She's quiet, gentle soul, keeps to herself, definitely antisocial, and 𝒹ℯ𝒶𝒻. Her best friend is probably her sister and the lovely Azzi Fudd would also be her friend outside of her family. Their love for books is what brought them together. ᴘᴀɪɢᴇ ᴍᴀᴅɪsᴏɴ ʙᴜᴇᴄᴋᴇʀs is the face of NCAA Women's basketball. Everyone knows her as the star of UConn. From her charismatic personality, internet fame, star power on the court, Paige Bueckers was someone everyone wanted to be with. But what happens when her teammate's sister catches her eye. With Paige's unexpected interest in Azalea, and with the blossoming new friends and company, Azalea finds herself somewhere she never thought she'd be. With new friends, people actually wanting to know her, will Azalea welcome Paige in or will she push her away? "𝒯𝒽𝒾𝓈 𝒾𝓈𝓃'𝓉- 𝓌ℯ 𝒸𝒶𝓃'𝓉-" Azalea stammers, as she looks up at Paige, but Paige is quick to cut her off. "𝓕𝓪𝔂𝓮. 𝓕𝓸𝓻 𝓸𝓷𝓬𝓮 𝓬𝓪𝓷 𝔂𝓸𝓾 𝓼𝓽𝓸𝓹 𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓻𝓽𝓱𝓲𝓷𝓴𝓲𝓷𝓰 𝓪𝓷𝓭 𝓵𝓮𝓽 𝓶𝓮 𝓴𝓲𝓼𝓼 𝔂𝓸𝓾?"

Who would have thought I'd end up being friends with the Paige Bueckers-basketball's golden child, admired by millions around the world? To everyone else, she's a superstar, but to me, she's always been just Paige. We met during Team USA camp, bonding over little jokes and quiet moments away from all the noise. Back then, neither of us cared about the hype; we were just two girls who loved basketball and understood the pressure that came with it. Over time, we became inseparable. Paige wasn't just insanely talented-she was hilarious, kind, and so genuine it almost didn't seem real. I admired her on the court, but it was off the court where I got to know the girl who loved messing around, eating way too many snacks, and singing badly to random songs. That was Paige to me-not some unattainable star, just a person I could be myself around. But lately, I've been feeling something different-something I never expected. Every time we're together, the air feels heavier, charged with something unspoken. I start noticing the way she smiles, the way her laugh makes me feel, and it's like the bond we share is shifting into something I can't quite name yet. And it scares me because this is Paige-my best friend, my teammate, my everything. What happens if I'm starting to feel more? What if... she is too?
