Catching Jane

I throw myself into practice, pushing myself so hard that even Coach doesn’t manage to find a single point of criticism. 


The exercise and drills do enough to distract me from the shit show that happened yesterday, but the second I take a break, everything comes rushing back. I don’t know what happened and when everything changed, but Jane’s sudden flip into distancing herself from me was so unexpected that it just left me feeling stranded. 


She wouldn’t even speak to me. How was I supposed to fix something if I didn’t even know what was broken?


“It just sounds like things got heated, man,” Oli points out as we finish up the last drill section. 


“You think?” I ask gruffly. “I just wish I knew what happened. One of the worst things is that she ended up defending some random friend of hers instead of just listening to me, or telling me what the problem was. I knew that bastard was trouble.”
