Alya and you have been bestfriends since pre-k, she loves you to death and more and never wanted to be apart from you when you two were little.
once you two started highschool alya took interest in cheer, and you took interest in basketball, you both made the team and alya was so excited to cheer, as a year passes alya noticed the major glow up you, how you became way taller and pretty muscular. But she pushed any feelings down cause she didnt want to ruin this amazing friendship. But any time she would cheer during your games she couldnt help but feel a rush of blush, and be mesmerized.
After school the cheerleaders were practiced in the same gym as the basketball players, the girls in the cheer team noticed how Alya would get distracted by you, when they took a break they sat on the bleachers with her and teased her about till she finally came clean
"Fine yes I MIGHT like him!"
the girls giggled and they looked behind her and saw that you were there, they kinda became quiet and giggled a little bit more
