When I woke up it was around 12:30 meaning my mom was at work. I went down to the kitchen and saw a note on the table. It was from Zandra.

Letter

Hey Jay,

I went to Melos Practice. I should probably be back in about 2 hours or so. Please don't mess up the house.

-Zandra

I rolled my eyes at the last sentence before heading upstairs to get dressed. I grabbed my phone, aipods, and my ball before heading to the basketball court.

When I got there I saw Zo and Gelo. "Hey Guys" I waved walking over. "Oh Hey Jay. You Ball?" Zo asked noticing the ball in my hands. "Your looking at The Top Highschool Player In Both Carolina's" I shot a full court shocking them.

"Damnnn boy" Gelo dapped me up. "Yall tryna go to Melo practice I heard Alex is there" Zo told us, waiting for a response. "Yeah she left me a note this morning" we walked to Zo's car and got in heading to the Stadium.

When we got there we all walked in making some head turned to us. A Man I recognized to be Lavar ball Walked over to me. "Dad this is-"

"Jaylen McQueen Top Player out of Both Carolina's" He shook my hand. I looked past him and saw Zandra. "Zandraaa" I yelled running and jumping on her back causing her to stumble and fall.

She fell on her butt with me landing on top of her. We both laughed and Lavars face changed up. "You know her?" He said rudely gesturing to Zandra. I stood up pulling her up with me.

Instead of saying yeah I decided to try something. "No not really we met once" His face lit up. "Well okay but i have a great offer for you. How would you like to play for JBA"

"I'm good" his face dropped. "I saw the way you looked at my sister and that wasn't cool man. I didn't like that at all". "Sister?" Oh right he ain't know. "My older sister, Alexzandra McQueen"

His face went blank. "Oh I-". "Nah its cool im still good on the offer" I walked off to the bleachers with Zandra not looking back at him. I sat down and got on insta.

I was gonna Dm her but my sister called me. "Jay come on his practice is over" I stood up and stretched my legs before walking over to Melo with her. "Man ian know your brother was the top basketball player in both Carolinas"

Melo said throwing his arm around Zandra. "Well now you know" He laughed and we talked for a while until Zandra Said Something.

"Yall tryna come over next week? My moms having this little get together and told me to invite some people"

Melo looked at the others and shrugged. "I can Idk about Gelo but Zo and Darren are leaving tomorrow". "I'm staying down here until next month so I'm free" Gelo stated letting us know he could go.

We started walking out the gym and Melo kept his arm around me When we walked out the door their was a bunch of people taking picture of them and stuff.

"shit" I heard Melo mumble before he took his arm from around me. He started ushering everyone to their cars. I walked to mines and he said something to his mom before walking behind me.

He got in the passenger seat. "Who were those people?" I asked him adjusting my seat and mirror. "Paparazzi". "ohhh makes sense" I've heard about Paparazzi, they basically follow famous people around.
