It was a long quiet ride back to our school. No one chatted or dared to gossip with Coach in a bad mood. I had so many questions for Noah, but chose to wait until we got back to our car where it was safe.
Dave beat me to it though. "I can't believe you agreed so readily to go down to JV." He helped us packed the trunk and then we all got in.
"It's not like I could say no." Noah said calmly. "Coach knows what's best. He himself won't be at the varsity game Monday."
"I just thought it was weird that he picked you first." Kyle said from the driver's seat.
"I think it's because I'm the vice-captain." Noah said nonchalantly. "He needs someone to lead a short-handed team. Garret was already picked to pitch on Monday. He has to pair up with Oscar and try to lead a depleted varsity team. I'm tasked with the lower level. So I understand."
Trying to get caught up on things like laundry and cleaning my room. Needed to get four new tires for my car *cue the tears* and started to go through my missed notifications.
