Her Perfect Distraction

Chapter 11

Tasha followed soon after and went ahead to their class. The two of them are trying their best to attend their classes as their names are already on the consideration lists of dropped-due-to-absences. One or two more absences and they get to repeat the subject next school year which will result in delay of their graduation and they really don't want that

"Hey, I gotta run" Yuri said after noticing the time, "got tennis practice"

"Let's have milktea afterwards" Kristen requested

"Yeah, sure, just send me a text to where y'all are going, bye!"  and with that, Yuri went straight to the locker rooms by the court side

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Okay, so the girls' locker room is shared by not only the girls in the tennis team but also the women's basketball and volleyball them since it is a pretty big locker room. So normally, Yuri would be there just as scheduled, get change and go to the court to do warm-ups like she would always do these past weeks, although she's been getting the attention of some of the girls there, none have actually approached her...until now.

Yuri's busy doing her warm-ups by the bleachers when the captain of the volleyball team, Gretchen came. They had a decent conversation then followed, Quinn, the so-called "ace" of the basketball team joined in the conversation so Yuri ended up talking to these girls instead of doing warm-ups. The conversation went on for about 30 minutes or so, although the conversation was good, Yuri wanted to stop and get back to training but she doesn't want to be rude so she just continued talking to them until Felix came by

"Okay, Ladies!" Felix interjected, "I'm sorry for interrupting but we need our players to be training since we have a match next week, so I'll borrow Yuri for a while"

The girls looked at Felix with an irritated look then walked passed him

"You always have good timing Felix" Quinn spoke sarcastically as she walked by

"Good thing you're the captain of the tennis team" Gretchen added, "or I would have kicked you in the balls" she smirked

"Yeah well, better luck next time"

Felix and Gretchen have always been frenemies with each other since high school. When the girls finally left, Felix sat down next to the relieved Yuri

"Thanks" Yuri spoke

"You're welcome although I would have liked to be in your place" Felix smirked then noticed the bandage covering Yuri's right cheek, "what's with the bandage? Did you get in a fight or something?"

"Sort of, I got hit by a flying microphone"

"A microphone?! How did that happen?"

"Let's just say, I stood at the wrong place at the wrong time" Yuri explained plainly, she really doesn't want to mention to Tasha'sbrother that she was the culprit.

"Well, despite that injury on your face, girls are still all over you. Someone's a ladies' girl, is it the hair? Definitely the hair" he joked and playfully touched Yuri hair

"Yeah, funny Felix" Yuri said with a raised eyebrow, and smacked his hand away from her

Felix laughed then stood, "c'mon handsome girl, the ball isn't going to play itself! You have a match next week so get to training!"

Yuri smirked and stood then lightly smacked Felix on the butt with her racket before going to the court
