《Wrong Number | LaMelo Ball |》005
Advertisement
I woke up to my phone ringing. I checked the caller Id and it was my dad. I ignored it and went back to sleep knowing it was just to yell at me.
Oh do I wish I answered it instead.
4 Hours Later
I woke up again to someone banging on the front door. I had no choice but to get up and answer it since the others were still sleep.
I threw on my Nike Slides and walked down the steps to the door. I looked through the peep hole and mentally groaned. It was my dad.
"Melo I Know You Hear Me Knocking On This Door" His loud ass yelled knocking again. I opened it and saw Him, My mom, My grandparents, and My Dog.
Dip Jumped on me, causing me to fall, and licked my face. My mom laughed along with my grandparents but my dad didn't. "Get up we need to talk" I rolled my eyes before showing them to guest rooms.
I went back downstairs to the dining room where my dad was. "Sit Down We Need To Talk" His voice echoed through the room. "Can you queit down a little tho its like 2am and I got practice in the morning"
"I got a Call from Dmo earlier Melo You know what it was about". He totally ignored my request. "Alexzandra". "Sure was, He also told me she is becoming a distraction to you so from now on you won't be seeing her"
He's Joking right "But dad-" He shook his head and I stormed back in my room. When I got there I saw my mom sitting on my bed. "Hey Mama" she nodded and patted the empty spot next to her.
"Come Sit" I sat next to her and laid my head on her shoulder. "What's wrong Melo" I sighed. "Him and Darren. They both think Alex is a distraction And He hasn't even met her" I whisper yelled.

"Darren Has been nothing but rude to her and is the only person that has a problem with her. Gelo and Zo Love Her!" She grabbed my hand and rubbed the back. "And im a whole ass adult. My own house, car, and I pay my bills"
"I want to meet her" I kind of smiled. "She's coming to my practice in the morning" I yawned. "Ill see you in the morning Melo, Sleep". "Night Mama" I kissed her forehead. "Goodnight Melo"
5 Hours Later
I woke up to my alarm beeping in my ear. Groaning, I stood up and stretched. I heard voices downstairs so I guess they were up. I Grabbed some shorts and a black wife beater before hopping in the shower.
I did my hygiene, threw on my slides, and walked downstairs with my phone, aipods, and charger. When I walked in the kitchen there was My parents and Grandparents.
I said Goodmorning and grabbed an apple. I hopped on the counter before taking a bite into it. Zo came in the kitchen and looked at Lavar before looking back at me.
I shrugged my shoulders and he nodded slowly. "Don't you have practice in 30 minutes" I glared at him because now my dad knows and is gonna want to come.
"You have practice? I'm Going then" I sighed and got up signally them to come on since Mama was going. I made sure to punch Zo before heading out the door.
I got in The Urus followed bye Lavar, Mama, and Darren. I pulled of before soon arriving at the Stadium. As soon as I parked I hopped out and opened the door for my mother.
After she made it safely out the car I went in the stadium and talked to security. "Aye James" I called out to my favorite guard. "If a girl with red hair comes by send her in, she goes by Alex or Zandra"

He nodded and patted me on the back. "I got you go ahead in" I smiled and went in and started warm ups with the rest of the team. The others went and sat on the bleachers.
1 Hour Later
I was in the middled of making a 3 pointer when I heard the doors to the gym open. I shot the ball and made it before looking back. I saw Alex and smiled. "ALRIGHT GUYS BREAK TIME"
I walked over embracing her in a hug. "Hey Alex" I said letting go from the hug. "Hey Boo" I felt myself blush at the nickname. I pushed her head. "Oh my mom wants to meet you"
"Don't they live in- " I gestured my head to the bleachers where Dmo was whispering in my dads ear. I dragged her over to them. "Mama This is Alex"
She stood up to come down from the bleachers but alex stopped her seeing her cane. "No no no I'll come to you please, sit" she went up and hugged her. "I'm Melo's mom, please call me Mama T"
"Okay Mama T" She looked back at lavar and Dmo. "Hello" They didn't answer and she looked down. "Uhh We'll be back" I brought her back down the bleachers towards the doors
"I don't think Your dad likes me" She whispered quietly. "He doesnt Matter, all that matters is what my mom thinks and she loves you already I can tell" A blush started to creep on her face.
"BREAKS OVE GUYS COME ON" Coach yelled waving us over. "Welp time to go practice boo". "See ya Alex" I pushed her head and ran over to the team. I heard her laugh making me smile.
"Melo got a girlllll" Miles teased, poking my side. "Shut uppp" we started doing drills and some other stuff.

