~ After school in the gym ~
"I hear the cheerleaders are practicing in the gym today." Alyson said to Demi as they were sitting on the bleachers waiting for practice to start.
"Why?" Demi asked, looking at her confused.
"Because it's raining duh." Alyson said as she pointed to the gym doors that lead to the field.
Demi looked over and saw the rain hitting the little windows on the doors. "I didn't know it was still raining. I thought it had stopped.
"Well too bad it didn't." Alyson said before the coach approached them.
"Ladies, gather around!" Coach called as everyone came and circled around him. "So as all of you guys know, it's raining outside. Meaning the cheerleaders will be practicing inside with us. Because of this, practice will be short and simple. Now I want you guys to break out into two teams and stay away from the left side of the court, alright? But first we do our warm-ups. Demi you lead while I go talk to the cheerleading coach." Coach Davy said before walking over to the other side of the gym to talk to Coach Sharon.
~ Demi's P.O.V. ~
"Uhm, alright. Let's start with some stretches." I said to the rest of the team.
We began to do our stretches before I saw someone from my peripheral vision. It wasn't just anyone however. It was Selena. She has yet to leave my mind once. She's all I think about. Normally that wouldn't be a problem for me because she was always on my mind anyways but this time it was different. It was different because she was mad at me and didn't want to talk to me. Before I had been fine with not talking to her because she didn't even know me so it was okay.
As I was doing all of this thinking during my stretches, Selena look my way and caught my eye. I gave her a small smile and she…Oh my god! She gave me one back! This made my smile grow even bigger and I started to grin. She rolled her eyes with the smile still in place. This is improvement. Hopefully she can forgive me soon.
"Alright! Ten suicides. All the way across the court! Let's go!" Coach yelled at us as we all groaned. "Oh quit complaining and go."
We all took off on our suicides as soon as he said that. I usually hate suicides (and I still do) but since the cheerleaders were watching us –mainly Selena- I made sure to put my all into it. I raced back and forth in the gym making sure I was in the lead of everyone else. Apparently I succeeded because as soon as I finished my tenth suicide, everyone else was just starting theirs.
"Wow. You were pretty speedy there. Tryin' to impress someone?" Alyson asked with a wink as soon as she was done.
I blushed. "Shut up."
Alyson chuckled. "Whatever. I knew you were trying to impress Selena.
I opened my mouth to say otherwise but Coach Davy started talking to the team. "Okay now get into two teams and do your regular practice."
We all got into our teams (chosen randomly by us) and got into the rhythm of the game. My team was in the lead by a few points. Me and Alyson were hard players so it's no surprise we were winning.
~ Over with Selena, her P.O.V. ~
"Watching Demi huh?" Miley asked from behind me causing me to jump. Swear she needs to wear a bell or something. I didn't bother replying. She already knew I was. Miley sighed. "I know you said you wanted time but you're torturing yourself by doing so.
I sighed. She was right but then again, when isn't she? "I know but I sort of want to see if she'll actually wait for me."
"Hey I told you earlier last night that she would." Miley told me.
"Yeah I know but is she actually serious?" I asked. It was sweet of her to say that but I want to see if she would actually follow through with it. It's cruel, I know but she's not the only one who is in torture.
"From what Alyson has told me, she's pretty serious." Miley said.
Hmm. I wonder what else Alyson told her. "And what else has Alyson told you?" I asked.
Miley though for a second. "That she'd literally die if you don't forgive her and that you're all she thinks about."
I blushed lightly as a smile started to form on my face. She was so sweet. Maybe I will forgive her.
~ After School ~
Demi walked out of the locker room and into the gym wearing her basketball shorts and the shirt she had been wearing that day. Everyone else had already left but Demi stuck around wanting to practice a little more. Upon hearing a basketball bounce on the floor, Demi noticed that she wasn't alone. She froze in her tracks as she noticed Selena in her outfit from the day shooting the ball into the hoop and surprisingly making it.
"Nice shot!" Demi called from where she was near the bleachers before starting to walk towards her.
Selena's head whipped around before she noticed that it was Demi. "Th-thanks."
Demi continued to make her way towards her and picked up the ball that was rolling near her feet. "What are you doing here?" Selena asked as she tossed the ball into the hoop, making a "swoosh" sound.
"I could ask you the same question." Selena said, picking up the ball and throwing it towards the hoop.
"Wanted some more practice." Demi caught the ball as it bounced off the rim of the hoop. She held the ball between her hands before tossing it to Selena. "You?"
Selena looked down at the ball between her hands before starting to dribble it slowly on the ground. "Just thinking."
"About?" Demi questioned as Selena just looked at her. Demi nodded her head slowly. "Oh."
"Yeah…" Selena said, holding the ball lightly in her hand.
"Do you want me to leave you alone so you can think or…?" Demi asked shyly.
"No, no. It's okay. You can stay." Selena answered quickly.
Demi looked at her in surprise. "Are you sure?"
"Positive." Selena smiled causing Demi to smile as well. "Hey uhm…" Selena looked down at the ball still in her hand before looking back up at Demi. "Do you want to play horse?"
Demi thought about it for a moment. "How about pig?"
Selena gave her a puzzled look. "Pig?"
"Yeah. You know, horse only shorter?" Demi said.
"What? Afraid that I might actually beat you at the longer version so you have to resort to the smaller version?" Selena smirked.
Demi chuckled. "Fine, we'll play horse."
"Great. I'll start." Selena smiled and got ready to shoot the ball but was stopped by Demi.
"Wait. How about we make this a bit more interesting?" Demi asked with a smirk placed on her lips.
Selena looked confused. "How?"
"Well," Demi leaned forward and took the ball out of her hand. "If I win this game, you owe me a kiss."
"And if I win?" Selena raised an eyebrow.
"Then I owe you a kiss." Demi smiled, the smirk still slightly there.
"What if I don't want a kiss?" Selena challenged.
Demi chuckled. "Don't lie. You know you do."
Selena didn't respond to that though. "So it's a 'loser kisses winner' deal?"
"Yeah pretty much." Demi nodded. "You in?"
Selena shrugged. "Why not?"
"Yes! Okay let's go. You can go first." Demi handed the ball over to her.
Selena took the ball from her and took a shot. "Oh! What now?" Selena cheered as it went through the hoop.
"Calm down over there. It was only one shot." Demi chuckled as Selena stuck her tongue out at her.
A little while later in the game, they were coming to a close end. Demi had only missed 3 shots causing her to have the word H-O-R while Selena had missed 4 shots giving her the word H-O-R-S.
"Crap!" Demi exclaimed as she had just missed another shot, making her word now the same as Selena's.
"Good job." Selena laughed out.
"Alright. I see how it is. Let's see how you do. Miss this shot and you owe me a kiss." Demi smirked and tossed her the ball.
"No pressure there." Selena said sarcastically before dribbling the ball and throwing it towards the hoop. Both her and Demi watched as it circled on the rim before falling off the rim and onto the ground.
"Yes! I win!" Demi cheered as Selena groaned.
"I believe you owe me a kiss now." Demi smirked.
Selena rolled her eyes before walking up to her. "As you wish miss basketball star." She then cupped Demi's cheek in her hand and placed a small, soft kiss on her lips.
Before Demi had a chance to kiss back, Selena had pulled away from her. "Now that's a kiss!" Demi exclaimed as Selena giggled with a blush.
I hoped you liked this one. tell me what you thought :)
