Angel's POV:
It was 8:00 and I was super nervous about this game because the day before I got a message from my coach, she said that I would get some PT for the game. This is my first college game so I'm freaking out.
I got out of bed and put my uniform on and my shooting shirt and sweats over them. I set an alarm for Beca at 10:00 so the Nazi doesn't chew her out for being late. I grabbed my duffle bag and got ready to leave, I made myself a protein shake and left. I walked slow over to the gym where the game was held at so I could have some time to calm down.
I made it to the gym and I cleaned the floor before I started my warm ups around 9:00. The team wouldn't get her until 10 so I had some time to myself. I started off by stretching my arms and legs then I jogged up and down the court until I was warmed up enough to start shooting. I did left hand layups because that has always been a challenge for me. I felt confident after. After doing all my warm ups I stopped and took a break it was 10:15 and people started piling in. And I saw the cheerleaders and the Bellas walk in at the same time. I was sitting on the bench when the whole cheer squad was next to me. Then I saw Chloe walk up to me when I had my ear buds in.
"Hey Angel!" Chole said coming up to me and hugging me.
"Hey Chole." I said as I wrapped my arms around her.
"How long have you been here?" She asked not letting me go.
"I've been here since 9:00"
"Why?"
"Because I feel really nervous and I needed some time to myself before the game. I'm just afraid that I'll mess up and ruin my chance."
"You won't you'll be fine I've seen the way you play and your great! And if you start to feel discouraged and nervous just look for me. I've been told that I have a great smile." Chole smiled at me to prove her point.
"Well you're not the only one I've been told that I have a contagious smile." I smiled at her and when I smiled you could see my deep dimples. And I feel like someone is watching us but I just shook off the feeling.
"Ok well I gotta go get ready Bree already doesn't like the fact that I'm over here, so good luck and remember look at me when you need to!" She gave me a hug and she surprised me with a quick kiss on my cheek, which left a mark. And I stood there shocked for a moment with my fingers gently brushing over where she had kissed me.
When I looked to the left I could see my friends look at me with a surprised look and when I looked to the right I saw my teammates laughing and saying 'get some champ!' And that made my face go red. I walked over to the bench and my teammates gave me a pat on the back with my face still being red.
Coach got us huddled up and gave us some words of encouragement. "All right ladies! It's game time! You know what that means! HDT! Hard work, Dedication, and Teamwork! That's what I want to see on that court! You are all great players, so let's go out there and show everyone else what a winning team looks like! Circle up captains!"
I was one of the captains for the freshmen so me and a couple other girls were in the center of the circle and we chanted. "One Team!" And the girls making the circle yelled, "One Family!" And we did that three times until we went to our places on the bench and waited for the national anthem to start. As the national anthem finished and the Bellas went to the stands I could see that they all had signs for us, with Chloe holding the sign up for me. Then the refs asked for the starting five to come out. After that it was time for tip off. As soon as we got possession of the ball you could her the cheerleaders encouraging the team. Then in the middle of third quarter coach told me and Jackie to go in. I looked for Chole and when she saw me she smiled at me and that made me smile.
When Jackie looked at me she said, "Are you ready to break some ankles?"
"You know I am, the question is are you because you seem a little distracted." I told her with a smirk.
"When I'm on that court it's just us alright?"
"Ok, then let's play." And with that we did our handshake and we went in for one of the point guard and a shooting guard.
When we went in the ball was in our possession. One of our post players, Emma, she passed the ball in to me and I got that ball and shouted one if our plays. I dribbled up court and I broke one girl's ankles(not literally) and pretended to go up for the layup and then passed it to Jackie who made the three point shot. And the crowd went wild. This is the way Jackie and I always played together we knew all of one another's moves and we were known as the Dynamic Duo. The game went on like that for a little until Jackie set a screen for me and I went up for the layup until one of the other team's post players knocked me down. You could hear the crowd yelling how that wasn't fair, etc. The ref called it a foul and I got to shoot two free throws before I went up to the line I looked at two people. I looked at Andrea who gave me a small smile and mouthed to me "you can do it" and I smiled back then I looked at Chloe and she gave me her best smile and I smiled back as well. Then I went up to shoot my free throws, and if I missed or made these we would win either way but I had to make these so we could beat the record of how many points we could score on our first game. I shot the first one and it hit the backboard and into the basket. The second one I shot went in a circle around the rim a couple of times until it finally went in and the was game over! The whole team ran over to me and jumped on me then two of the tallest post players we have put me on their shoulders and we all chanted, "Barden! Barden! Barden!"
Coach then told us to get in the locker room.
Then coach told us, "Nice job ladies! We beat the school's record or points scored on the first game!"
Then everyone yelled, "Yeah!"
"And the MVP of this game is Angel. Great job Léon, keep up the good work and maybe next game you could start."
The upperclasses men then yelled, "Way to go Champ! You earned it!" They all gave me a clap on the back or pat on the shoulder.
"Now I'm sure you all want to go rest up so I'll let you go but make sure all of you ice up. And remember we have an away game in two days so make sure you pack up for two days because we have two games back to back. Now get out of my sight." Coach told us playfully.
I packed up my stuff and I walked out with Jackie to see all the Bellas waiting for us. And I was met with a mane of red hair and ended up on the floor.
"Woah nice to see you too Chloe." I laughed. And as I was on the floor I could see Chloe look at me.
She said ,"You did a great job out there!"
"Thanks but can we get up now people are staring."
"Oh yeah, sure." Chloe had a blush on her cheeks when she noticed that some of my teammates, the Bellas, and the cheerleaders were looking at us. I then noticed that Aubrey was glaring at me and Beca had a smirk on her face, rolled my eyes at her.
"You did a great job out there! I knew you were good but I didn't know you were that good!"
"Thanks and there's a lot you don't know about me." I smiled and winked at her, which made her blush and look down.
"I have to go with Jackie soon but before I go I want to ask you something."
"Yeah sure what is it?" Chloe tilted her head a little as if asking me to continue.
"Um I was wondering if you wanted to go out on a date with me?" I asked while rubbing the back of my neck.
"Yes I would love to go on a date with you." Chloe said with a red tint on her cheeks.
"Great! So how does 7:00 at the diner tomorrow night sound?
"Perfect I'll see you then." Chloe smiled at me gave me a hug then kissed my on the cheek before she left.
"Woah. I gotta make this date good."
"Alright let's go Romeo, you'll see your Juliet tomorrow." Jackie then dragged me by the arm to her moms car and I couldn't wait for the next day.
A/N: sorry I haven't gotten to write a chapter in some time it's bc I have a lot on my plate right now so I will try to update as soon as I can.
