My Dream Baller (Hoops Green FanFiction)

8.

As we leave the Arena, using an off limits exit, one of the players on the team notices us and stops us. "Y'all ain't posed to be here." We look at each other nervously. "Can we help you?" Asks Keke. "Whoa, sass! I like that." Keke smiles a cocky smile. "I'll let this slide, cause you ladies are muy caliente!" We continue to walk. "Whoa, whoa, brown sugar over here will have to give me her number before I let you two leave." I assume he means Keke, cause her skin is darker than mine. "I'm taken." Says Keke. Just then I see Briana walking out of the locker room. "Hoops! I'm a huge fan, please sign my boobs!" I say dramatically walking closer to her.

This immediately gets her attention. She laughs when she sees that it's me. "You're corny! And that's Bree to you." She says. "Okay Bree, you need to keep your tongue in your mouth. You're gonna catch a fly." (Cause she loves sticking her tongue out when she plays). She scoffs. "Come on, that's just me having fun." I just smile at her and we look at each other in silence for a moment. "I'm gonna go now." She says, breaking the silence. "Alright." I smile and nod. I start walking back towards Keke and that player. "Jenni! Hey baby!" I hear Briana exclaim. I turn around to see the girlfriend in a tight dress that looks almost as good as mine. Oh great! The bae's here. I think to myself sarcastically.

Bree lifts her into a tight hug. "I had to come see my baby." She kisses her, Bree puts her down, then they walk and talk. "Wow Babe, you came all this way to come see me." "Of course Babe." She smiles. I feel like I'm gonna be sick. "Keke, let's go please." "Okay." She hands the player his phone back. I guess she gave him her number.

"And Callum?" "He'll be a'ight girl." We walk past Briana and her girlfriend, and to the exit. "Bye Guys, thanks for coming through." Says Bree as we walk out. I look back and nod.
"Fans?" Asks Jennifer. "Friends." Says Briana.

We get home, both really exhausted. I have to get some rest. Gotta work tomorrow. I clean my face up, put on some comfy clothes and drift away into dream land. "Keke! Keke!" Says Briana as we sit next to the hospital bed. "She got poisoned." Says a nurse. "This is your fault!" I say to Briana in tears. I start to walk out. Bree grabs me and embraces me. "I'm sorry. I didn't know." I try to pull away but she holds onto me. We stay in an embrace for a few minutes...

I hear my phone ring and it immediately wakes me up. It's Jess. "Hey Brooke." "Hey, what's up?" "Can you meet me at my house?" "Right now?" It's 1am! "Yeah, please. I really need you right now." She sniffs. "Okay, I'll be right there!" I put on sweat pants and sneakers. "Keyana! I'm going to Jess's place!" I yell standing near her door. "You need me to pick you up after?" "Nah, I'll probably stay for the night." "Okay." I walk to Jess's place, more like jog there.

I knock on the door and hear crying on the other side of the door. "Jess. Please open." I lean in to put my ear on the door. "Jess." I step back for a moment, and just then the door opens. "Hey Brooke." She hugs me, then lets me in. "What's going on?" "My grandma, she's-she's gone!" She breaks down even more. I hold her and wipe her tears. "I'm so sorry." I grab her hand and take her to the couch. I embrace her and we sit there for a while. She falls asleep and I just sit and think, my arms still wrapped around her.
