Jean: Shows Jeremy a picture of Sir and King Renee texted him.

Jeremy: "So cute! Who's kitties?"

Jean: "Renee is visiting Neil and Andrew."

Jeremy: "They started playing for the same pro team last year. That's cool that they are good enough friends to live together still "

Jean: Bombastic French Side Eye.

Jeremy: Confused Californian Puppy Eyes.

That whole dinner he sat there getting more and more concerned as Marissa flirted with Neil and Neil at least attempted to engage in the conversation. (Something he does not always do.) So Aaron's imagination started running wild imagining the flirting turning into dating, then Katelyn would want to go on double dates with them. Neil would suddenly be hanging out at Marissa and Katelyn's dorm, which was supposed to be a safe space from the Foxes for Aaron. And just altogether too much Neil involved in his life.

I just stared at it for so long trying to figure out wtf was going on my husband was like is something wrong. So I asked him if he had messed with it or downloaded anything on it and he said no.

I kinda feel like there are two options: One is the third book is going to have much longer time jumps. Maybe like one big one in the beginning that skips all the way to spring semester. Nora gave us a really specific timeline for when Neil and Andrew will heal up and be able to play again and it feels like maybe there was a bigger reason for that now. I know this series isn't about them, but they are still heavily influencing it. We might also have some smaller timejumps just cause I cant imagine we don't see Jeans reactions to Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years.

Second theory is that the conclusion for this book isn't going to be championships. I feel like all those little background happenings that keep randomly popping up, mainly Browning keeping as close tabs on Jean as Neil, are going to blow up randomly in their faces. We know Nora will throw giant curve balls at us, and I'm kinda expecting it this book as well.
