° Your POV °

     "Don't you guys even think about it," Ohm said sternly, "I'll tell her when I feel like it. Don't you ruin it." My mind automatically went to thinking it was a bad term. "Uh, is he insulting me or something? I'm confused." I started. Ohm slightly gasped and said, "What? You think I would insult you?" I stuttered out, "Oh... uh, not r-really. I just-" when he cut me off. "Ah, don't worry about it. It's an endearing term." He said sounding a bit disappointed.
     After lunch was over we had a time called free time, or activity time, where we went into the gym and had the option to sit, walk, or play games with a basketball or volleyball. I followed the boys to the back right corner of the gym, where there was a row of bleachers out, and a side basketball goal. I sat down beside Delirious, to his right was also Nogla. Vanoss came back to the boys, basketball in hand, saying, "Alright. Everyone up for a team's game?" "Count us out." Delirious said. "Alright," Vanoss said elongating the l, "Who wants to pick teams." The boys suggested for a little bit until Cartoonz popped out with, "Why don't we let (y/n) decide?" The others nodded and agreed, and turned and looked at me for agreement. "Uh okay, sure." I said looking at the 6 boys.
     There was Vanoss, Cartoonz, Marcel, Tyler, Ohm, and Mini. "Okay uhh- how about we do Luke-" I said stopping midsentence, covering my mouth. The boys, especially Marcel and Mini, oohed and aahed, "Uh oh, Cartoonz, someone called you Luke!" They kept teasing until Cartoonz threw a hand out and shooed them, "She can call me whatever she wants, ya fools. Now leave it be." I started back, "Okay, sorry about that-" "Its fine, (y/n). They're just teasing us, but we'll get 'em back." I grinned and continued, "Okay team one will be Luke, Ohm, and Vanoss. Team two will be Tyler, Mini, and Marcel." It seemed like a balanced set-up. Tyler bent a little forward toward his teammates and bragged, "Ooh she said my name first, guys." Marcel and Mini gave each other a look and then Marcel said, "Well that doesn't matter to us. She probably said your name first after the traumatic experience you gave her." Vanoss perked up quickly, and irritatedly said, "Tyler what the heck did you do to her?" Tyler became noticeably uncomfortable, and started stuttering his words. The boys continued making fun of him through various hints to what happened, while the others where visibly confused. Sure it was an uncomfortable situation for me, but I didn't want him to be teased into uncomfortableness either. "Hey, I mean, I think maybe Marcel's got a thing for Tyler, since he was more shocked than me at what happened." Marcel's eyes widened as the boys laughed. Tyler threw his arm around him and cooed, "It's okay, my little brownie, I still love you." "B-Brownie! You racist little-" he started, but didn't finish, due to hysterical laughter.
     After a little bit of joking, the boys finally started their basketball game. I was closely watching the game as Nogla began talking. "So, (y/n), Tyler really asked you to date him?" He asked curiously. I nodded yes, "He was only joking though. You should've seen Marcel, his eyes were as wide as his head!" The visual must have been funny to Delirious because he began chuckling. We all watched as the others played and began making jokes. Any time the other team would score Tyler would cross his arms, so we all three sat with our arms crossed, with a pouty face looking at Tyler. He never really noticed, which was a shame.
     It was nearing the end of activity time when the game was tied 6-6, with the needed to win score being 10. At this point Tyler, Marcel, and Mini were livid. Suddenly they started huddling up, whispering.

° Tyler POV °

     "Guys, how are we not winning?" I said irritated. "Hey!" Luke started yelling, "Y'all better hurry up, you stallers." "Yeah, yeah." I hollered back, turning back to my huddled group. "Not gonna lie guys, I wanna impress (y/n). So don't mess this up for me." I pleaded. Mini replied with, "If we help you win this game, all of us take her out for icecream, okay?" "Mini! You better not be trying to pull a move on her!" I said slightly too loud. "I'm not I just want you to buy me icecream." He said to which Marcel mumbled in agreement.

