Jeremy smiles, then says, " A movie buff, huh? I'll have to remember that. I'm also a movie buff, so we'll definitely have some fun times. You're right, let's go to bed, and I can finish my workout when we get up in a few hours, then I'll make breakfast. "

They head back to Jeremy's bedroom and end up snuggling to sleep on his California King bed for the next five hours till Jeremy's alarm goes off.

Alexandra groans, huffing and puffing, letting out, " Come on, you've got to be kidding. Who gets up this early on a Sunday also!!! Who are you for not switching that off after blowing my back out. That shit is rude I need my damn beauty sleep." she growls slapping him on the back repeatedly.

Jeremy smiles and chuckles, then says, " I get up this early every morning to work out. I'm going to finish up my workout, and you can come join me if you want, or you can go back to sleep, and I'll still make breakfast after I'm done. "

She sighs and thinks for a second, then responds, "Yeah, well, n

    Once they got back to the house, he started setting up the ice bath for Alexandra and told her that he’d be right back. He comes back with a shirt and shorts for the ice bath. “ I’m going to start on breakfast, and it’ll be ready once you’re done with the ice bath. Enjoy! “As Jeremy leaves the room, she starts to unwind and takes a deep breath while changing. Alexandra gradually sits in the ice bath, and she takes some pleasure as her aching legs begin to get some relief as she sinks into the tub. She lets her mind drift off as she closes her eyes, wondering how it would be to have all of this equipment around on a daily basis and how her career would be. All of a sudden, the timer goes off. “ fifteen minutes goes by so fast. “ she thinks to herself as her eyes open and while she gets out of the tub to dry off. Alexandra changes her clothes to her workout clothes from earlier. She brings out the damp shirt and shorts out with her as she finds Jeremy in the kitchen finishing up break

    As Jeremy gets home, he turns on the heater to the pool. He got the patio set up and food prepped. A text comes saying that they just left the locker room and going to get ready and would be over there in about an hour, as Alicia took an eternity to get cleaned up from practice. Speaking of taking an eternity, back at the Outlaws’ locker room, the girls were more than ready for a night out. Well, most of them, anyway.“Holy tap dancing, Christ Alicia, can you be any slower!” Heather moaned, slinging her bag over one shoulder. Alexandra wasn’t fairing much better for the wait. The redhead, having already given up on standing altogether, was lying on a bench using her bag as a pillow and playing some puzzle game on her phone.“Good luck with that, “ Alexandra said, yawning, “She’s like watching grass grow.”“I heard that!” Alicia shouted from the showers. Heather shook her head, “Well, hear this! If you don’t move it, we will leave you! Step it up, princess! Knees to chest!”Suddenly

    “ Glad you could make it, Lloyd. Some introductions are in order, I think. “ Jeremy said, waving his hand to the group of girls. Alexandra waved a hand in acknowledgment, “ Alexandra, nice to meet ya. “ Next to her, Heather stepped up, offering a handshake. “ Heather, it’s nice to meet you. “ Alicia had been quiet up till now, smirking over her wine glass. “ I’m Alicia; Gotta say I don’t see many cowboys this far from Greeley. “ “ Ladies, this is Lloyd Wright, my business partner, friend, and the owner of the Billings Wolves, who are playing the Cannibals tomorrow night. “ Jeremy says as the ladies have questioning looks on their faces. Alicia steps up and asks, “ Business partner? We thought you owned the Cannibals outright. “Lloyd chuckles as he replies, “ He owns the Cannibals outright, and I own the Wolves outright, with the exception of a tiny percentage that I’ve given away to retired NAFL players that live in the area. We’re business partners, as in we are both league Co-

