The Baseball Star

"Jake! Jake! Come on! Get up!" Noah's voice dragged me out of my sleep, causing me to groan. He laughed. "Get up! Time for school!"

I groaned again and flopped over, pulling my pillow over my head. 

He started to shake my whole bed. "Come on! Let's go already!"

With a huff, I rolled out of bed and faced the wide-awake Noah. "Why are you so excited?"

Noah just bounced around happily. He pointed at the shirt he laid on my bed. "Don't forget to wear your shirt! The whole team is going too so you don't want to miss out." He headed for the door. "I'll be in the kitchen. Hurry up already."

I squinted at him until he left, closing the door behind him. I lifted the shirt off the bed, taking a minute to get a better look at it. 

After yesterday's game, an assistant coach passed them out with instructions to wear them to school the next day.
