" What?" asked a confused Amanda taking off her earphones.
" I'm in love..." Brenda said almost clenching her teeth.
"You're in love?" Amanda scratches her head.
"He was just there, I mean he just was there and I watched him jump rope and--Amanda he was really hot! That hair...those eyes...and his dimples..."
She sighed passionately as Amanda looked on in utter perplexion.
" Well I thought that guys weren't your first priority! And, that we have a debut match tonight? I mean you said it yourself, stay focused girl!!." Amanda impersonated her best friend.
" Yeah...I did. Oh...I did." Brenda rubs the back of her neck.
" What am I doing?!" She says covering her face. " You did this to me..." Brenda advances on Amanda pointing her index finger.
" Hey, it's not my fault that you have the ''love at first sight'' bug." Amanda points a finger back.
"I don't have that...bug " Brenda folds her arms.
" Who is this guy, anyway?" Amanda wraps up her MP3 player and sticks it in her pocket.
" I don't really know his name, but I know that he is definitely one of the guys." Brenda strokes the bottom of her chin.
" Why don't you find out?" suggested Amanda.
" I don't think so..." Brenda put her hands on her hips.
" Why not," Amanda smirked, " That's no way to act if he's the love of your life!"
" When I saw him, I kinda...um...hid from him..." Brenda's voice trailed.
" Wow...you really have it this bad?" Amanda's mood changed.
" Can't you tell?" Brenda stepped closer to her friend.
" I have never felt this way before...I mean it's like electricity was in the air, like some sort of burning, yearning, kind of feeling...a really strong attraction, but...I felt like I was...ugh..." Brenda walked in circles around Amanda, who was mesmerized by the words that Brenda was speaking.
" Brenda...you have never talked like this before." Amanda eyes met Brenda's.
" Yeah...and I better stop before I lose it..." Brenda inhaled deeply and exhaled.
" Come on...let's get going...big night." Brenda taps Amanda on the arm.
" Yeah...BIG night..."
Amanda follows Brenda as they both enter the women's locker room.
