One Week Earlier
Austin POV
"Feels good to be back, boys" I smile as I step unto the field. "We literally have three more weeks until the game. 3 weeks" I emphasize, raising three fingers. "It means we've got to really step up our game and make up for lost time, because we are walking away with THAT TROPHY!"
The boys are all riled up, clapping and cheering as my smile broadens. I've missed this.
"Alright, everyone, two laps and then some exercises." I stand proudly with coach's whistle and blow.
And, they're off.
Hot, sweaty, and ready to work out, we pair off to assist one another, Jason making his way towards me.
"Hey Grey, I need a partner." One of the guys call out.
I quickly scan the team. "Why, where's Pete?"
I didn't miss when his eyes flick to Jason. I guess Jason knows.
