"𝐖𝐞 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐲𝐢𝐧 𝐛𝐚𝐬𝐤𝐞𝐭𝐛𝐚𝐥𝐥"

"it's early as hell my goodness" i groaned pulling my hoodie off fixing my ponytail

"ladies rise and shine we're practicing today baseline right now don't make me beat you there" coach wilson blew her whistle making us run out the sideline of the basketball court

i looked down both sides of the line seeing everyone was here smiling lowly. coach blew her whistle and we started our suicides. i hauled ass from the left sideline to the right one making sure to touch the lines each time.

"45 seconds ladies come on!" coach shouted running along with us

either i'm fat or this feel more like 45 minutes rather than seconds

"and time! let's clap it up" she started the two set claps we did

(a/n if you play sports you should know what i'm talking about)

we did our claps before sitting down on the floor. coach pulled out her whiteboard going through our practice scrimmage. i watched her separate us up into three groups of five.

"lung go get them practice jersey's for me love"

(a/n idk a thing about basketball so nothing in this book will probably be accurate so blame google not me)

"okay listen up! y'all all know how we do scrimmages first to ten wins losing team off the court next group goes up next. we'll rotate everyone around in the groups so your position may change for today on, i want y'all to treat this like a real game" she said

"group one y'all green group two y'all orange and group three y'all white" coach said setting up the camera for film later

"bailee you center, ava you shootin guard, i'm point guard, and laila you power forward" this girl tiff told us our positions

"group one your ball" coach tossed it to me

"alright ladies" i said dribbling the ball down the court before passing it to tiff who shot a 3. i nodded giving her a highfive smirking. i was competitive as hell loved winning at everything i did it was apart of my nature.

"nice work today ladies get ready fir conditions today at 4:30 right after volleyball takes the net down and the boys are out the weight room go head in the weight room"

"break out on three"

"one two three rattlesnakes!" we dud our clap out before i grabbed my hoodie and bag

it was going on 9:30 in the morning and i had a 10:45 lecture for my african american studies. i finished the rest of my water before heading out to my car.

"damn my legs finna be sore as hell" i mumbled getting in my car

"incoming call from bossman orange heart emoji" my phone called out making me smile

"triple og wassuo daddy!" i exclamied

"hey lee how you been?"

"i'm good what about you?" i asked pulling out the field house parking lot

"that's good baby i been chilling yo mama been gettin on my nerves like usual" he said making me chuckle

"not too much on my momma" i said

"fuck you and that lady how bout that" he sassed back

"mann bye daddy"

coach had us doing defense drills while the boys watched us. i don't know why they stayed after to watch us condition.

"let's go 3" i heard someone say making me laugh

i blocked my teammate from shooting the ball before we slapped hands moving off the court for the next pair of girls. coach spilt the court up so it was a pair on each end of the court doing the same drill. i watched intently clapping and nodding my head at my teammates. i felt someone staring at me i turned making eye contact with someone i never thought i see'd again, carson.

btw this is a short story and don't mind the jersey's this is based in florida specifically famu
