Keshante and Jordan have been dating since junior year of high school. They both attend the university of Michigan- Jordan obviously playing basketball and Keshante getting her degree in pre-law (a/n- making this up as I go, school has been taking a toll on me). They're inseparable.
Today, Jordan is being drafted, and he's feeling incredibly nervous. He doesn't know where he's going or who he's playing for. It's been stressing him out ever since he found out he was being drafted. He also feels on top of the world. With his woman right by his side, he couldn't have been happier.
Currently, Jordan is adjusting his suit, while Keshante is putting her dress after doing her hair and makeup. He looks at the time and sees it's about time to go. "Babe," he calls out to her.
"Yeah?" She replies.
"You ready?" He asks her.
"Yeah, I'm ready," Keshante says, walking out of the bathroom and adjusting her curls. Jordan turns around and is blown away by her beauty.
"You look beautiful, mama," he says, after getting a good look at her outfit for the night.

Keshante blushes and giggles at him. "Thank you, babe," she replies. "You look good, too."
Jordan was sporting a blue tux with a white button up under the jacket and a blue tie around his neck. To top it all off, he paired it with brown leather shoes.
He blushes at the compliment as Keshante coos at him. "Aww, is my Jay blushing?" she teases him and squeezes his cheeks together.
"Hey, not the face," he whines. Keshante laughs at him as he adjusts himself. Jordan checks his watch and realizes that it's time to go. "Oh, babe, we gotta go."
Keshante realizes and nods her head. They head out to the black SUV that was going to pick them up at the hotel to head to Barclays Center. The driver opens the door for them, Jordan letting his girlfriend go in first, and they head out.
While in the SUV, Keshante and Jordan make small talk. "So," Keshante starts, "who do you think is gonna draft you?"
Jordan sighs. "To be honest, I don't know," he says, sounding stressed out and worried. "I've been dreaming about this since I was a kid, and now, it's finally happening." He lets out another sigh. Keshante puts her hand on his thigh to comfort him. "I hope I go somewhere I can grow as a player," he says.
Keshante rubs his thigh. "Whatever happens, babe, I'll always support you," she tells him.
Jordan smiles at her. "Thank you, mamas," he says leaning in for a kiss. She leans in and meets him in the middle. "I love you."
"I love you, too."
They arrive at the arena and head inside to their designated table. And that's when Jordan was starting to freak out. A million thoughts running through his head, and he freaks out even more. He takes a deep breath to calm himself down as he waits for his name.
An hour and a half later~
"And the Golden State Warriors select Jordan Poole from the University of Michigan."
The arena erupts in cheers and claps for Jordan. He stands up from his seat and gives his girlfriend a kiss as he walks to the stage and puts on the blue and gold hat. He poses for a picture with the announcer. At the end of the night, he goes back to his table where his girlfriend and his family are waiting for him.
Jordan gives his mom a kiss on the cheek and his dad a hug. He then looks to his girlfriend, and Keshante jumps into his arms and leaves kisses all over his face. Jordan chuckles at her and gives her a kiss on her lips. "I'm so proud of you, babe," she tells him.
"Thank you, mamas," he says. He stares at her lovingly and tightens his grip on her waist. "I love you so much."
"I love you more," she replies. They kiss again as Jordan puts her back on her feet.
"Okay, kids," Jordan's mom, Monet, says. "Save it for the hotel."
Jordan groans in embarrassment. "Ma!" he exclaims.
Jordan rolls his eyes, and Keshante laughs at him. "C'mon, baby," she tells him. "Maybe, we can do something when we get there." She smirks at him.
Jordan smiles mischievously. "Oooooo, I can't wait," he says.
Keshante laughs at his foolishness as they walk back to the car.
Best night of my life, he thought.

Hiiii😬.
I know I haven't updated in a while. I just kinda put this book aside and focused on applying for college (just got a scholarship, btw🎉). In the midst of all the stress I went through with college apps and mid-terms coming up next week, I just haven't had time to update a lot. And now that I do, I decided to put this out.
As promised, I will be finishing up some requests. I will try and update more frequently. I have some ideas of my own for different athletes, and they will be up when I have time. I have winter break coming up as well so I will be updating then.
I hope you like this, Keshante! I'm sorry it's so late!
I also wanna thank you guys for the love on this book. We have reached 4K!!!! I started this book as a way to just have fun and enjoy myself. The fact that over 4,000 people read this book is so unreal to me. So, thank you guys so much!!!!