Tempest Rogue
This story follows Auron, a man who has been plagued with vivid nightmares his entire life. While running away from a beating, a splitting headache causes him to fall to his knees. Once again his nightmares bleed into reality. The next "episode" he has brings him from the scene of his nightmare, to a posionous swamp. To make matters worse his memories from earth are fading, and these nightmares that plagued his childhood, filled with darkness and a red coocoon, are back and worse than ever. As he clings to the only memories he has left, he is forced to fight through a world of brutal blood thirsty monsters, dungeons, and a complex magic system governed by an ancient agreement. First time writing any sort of story. Everything is still a work in progress. As I improve on my writing I will go back and edit parts. Early chapters are subject to change as I grow my ability. I am going to try my best to write this world and improve as I go. My goal is to make my dream come to life through the medium of text. This is why I wanted to post it here. Feel free to comment, and bring constructive criticism. Hope you enjoy! More info (Spoiler warning): only read if you are picky, read a lot, and want to waste no time with a story you may not want read. This book is a litrpg. This means it contains stat tables, and other game elements. (Which you may gloss over if you would like) It is written in a fantasy world, in the style of a progression fantasy. The main character grows in power as the story plays out. My characters are written to my best ability, but you may find them immature. The MC has to adjust to fighting, and killing which he struggles with for a while. His partner is a magical salamander who is a friend and mentor. The world building, monsters, and descriptions are also low tier. (I am working hard to change that!) If you are okay reading something by someone who is just getting started then welcome! I am doing my best, and incrementally improving as I go.

Parallels
Parallels are a constant in life. Our friends' lives often run parallel to ours; we share similar experiences or tastes- perhaps even both. Sometimes, however, opposites attract- and our lives run perpendicular. In that case, we are not attracted by similarities; rather, we are attracted to the differences in others. So, what happens when two parallels are broken apart? What might happen to them? Are they forever doomed to run alongside each other, never seeing one another, never meeting? Or, perhaps, might they be spun about? Could these lines that formerly ran alongside one another meet? Could they possibly be set perpendicular? Any feedback is welcome, so long as it is constructive. Also, you may not use any characters, ideas, places, or what have you that I present here without my explicit permission. A note: This is a story which I began over a year ago, but never got around to finishing- it feels about time to really get it going. Now, there are a couple of things about the story, and myself, that need to be said. First and foremost, there's a slow start, but by the third-fourth chapter things should be speeding up a bit. Secondly, in regards to release speed and/or word count per chapter, I make no promises- my schedule is fairly random, and in regards to word count, I will cut off any chapter at any point that feels appropriate to me- that may include cliffhangers, if necessary. I'm not trying to reach a specific word count, I am trying to create a cohesive story, with pseudo-appropriate chapter breaks. This means I will also not rush a half-baked release for the sake of getting a release out. Thirdly, I will make any edits, anywhere in the story and at any time, that strike me as necessary- typically being wording and/or formatting changes, but I may also decide to change major plot points- in that case I would put a notification in the next chapter released. Finally, and most importantly, I am a Christian; this story is intended to at least moderately reflect those values. So, if you particularly dislike any of these things, feel free to look elsewhere, and don't let the door hit you on the way out. God bless, friends.
