Chapter 4

Where?

Orlando

You and Orlando Bloom have been friends your entire lives, you grew up together, so it was a big deal for you too when Orlando became famous. Your entire life had changed, at least when you were around him. But you always, not matter how big of star he was, tried to treat him the same. But if there's one thing you knew about Orlando, it was his competitiveness.

Back in the summer of 2012, you and Orlando were hanging out and playing basketball at his house while Miranda sat poolside, tanning.

"Alright, how about a game of HORSE?" I asked.

"Okay, but what's in it for me if I win?" Orlando questioned. Miranda chuckles at her husband's competitive nature.

"Ugh, you can throw me in the pool!" You say, jokingly.

"Nah, let's make this serious, how about if I win you pay for dinner tonight?"

"Okay, and if I win?" You ask, intrigued.

Having never beaten Orlando at this, he half jokingly says, "Pfff, if you win you can sleep with Miranda dude."

'What!?!?!?" Miranda screams, baffled by the bet.

"Deal." you say, shaking Orlando's hand.

"Please don't tell me you just did what I think you did!?!?!" Miranda angrily says.

"Relax, babe. I've never lost a game to him or anyone else." Orlando cockily said.

Miranda doesn't seem at all put to ease by this fact, but doesn't reply. You toss him the ball and say:

"Shoot for ball."

Orlando tosses it back and says: "Keep it, I'll win anyways."

Miranda is further infuriated by this, but remains silent.

You back up to the foul line of the other side of the court and just chuck it up, not expecting anything.

Swish!

Both Orlando and Miranda stand by, utterly amazed. Orlando tries, but miserably misses.

"H" You warn.

You take the ball again, and with nothing to lose but a few bucks, go to half court and shoot it like Kareem, and to your surprise, you drain that one too.

"What the fuck did you do!?!?" Miranda screams at her husband, unable to contain herself.

"Babe, I got it!" Orlando screams back, clearly distraught as he misses another shot.

"H-O" You caution your old friend.

This time you go back to the other end of the court, and your friend breathes a sigh of relief as you miss for the first time. He steps to the three point line, needing a confidence booster, and drains it. However, you are unable to make it when you step up.

Then he flashes a smile at Miranda and says: "See? What'd I say."

"H" he informs you.

This time he moves to the side of the three point line and drains it again. Your chances of winning this game were rapidly dwindling as you miss yet another shot.

"H-O" he tells you.

"See babe, nothing to worry about, I could beat him blindfold." The moment the words came out of his mouth a smile appeared on his face and fear onto Miranda's.

"No, no, no. Don't you dare!!" Miranda screams at her husband. However, it is too late as he lines his shot up then places a hand over his eyes.

Clunk!

The ball barely hit the backboard, much less the rim. You step up, and do the same shot, and somehow make it.

"Oh shit" Orlando says as he steps up to try to same shot he just missed.

Not to the surprise of anyone, Orlando misses that too.

"H-O-R" You warn

You try the same shot again to test your luck, but miss it. A little frazzled, Orlando steps up to try a normal 3-pointer and misses again. Seeing an opportunity, you run in and do a left handed layup. When Orlando tries, he miserably fails.

"H-O-R-S" You alert him of his near loss.

You try the same shot again, but the ball just nearly falls off the rim, as Miranda and Orlando both breath a huge sigh of relief. Then Orlando steps back three steps from the three point line and drains it.

"Yess" He cheers.

"Hey! Don't get cocky! Eyes on the prize." Miranda yells at him.

You step up and take the same shot, but are miles off of the basket.

"H-O-R" Orlando taunts

Thinking of Miranda's warning, Orlando takes the same shot and makes it again. You, once again miss it.

"H-O-R-S" Orlando brags

"All tied up" You say, smiling at this intense contest.

Orlando takes the same exact shot for the third time in a row and this time he...

Does He Make It?
