Basketball- 6th Period- Class #5

[slapbetcommish.livejournal.com]

Lily was still looking happy this morning when she greeted the class. "Hi, everyone! Hope you all had a good weeke- Um." Probably best not to discuss that with the students. "Anyway, today we're going to work on free throws a little. If you want. You do whatever you want but this is just a suggestion. You just go right up to that line and see if you can make more shots than that Shaq guy."

Yes. That Shaq guy.

"Have you said it to Eddie?" he asked. "Have you said it out loud about him?"

Uh oh. "Um, no."

Cue Adora attempting to dribble past Hannibal to avoid his eyes.

He let her go by but that doesn't mean he wasn't waiting for her to turn back around.

"Do you love him?"

Re: Free throws!

She didn't turn around, taking a shot at the basket and missing it, shockingly.

"Of course." Adora loved all her friends, Hannibal.

"Say it, then," he challenged, watching the back of her head.

Adora turned to give him a look. "Then I will."

"Say it now," he said, tucking the ball under his arm. "Tell me you love Eddie."

"Fine. I lo-" Why was it so difficult. Adora gasped, "Hannibal King, did you curse those words?"

Re: Free throws!

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

"What?" he asked, boggling. "Adora, wouldn't you be able to tell if I had some mystic powers like that?"

Re: Free throws!

[fabulous-secret.livejournal.com]

"No, I can't sense powers," she reminded him. "How did words become so difficult?"

Re: Free throws!

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

"They're big words," he told her, nodding. "Gotta mean them."

Re: Free throws!

[fabulous-secret.livejournal.com]

She frowned, "This is a complicated situation, my friend."

Re: Free throws!

"You don't have to love him right now," Hannibal told her. "You have time. Maybe it'll...come in the future."

Re: Free throws!

[fabulous-secret.livejournal.com]

"But I do! I love all of my friends and family." Oh Adora.

"Romantic love is not the same as friend love," he said. Even he knew that.

Re: Free throws!

[fabulous-secret.livejournal.com]

Hmm. "This is going to require some thought."

Re: Free throws!

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

"You and me both," he said and laughed. "I'm about halfway there. So, you know, getting there."

Re: Free throws!

[fabulous-secret.livejournal.com]

"Good luck to you. I expect to hear about it when you do," she decided. "Even if it makes Chuck Bass ill."

Hannibal snorted and said, "Most things do. Thank you. Good luck to you too."
