Calling an Audible - Chapter 9

Coming off an ACL injury, Carlos is determined to get back to full-strength before the start of the season. He’s always put football first, over his friendships, his father’s wishes, and his love life. More accurately, his lack of a love life. This year will be no different. If he starts losing sleep over his new summer roommate, he’ll push that much harder in practice. Lando gave up on football two years ago, despite numerous offers from big schools. But when he misses it too much, he decides to transfer to a small school in South Carolina, where he has the misfortune of rooming with the handsome quarterback for the summer.

“So what do you think about telling Max about us?” Lando asks one night, eyes closed and head tipped back under the shower spray. Carlos doesn’t get the same stomachache he did the first time Lando brought up the topic, now that he’s had a little bit of time to prepare himself for the idea of opening up about his biggest secret to someone he’s never met. “It’s… practical,” he says. That’s the most positive thing he can think to say about it right now, even though it’s the smart thing to do. “It’s a good idea, but it still makes me nervous.”
