After conditioning in the parking lot I was fairly certain I was going to throw up or drop dead. Or throw up and then immediately drop dead, and I clearly wasn't the only one.
"Why does he go the hardest on us the first roadie of the season?" Ryder spit in the grass beside the asphalt before laying down beside me by the curb.
"I think we can sue? This has to be against some kind of child endangerment laws, right?" Vlasic piped up as he dumped a water bottle down the back of his shirt.
"We willingly sign up to play, not only one of the most grueling sports, but in the top program in the country for under 18 athletes. No, we cannot sue. We knew what we were getting into." Turcs explained as he sipped a gatorade.
"I call bullshit, he's running children in a parking lot. Children!" Danny proclaimed.
"We're hardly children, Daniel." Cole added. "I mean speak for yourself because you are certainly questionable but just because we're all technically minors does not mean we're children."
"That is actually exactly what that means, Cole." Ryder said, flatly.
"In a court of law, anyone under the age of 18 is a child. Younger children are referred to as tender age children but we are all children none the less." Marshall rambled as we all gave him questionable stares. "What? I watch a lot of crime and justice type shows. Get over it."
"Alrighty then." I stated. "So basically fuck you Cole, you're an idiot."
"Alright Beecher, there's no need to get mean." Cole said.
Coach dismissed us from his torment and we all made our way back inside the hotel for showers and food.
"Are we doing team dinner tonight? I can't remember if we do that in preseason." Case asked as we walked down the hallway and broke off to our separate rooms.
"No, Coach W said it's a free for all tonight." Owen declared as he scanned into his room.
"Sweet, I'm ordering so much room service." I said to Boldy as we entered our room.
"I got first shower." Matt said as I reached for the menu.
"Tell me what you want then, man." I held it out for him.
"Just get me a cheeseburger with as many fries as they'll send up here. Ask for it rare." He shut the door.
That honestly sounded amazing to me so I called down for two cheeseburgers, a side of bacon, pounds of french fries, and two cokes. I mindlessly scrolled through Twitter while waiting for the shower to be free. Once Boldy was out I took the hottest shower I could manage to steam the bathroom up and destress my muscles. When I emerged our food was being delivered.
"Oh fuck yeah." I roughly dried my hair and threw my towel to the side before going absolutely ham on my bacon cheeseburger.
I was barely surviving a food coma when there was banging on the door.
