[chrollohearttags]

could you basketball player! connie forces nerd! black reader to go to his game and he makes out all his shots to her and is just showing out just because she’s there. pleaseee

I swear, I feel like y’all are in my headddd. I was thinking about this the other day, I swear. 😭

connie is undoubtedly one of the school’s best players. Always doing big numbers during his games and keeping eyes on him each time he hits the court. Even recruiters from the NBA have come to scout him out. However, it never quite feels right..sure, he wins and gives an all star performance but the thing he wants most is the one person he wishes could see him play was in the stands. (Y/N) (L/N), the textbook definition of a bookworm and in his honest opinion, the baddest girl on campus. Super smart, gifted and very intelligent, not to mention stunning. It’s those juicy lips always tainted in clear gloss with liner or those big brown eyes concealed behind those wired frames that get him every time. Or those long goddess locs that you’re always twisting around your pencil as you study. What he wouldn’t give to have your pretty self sitting in the rafters, cheering him on. Only problem was, sports weren’t exactly your forte. But when you’re leaving a tutoring session with him one day, he’s constantly begging you to come to his next game as it’s the college playoffs. “That’s sweet of you to invite me, Connie but it’s not really my thing.” So he places a little wager..if he passes his next test, you’ll go. And low and behold, that’s exactly what happens so you’re left with no choice but to uphold your end of the bargain. He’s super ecstatic that his favorite girl is going to be there. “Imma dedicate all my shots to you, you better be watching me.” So it comes time for the game and as promised, (y/n) is there. All dressed up and looking pretty as ever. They’re running drills on the court before they start and he looks up in the stands to see you waving, so he knows exactly what he has to do. The game starts and you cannot believe that you slept for this long. Connie is playing his off; running up and down the court, shooting baskets left and right, he’s giving the other team the absolute work. Even his teammates are in shock. You’re so proud of him that you’re screaming your head off, cheering him on! When it comes time for the final shot..he shoots you a glance, getting a smile in response and of course, he dunks that shit and wins the game. Knowing that you were there was all the motivation he needed. Once it’s over, you come greet him and he’s all giddy. Happy as ever and even more so excited when you give him a peck on the cheek to congratulate him.
