On the way back to the school, I sent a few texts. To Jeremy. Zeke. And Kaylee. Jeremy didn't reply right away; maybe he was already asleep. Zeke replied almost immediately like he was waiting. Mom or Dad probably sent a bunch of updates as he played his own game. A game that his team had won as well. I kind of expected a reply from Kaylee, but got nothing. Maybe she was sleeping already. She did say the painkillers made her really drowsy.

The drive home was incredibly long. Two hours after a night game and it was practically bed time.

"Don't you dare skip school tomorrow." Coach demanded as the bus pulled into the school parking lot. "You boys better not forget that you're student-athletes. And the student part comes first. I want to see a whole team of scholar athletes when we do our end of the year banquet."

"When's the banquet this year?" Jason asked.

"We should do it after I get drafted." Kyle said. "That way we can just keep on celebrating."