° Your POV °

     The three had been huddled, whispering for quite a while, when suddenly Tyler popped out. "Alright!" He said tossing the basketball from hand to hand, "(y/n), we've got a deal for you. If we win this game, you have to go out to eat icecream with us. Deal?" Ohm and Vanoss shouted in defense. "That's not fair, what? You can't just make random deals to act impressive." Ohm shouted in disbelief. Everybody in the team's were arguing as Delirious, Nogla, and I watched curiously, only to see Tyler staring at me. We made direct eye contact, and he winked. Nogla had a laughing fit, "Did- (y/n), did you just see him?" He said, finger pointed to Tyler, with his eyes wide, with an even bigger grin. "Nogla!" I said elongating his name in a whispered hush, "Shhh! Shut up, don't make me acknowledge it."
    Finally things started to calm down a tiny bit, when the groups went to their respective places. "(y/n), what do you say to our deal?" Mini questioned. "Is it free icecream for me?" "Yes, Tyler is paying." "I'm down for icecream, sure. Just not tonight, since I'm playing with Ohm, Del, and Luke."
Ohm threw his hands on the back of his head and spinned in disbelief. "I mean at least she isn't ditching our game for you." He said, beginning to laugh. "It won't matter anyway if you don't win." Luke said cockily. Delirious leaned over and whispered, "Also, did you just call me Del?" He said giggling. Luckily, Nogla was getting a bit impatient as he said, "Guys! You have three minutes til we leave. Just play the fecking game!" "Oh oops, we gotta watch the game!" I directed towards Delirious. Why do I keep using a nickname for everyone?

° Delirious POV °

     As I am sitting next to (y/n) I'm thinking, "Wow. These guys are getting really serious." It was no joke that either team wanted to win. It was Tyler's turn with the ball. He was known to be a ball-hugger, but would he pass to have a more accurate shot? He passed it to Cartoonz in front of him, who passed it back. He began dribbling, and I could see the gears spinning in his head. Was he gonna pass, or was he gonna shoot? Before I had the chance to choose he faked out Cartoonz, and began dribbling to the left of the goal. He threw the ball at the backboard, raced to jumped up, caught it midrebound and tossed it directly in. He found the balance between not shooting inaccurately, and not passing for the want to impress (y/n). A perfect solo alley-oop.

° Your POV °

     The shot was amazing, actually impressive, and I was stunned. Vanoss and Ohm were defeated on the floor, while Luke stood shocked. Nogla and Delirious hollered in support, and I clapped like a madman. Luke quickly stole the ball, "Still got a minute. Game is still going." Him and Tyler stared and the passed the ball back and forth. It was a one shot opportunity. He caught the ball, moved his right leg back, and began dribbling defensively. Suddenly the teachers yelled, "Ball's up. Everyone return the balls." It caught everyone off guard, so Luke took his chance. He took a step back, dribbled, and shot the ball.

° Third POV °

     Time slowed down for everyone, especially Tyler. To himself he thought, "Dang it. If I didn't let my guard down I could've blocked him!" He twisted his body as fast as he could to watch the ball. (y/n), Delirious, and Nogla were on the edge of their seats. The ball flew through the air, only to come up an inch to short, hit the rim, and bounced back, to which Marcel caught it. The three boys chanted and yelled in delight, as the others scoffed in disappointment. Marcel ran to put the ball up and caught up with the group as they were walking out of the gym.

° Your POV °

     I was both happy and sad with what happened. It means I get free icecream, and get to hang out with friends, but on the other hand, my other friends were upset with themselves. I ran behind them and squeezed myself in between Luke and Ohm. I patted them on the back. "That was a good game, you guys. That was a good last shot Luke." We were about to split ways, to go to our separate classes, when Luke bent down beside me, looking ahead, and said, "Thank you, (y/n)."
     He bent back up but I tapped on his shoulder for him to lean down again. I leaned in and whispered, "It's okay, just make sure to protect me in the games tonight. I'm quite competitive and hate to lose." We both giggled and went along our ways.
