Cora walked up to Ruby and Ivan on the Virginia beach, adjusting her hat more securely on her head. Ruby saw her coming and raised a hand. Ivan whistled and waved and a pair of women who drilled on the other net grabbed their ball and rushed forward.

“Hey,” Cora said, setting her bag next to Ivan’s chair. “Going to be hot today.”

Ruby snorted. “It’s hot now, and it’s seven. Noon is going to kill it.”

“Best drink up, girls,” Ivan said, handing each of them a bottle of water. “We’re going until three today. In addition to beating everyone you face today, I expect you to make every effort to combat dehydration. Got it?” Cora rolled her head on her shoulders and drank half the bottle. He looked her up and down. “How’s the knee, young lady?”

“I ran on the sand this morning. Feels good so far.”

“That’s good.” He nodded and checked his watch. “Clementine? Lead the warm up. We’re going to play full matches.”

The tall brunette stepped in front of them and started counting off stretches. While Cora stretched her shoulders, she thought about the late-night text from Davis last night. They’d started making team cuts already. One other player who played the same position as him had already gotten cut, so she hoped that meant Davis was safe. He clarified that no one was guaranteed a spot until this training camp was over. She knew how it worked. She’d battled her way through tryouts and teams and national competitions her entire life.

It didn’t make it easier.

She realized in the last several days away from him how often she thought of him. What would happen, she wondered, when, on Valentine’s Day, that first hockey match of the Winter Games took place and they officially fulfilled the VelTech contract? Would they lose each other’s number? Or would they come back together in the fall as a couple on the Virginia University campus?

Did she want that? As she stretched her calf muscles, she seriously thought about it and decided that, yes, she definitely wanted that. How to go about letting Davis know, though? As an incredibly pragmatic person, he would want the direct approach. “Hi, Davis, I really like you and want to keep dating you for realz.”

“What did you say?” Ruby asked from her bent over position touching her toes.

Had she said that out loud? Where was her head? Blood rushed to her face that had nothing to do with being bent over at the waist. “Nothing. Just, uh….” Just what? “Just song lyrics.”

They shifted to the other leg and her knee twinged as she stretched.

“Uh-huh. Don’t think I know that song.” Ruby grinned skeptically. They strained through a few more bouncing stretches that made her hamstrings burn. “Maybe leave off the ‘for realz.’ Try to sound like an adult,” Ruby offered.

Cora smiled in embarrassment. Thinking about saying it like that made her chuckle out loud, even as she and Ruby took their places on the court. Digging the balls of
