A different type of basketball game (Anyone)

"I've got almost seventeen years of judo and taekwondo behind me so I wouldn't be so sure," I smiled.

"Yea, but Nikki has me." Katrina said.

"Oh man," I said and turned to the guys. "Guys?" I asked.

"They'll win." They all said.

"And would I get any help from you?" I asked them, putting on my most charming smile.

They shook their head. "Sorry, but no."

I raised an eyebrow. "I guess being pretty really isn't everything," I sighed, always in the same joking way.

They smiled and nodded.

I smiled at them and took the ball. "Do we play?"

"Sure." They all said.

I nodded and threw the ball to John.

John threw it and missed.

"See what happens if you don't help me when I need it?" I told him jokingly.

He laughed and threw the Ball to Kat. Kat made the basket.

John took the ball and threw it to me. I bounced me and threw it to Matt when I felt someone pushing me, but remained on my feet.

Matt threw it and got knocked down by Jeff, but made the basket.

I high-fived with Matt and ran to our basket to wait the others' attack. When I turned around, a ball hit me right in my face. I buried my face in my hands and turned around.

Katrina and Nikki ran over to her. "Shit Ivy I'm so sorry." Katrina said. "I meant to hit John not you." She said feeling bad.

"It's okay," I mumbled without putting my hands away. I slowly sat down and rubbed my red eyes, when I felt a hand on my shoulder.

John had ran and got an ice pack and handed it to her.

"Thanks," I said and put it on my cheek and forehead, while he was helping me get up.

John put his arm around her to make sure she didn't fall.

"Thank you," I said again with a painful smile and went to let the ice bag on the bench. I rubbed my eyes again and came back. "Ready," I said.

They all looked at her.

I looked at them a little bit surprised by their stares. "What?"
