you gonna shoot the ball or not nigga?" I glared at D'Jay and then made the shot. "wooooh! that was clean yo, wish you could shoot like that huh?" I teased. I looked at my watch, "Shit" I grumbled, "I was supposed to meet with Bella and carry her to the gym. Her meeting starts in 20 minutes." I said as I quickly packed up my gear.
"Speaking of late, where the hell were you earlier D'Jay?" I asked chuckling.
"None of your damn business, you be worrying about the wrong things my nigga. And besides, isn't she like 19? why she need you to carry her to the gym? overprotective much?" D'Jay questioned.
I glared at him and said, "To keep her away from nasty niggas like Trey."
"Trey is nasty forreal" he laughed, "I see your point, man where is he anyways?", he asked.
"Do you really wanna know?" I stated. D'Jay's phone rang off grabbing his attention. I watched him and saw a huge smile spread across his face.
"Oooooohhhh, that's her there you talking to? Look at that, having my boy blushing and shit." I giggled. "Oh and about Trey, the last time I saw him he was making out with some Asian chick. She seemed familiar to me but I can't remember her name," I said as I threw my duffle bag over my shoulder.
"Issa new one everday with him, he needs to stop before he catch something." said D'Jay. We both laughed and I started walking out.
"Practice is at 5 ya nasty!" I yelled, smirking. "Make sure tell that nigga Trey stop slumming and come to practice too!" I stated still yelling as I pushed the door open making my exit.

Layah's P.O.V.
When I returned back to my dorm, Bella was no where in sight. "Guess I'm gonna go exploring by myself" I said to myself as I turned to leave.

I quickly finished my Starbucks drink. 'I dont see the hype about these things.' I thought to myself.
"Layah!" I turned to the direction of which I heard my name and spotted Kayla walking with some dude.
"Hey how was your meeting?" I asked.
"What meeting?" the guy asked, looking at Kayla confused. She glared at him and turned back to me. "It was good baby-girl. Anywayy," she said shaking her hand and head obviousy trying to change the topic. "Layah, this is Trey, Trey this is Layah, my bestfriend."
"Damn ma, you didn't say she was this fine." he said smirking. Trey's phone rang off, ending the awkward dialogue.
"Later ma, gotta go get ready for practice." he said. Trey gave her a kiss on the cheek, which caught me off guard, and turned to leave. He span around quickly, "Later Layah." He turned again and began walking to the exit.
I looked at Kayla with my mouth slightly ajar. I regained my composure and stated "Anyway girl, my meeting starts in like 20 minutes. I have no idea where the gym is so I need to get going." I pulled her in and gave her a tight hug and then I turned to leave.
"BYEE LAYAH, SHOW THEM BITCHES HOW TO SPIKE!" she screamed.
'She's crazy.' I thought to myself. Suddenly I bumped into a wall. 'What the hell, wait, this wall has hair on it.....oh it's a person..yikes' I thought to myself.
"Oh my bad ma," he said.
"No, no its my fault. I wasnt watching where I was going." I giggled nervously. He giggled too. "Uhm, can you tell me where the gym is?" I asked.
"It's down the corridor, and make a left. Can't miss those double doors." he said as he smiled. My phone rang off alerting me of a notification: "MEETING BEGINS IN 10 MINUTES."
"Shoots, I gotta go!" I turned and sped away. While I was sprinting down this long corridor, I realized that I was running away from this fine nigga like a damn idiot. "SEE YOU LATER" he shouted after me.
I finally reached the gym. I thanked God that nothing is happening.
"FRESHMAN YOU'RE LATE." a strong voice said in my direction.
"I..I..I" nothing was coming out of my mouth. Then it struck me, this girl's face is soo familiar to me. I just can't quite tell where or why I remembered her.
