Chapter 26 Six: Gage

• Bringing Stella to practice was a mistake. A huge one.
• That much becomes obvious the second we arrive.
• I’ve never had a girlfriend before, so I didn’t recognize the error in judgment I made until now, when it’s too late. When every single one of my teammates is gawking at her from the field. All of the groupies that watch from the stands zero in on her like vultures. I have the urge to pick her up again and leave. Take her home, lock the door and block out the world.
