V2 ch183

Back in the parking lot, we headed for the athletic fields together. Up until Marie and Kaylee had to split off to go to their softball field. Kyle chose to go with them. 

Unexpectedly, Kaylee stopped beside me for a second. "You're the type to not say anything when you're in trouble. If you have to run, run to the softball fields. I've got your back." She slapped me on the shoulder and followed her sister and Kyle. 

I lightly smiled. Kaylee had a tough-guy persona, but I knew she cared for others. You could see it in the way she defended her sister and now in the way she backed me up. 

"But really, just come to me first." Noah said. 

"Why you?" Dave asked. "I'm older. Come to me if any of the seniors or juniors give you any trouble."

Noah rolled his eyes. "Let's go."

We gathered at the upper baseball field, keeping our bags close. No one knew where they were going just yet. More players showed up after us and eventually the group of coaches.
