“Listen up, team This is Sasha Joiner,” Coach Caz says I look up, and irl I've ever seen She’s young She's not wearing any makeup She's all freckles and sunshine Her curly red hair is shoulder length, and all I want to do is wrap a tendril around er and see if it’s as soft as it looks

“Why are you introducing us to a new cheerleader?” My best friend, Blake Paxton, asks from his seat next to me We are in the first-floor conference room at the team headquarters in Portland We don’t usually co is here and not out in Beaverton at the stadiuon Alphas Football is my life As such, professional football has its perks, but the love of the ga I hear a lot offroh; Coach always has so up his sleeve

“She isn’t a cheerleader!" Coach Caz shouts Coach only has two volu knee injury led hi in disbelief She’s gorgeous, and I want her to be mine

“An assistant?” Jamal Carter, a wide receiver, shouts from behind me

“Shut up, assholes,” Coach says

“Who is she, coach?” I say, brokering the peace

“She is your new tight end You knoe’ve had shit luck in that position since Colin Meyers was injured two years ago I decided to think outside the box Ask her about her stats

“I’m sorry, what?” Someone asks from behind me, but I can’t make who it is

“Rest assured, Sasha is h school team”

“Hey, guys I ae me before you see me in action” I’d love to see her in action, I think to myself

“Great Get with Meyers He’ll show you the ropes Practice in thirty et out of here”

Outside in the hallway, she coine that scent wrapped up in rip, man You can’t fuck her in the hallway Can I? No, better not I wouldn’t want anyone to see her that way

“Hey, I’e to say

“I know,” she says, giggling a little “Sasha,” she says, extending her hand

“Nice to meet you, Sasha” Her name sounds exotic to my ears

“So what are these ropes you’re going to show me They already showed me my locker room at the stadium”
