CHAPTER 26
BASKETBALL COURT
Luckily the school’s basketball court was big so it was filled to the brink with people awaiting for the match to begin.
The soccer and handball game was also going on at this time so the audience can choose which one they would want to watch.
Of course majority of people choose to watch the basketball game. Who would want to miss seeing Alex (Abbie) playing??
Even those schooling in other universities have heard of him and they want to see him in person to know how handsome he is…
Abbie already changed to the school’s official jersey. She was sitting in the dressing room, biting her nail.
She always have a panic attack when about to do something big.
“Can’t believe the almighty Alexander Leighton is having a panic attack,, so funny.” Tyler laughed as he wore his jersey.
“C’mon bro! You can’t start having a panic attack now,, everything will be fine okay?” Everett muttered
Abbie took deep breaths and nodded, trying to revive her self confidence..
“Alright,, let’s do it.. Let’s win the cup!?” Abbie said loudly.
“Yes captain!!” His other members replied enthusiastically.
Tyler rolled his eyes and left the room. Alex and the other members left the room too
“And here comes,,, Sunnyside College!!” The emcee presented and people began cheering as the opponent team made their entry..
“Now we have the…. L&C University!!!” He said and people began screaming madly as Abbie and the team made their entry..
? L&C University will win again. With Alex in our team, nothing can stop us!!
? OMFG!! That’s the Alex guy!! He’s so handsome!??
? Those biceps and those pink lips!!
Abbie forced a smile as she waved at the girls screaming Alex’s name.
“Must he always have this much admirers??” She thought..
Her eyes caught Alex who was standing with the cheerleaders, already changed in their outfit. He gave her a thumbs up and she nodded before looking front.
“Go Alex!! Go baby!!” Beauty kept screaming to the top of her voice. She was sitting in the audience seat.
Lately, Beauty noticed Alex has been distant with girls in general. She thought that maybe he’s playing hard to get.
Violet who was sitting not far from her hissed and rolled eyes..
Abbie and four other members stood on the stage, facing five opponent members.
The referee blew the whistle and threw the ball in the air then the match began..
“Go L&C University, you’re the best.. We’ll win the cup, we’ll win the day.. Yay! Yay! Yay!” The cheerleaders did their job.
“Dmmit!!” Everett cvrsed when the opponent team scored 2 points..
“The match isn’t over” Abbie patted his back and he nodded then smiled.
They continued the game till the first half was over and they gave them 10 minutes break
The score was at 40-36 in favor of Sunnyside College.
“They’re quite good” Everett said, breathing heavily after gulping down water.
“Yes but it’s not the time nor the place to give up. 4 points difference is nothing, we’ll catch up and then we’ll win this match who’s with me!” Abbie said
? Yes!!!!
“Since when did you began giving life inspirational quotes huh?” Everett teased.
“10 minute’s over, let’s go and win this cup!!” Abbie said and they began screaming while going back to play
Abbie paused beside Tyler..
“If you play again solo, I’ll replace you” Abbie said and without waiting for his reply, she went off.
“Who the fk does he think he is!!” Tyler gritted his teeth.
The second half began and this time around L&C University aren’t joking at all..
The game became so intense when Everett scored a two points and it was now at 50-50
People like Violet and Beauty were almost standing due to how intense it was.
Even Zoey and Whitney wasn’t left out..
(Alma didn’t come to watch because she was warming up for the foot race)
It went on like that till there was just 5 minutes left
4 minutes..
3 minutes…
Even the cheerleaders stopped to watch.. Alex was almost biting his fingers.
40 seconds remaining, Abbie succeeded in taking the ball from the opponent. She dribbled the person who came at her and then jumped before shooting at the net.
The ball hit the ring of the net and began rolling round the ring
Alex’s eyes widened, praying for it to enter.
It rolled and rolled till it finally entered the net.
? Yayyyyy!!!!!!
The hall went in an uproar and the final whistle was blown.
It ended with a score of 43-40, in favor of L&C University.
“We did it!!” The members jumped on Abbie, except Tyler.
Abbie laughed in happiness as they all went down. She looked at Alex who was smiling, he nodded at her.
She smiled back.

