Warmth spreads through my chest, and my lips curl at the corners. He’s so sweet.
Cat:
In the car.
In traffic.
But almost at the hotel.
David:
We’ll be heading to the field soon, so I won’t be able to respond to any texts after this.
Your tickets are at the front desk. You’re sitting behind the team dugout with the other players’ families.
Cat:
Perfect.
See you soon.
David:
Cat?
Cat:
Yes?
David:
Are you sure you’re okay about the bed situation?
I can sleep on the floor.
I am not making him sleep on the floor!
Cat:
It will be fine.
Itwillbe fine.
Cat:
Please don’t worry about me.
Just focus.
David:
Knowing you’ll be there, wearing my jersey, sitting twenty feet behind me, is already making it hard to focus.
But in the best way.
I feel the car stop. “We’re here. I’ll grab your luggage.” The front door opens and closes.
