OceanofPDF.com OceanofPDF.com Chapter 5 Gray The walk to the nearby caf\u00e9 is quiet and slightly awkward. Zeus trots eagerly between us, his tail wagging enthusiastically. It seems his daring escape earlier wasn\u2019t enough excitement for the pooch. I steal glances at the stunning redhead beside me when I can, and when our gazes meet on occasion, my heart pounds in my chest. I might be making a huge mistake in inviting her out for coffee, but after I regretted her slipping away earlier so much, I just couldn\u2019t help myself.<\/p>\n

I know women can\u2019t be trusted, but this one has already gotten under my skin. I just hope this spontaneous little date doesn\u2019t end with me regretting it all. We settle down at an outside table of the caf\u00e9 with two cups of coffee and Zeus patiently laying beneath my seat. Every so often, as if to remind me that he\u2019s there, he gives my sneaker a little nip to remind me to be nice to his best friend. Piper seems stunned by how the pup has taken to me, and though I\u2019d considered myself a cat person up until this point, even I have to admit the dog is endearing.<\/p>\n

Something about his cartoonish, larger than life features on his itty-bitty little body is bloody adorable. Plus, how can you not love a dog named Zeus? \u201cSo…\u201d she says, dipping her spoon in her mug and giving it a little swirl. When she looks at me, I can\u2019t tell if she\u2019s blushing or if she\u2019s just warming up with the morning sunlight.<\/p>\n

Either way, she\u2019s beautiful. I don\u2019t want to blink and miss even a second of her. \u201cSo, you said you wanted to interview Coach, right?\u201d I ask. She nods, brightening slightly. \u201cYes, I work for the local paper. I just started recently so I’m trying to build a name for myself. I was hoping for an interview with someone on your team would give me a nice boost, especially with how well you lot are performing in the National Cup matches.\u201d<\/p>\n

Though Piper had been acting a little shy, that seems to melt away as she starts talking about her job. But, just as quickly as she became more buoyant and happy, she deflates again. \u201cBut I reckon I\u2019ve lost my chance,\u201d she sighs. \u201cMy deadline is in two days and I don\u2019t think your coach will have a spare second.\u201d I stroke my chin, a faint smirk dancing on my face. \u201cThen how about you interview me, eh? You just need someone on the team, right?\u201d<\/p>\n

Coach\u2019s whistle blows sharply, piercing through the sound of the other rugby players grunting and wheezing. We\u2019ve been dashing back and forth across the field, weaving between one another as we pass the rugby ball between us, for hours straight. Our training was supposed to end earlier this afternoon, but now evening is swiftly falling. A cool wind blows as stars just barely begin to sparkle. This practice had been an especially intense one.<\/p>\n

With the final round of the National Cup looming, we all want to be in peak condition for the big game. Finally, Coach\u2019s whistle blows one last time, signaling the end to the drill. \u201cI reckon you\u2019re bloody trying to kill me, Coach!\u201d wails Ryder as he collapses dramatically against the soft earth.<\/p>\n

Jax breathlessly chuckles from where he stands. His broad body is hunched, his hands on his knees as he gulps in shallow breaths of air like a man in the desert might gulp down water. \u201cI\u2019m just trying to keep you lot in shape!\u201d says the coach before he checks his watch with a wince. \u201cAlright. I\u2019ve got a conference call with the union that I’m about to miss.<\/p>\n

You blokes get some shut eye. See you bright and early!\u201d \u201cThanks, Coach!\u201d calls Kai as the burly coach of the Auckland team turns and marches across the field towards an office tucked away near the stands. \u201cSuck up,\u201d Ryder mutters with a roll of his eyes.<\/p>\n

Kai just smirks back at his best friend. A rough hand claps at my shoulder as a chiseled, Samoan player ambles past me. Though my strong legs feel like jelly, Manu looks perfectly content. It\u2019s like he\u2019s barely even broken a sweat. \u201cHow ya going, newbie?\u201d Ryder calls over to me from where he\u2019s still sprawled in the grass. \u201cAll good?\u201d A short laugh escapes my throat. \u201cI\u2019ve been with the team for almost two years, bro. I don\u2019t reckon I’m a newbie anymore.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ryder just laughs. He slowly pushes himself back up to his feet and stretches back and forth.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
