CHAPTER ELEVEN

OLLY

I stepped out of the locker room and smiled when I spotted Jordan leaning against the wall. She was wearing one of my jerseys, and she had the biggest smile on her face as she looked up at me.

“There he is.” She grinned, and I made my way over to her.

“Have you been waiting out here the entire time?” I dropped my bag down beside her feet.

“Of course.” She wrapped her arms around my neck. “I had to beat off all the groupies that were waiting out here to get a piece of the MVP.”

She was full of shit. There wasn’t a single other person in the vast hallway, and I knew there hadn’t been. She was just here for me.

And I adored that about her.

“I’m sure there were so many.” I wrapped my arms around her back, and she smiled even bigger.

“A swarm of girls. They were all chanting your name. It was good practice for when you go pro.”

“If I go,” I corrected her.

“You will.” She leaned up on her tiptoes and pressed her lips against mine. “I know you will.”

“I think you have too much faith in me.” I pulled away from her and scooped up my bag before grabbing her hand in mine. “But I appreciate it.”

She blushed before tucking a piece of her hair behind her ear. “Allie said that we’re supposed to meet them at the restaurant. They were going ahead to get a table.”

“Okay. Let’s go.” I wrapped her hand in mine and pulled her behind me. I felt genuine excitement about today, and it had been a while. Not only had we just won our playoff game that we were predicted to lose, but Beck and Josie were in town.

It felt like it had been forever since I’d seen them.

Jordan kept her hand in mine the entire ride to the restaurant, and she only let go long enough for us to climb out of the car. Her hand fit in mine so perfectly, and I smiled down at her as she shifted at my side.

“You okay?”

“Yeah.” She nodded, but I could see her anxiety through her shield. “I’m just nervous.”

I stopped before we got to the door and turned to face her fully. “Nervous about what?”

“Your friends.” She motioned into the restaurant where I knew they were waiting on us. “I know that Carson doesn’t really care for me, and I’m worried that Beck will be the same. I know he’s important to you.”

“Carson likes you.” It was a half-lie. He had his moments. He just didn’t love her for me. “And Beck will too.”

“I know that he’s Frankie’s brother.” She turned her gaze away from me as she said her name, and it took my breath from my chest. Why did she have to talk about her? Why did she have to mutter the one name I had been desperate not to think about? “I feel like they are going to compare everything I do to her.”

I was the one who planted this doubt in Jordan.
