The Hitting Zone

Not much more was said about the Captain situation. Instead, we talked about weekend plans now that school was out.

Noah rubbed his bulging stomach as we got back in the car. "I can't wait to sleep in tomorrow. No school, no workouts, no plans."

"Who said that you get to sleep in tomorrow?" Zeke asked.

Noah paused, holding his belly. "..."

"Better go to bed early, kid." Dave laughed.

"I thought it would be good if all of us went on a jog together." Zeke said, glancing back at Dave before focusing on the road. "We should run every morning we can."

"We don't leave soon enough!" Dave cried dramatically.

"Is this happening all summer??" Noah asked. "What about our summer class?"

"Sunrise is at 5:45am in the summer. We can hit the pavement at 6 and be back in time for you to shower before class." Zeke said.

"Is it too late to regret staying home for the summer?" Noah despaired.
