Alex watched as Travis bounced the ball towards him and they began talking about how to score on a game called 21. She grinned and could not help but feel grateful for Travis. Did he really just go out of his way to go to the center to help her out? She sat on the grass with Leila on her lap as they cheered for Cody while he was trying to make his first shot. Alex prayed that it would go in, afraid that the guy would feel bad if it did not. The ball sailed over Travis’ head and sank into the hoop, she and Leila made a whooping sound, cheering loudly. "Yeah! Go Cody!" Alex cheered while giggling as Leila stood up and made a little dance then applauding, sticking her tongue out at Travis who pretended to be hurt. "Hey, no fair! Who’s on my team?" He asked the two girls, pouting at them.
