The Gomez Twins: Book One

i shoot I miss

Selena

I layed in my bed. Looking up at the ceiling. I needed a break. I grabbed my basketball shorts and a t shirt. I grabbed my basketball and to the local basketball court. I started shooting shots. It was getting dark but I didn't care. I wasnt concentrated. Every shot I made I missed. My mind was at the wrong place at the wrong time. "Hey Selena." I heard a voice say. I turned around and saw Nick. "Wassup." I said. I shot the ball to the basket. But I missed. I got frustrated. "You ok?" I asked. "Do it look like im ok?" I questioned. That was a stupid question. "No...but know im always here." "They all say that." I said shooting the ball but missed again."Say what?" "Im always here....its like its you guys life phrase....make a girl feel one way then do a completely 360." I shot the ball....and missed."Not all guys are like that." Nick said."Yea but there rare to find..." "Maybe you have to open up your eyes to see." "My eyes are open and Ive made my decision....im sticking single and focusing on b ball and School....dont have time for a relationship." I could hear Nick sign."Your arm texture is wrong." He said. I faced him. "What?" "Its ok...when plenty of people have things on there mind there shots become horrible thats because your nervous is up and overwhelmed. So you hand shake when you shoot....here." he said grabbing the ball."From your old basketball games I notice you shoot like this." He said and made a perfect shot. "But now since you have your mind on something your shots is like this." He shot the ball. His hand shook a little and messed up the shot. "Maybe whats on your mind you need to fix....the big game is in a week and it wont be a good thing." "How you know." "My dads a retired basketball player....what ever you and Justin got going on need to be fixed." He said and passed me the ball.
