Angeline's POV:
------time skip to P.E class-----
Im being blocked by the tallest and best players of the opposing team....every escape closed....
Just then....
"Angeline!",one of my teammates calls out to me, he passes me the ball...
"I got it!", I say .
In a flash, I dribble past my opponents and score....
R.B.1-wow! That's Angeline for you....she really is the best basketball player in our grade!
R.B.2- I couldn't even catch her movements !!! She's fast!!!
"Hey,Angeline.....didn't forget about me did you?"
Carlo walks into court after being subbed in as my opponent....
"Nope, in fact....I was waiting for a chance to play against you."
"Haha, yeah me too! It's been a while since we played a little one-on-one....",Carlo says, giving me a challenging look .....
'Well technically , we're supposed to play as teams...but, maybe just this once ....'
"You're on!!"
The match starts....Carlos gets the ball first.
The taller,stronger boys of our team try to block him,but before they can, Carlo evades with the agility of a cat, and scores with the grace and ferocity of a lion....
R.S- whoa.....did u see that! That new transfer student,Carlo, he moved as fast as Angeline just now!
R.B- I think he moved even faster that Angeline....
R.G- ur kidding! Faster than Angeline?!
All eyes r on Carlo as he walks towards me,acting as if nothing happened....
"Well, I see your speed has improved as well....", I say as Carlo stops in front of me.
"Well, I knew you'd be a lot better by the time I came back....so I thought I'd rather not be left behind!",Carlo says with a confident smirk.
"Hmm....well, this match sure is gonna be interesting....", I say as I begin to dribble the ball,
"...I haven't been able to go all out in a while!"
Carlo braces himself to block me, but The next moment , I slip past him, using the SAME moves he used earlier!
"Wha!" Carlos eyes widen in shock as I dash past him, perfecting his drive into an even better one than before....
I evade all the opponents and ,without stopping for even a second, I make it to the opposite side of the court and score!
Class: "...

WHAT?!!!! "
R.S- wow! I've never seen that kind of speed before !did Angeline always move this fast?!
R.B- no way! She's way faster than before!
R.G- goes to say that she was holding back on us this entire time.....
R.B.1-wait...so does that mean she's going all out on Carlo ?!
R.B.2- woah....
I ignore all the stares and whispers that I've elicited from the rest of the class...
"So....still think you can beat me?",I ask Carlo,
this time I'm challenging him.
Carlos shocked expression quickly changes into one of amusement,"I admit, I did not see that coming....but, don't think you can beat me just yet!"
Carlo says as he snatches the ball from me and scores a dunk!
Class:
R.G- kyaaaaaa!!! Soo cool!!
R.B- a high school student scoring a dunk?! How is that even possible!
"Oh yeah...we'll see about that!"
I say as I snatch back the ball and this time score from the 3 point line, with an alarming accuracy!
R.B.1-Angeline looks so cool!
R.B.2-I know right! I wish I could play like that!
By this time it's not just our class that's watching the game,almost half of our grade and even a few of the upperclassmen come to watch!
".....Hmmm, not bad....",Carlo says while appraising my shot...
"I've never missed a single shot, so be prepared!"
"You too!"
And so Carlo and I continue playing against each other the entire P.E class!
Little do I know that one of the upperclassmen is watching my every move with more that just a little interest.....
------time skip to after P.E-------
Joy- man! So in the end it was just the two of you playing while everyone else,including your teammates,sat watching in awe at your university-level basketball skills.....
Me- Joy! Cut it out! I admit we might be good but definitely not that good....
Joy- are you kidding?! U should've seen the look on your face! I've never seen you look that serious and enjoy yourself at the same time! Carlo too! It was like you two were in your own league!
Me-if u say so.....
Joy- but, damn! Now I totally get what you meant!
Me- told ya-
Joy- Still, I think you're better than Carlo!
Me-there you go again.....
Just then bell rings signaling that the next class is about to start...
"Well, looks like we better head back to class....I bet Carlos waiting.....",Joy says while giving me a suggestive wink!
"Joy!!!"
We both start laughing and hurry back to class.
