I throw her a wink. "You only turn twelve once, right?"
She squeals as she wraps her arms around the massive container and sets it in the cart. We continue down the aisle, grabbing some of the snacks from our original list.
"So, have you known these girls long?" I ask, still thinking about her comment from earlier. I've seen her friends at practice a time or two, but not enough to notice how they interact off the field.
"Three of them, yeah, but our team changes a little each year. The other three I just met this season. They're so cool." She tosses a bag of trail mix in.
"Well, I'm excited to meet them."
She smiles briefly before it falls again. "I still wish I could have invited Norah and Sera," she grumbles.
I smother a laugh.This girl's all over the place."Come on," I say, leaning closer to her. "Let's go grab some sugar."
Grant
Hey guys.
Jo
He lives!
Owen
What's up, bro?
Grant
I mostly need Tessa.
Margot
You do know you can text her separately, right?
Jo
And what does Lady Tess have that we don't, G-Money?
Grant
A college degree.
Owen
Bro, seriously? You realize I have two…
Margot
I literally just graduated, Grant.
Grant
It's not the same.
Margot
And why's that?
