Practice had ended and it was one of the most intense ones since I joined. We had lost our first two official games and Coach Ruff had sounded like he had had enough of it. I hated losing. Jack hated losing. Everyone hated losing. It sucked.

I changed into some sweats and headed over to the trainer's office for some ice packs for my knees. I just knew I was going to feel it later. I headed into JT's office, but Jack was in there already.

"What's wrong with you?" I asked, waking up to him sitting on the bed, putting my arm on his shoulder like an armrest.

"Oh so now I'm the armrest?" He asked in a joking tone. I nodded, laughing, and looked over to JT.

"What can I do for you, Piper?" JT asked.

"Ice packs please, I'm definitely gonna feel that practice tomorrow," I said, rubbing my knees. He nodded and went to go fill up two bags of ice.

"You're still coming over, right?" Jack asked, turning to me.

"Yes, yes, I am." I said, my attention now focused on him. Jack had such a goofy smile on his face. You could tell he was excited about me meeting his friend.