    He tried to hold the kiss for as long as he could, but Alexandra pulled away pretty quickly with a huge smile, saying, “ I needed that. I wish I could have more right now, but I haven’t told the girls yet, and I want to tell them before we are open about it. I plan on telling them on the way home tonight, so there will be no issues at the game tomorrow. “He sighs, then says, “ Ok, I understand; I told Lloyd when we were waiting for you guys. I hope that’s ok, and I’ll try to be respectful tonight. We better hurry outside before we raise suspicions. “She grins and nods in agreement. Once they get to the door, they see Lloyd jumping into the pool and the other two heading over to the hot tub. Lloyd pops out of the water, grinning ear to ear, then speaks to Jeremy and Alexandra, “ Come on, you two, the water is refreshing. “ Before Alexandra can reply, Jeremy tosses his Crocs and sleeveless compression shirt to the grill and jumps in doing a cannonball. Alexandra shakes her head as he

    They make brief eye contact, and even in the hazy morning light, Jeremy can see the red blush on her cheeks and tinting her ears, wearing a Billings Wolves t-shirt that’s a couple of sizes too big and her leggings. “ Please don’t tell Alexandra about this. “ Alicia softly requests. He sighs t” think for a second before whispering, “ Okay, I won’t tell her, but you need to tell her yourself before the game tonight. I promise I won’t tell her till at least then, but I will talk to my friend, Lloyd, though.” She rolls her eyes and sighs, then heads to her room. Jeremy starts to work out while trying to figure out what happened last night between Lloyd and Alicia, to result in what he saw just outside of his room. He loses track of time as he suddenly feels a hand on his shoulder.He looks over to see Alexandra; smiling, he goes in for a kiss. As they finish the kiss, he says, “ You’re a sight for sore eyes. I missed you. I couldn’t wait to work out with you. Are you ready? “She rolls

    Heather rolls her eyes in the passenger seat of the car as Alexandra is waiting for an answer, then says, “ How long have you known me? I’ve seen you in relationships before, and I see how he looks at you. As well as, you didn’t sleep in your room last night, but you slept in his room. You can’t deny it because I went to your room this morning while you were apparently working out, and you weren’t there. The bed was completely made, just how it was like when I checked both rooms and tried out the beds. “ Alicia, in the back seat turning white as she fears that Heather knew her secret, speaks up a little sheepishly, “ I I didn’t know that; I thought you were in your room. I’m happy for you, regardless. “Alexandra looking in the rearview mirror seeing Alicia looking white as a ghost, says to her, “ Are you alright? You look like you don’t feel good? “Alicia struggles to reply as she replies, “ Umm ya-yeah, I’m fine. I just may have had a few too many last night. I might have a hangov

    Jeremy heads to the Cannibals bench and then to the VIP room to change as the coin toss was going down. He puts the top hat on the table and starts to undress. He hangs up the outfit after putting it in the suit bag, then decides to take a quick shower door as he worked up a sweat in the Ringleader outfit, and he wants to be clean and smelling fresh for Alexandra. After the shower and getting dressed, he took the suit bag to his office, then locked the office before heading to the owner’s box. With a big grin on his face walking into the owner’s box, Jeremy says, “ What did I miss? “ Alexandra chuckles as she says, “ Just a clown parading around in a Ringleader outfit on the field. “ Lloyd starts to laugh before saying, “ I really like this young lady. You need to keep this one; she’s good for you, keeping you honest. By the way, you need to do something about that coach of yours. He’s not going to be good for the league or for the image of your team. “ Jeremy sighs as he replies,

    Alexandra entered the visiting owner’s box, and she was welcomed by jubilant conversation and lively banter. However, she was in no mood. “ You. “her voice bombed over the sound of laughter as the whole team paused to see whom she was addressing. The tall redhead's finger was leveled on Alicia, “ I said you, with me, now. We need to talk. “ Next, her gaze fell to Heather, “ You too, ‘cause I need a witness.”An echo of whispers filled the room as various other players commented, “ Man, I’m glad I’m not her. “ and “ Well, it was nice knowing her. “ “ What is wrong with you? “Alicia hissed, her ears bright red from being called out. Alex had eyes of fire as she yanked her friend into a nearby Conference room. “ Don’t you start with me! What’s wrong with me? What’s wrong with you! Jumping some old man’s bones! “ “ Whoa, pump the brakes! Alicia did what now? “ Heather interjected. Now all eyes fell on Alicia, who stood pale with clenched fists. “ What I do is not your business, and i

