A Few Weeks Later

        Michela can finally play tennis again, and just in time. She was recently in touch with a tennis coach at Stony Brook University, her dream college, and she had a huge tennis match today and he was going to be scouting her. So that is where we find the young adult, scrambling all over the place getting her gear ready and her twin watching her freaking out. Massimo finally grabbed her arm,

        "Michela, you are going to do AMAZING, Coach Derrick is going to love you and everything is going to be fine. Everyone will be there to support you, I will, your boyfriend will be there, your best friends, everyone. We are here for you Michela, you will rock it just like you always do,"

        Michela sighed and nodded, she hugged him,

        "Thanks, Mass...that's just what I needed to hear,"

        Massimo smirked,

        "Of course it is doofus, now let's get going, we have around an hour left,"

        Michela nodded and the two twins left. They went outside and got into an uber, they triple checked that it was the right uber this time, and left to get to the courts.

At the Courts

        Justin was pacing,

        "Where are they?"

        Nicholas rolled his eyes,

        "Calm down Justin, Michela and Massimo both texted me saying that they were almost here,"

        Ashley nodded,

        "Yeah, don't worry Justin...they are both capable of coming here safe,"

        Jake smirked,

        "Well, Massimo is..."

        Bryce swatted his arm,

        "Be nice,"

        Everyone laughed. Jesse smiled,

        "I am so excited about the match,"

        Everyone nodded, fully agreeing with the younger boy, Ashley wrapped her arm around Nicholas and he smiled down at her, Nicholas smirked,

        "That girl better hurry up, she said that she had to be thirteen minutes earl-"

        "I'm here!"

        They all turned around to see Michela jogging up to them with Massimo. They all smiled. Justin hugged her and kissed her head,

        "About time,"

        Michela rolled her eyes,

        "You guys are just early, I arrived on time,"

        Everyone laughed. Michela thanked and hugged everyone because she really appreciated that they took the time to come see her play at one of the biggest matches of her career. She was excited and nervous, but she was ready. She quickly introduced herself to the Stony Brook Tennis coach and went on the court so her match could start. Michela won the racquet spin and started serving. Throughout the match, the group watched in anticipation as Michela won and lost. Justin and Massimo stood next to each other near the gate to watch closely, they cringed together when she hit it in the net, or double-faulted that one time. The score was now 6 all. Last point in the tiebreaker, in Michela's favor. Everyone held their breaths as they watched. It was Michela's serve. She tossed the ball high in the air, she jumped up and slammed the ball, the ball sped into the corner of the box, Michela shuffled to the right spot in the middle behind the baseline. Her opponent, Danielle, ran to the ball and stabilized herself before slamming against the ball using her powerful forehand cross-court. Michela saw the shot before she hit it, running to the corner and immediately used her topspin forehand to hit it down the line, quickly recovering back. Danielle ran to the ball and hit it crosscourt using her backhand and slid after hitting it, crouching slightly to recover. Michela smirked and skillfully switched hands while running to get to the ball, Danielle's eyes widened in shock as she saw Michela slam the ball down the line using a powerful lefty forehand. Danielle sprinted to the ball and just managed to hit a lob. Michela ran to the net and turned her body, lifting her racquet directly behind her shoulder, everyone watched as Michela did a powerful overhead, slamming the ball into the court and over the gate. Everyone cheered. Michela smiled and Danielle shook her hand,

        "Good game, Michela,"

        Michela smiled,

        "Good game, Danielle,"

        Michela grabbed her water and towel and made her way off the court, that was when Coach Derrick came up to her,

        "Miss Kastle, may I speak to you?"

        Michela smiled and nodded. Derrick and Michela sat down further down from where everyone else was, they watched sneakily. Derrick smiled at Michela,

        "That was a very skillful trick that you pulled on your opponent in that tiebreaker Michela,"

        Michela smiled proudly,

        "Yeah, I hurt my wrist a while ago and so I played lefty for a few months. I was alright at being a lefty so I decided that I wanted to keep on practicing like that for a secret weapon, and I think it worked out well in this match,"

        Derrick nodded and smiled,

        "I see promise in you young lady,"

        Derrick stood up and Michela too, Derrick smiled and stook out his hand,

        "Stony Brook University would be lucky to have a bright young lady such as yourself, I want to offer you a spot on the team after talking to the admissions team about it,"

        Michela's eyes widened,

        "Thank you so much!"

        She shook his hand immediately while smiling at him, Derrick chuckled and nodded,

        "It was a pleasure to watch you play Miss Kastle, I look forward to more in the future,"

        Michela smiled brightly and nodded,

        "I won't let you down, Coach Derrick,"

        Derrick smiled and nodded,

        "You have a lot of promise in you kid, now go and celebrate with your family,"

        Michela's smile widened and she nodded. She walked away from Coach Derrick and Massimo and everyone immediately walked up to her. Massimo grabbed her hand,

        "What did he say?"

        Michela smirked,

        "I got in,"

        Everyone yelled out in happiness and she was pulled into a huge group hug. They all laughed and Michela smiled,

        "Thanks, guys, for coming out here to watch me play,"

        Jake smirked,

        "You played great, for a weirdo,"

        Michela laughed and they slowly left the park where she played. Nicholas smirked,

        "You know, since Halloween is coming up, Ash and I were thinking about going to this Masquerade Ball type thing, we should all go, it's in a week,"

        Everyone looked at each other and nodded. Bryce smirked,

        "I'm down, I want to show off my costume,"

        Michela smirked and poked his stomach,

        "And what would that costume be?"

        Bryce smirked,

        "Werewolf,"

        Michela laughed and nodded,

        "Suits you very well, anyway, Mass we should get going, thanks again guys, BYE!"

        Michela grabbed Massimo's hand and the twins left while everyone smiled and waved at them. Jesse looked up at Nicholas,

        "Will Brandy and I be able to come?"

        Nicholas scratched the back of his neck,

        "How bout this, since you can't come we will have our own party beforehand, that way we can make sure that we all have rides to the party, and maybe hang out after since everyone has two weeks off from school,"

        Everyone nodded and was excited, Justin smiled, excited to spend more time with Michela.
