When I woke up Thursday morning, the first thing I did was glance towards Noah's bed. Sure enough, he wasn't there. I didn't know anyone as dedicated and as practice-crazy as him.
I left my room and ran into Zeke, who was sweating like it was already a hundred degrees outside. He nodded at me before going into his own room, presumably to take a shower. I guess I did know someone just as dedicated and practice-crazy as Noah. His older brother, Zeke. Well, technically, our older brother.
With that in mind, I happily went through my morning routine.
"What's got you so happy?" Dave asked as I ate my breakfast.
"Probably happy that Jeremy is coming to practice today?" Kyle wondered.
I shook my head. "I'm just happy that you guys are my brothers too."
Dave was taken aback. "Ah! Thanks Jake!"
"We're in the same boat as Jeremy Patterson." Kyle said in awe. "Wow."
