Basketballs and Guitars (BOYxBOY)

Chapter 2

"I go with Larry!"

"No, I think Niam is better."

"No you idiots. It's Niam AND Larry."

"What about Ziall?"

"Screw you guys. I'm for Narry."

I chukled at the girls arguing in front of me even though I have no idea what they are talking about.

"Who or what are those anyway?" I asked.

All five girls looked at me "you mean our OTPs?"

"Your....OTPs?" I asked, looking confused.

"Yeah, our OTPs or ships." Natasha said, shrugging.

"Ships?" I asked, looking even more confused. 

Dani sighed,"if you ship someone with someone else, it's like you're putting someone with someone else because you think they would look good together." she explained.

I nodded slowly "So if I say that I ship you guys with...what's his name again? The white guy who's already in his senior year?"

"MAX!" they all shouted.

I chuckled "So if I say I ship you guys with Max, it means I'm putting the 6 of you together or something like that? Is it like pairing someone?" I said, finally understanding fangirl language.

They all nodded eagerly, happy that I understand them.

"So...who do you ship me with?" I asked jokingly, but I am curious who do they think I look good with.

"Hmmmm." they all thought and looked around for a while until their eyes landed on one particular person behind me.

"Kyle Smith!" they all said at the same time.

I looked at them in surprise "Kyle Smith? Just in case you guys haven't noticed, he's a boy." I said.

But they all just shrugged "exactly, that's the whole point." I looked at them and laughed a bit while shaking my head. These girls are definitely crazy.

Suddenly, Dani shouted "HEY KYLE WE THINK YOU AND JAM WOULD LOOK PERFECT TOGETHER!" I wasn't surprised that she did something like that but I was surprise that she did something like that. Do you know what I mean?

I turned around to look at Kyle's reaction. He looked a bit confused and he was staring at me. I blushed and looked away.

"What the hell?" I said through my teeth, glaring at all of them but mostly Dani. But she just shrugged.

"Hey maybe one day you'll end up together and you'll thank me, I mean us." she said, smiling a bit and looking slightly confident.

I rolled my eyes "That's impossible."

"Why?" Natasha asked.

I rolled my eyes once more "I'm not gay okay? Plus he's not gay so the chances of us being together is very slim, as in very slim. Probably slimmer than the sides of a ruler."

"Maybe." Hayley shrugged.

I rolled my eyes. What's wrong with these girls? i turned around to look at Kyle and realized he was still staring at me but as soon as he noticed that I noticed, he looked away and went off to one of his friends.

I looked back at the girls and felt a small weird feeling in my stomach. I haven't eaten anything weird so far, so why does my tummy feel all swirly and stuff?

Kyle's POV

I guess one of my weird habits is dozing off. I often stare into to space so when a girl shouted "HEY KYLE WE THINK YOU AND JAM WOULD LOOK PERFECT TOGETHER!" I snapped back into reality and looked for the source of that voice.

I finally realized it was from a girl in my class. Jam? That name sounds slightly familiar. I never liked big crowds so I barely know a lot of people in my class.

I suddenly saw a boy look at me, he has nice brown eyes and I think he was also in my class before. But isn't his name Jacob...Justin...or something? 

The boy blushed and looked away, he talked to a couple of girls but I just continued looking at him, for some weird reason I found myself staring at the same boy I stared at yesterday. Something about him was...nice? I don't know but I'm really curious.

I've never talked to him because he never played along with the other boys. All I know is he's friends with that really tall guy...Mike I think, and he's really good at playing the guitar.

The boy looked at me and I looked away, I should stop staring. It's too akward.

I looked for Ryan and finally found him scribbling on a paper. I hit the back of his head and he looked up and glared at me "what?"

I rolled my eyes and said "hey do you know that guy?" pointing too obviously at the boy I was just staring at."

"Of course I do. He's our classmate, isn't he?" Ryan said, trying to make me feel stupid. So I stepped on his foot and he said "Kyle! Quit it!"

"Well, what's his name then?" I said.

"Jairus Mac. But people just call him Jam, why?" Ryan answered and asked.

I shook my head "nothing."

Ryan smirked "You gay Kyle?" he said, causing me to punch his shoulder and making him groan.

"What the fuck Kyle?" he said, glaring at me.

"I'm not gay! Maybe you are! I barely know the guy!" I said, trying not to shout because it would just attract people's attention.

"I was kidding okay? You don't have to be so violent for fuck's sake." Ryan said, rubbing his shoulder.

"Just don't malke jokes like that! You perfectly know that I'm straight!"

"Really? Then why don't you have a girlfriend? I just noticed you never did." he said, but I knew he was joking.

I rolled my eyes "because I like to concentrate on more important things." I lied, I can't tell him that I'm waiting for the right person to come along.

"Oh so it's books, balls and boys?" Ryan joked once more.

I raised my fist to punch him again but he covered his face and said "okay, okay I'll stop joking."

I nudged him slightly on top of his head and messed up his hair. I know for a fact that Ryan is the vainest boy on earth.

"Hey!" he said and started fixing his hair once more. I laughed and looked back at "Jam" he was laughing too but he was laughing along with those girls.

I watched as his face flush slightly and I mentally slapped myself. "Quit it Kyle" I said quietly to myself.

"what are you looking at?" Ryan asked, finally done with his hair.

I looked away and looked at him "nothing."

Ryan raised his eyebrows but he just shrugged and continued scribbling.
