Love The Game

Final Chapter 61

Its been 3 months since we won the championship game against Clarkwood. It's been 3 months since the accident. Sara doesn't have the brace anymore and the cut on her stomach is now a scar, as is the one in her eyebrow that honestly makes her look even sexier.

Track season was great. My relay team made it all the way to state but fell short in two of our races. We won the mile relay though. Kris went to every one of our track meets to keep Sara company or so she said. About a week after track ended she text me and said that she and Kaylee were officially dating. It's been a month since then and they're still going strong. I've never seen Kris this happy. Kaylee is a much better person than Mack and it makes me so happy to know that she's happy. It's weird to think that at the start of basketball season I was completely in love with Kris. So much that I couldn't even see that Sara was right in front of me. I've come a long way since then. Not only do I have the most amazing girlfriend in the world but I'm completely in love with her. And I also have the best friends anyone could ask for. Ollie and Kara are still dating, and I honesty think they're going to get married one day. They're not going to the same college but they will only be 30 minutes away from each other. At least that's what Ollie told me.

Sara and I decided that we were going to go to the same college. We're both going to try and walk on for basketball seeing how neither of us got a scholarship, but I don't really mind. I heard from a friend of mine that Mack was actually going to play basketball for a fancy college. Good for her. She actually is dating some guy now.

I don't know what I'm going to major in yet but I know I'm going into the medical field. Sara on the other hand wants to be an English major. She wants to teach kindergarten someday. She's so kind and pure that I couldn't find a better profession for her to go into.

Day after graduation.

"You know your form still sucks." I smiled at Kris as she held the ball in her hand trying to shoot over me.

"And you're still an asshole." She laughed back at me.

"I am not. I'm just telling you the truth." I said as Kris looked me in the eyes, determined to try and show off in front of Kaylee who was sitting in the bleachers next to Sara talking, Braddock had opened the gym for us one last time. Sara looked up from their conversation and smiled at me. I lost focus for one second and the next thing I know Kris is driving in past me to the basket. Shit. I did a little spin move thing and hit the ball out of her hands from behind.

"Thats my baby." Sara screamed from the bench. I just smiled and winked at her. I took the ball from Kris and checked it.

"Stay focused or I'm gonna beat you." She smirked.

"Mhm, you should take your own advice." I said. At that moment Kris looked past me for just a second and I drove in right past her and made a layup. I caught the ball as it came out of the basket and smiled at Kris. I walked over to Sara who was still on the bench. I leaned down and gave her a kiss on the lips.

"Get a room." Kaylee said joking, but as she said that Kris came over and pulled her up off the bleachers to give her a kiss of her own. I just laughed and said

"You should get one first." And threw the ball at Kris' back.

"Come on guys we should go. Ollie and Kara are already heading to Kristinas for her graduation party. We still have to get ready." Sara said getting up for us to leave.

As we walked out of the gym I looked back at the court that Kris and I used to play on every day for 2 summers. I looked back at the court that I've played on for the past four years. I looked back at the court that helped me come to know Sara. It would be my last time ever playing on this court. As I watched the court I felt arms wrap around my waist from the back.

"Come on babe. It's time to go." Sara whispered in my ears.

"Okay. Let's go." I smiled.
