Ball Is Life

Chapter 4.2

India

"Run! Run!" My coach pushed. "Scouts are coming to your last five games! Push yourself!"

I closed my eyes tight and opened them as I pushed myself to run faster. I looked to my left to see Paris right next to me,l even tho she was not a runner she wanted to push herself these last few games we have. I was proud of her ass.

"ONE MORE!" Coach yelled. "You're almost there. Keep going!"

"Ahhh!" I screamed out as I picked up speed and hurried towards the finish line. We just did four, fifty lap runs and my legs were killing me but that wasn't going to stop me. I ran towards coach and ran past her as she called out my time.

"Twenty minutes and ten seconds! Paris twenty minutes and twenty seconds!" She said as she continued to yell out the times as everyone ran past the line.

I began jumping up and down to keep my heart rate up as everyone finished their laps. It was quiet but all your heard was hard breathing.

"Gather around, gathering around." Coach said pulling us in with her arms. We all gathered around her trying to catch our breaths. "You guys were on point today. I've never been so proud of you guys, we are going to win these last few games. You guys have worked hard this whole school year and I'll be damned if we don't win that championship. Hands all in!" She said throwing her hand in the middle of us. We all followed after her putting our hands on top of each other. "India take it away."

I looked up at coach and she nodded to me and smiled. "Whos house?" I asked.

"Our house!"

"Whos house!?"

"Our house!"

I started jumping up and down on my tip toes getting everyone pumped. Soon everyone was jumping with me screaming our house. I smiled and couldn't be more happier then where my team has gotten.

"Hug it out!" Paris yelled and we all ran into a circle giving everyone a big group hug.

"Have a nice rest of y'all day!" Coach said before throwing her fist up as she walked away. I walked over to the bleachers where Crystal was sitting and she gave me a big hug.

"Y'all was busting y'all ass today!" She smiled. "I can't wait to get off these crutches and get out this damn boot tomorrow."

"I know, I get to beat your ass in one on one." I smirked.

"Y'all, I feel so proud of myself." Paris came over chessing hard. "I don't know if I would have ever got this far without y'all. Forreal. "

I smiled and kissed the side of Paris's face. "It's cool babe. That's what couples are for." I cracked up.

"Help me." Crystal said standing up and reaching for her crutches that were in the ground. I bent down as grabbed her crutches and handed them to her as she got off the bleachers.

"Yeah, tomorrow needs to hurry up." I laughed.

"Cause, I'm sick and tired of carrying your shit." Paris said picking up Crystals bag. "My arms feel like jello. Hell no. Where the fuck is Michael."

I looked up at the clock on the wall, "They should me outside waiting on us right now. But I need to get hurry up and get out this hot ass gym before I pass out."

"You know you look good in your new workout." Paris said complimenting me.

"Awe, thanks suga foot." I smiled.

We continued to walk out the gym and out the back of the school. We walked to the front of the school to see Chris, Mijo and Tyga standing there waiting for us. Chris noticed us first and informed the rest of the guys.