  • Blindside Beauty    Under the Lights

    Sunday morning broke crisp and clear over Denver, but Jeremy Davis barely noticed the spring sunlight streaming through the Coliseum’s high windows. He was already at the stadium, dressed in a sharp navy suit, tie knotted just so, hair combed with the care of a man who knew the cameras would catch every detail. The Cannibals’ home turf was quiet for now, but the air buzzed with the promise of attention-ESPN, Fox Sports, and, later, the local 9 News crew were all coming to get their piece of the comeback story.Jeremy checked his phone for the third time in as many minutes. No new texts from Alexandra, but her message from the night before still glowed on his screen: “I’m coming with you to the ranch. See you soon.” He smiled, nerves and excitement tangling in his chest. But first, he had to get through the gauntlet of interviews.ESPN: The Comeback KidThe ESPN crew arrived first, setting up lights and cameras in the Cannibals’ media room. Jeremy shook hands with the producer, then to

    The echoes of the game still lingered in the Denver Coliseum’s corridors, but Jeremy Davis felt like he was walking into a new world. Clean-shaven, hair still damp from the shower, he straightened the cuffs of his tailored suit-a tradition he’d kept since his earliest days as a player. On GameDay, he dressed for the part, and tonight, he wanted everything to be perfect. This wasn’t just any post-game dinner. This was Alexandra.He waited outside the women’s locker room, hands fidgeting with his phone, nerves fluttering in his stomach. Every detail had to go right. He replayed the game in his mind, every throw, every call, but it was Alexandra’s smile after her game-winning touchdown that kept flashing in his memory. He wanted that smile to last forever.The locker room door swung open, and Alexandra emerged, hair still a little damp, cheeks flushed, eyes bright. She wore a simple black dress and a leather jacket, her Cannibals duffel slung over her shoulder. She caught sight of Jeremy

  • Blindside Beauty    Game Day Hearts

    Saturday dawned over Denver with a sky so blue it looked painted, the kind of day that begged for something big, something unforgettable. The city buzzed with anticipation, every sports bar and living room tuned to the same story: Jeremy Davis, once the heart of the Denver Mustangs, now owner and GM of the Colorado Cannibals, was making his improbable comeback as quarterback. The Cannibals’ season, their locker room, and maybe even Jeremy’s own future, all hung in the balance.Inside the Denver Coliseum, the energy was electric. Fans poured in, faces painted, jerseys new and old, the stands a sea of black, crimson, and silver. Reporters from ESPN, Fox Sports, and every local station milled around the field, their cameras trained on the tunnel where the Cannibals would soon emerge. The air vibrated with the thump of bass-heavy music and the distant scent of popcorn and hope.But beneath the surface, nerves ran high.Pre-Game TensionIn the Cannibals’ locker room, Jeremy sat at his cubb

    Monday night settled over the Front Range, the Denver skyline twinkling in the distance as Jeremy Davis sat alone in his office at the Coliseum. The echo of practice still lingered in his bones, his arm throbbing with a dull ache that felt both familiar and foreign. Somehow, word had gotten out-maybe a trainer, maybe a player with a loose tongue, maybe just the way news always seemed to find its way to the surface when you least wanted it to.Jeremy Davis was unretiring. The Cannibals’ owner and general manager was going to suit up and play quarterback.Now, ESPN, Fox Sports, local news, and every other sports outlet in the region wanted a piece of him. His phone had been buzzing all evening, interview requests stacking up like blitzing linebackers. He didn’t want to be a distraction, didn’t want the circus to swallow the team whole, so he’d scheduled every interview for after Saturday’s game. He made sure the networks knew: this wasn’t just about him. They’d get to talk to the whole

