Chapter 176

October

I’m beyond intimidated as I walk with my hand tucked into Mason’s along the family section of the football stadium. This week we’d gotten the call that Caleb would be playing in the Auburn game and everyone who could in the MTF is with us. That includes Whitney, Ryan, and Stella. Part of my intimidation is watching this game with Whitney.

“Remember last time we were here?” She smiles over at Ryan as he carries Stella, wearing a cheerleading uniform. She’s got stickers on her cheeks and carries a pom pom in her hand.

“I do.” he gives her a look that says they only see each other.

“Yeah we have a lot in common with that.” She hits elbows with me.

“We do?”

I know zero about football, and I have a feeling I’m way out of my element with the rest of them, including Stella. Pretty sure Stella knows more than I do, but I also know I wouldn’t miss Caleb’s debut for the world.
