"Carter Ramirez! Carter, you're up." I hear the coach yell as I fold my hands, taking a seat on the bleachers.
"Whoo! Go, Carter!" I exclaim as he makes his sixth shot in a row.
"Good job, Carter!" An old man with white hair says, clapping.
"Hey, new kid! You up for some one on one?" I hear Daniel call out to Carter and I clench my jaw.
"Sure." Carter nods after him.
"Alright." Daniel grins, taking off his stupid Eagle jacket.
"You got this, Carter!" I shout and he sends me a quick wink.
I then suddenly feel the sensation of someone behind me so I turn my head and meet eyes with the same brown haired guy Carter and I saw in the hallway earlier.
"Hey, hey, foul. Hayward, knock it off!" The white haired guy exclaims as the coach helps Carter up.
"You've got to be fucking kidding me." I mutter, pressing my nails into my palm.
"You know, I would keep your brother away from Daniel if I were you." The brown haired guys says and I jump at first from the sound of his voice.
"I think my brother can take care of himself, thank you very much. Besides, he can take him." I say as we finally make eye contact.
"Hey, just trying to help." He says as I sense him shrugging.
"Aren't you a peach? I don't even know you, anyway." I scoff, pushing some hair behind my ear.
"Ah!" I hear Carter yell as he drops the ball and tackles Daniel.
"Hey, hey!" The white haired man guy yells as my eyes widen.
"Hey, Carter! Stop it!" I shout, speeding down from the bleachers.
Daniel then pushes Carter off of him, ending up with Carter falling hard on his back.
"Asshole!" I growl, charging at him but a pair of arms hold me back.
"Whoa, coach. Do you believe this?" Daniel says as the coach ends up holding Carter back from attacking Daniel any further.
"Thank you, Mr. Ramirez, you can leave now." A guy in a suit says to him.
"Are you serious?!" I shout as I go to charge at the guy but the brown haired boy's grip on my arms gets firmer.
"What?" Carter says as coach finally lets him go.
"You heard me." The guy in the suit states.
Carter shakes his head and then jogs off.
"First a criminal destroys our property, and now that hothead?" The guy in the suit says to the white haired man.
"Excuse me? Are you kidding me? I mean, Daniel started this!" I exclaim, finally breaking from the brown haired boy's grip.
"Who is she?" The guy in the suit groans.
"You must be Valerie, right?" The white haired man says.
"Yeah, so?" I say.
"We all loved your mother, but we can't accept that kind of behavior. I'm sorry." He says to me.
"This is all part of your game, isn't it? I mean, my brother worked for months to get into this school. And you did everything in your power to ruin his chances. I bet you even enjoyed his little breakdown, didn't you?" I say to the guy in the suit, shooting him a glare.
"Watch your tone, young lady." He warns, taking a step closer to me.
"Or what?" I say, taking a step closer to him.