ALEX AND ABBIE : CHAPTER 21-30
Alex walked out of the changing room, back into his normal outfit.
“Actually, it’s not bad wearing a crop top” He thought
Suddenly, someone pulled him to an alley and the pinned him against the wall.
His eyes widened but a frown settled on his face when he saw it was Lucas and he almost rolled his eyes.
“Babe,, I really missed you. Why weren’t you replying my texts?” Lucas said
“I’m sorry,, was so hooked up in training for this day” Alex said with a forced smile on his face.
“Really? But I always see you around my brother” Lucas said.
“Tell me, is he bothering you??” Lucas asked seriously.
“Oh no! Not at all,, we were project partners remember?”
“Alright, I was wondering if you could come sleep over tomorrow at our house” Lucas asked, scratching his head.
“Uhh, I don’t know but I’ll think about it” Alex smiled and made to leave but he held his hand
“What again?” He mentally rolled his eyes.
“I love you babe” Lucas said
Alex turned to him with a force smile on his face.
“Me too Lucas” He said and left.
“Lucas? It’s not longer Lu-Lu anymore?” He thought as he watched her leave.

The festival were over and everyone were gathered outside waiting for the winner to be announced..
The president of L&C University, a tall guy in third year climbed the stage and took the mic

“And this year’s winner is… L&C University!!” He announced and screamed filled the place.
Alex’s and Blaire’s father climbed the stage to shake the hand of the school’s president as the cup was handed to him since he represents the whole school.

ALEX AND ABBIE : CHAPTER 21-30
ALEX’S CONDO.9PM
“It hurts…ahh!!” Alex rolled on the bed, holding his tummy.
Abbie who was sitting in front of Alex’s laptop kept laughing at him..
“Now you see what we ladies go through every month” Abbie kept laughing.
It just so happened that he’s in his period.. It started an hour ago..
Well Alex called Veronica and told her she’ll be staying at a friend’s house and Abbie told Lilian same too, they’re planning on using the night on finding ways to go back to their original selves.
“Now that I look at you,, maybe it’s not bad staying in your body for a while or two” Abbie smirked and Alex shot her a pillow
She resumed mocking him.
“I’m dying… God save me!! Argh!!” Alex began crying.
“Hey hush down! The neighbor will start thinking someone is getting ràpped” Abbie said but he began crying louder.
Abbie sighed and walked to the kitchen. She boiled water and poured it in a cup then handed it to him.
“Drink,, it’ll sooth the pain” She said and he immediately took it and made to gulp it but paused when it burned his lips.
Abbie walked back to the laptop and resumed her search..
“What are you searching?” Alex asked, slowly sipping on the cup.
“Since there’s no scientific explanation of what happened to us, I’m searching for the non scientific one” Abbie said.
“You mean superstitious things? It doesn’t exist” Alex said.
“I also thought swapping bodies was fake but look at us now..” Abbie turned the swivel chair to face him.
“So if I’m following your line of thinking then you’re insinuating that there’s something unusual that happened that day and that resulted to our bodies being swapped?” Alex asked standing up from the bed, walking towards her.
“Yeah” Abbie said
“But there’s nothing unusual that happened that day,, I mean we were bickering each other as usual till I forcefully kssed you and…” Alex paused and his eyes widened.
“The kss!” Abbie’s eyes widened too.
“Yeah, I kind of felt some sparks when I did that” Alex said.
“Yeah.. Me too” Abbie rubbed her chin.
“So if the kss was why our bodies got swapped,, maybe if we kss back then we’ll go back to normal” Alex said.
Abbie bit her lips at the sound of “kssing back”
“I.. I don’t know. Lucas, I’ll be-”
“You’re still thinking about that dimwit at this moment? If we don’t find a solution to what’s happening to us then you’ll never be with your precious Lucas” Alex said, slightly irritated at the mention of Lucas. Was it irritation or jealousy?
No one knows..
Abbie thought for a while and heaved deep breaths before closing her eyes and puckering her lips.
Alex twitched his face at the idea of kssing his own lips but nevertheless, he closed his eyes and leaned down to were she was sitting.
And like that, their lips slowly met…
