WATCHING a grown man intentionally lose a game of PIG is downright
embarrassing. The things people do for love.
I shake my head at Wes as I rebound the basketball from his weak shot
attempt. The odds of him missing three in a row are as bad as my own and I
could have made any one of those shots blindfolded.
I gotta hand it to him, though, he’s a pretty good actor and his girlfriend is
eating it up.

“That’s G for you. I win!” Blair squeals and jumps up and down in front
of my buddy, her ponytail swinging wildly like a whip. I toss her the ball and
she brings it up over her head in victory and turns in a circle calling out to me
and the rest of my roommates who are hanging around our half-court gym.
“Reigning PIG champion, folks. You don’t want any of this.”
I chuckle and she steps toward me. “Come on, big guy. Let’s see what the
number one NBA draft picks got.”
“Projected. He hasn’t been drafted yet.” Wes wraps both arms around his
girl and tugs her to him.
“Thanks for the vote of confidence,” I tell him dryly.
“Just want to make sure you don’t start slacking, letting the media’s hardon for you go to your head.”
I resist the urge to continue our banter by telling him to fuck off since
Blair is present. My mom would lose her shit if she knew I was dropping Fbombs in front of girls. Besides, I know that underneath the jokes, no one has
my back like Wes does.
“Let’s go, senorita,” Joel draws out the word, exaggerating the
pronunciation as he pulls his shirt over his head and tosses it out of bounds.
“What’d I tell you about using the Spanish on my girlfriend?” Wes asks,
not letting go of Blair.
Nathan sets his beer next to Joel’s shirt and pushes him out of the way. “ I
got this. I’m three beers in and unbeatable.”
It’s a rare weeknight that we’re all home at the same time. Since the
season ended, we’ve each fallen into our own routines. Wes spending more
time with Blair, Joel spending more time with his girlfriend Katrina, and
Nathan doing whatever it is Nathan does. I’ve been right here making sure I
do everything I can to get that top pick Wes is ragging me about.
In less than two months Wes and I will be graduating. He’s staying in
Valley as the team’s newest assistant coach, so it’s really just me that’s
leaving, and man that feels weird. Exciting too, though. I don’t know where
I’m going yet. East Coast, West Coast, Midwest. Honestly, I don’t care so
long as I can keep playing ball.
