We’re playing San Diego so we’re driving down later this evening

Had an early morning batting practice, but now I’m enjoying some time in bed with a coffee

Isabella

And why is it that you’re texting me from bed?

I feel like that borders on inappropriate

Fletcher

Noooooo

Inappropriate would be me telling you what I’m doing in bed ;)

I choke on the sip of my coffee, coughing to clear the scalding liquid I accidentally inhaled.

“You good over there?” Jordan asks, sitting next to me in the repair shop’s small waiting room, an eyebrow raised.

“Yep. Fine. Totally fine,” I choke out before I turn around and hunch over, shielding my phone from view as I type my reply.

Isabella

Again

Ew, stop

Fletcher

I’m only messing with you

I’m having my morning coffee and watching some game tape to prepare

Isabella

Sure

“Game Tape”

That’s what they call it nowadays

Fletcher

It’s true!

Isabella

Whatever you say, hotshot

Fletcher

Oooo yes, call me that again

Isabella

UGH don’t make it weird

Now I’m never saying it again
