Chapter 20

Jamie approached and clapped when Austin dived for a grounder. “Good catch,” he offered, grinning.

Caleb would’ve had to be blind to miss the blush spreading across Austin’s face.

“Jackson,” he reminded him.

“Yes, Jackson. Guys, this is Jamie. He’s a very important member of our team. He’s our mascot.”

“You’re the giant bunny?” Ethan howled.

Jamie nodded, but didn’t remove his gaze from Austin.

“So, Jamie, did you need anything?” Caleb asked.

“Oh, yeah. Sorry,” he said, a little sheepishly. “Um, Lucas Landry just arrived and asked where you were.”

Caleb’s heart thudded. He took a deep breath and tried to remain calm. “Oh, yeah?”

“Mmm-hmm. He said he wants to interview some of the kids and the players. He’s in the locker room.”
