Hoops & Layups – Chapter 3
“Bullshit!” Tina yelled. Her emotions were fueled by the incredible adrenalin on the floor and in the stands.
About half way through the second half , Glenn stopped watching the game, and started watching Tina. Her reactions became his focus.
With only 40 seconds left, down by three they set a pick for Bette but they collapsed on her which left s the side wide open for a 3. As she let go of the ball Tonya got called for reaching, which sent Bette to the foul line. There was only 2 seconds left on the clock. Bette’s heart was in her throat, her hands were dry, her only thought were crash the boards, box out .
"I am the ball the ball is me" She said as her eye focused on the net, the sweat dripping down her face. All the training, all the work she had put in was coming down to this moment right there. She focused on the ball, her hands and the basket. The crowds cheers had become vaguely present. As she released the ball, the crowd seemed paralyzed as they watched. You could hear a pin drop. “SWOOSH” Tennessee won by 1 point . The final score was 64 to 65.
Bette sank to her knees and pounded the floor with her fists as tears mixed with the sweat that was on her face. “YESSSSSSSS…..we did it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She rose to her feet and started to pump her fists in the air as the rest of the team ran onto the floor to all celebrate. The sight was contrary to the other side, whose team hung their heads low, some using the towels to wipe their tears.
Tina was excited to see it was Bette who redeemed herself. She didn’t know much at all about this woman, but she seemed strong, determined, and would have likely held herself accountable for the loss because of the points it cost the team for her disrespecting the referee. There was something Tina had found rather appealing and intriguing about a woman who was in a man’s face like that. Most of what she thought looking at Bette, she kept to herself.
******************
As they cut down the net, Bette tried to take in the moment. It was then that she realized that this was the last time that she would play with the girls that she ate pizza with, partied with, shared secrets with…..there was a point in the season where she remembered they had all thought for sure the coach was trying to kill them. Bette was going to miss her extended family. As they went to mid court to shake hands and offer congrats on a game well played . She hugged Dana and whispered in her ear, " I’m sorry”. Dana said congrats and offered a small smile. Helena was the next player in the line. They shook hands rather hard and glared at each other. "this is not the last time we will play against each other” Helena said as she ran off to the locker room. Candace came down from the stands spinning Bette around, kissing her and telling her how proud she was of her.

Well I am happy they got to the bottom of your headaches.You will be happy to know I filled out my March Madness challenge we do at work. Yep…I won the big pot two years ago, but you will NOT want to know how I picked and chose the teams. LMAO! Seriously…you would laugh your ass off.I have to tell you, you are doing an incredible job with this story. In just the last three chapters I have seen amazing growth in your structure, your outline, your character development. The dialogue is coming together very well. You are describing the scenes in which these characters are playing quite well. Your pace is perfect, and the story has an extremely smooth flow to it. Keep up the awesome work hun. I take NO credit for this. You alone are perfecting this story and creating it with your thoughts. I am only here to support what you already have on paper, and simply polish a thing or two. Outside of that, you own it sweetie and all the accolades that go with it.LMAO, I DO sleep, although someone else online has been keeping me up late. In a good way though. THEN, when I finally told her I was hitting the bed, YOU got online. ROFLMAOOO not much sleep for Chicki two nights in a row.. You girls are keeping me busy. But I love you chickadees. Take care Tam, talk to you later. Oh yeah…LONGGERRRRRRRRRRRR and PPS. *hugs*BTW, dump Glenn…bring on some hot women on women lesbian love. GRRRRRRRRRRRRR

nice job tylo! i feel out my march madness form at work we well see lady… only thing.LONGER PLEASE
If you mean Cal Ripkin Jr. I only was able to see him on tv. That dunk that Bette does reminds me of Michell Snow sinking one for the Vols. Michell is from this area so we went kind of crazy when that happened. P3 and Charmed and Fusion and All My Children those are pretty cool shows. Do the girls (B&T) run into each other in the next chapter?
then Bette was the woman of the game and definitly one of the woman that everybody want, you are doing great with this story congrats
Good chapter. B&T gonna meet and can’t wait to see it. Please let B&T need to dump candace and glen and get them together. OK post soon please, thanks!
Great Chapter!!!! Thanks PPS
O cruel heart! Tennessee couldn’t win by 20? That would be easier.

Another great update Tylo! I can’t wait for B&t to be together. Or at least have a hot dance!!Hint hint. PPS
