I sighed, looking at the score.
"There's no way to fix this , is it ?" I asked Shaun who was sitting on my right. He looked at me and shook his head. JaVale was called out and sat down next to me.
He stared straight ahead and said nothing.
What was his problem ?
I look to the left corner where Salice was sitting next to Lauren. Salice immediately caught me staring and her cheeks slightly turned red. I smiled at her.
She sure was beautiful.
She put a thumbs up and I nodded. She was checking to see if I was okay. She nodded back before turning to Lauren. Lauren and her became decent friends through the last couple of weeks and they were inseparable.
I was glad she was making friends because Salice hates literally everyone.
"Stop staring at her before you piss me off."
I looked at JaVale.
"What are you talking about ?"
"Don't stare at Salice."
"I can't look at her all of a sudden ? Who are you to tell me what I can and can't do ?"
"Oh shit." Zaza mumbled. A timeout was called and JaVale stood up , staring me down.
"I had enough of your shit." He told me.
"What shit ? You just sat down with a fucking attitude , don't throw that shit on me."
We started arguing and I didn't know how pissed off I was until Zaza and Steph grabbed me.
"Don't piss me off JaVale !" I pointed at him. He slapped my hands down and I shoved him back. The whole team separated us as the timeout ended. There wasn't enough time on the clock so the game ended.
All I wanted to do at this point was to be around Salice.
I walked into the terminal and saw her talking to Giselle who was holding a half asleep Genevieve. I looked around to see no cameras. I walked over to her and wrapped my arms around her.
"Hey you okay ?"
"This game pissed me off and the argument with JaVale made it worse." I mumbled in her ear.
"It's going to be okay, there's more games to win and he's always mad at something. Klay let it go because you are going to give yourself an aneurysm just by thinking about it too much."
I nodded.
She placed her hands on the sides of my face before kissing my lips. My eyes widened and I quickly pulled away from her entirely.
"Wh-Aw shit." She said, noticing JaVale who just walked through the terminal. He was mad as hell and his fists were clenched as he walked past us, purposely bumping his shoulder against mine. I let out a deep breath.
I cut Salice off before she said anything.
"I'm okay , I'm just going to do this interview and leave."
"I'll wait for you in the car."
I nodded and left , going into the media room. JaVale was sitting on the far left and Draymond was in the middle. I sat on the far right.
I was just going to get through the questions and get my stuff and stay with Salice tonight.
We all had our individual questions and the elephant in the room was addressed.
"This is for Klay and JaVale , what took place for you to have a commotion on the sidelines ?"
Draymond looked at me with a smirk and then turned to JaVale and sat back in his chair, looking in between the both of us.
"Um as team mates , we clash because we care so much for each other and the sport, that's all I have to say."
"But it seems like she had more than enough to say."
Draymond's jaw dropped and his mouth was wide open with amazement. I stood up and bent over speaking to the mic
"And it seemed like me and her both didn't have a problem with it, did we ?"
Draymond gasped as JaVale gave me a death glare. Draymond started laughing his ass off as I left with JaVale right behind me. You could hear Draymond's laughter down the hall into the locker room. I grabbed my stuff and went back the car where Salice was sitting in the passenger , scrolling through Instagram. I opened the back seat door and threw my bag roughly in.

Klay felt a shove from behind. He turned around to see it was JaVale. Before he could do anything, Salice jumped out the car and jumped in between them. JaVale pushed Salice over so hard that she fell and hit her head against the cement.
Klay shoved him real far away from him about couple feet . JaVale ran towards him and tackled himinto the ground. They started wrestling on the cement and Salice started screaming along with Giselle.
"GUYS! STOP!"
"STOP!"
They both heard familiar voices before Klay felt himself being pulled away from JaVale. Klay scrambled back up and tried to get back to him to beat his ass some more and Salice stood in the way, daring him to walk past her.
"Salice. Move."
"No."
Klay sighed in frustration and instantly calmed down. She knew he didn't have the balls to walk past her and do what she didn't want him to do. She was going to lecture himabout this all night and then tell his dad and then his dad can't keep his mouth shut for shit so everyone would know by tomorrow that Klay got into a fight with his team mate and a very close friend.
"JAVALE SHUT THE FUCK UP !" Salice snapped, turning towards to JaVale who was talking shit to Coach. Coach was staring at her in amazement.
"No Salice, I can't believe how stupid you are. What the fuck is this thing between yall ?"
"He's my boyfriend , you fucking retard. And put your hands on him again , that's your fucking ass."
"You aren't dating him."
"Well I am , I'm grown as shit."
"How are you going to date someone who treated you like shit ?"
"How many times are you going to say that ? I fucked up ! I know ! But I made it up to her, I never had to make shit up to you. I never had to. I love her alright ? I do and you know how I know ? I look at her the same way you look at Giselle. I look at her the same way Steph looks at Ayesha . Shit , I stare at her the way my parents stare at each other. I'm in love with her and I'll be damned if you try to take that away from me." Klay shouted in anger.
Everyone looked at them shocked.
Klay was dating JaVale's little sister.
And they all knew it wasn't going to end well.
"No sister of mine will be dating a nigga like that."
"Too bad we not related , are we ?" Salice snarled. " Klay , let's go , it's obvious we are welcomed."
She walked away and got in the drivers as he looked down and got in the passenger. She backed up and sped off as everyone just got in cars , leaving.
