This choice: You accept the challenge, and somehow win! • Go Back...Chapter #5You accept the challenge, and somehow win! by: Unknown For whatever reason, you accept her challenge.
"Ok Skyler, I'll do it," you say.
An evil grin forms on the attractive brunette's face. "Great! Why don't you start first loser?"
You walk up to the free throw line, feeling your legs nervously shake. Knowing if you lose, you'll sure to be for an humiliating experience. You look at the basket, feeling small and miles away from the rim. You close your eyes, bring your arms up, and let the ball fly in the direction of the basket.
"Swoosh!"
You open up your eyes and are just as shocked as the three girls that you have made the basket.
But Skyler is hardly impressed. "One lucky shot, maybe next time keep your eyes up and you'll look less like a dork."
She shoves you off the line and preps for her first basket. Lydia passes the ball back.
"This is how you make a basket!"
Skyler shoots, but the ball moves to the right and misses the hoop, harmlessly bouncing off the board.
Lydia and Marie each stifle a little laugh. Skyler looks puzzled.
"What? I've done that shot hundreds of times," she looks over at you. "Guess you have a chance after all (your name), now shoot!"
You pick up the ball and head to the line. This time you leave your eyes open, but miss the shot this time as it goes under the basket.
"Ha! That's the loser we all know and hate!" Skyler laughs. "Now this time I will show you how its done.
And indeed, she makes an effortless shot, the ball falling straight through.
Marie passes you your 3rd shot. You still keep your eyes open, and shoot. At first, it looks like the shot was going to bounce off, but instead it falls into the basket, giving you 2 shots for the round.
Marie and Lydia clap for you. Skyler glares at them. "Who's side are you on?! He's a fucking loser!"
She then makes a hasty shot, and again it fails to fall in. You had just won the first round.
"Well, you certainly got lucky," Skyler admits. "But next round will be different."
And it is different. You make none of the shots, while Skyler makes all three, winning the round.
"See? Why don't you just give up and I'll maybe let the bet go!"
The offer is tempting, but so is the reward. Suddenly, you felt confident (and perhaps a bit horny too).
"No way! It sounds like you are a bit scared Skyler! Afraid I'll win?"
Skyler's cheeks turned red in anger. "You wanna be smug with me loser? Fine. How about we raise that bet? Whoever loses this last round has to do anything the winner wants all day tomorrow!"
"Sounds good!" you say, a bit too excitedly.
"But you want win, so I hope you're ready to do all my chores tomorrow!"
Skyler takes the first shot and hits right on the mark.
You take the ball next and with a burst of confidence in your shot, you also make the shot.
Skyler looks flustered. She isn't used to being told off, and you were suddenly talking back to her. With her concentration broken, she misses the next shot. However, you make the second shot.
"What?! How is this possible?! You suck balls at shooting?!?!" Skyler yelled.
"I guess you're not as good as you used to be Skyler," you retort.
Lydia and Marie both smirked, knowing that's true. In fact, they had been practicing with Skyler to help her improve again.
But that doesn't mean Skyler couldn't shot. She aims and fires another terrific shot, putting her at two.
"Well, at least you'll have to go another round," Lydia pointed out.
"No I won't," you say confidently. You aim and shoot. Time seemed almost to freeze as your ball travel up towards the basket. Finally, the shot hits the board, then bounces right into the hoop. You won.
Skyler's face was a combination of shock and disgust. She looks over at you. "I never back out of a bet, so I won't start today. What's your address?"
You write it down for her and she swipes it away. As she walks off to change and you leave the gym, you could not be more excited for tomorrow.
As you crawl into bed later that night, you are still beaming from your recent victory. Not only have you beaten Skyler, the one person that drives you nuts, but you have a chance to fulfill a certain fantasy. You begin to doze off.. indicates the next chapter needs to be written. |
