erika: jake wtf!
jake: *laughs* sorry!
he puts out a hand to help me up and i take it
jake: so what are you doing up this early?
erika: well i was gonna get ready for the game than make y'all breakfast and wake y'all up

erika: i mean if you want too*giggles*
jake: *yawns* okay i'm going back down to bed
erika: *giggles* okay, i'll be in my room if you need anything

jake pov:
once erika left we saw her run out to the court through the glass than
krista: so i have your jerseys here *holding up the bag* and also i got you vip passes so you have access to anything, not to mention you all are in the front row behind erika's bench!
everyone: thanks!
krista: no problem!
she passes out our jerseys and they are dope!! the boys jerseys kinda look like football jerseys but it had erika's team logo on it with her number on both sides, front and back, her number was also on the shoulders of the boys jerseys. as for the girls they were the same as erika's a tank-top that crossed in the back with there last names on it along with erika's number on it front and back with erika's team logo on the front!
krista: now let's get a picture both front and back!
we did as she said, than we sat down watched erika warm up for a bit
krista: here put these around your necks and do t loss them!

krista: awwe that's cute y'all made posters
sunny: it was jakes idea
i shrugged than we followed krista around the stadium than we ended up on the court and was sitting down where we would sit when the game started. when we sat down the girls looked at us than a erika
erika: what?

erika pov:
the game just started, the other team won the tip. we were on defense than they scored a three, the crowd cheered as they did. abby passed the ball into me and i took it up the court, the person guarding me lunged at me and i quickly passed the ball through my legs to the other hand to maddie to caught it, bounce passed it to me and i cut to open space and made the layup. the crowd cheered on my way back to my half of the court i look other to see my crew holding up signs, seeing smiles on there faces which made me smile. we continued the game of both teams scoring left and right. half time rolled around and we were losing by 15 baskets. and forth quarter came around and by then we were losing by 20 baskets. everyone was panting, trying to catch there breathe, the person i was guarding had the ball went to take a three but i jumped up and blocked it making it go onto there half i sprinted to the ball dribbled and took a three, i heard the whole stadium gasp as it sores through the air then swish the whole stadium in there feet screaming, my team on the court high fived me on my way back, i was starting to feel hope in my self after i made that shot as i looked at jake who smirked. we scored another basket and before we knew it we had 1 min left in the game and we are down four points five if we want to win. we got the ball on the side abby chucked it in the air to me i jumped up and caught it than went up for layup when a girl on the other team body checked me into the first row of people who where around the court.
crowd: oohhh
erika: ah*groans*
random person: are you okay?
i see the refs run over, i slowly get up and get my eyes in focus.
ref 1: take your time we stopped the clock
ref 2: number 24 blue person foul
crowd: that's five 24 is out!!!

erika: no i'm good!
ref 1: okay! you get three foul shots with everyone behind the half okay?
erika:*deep breath* yup!
crowd: TRICKY RIK! TRICKY RIK! *chanting*
i put my hand up to stop them so i can concentrate and they did. i wiped off the bottoms of my shoes with my hand, cracked my neck
ref 1: good?
i nodded, he passed me the ball i took a couple of dribbles than took a beep breath, bent my knees and arm, then shot the ball everyone gasped as did i. it bounced along the rim than went in!
crowd: yeahhhhhh
the ref passes me the ball again and the ball swirls in than out
ref 1: that's okay your 1 for 2
he passes me the ball last time, i close my eyes and take a deep breath i shoot the ball and nothing but net, crowd leaps to there feet cheering. than michigan starts with the ball there is 10secs left i go up block the shot i hear the crowd counting down from 5 once i hear 3 i shot the ball from a little less than half court, with one hand at the basket and once the buzzer goes off the ball was half way in the net! we won!! my team ran up to me and hoisted me on there shoulders chanting tricky rik! than the crowd comes on the court after we shake hands with the other team.
