"hello, gorgeous." monty says smiling and tilting his head towards me. "oh i didn't realize someone was behind me." i sarcastically say. "you're annoying." he says laughing. "i know. so are you ready for the big game tonight?" i ask intertwining my hands in the fence. he looks down at his bat and his smile slowly turns to a frown. "what? what's wrong?" i ask worriedly. "i just don't think i'm doing good anymore. the team has been a little slow. since uh you know." he rubs his neck and i nod sighing. "yeah, since jeff died. it's not a bad word and i won't burst into tears if you say it." i say laughing. he gives a small shrug and looks down. "monty, look at me and listen, okay?" i say sternly. we make eye contact and i take a deep breath. "you are going to do just fine. this team is counting on you. you're one of the best players and jeff is looking down at you and them. don't do it for the team or the school or me. do it for jeff. do it for the boy that celebrated the littlest things. every single one of you guys are amazing at what you do so go get a home run and beat some viking ass!" i exclaim. "oh you give the best pep talks, babe." he says smiling. "i know, i'm pretty amazing." i laugh and give a small shrug. "see you tonight. i love you!" he yells as i turn on my heels. "oh i love you too." i yell giving a small wave at the end.
