Chapter 21 : Doubt

*Jane*

For the first time ever, Noah and I drive to his morning practice together. He lends me a jersey to wear over my dress and it makes for a decent outfit which I figure I’ll just change out of on my way to class.

But I like it—I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of wearing his clothes. It’s like a silent announcement to the world that he’s mine.

Noah seems to be in an excellent mood today, one that carries over even into his practice session. It’s the first time I watch the full thing and I have to admit that I don’t get it. I mean, I understand that all athletes have to train hard to maintain and improve their athleticism, and I get that baseball is a very physical sport.

But there’s something about Coach Parker that just rubs me up the wrong way.

Noah doesn’t speak of him too fondly, and now having witnessed his training sessions from start to finish, I can understand why.

The man is harsh.
