beomgyu: "Can you do it?"

soobin: "No."

beomgyu: "What?"

soobin: "We can do it. All of us."

beomgyu: (grins) "You know, you should be the captain. You're a good leader."

announcer: "And we're back! Number 5, Choi Soobin, has been put into the game!" 

referee: "Ready?" (blows whistle) 

yeonjun: "Your last name's Choi, too?"

soobin: (nods) 

yeonjun: "Great. Now I can say I defeated two Chois on your lame team."

soobin: (steals ball)

hueningkai: "Woohoo!" 

y/n: "Go Soobin!"

girlfriend: "That's my job."

hueningkai: "Look, she just--"

girlfriend: "I'm kidding!" (smiles)

y/n: (tries to smile) 

hueningkai: "Hmph."

annie: "COME ON SOOBIN! YOU CAN DO IT!"

hueningkai: "Annie. Please. I need to be able to hear for my auditory Spanish quiz next week." 

annie: "Sorry." 

beomgyu: "I'm open!" 

soobin: (passes basketball)

beomgyu: (makes shot and scores) 

soobin: "Nice!" 

beomgyu: "I try, I try."

yeonjun: "Cheap shot. Try harder."

beomgyu: "You're just pissed because--"

soobin: "Beomgyu. Not worth it."

yeonjun: "Ah. You must be the bench warmer."

soobin: "Do you see me sitting on the bench?"

yeonjun: "No but you were earlier. Now you're not, ironically because of my girlfriend."

soobin: "Your girl..." (laughs) "You're [y/n's] Tinder toy."

yeonjun: (jaw twitches) "Jealous?"

soobin: "I have a girlfriend."

yeonjun: "That's not an answer."

beomgyu: "Get your head in the game! Let's go!" (passes basketball)

soobin: (makes shot and scores) 

yeonjun: "Okay. So you're good."

soobin: "Thanks."

yeonjun: "But I'm better." (steals basketball)

hueningkai: "Looks like they're arguing. I wonder about what." (clears throat)

y/n: (glares) "The game. What else?"

hueningkai: (shrugs) 

girlfriend: "How scandalous. Having a fling with the enemy's basketball captain?" (laughs) "Your life sure is exciting, [y/n]."

y/n: "I'm pretty sure I already said that Yeonjun is not my boyfriend. Also, I don't have flings."

annie: "So you do know him?"

y/n: (silence)

girlfriend: "Actions speak louder than words."

hueningkai: (mumbles) "She put your boyfriend in the game. How about that for loud actions?" 

girlfriend: "Sorry? Kai, you talk too low."

hueningkai: "I said I can't focus on the game. Can you guys keep it down?"

announcer: "The game is heating up. Newcomer Choi Soobin is lighting the court on fire!"

hueningkai: "Soobin's gonna save the game. I can already tell."

annie: "Don't jinx it!" 

girlfriend: "He really is the best. It's my favorite thing about him, actually."

hueningkai: "Your favorite thing about him is that he's a good basketball player?"

girlfriend: "Yes. He's talented. Talent creates attraction. They're hand in hand, really."

hueningkai: What is she studying in Boston? Psycho psychology?

girlfriend: "I can't imagine anyone else as my boyfriend."

annie: "Neither can I."

girlfriend: "Huh?"

annie: "N-nothing. You guys make a cute couple."

girlfriend: "Thank you." 

soobin: "Beomgyu, over here!" 

beomgyu: (passes basketball)

yeonjun: (blocks basketball)

referee: (blows whistle) "Out of bounds!" 

yeonjun: (groans) 

announcer: "Choi Soobin has a chance at three additional free throws! If he scores a point, the home team wins the game!" 

yeonjun: "Don't choke, newbie."

soobin: "I won't."

girlfriend: (stands up)

hueningkai: (whispers) "What is she--"

girlfriend: "Go Soobin! Come on! You can do it!" 

soobin: (makes shot but misses) 

annie: "Oh no..."

girlfriend: "Come on, Soobin!" 

soobin: (makes shot but misses) 

annie: "He has one more shot." 

girlfriend: (groans) "Soo--"

y/n: "Sit down."

girlfriend: "What?"

y/n: "No, really. Sit down. Don't say anything else."

girlfriend: "I'm his girlfriend. I can cheer for him. I should."

y/n: "I know but it's not about that. Look at him. He's nervous. He needs to focus. We need to not shout or cheer. Just... let him make the shot."

girlfriend: "But--"

y/n: "You're his girlfriend. You know him better than all of us, right? So look at him and tell me he's not nervous."

girlfriend: (sighs) "Alright. Yes. He's nervous." 

hueningkai: "So..."

girlfriend: "So I'll sit and zip my lips."

soobin: (dribbles basketball)

y/n: Come on, Soobin. You can do it. We believe in you. I believe in you.

soobin: (shoots basketball)

(long silence)

announcer: "And he makes the shot! The home team wins!"
