Basketball And Kisses

Chapter Seven

Chapter Seven: Strawberry Milk

It had been a week since I had walked out of the gym. The captain had tried talking to me but I just kept ignoring her anyway possible. I didn't need another rich brat telling me that I'm a monster and that I'm weak.

I had also been ignoring everyone on the team... expect Diana who still somehow hung out with me although I no longer go to basketball practice. I thought she would have been hanging out with someone else by now but I guess she's fond of me? I honestly don't know at this point and I'm not fond of it. I didn't like how close she was trying to get.

She was opening up more, she seemed less tensed and stressed around me. She seemed to be less nervous and more excited around me so in a way that's nice.

She was growing on me and I didn't like it. The idea of letting someone close to me again made me uncomfortable. I hate the idea of someone crashing my walls. And I just wasn't fond of it.

The idea of someone betraying me again just wasn't my cup of tea. I was making sure no one would betray me again by making sure that I had no friends.

And somehow Diana somehow got a bit close to me. The closest anyone has gotten then anyone here so far and that bothered me. Why her? What did she have that no one else had that my mind was drawn to?

We aren't even friends at this point and I didn't like how close we were. I felt the strong need to distance myself from everyone especially Diana. The only time I was that close to someone, was with my ex best friend two years ago... and she betrayed me like everyone did.

I heard footsteps and I was expecting it to be Diana coming back from the canteen with my money. But then I heard more footsteps so that eliminated the possibly of it being Diana.

I opened my eyes from my spot under the trees and saw the team walking over here with the captain. My vision hardened as I glared at the captain and kept an emotionless look on my face.

She turned to the group as I watched them all.

"Guys you can go now. I just want to have a private chat with Quinn." She said as the rest of the group left and went their own ways. She sat down in front of me as I continued to glare at her.

"What do you want?" I said harshly as I stared at her.

"Look I just wanted to apologise." She said as I rolled my eyes.

"Yeah sure just like every other rich kid. They'll 'apologise' but the apology is literally them putting the blame on the victim. Fucking bullshit," I said harshly and crossing my arms.

"Why are you generalising the group? Although I am rich I'm not a dick most of the time," She said confused and waved her hand around and I felt anger raising in me.

She's lying. Every single rich person I have met is like that. I don't like them for certain. I fucking hate them. They always act like the victim and they're better than everyone else.

"I'm not going to listen to you okay," I said harshly as I felt my anger began to rise just like it did yesterday.

"Why not?"

"Because I don't want to."

"Quinn."

"Don't start your stupid captain lecture Aryana."

"Why won't you listen to me. I'm just trying to help-."

"Well, I'm sorry but I don't want another rich kid telling me that I am a freak or monster and that I'm weak! So no thank you!" I yelled and again in anger.
