I wrote this because of my love for sports manga and my appreciation for the Dead or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyball games. Also a lot of you writers make excellent girl on girl stories that inspire me. I hope you enjoy this series I'm working on. This installment is meant to build up to a greater sexual encounter later, so it doesn't climax entirely... sorry.
as always please afford me some courtesy.

Hanna and Jennifer had been friends for a few years. They met on the volleyball team back in junior college and became close bonding over their appreciation of the sport. This bond between the two of them translated into fantastic chemistry on the which attracted interest from bigger programs. The attention scouts were giving to them caused a lot of resentment among their teammates. The resentment only drew them closer, so when it appeared that the two of them would not end up in the same program, the duo decided to go pro by transitioning to beach volleyball.
The change had its pros and cons. The girls found being on the beach more often to be a major positive, and the fact that it would just be the two of them was exciting. However they'd been used to playing on hardwood, so running on the sand court proved to be challenging at first. Another challenge they faced was the stronger competition, but through perseverance they achieved some success in the United States and were invited to compete on the international stage. Upon receiving the email inviting them to a tournament in Eastern Europe, Jennifer hurried over to Hanna's apartment.
"Varna, Bulgaria?" Hanna asked befuddled from what Jennifer had just told her. "When I picture competing in Europe, I usually imagine Spain or Italy. Not.... Bulgaria."
"It would be our first international competition." Jennifer replied with a grin.
Hanna sat and contemplated the idea, and eventually agreed saying, "Honestly, I'm sick of the Great Lakes... Why not?"
"Exactly!" Jennifer replied shaking in excitement. "I can't wait to contact the event organizers."
As Jennifer left the room, Hanna sat and thought about what could happen in Bulgaria. There probably was going to be a decent amount of prize money if they won, but could they win? It took a long time for the two of them to become competitive after leaving junior college. There were a lot of losses that were tough to swallow. The thought of suffering a humiliating defeat on the international stage started to loom in Hanna's mind.
'What if we just crumble?' She thought as she looked down at her feet.
"What's wrong?" Jennifer asked as she walked back into the room.
"I'm just thinking..." Hanna sighed.
"Are you worried about losing?" Jennifer asked as she sat down next to Hanna placing an arm around her. "It's okay to be scared."
