 chapter 1
                          
The school halls filled up with students in a matter of seconds after the bell rang, signaling the end of class. Everyone practically ran out of the classrooms and into the halls, excited that it was the end of the school day.
                          
"Woah bitches!" Amber exclaimed, bursting out of the math classroom. "I'm free!" She yelled happily, spreading her arms as she twirled down the hall. 
                          
Zach laughs, stepping out of the classroom as he watches Amber jump around happily. "If this is how she acts at the end of a school day, imagine how she'd act at the last day of school." Justin says, stepping out of the classroom with Bryce behind him.
                          
"She's happy, man, let her be." Bryce replies, playfully hitting Justin's chest. 
                          
The halls were already empty by now since it was weekend and everybody just wants to go home. It was only Amber dancing around in the hall and the three guys watching her.
                          
"Yo Amber!" Zach calls out, halting her movements as she stops and looks at him. "Basketball court is this way!" He says, his thumb pointing behind him at the gymnasium doors. 
                          
Amber laughs, rolling her eyes as she skips towards the guys. Her hair jumps around her face while her backpack flies up and down from behind her back. 
                          
Once she comes to a stop beside the guys, Bryce instantly wraps an arm around her shoulders. "Can't wait to see you in those shorts." He whispers in her ear.
                          
"Fuck off, Walker, before I walk on you." Amber replies, huffing as she takes his arm from around her shoulders.
                          
"Woah, what happened to Bamber?" Bryce gasps, placing his hand on his own heart in fake hurt.
                          
"Bamber?" Justin asks, raising an eyebrow at his best friend.
                          
"Yeah, it's a ship name for Amber and Bryce." Bryce replies, smiling cheekily at Amber who rolls her eyes.
                          
"One day, Bryce." Amber shakes her head, "One day." She sighs.
                          
"One day that Bamber will be official?" Bryce asks, happily as if he was an excited little kid.
                          
"No." Amber scoffs, "One day that I will hit you. In the balls. With my truck." She pushes through the double doors of the gymnasium.
                          
Justin and Zach snort loudly while Bryce rolls his eyes, his hands slipping into his jean pockets. "There goes my hope." Bryce mutters under his breath, sighing as he steps into the basketball court.
                          
Amber threw her small blue backpack at the punches and jogged to the basketball that sat on the court. She took the ball into her hands in one swift movement before she started dribbling the orange ball to the net.
                          
Zach smiles at her movements while he takes off his jacket. Justin had immediately chased Amber, trying to get the ball from her. Meanwhile, Bryce sat on the bench and watched his friends play around.
                          
Justin moved around Amber, trying to take the ball from her but she was dribbling it around herself in a dizzy movement. Justin couldn't focus on the ball anymore because of it's fast movements.
                          
Amber took her chance and she threw the ball from between Justin's leg, and caught it from behind him. She started dribbling towards the net before she bounced on her right foot, bounced on her left foot, and then she jumped and shot the ball.