    The Monday morning sun glinted off the glass facade of the Denver Coliseum, but Jeremy Davis barely noticed as he strode through the side entrance, phone pressed tight to his ear. He’d barely slept, his mind a storm of doubt, hope, and fear. The league’s decision would come today. Would he be allowed to play? Or would his last shot at redemption slip away before it even began?He checked his phone for the hundredth time. No call yet from Commissioner Helton. He tried to focus on the Cannibals-on the team, on Trisha, on the promise he’d made to her-but his thoughts kept drifting to Alexandra.He hadn’t seen her since the hospital, but her words from their last real conversation echoed in his mind: If you want to get back to the NAFL, you have to fight for it. For yourself. For us.He wondered if “us” meant what it used to.A League DecisionIn his office, Jeremy paced, waiting for the call. When his phone finally rang, he answered on the first ring. “Jeremy Davis.”“Jeremy, it’s Larry

  • Blindside Beauty    The Owner's Table

    Sunday night settled over the Wild West Indoor Football League with a tension that was almost physical. In homes and offices across the Midwest, team owners and executives logged into a hastily arranged video conference, their faces flickering into view in a checkerboard of anticipation, rivalry, and curiosity. At the center of it all, in a quiet home office lined with league memorabilia, Commissioner Larry Helton adjusted his tie and prepared to referee what promised to be a stormy debate.Jeremy Davis was not on the call. He’d made his request official that afternoon, citing the Cannibals’ extenuating circumstances after Trisha Steinmetz’s devastating injury. The league’s bylaws were clear: an owner could only play for their team if two-thirds of the league’s owners approved, and only in “extraordinary situations.” It was up to the rest of the league to decide if this was one of those moments.Larry’s screen filled with familiar names and faces: Chad Ross of the Wyoming Cavaliers, F

  • Blindside Beauty    The Gambit

    Sunday afternoon sunlight spilled in golden patches through the hospital’s windows as Jeremy Davis made his way down the corridor, the familiar, antiseptic scent a jarring reminder of the night before. His phone buzzed in his pocket-another message from Jenifer, another update from the Cannibals’ staff-but he ignored it for now. There was only one thing on his mind: Trisha Steinmetz.Her text had come early that morning, brief but direct:“Jeremy, if you have time, I’d like to see you today. Room 427.”He’d barely slept, replaying every snap, every decision, every what-if from the previous game on top of when he does sleep, he has a nightmare of his own injuries. The Cannibals’ opener had been a triumph and a tragedy-an electric blowout soured by Trisha’s collapse and the news that followed. Now, as he reached her door, Jeremy steeled himself for the conversation he both dreaded and needed.He knocked gently and pushed open the door. Trisha was propped up in bed, her leg in a brace, h

    The Saturday afternoon sun slanted through the windows of Jenifer Walter’s office, painting long golden stripes across the floor. The air in the Denver Coliseum was thick with the aftershock of bad news, but Jenifer had no time to wallow. She needed her leaders, and she needed a plan. She fired off a quick group text to the Cannibals’ captains and to Sterling “Lockjaw” Blaze: Jenifer: “Meet in my office at 4. Update on Trisha. Need your help. -JW” The hours crawled by. Jenifer paced, reviewing quarterback lists and scribbled play diagrams, but nothing felt right. She kept replaying her conversation with Jeremy that morning, his stubborn refusal, the haunted look in his eyes. She needed her team’s buy-in. She needed to rally the people who could move mountains-or at least, move Jeremy Davis. At exactly four o’clock, there was a knock at her door. Alexandra Jordan, Heather Wammack, Morty Sample, and Lockjaw Blaze filed in, each looking tense and expectant. Jenifer gestured for them

    The morning after the Cannibals’ thunderous victory over the Wyoming Cavaliers, Denver was still buzzing. Headlines blared about the 113-0 blowout, the record crowd, and the Cannibals’ “unstoppable experiment.” But inside the city’s heart, in the quiet corridors of the Denver Coliseum, the mood was somber.Jeremy Davis had spent the night at the hospital. He’d watched the sun crawl up over the Rockies through a window in the waiting room, the taste of stale coffee and worry thick on his tongue. When the diagnosis came, it was worse than anyone had feared.He thumbed out a text to Jenifer Walter as he left the hospital, his hands shaking with exhaustion and anger.Jeremy: “Meet me in my office. It’s bad news about Trisha. I’ll tell you more when I get back.”He drove through the waking city, the streets still empty, his mind racing.
