Midtown Madness (Kassia)
Ben Parker listens to Coach Thompson in the huddle, getting his assignment for the play. He does his best not to look up and try to find Kassi in the crowd. She said she'd come, but he hadn't seen her yet. Then again, he'd only been able to take quick glances around, and even those were dangerous. Already, he'd allowed one steal to turn into a fast-break situation that allowed the Rochester High Roadrunners to score.

Coach was /not/ happy about that.

Now, Midtown High was down six points in the fourth quarter with two-minutes left in regulation. Ben was loathe to do so, but now, he might have to rely on his secret weapon to secure the win for his team.

 

/Can we do this? You've got to let me know when people are coming at me. I need to be as aware as possible./ Ben thinks.

/All that I have is yourssss.../ the suit responds in his mind.

"Parker! Are you ready?" Coach Thompson asks.

"Ready, Coach!" Ben says.  "Let's get a Mustangs on three! One, two, three!"

"MUSTANGS!" the other members of the varsity basketball team shout, and take the court.

Thirty-seconds into play, the clock is stopped, as one of Roadrunners falls to the floor of the gym while guarding Ben. Ben Parker's crossover has broken yet /another/ ankle this year.

Ben tries not to smile.

"Good question, that. I don't know. I guess we'll just have to see when we get there."

Ben wouldn't have to question whether or not Kassi wanted him to hold her hand; as his fingers laced with hers she squeezed his hand, settling her grasp with his as a smile lit her face from inside her eyes outward.

It didn't go unnoticed. Tim Jacobs saw Ben take Kassi's hand and promptly elbowed one of the other guys in the ribs.

"Hey James, you owe me ten bucks."

"How about we start at the fries and then maybe, just maybe, you try a bite of my burger. If you like it, we'll talk about you getting one of your own." he grins.

He pretends not to notice the guys talking about their running bet, content to enjoy Kassi's company.

Kassi looks at Tim bewildered for a moment before going back to Ben.

"Okay. I think I can agree to that. But I want lots and lots of fries. Lots. I love fries." She walks with him a bit, then looks over her shoulder at Tim.

"Ten bucks is all you had on this, really? Lame. Should've gone twenty."

Ben just laughs at Kassi's humor and walks her to Taylor's car so that they can head over to Big Nick's.
