I catch sight of my youngest brother, Rylan, leading Calista to the basement. Lucky for him Marla and Dad are outside. Of course, theyâre more lenient with him than they were with me. When I was younger, Clara and I had to stop having sleepovers at a certain age and had to start leaving the door open. As if Iâd do anything with Clara. Sheâs my best friend.
Speaking of which, all the girls, including Clara, are now huddled around lounge chairs in the back, soaking up the sun, drinking margaritas, and gossiping.
âItâs like they have nothing else to do,â I say, joining my brothers in the pool. Cam throws me the ball and I shoot.
âWell, itâs summer bash. Weâre not supposed to do anything,â Fisher says. He rarely gets a day off.
I canât complain. Since Iâm in off-season, every day could be like today if I wanted. I spend most of my time working out during the day and my evenings with Clara, either going miniature golfing, where we bet who pays for ice cream, or bingeing the latest Netflix show. Weâve been doing the same thing every off-season since I got drafted. My life is pretty fucking fantastic.
Cade sinks into the water. âWhen do you report back?â
âAugust as usual.â
Cade holds up his hands for the ball and Cam throws it to him. âIâm thinking about bringing Presley down to see a game. We need to get away before the wedding.â
âAbout that,â I say. Dumbass decided to get married during the fall, which means I have to fly in and out. âIâm flying in on Friday night, and Iâm out at the crack of dawn on Sunday. We play on the east coast, so the time difference is killing me.â
âGood thing youâre not the groom,â he says.
âYou couldnât do summer?â I ask.
He points at me, then looks at Fisher and Cam and laughs. âGet a load of this guy. Some of us work during tourist season.â
âAnd while youâre off, Iâm getting my ass reamed on the field.â
Speaking of which, I crack my back. It hasnât been the same since I took a hit my last game this season. Iâm getting older. Not nearly close to retirement, but the hits, man, theyâre hurting more and more.
âYou also make bank, so I donât wanna hear it,â Fisher mumbles.
All of us were quarterbacks in high school, but only I made it pro. Adam mightâve had the chance, but he found love too young. That was his demise. My brothers support me, donât get me wrong, but I think a small part of them wonders if it couldâve been them. Not that they donât love their lives, but all they see is the glamour in my job. Not the ice baths, the pain, the media, the pressure of performing. Even during the summers, I worry my workouts arenât enough and if I should be training more.
âI do a lot to earn that money.â
âYou play, like, sixteen games a year for that money,â Cam chimes in, taking the ball from Cade and shooting it.
