The Building Anticipation

One by one, photo after photo, the entire football team was introduced. This included first, the Junior Varsity followed by the Varsity team. As much as I loved getting the photographs, I was getting impatient, wanting to finally get a glimpse of Owen. I now understood why the school allowed an entire hour and fifteen minutes for this pep rally. The introductions alone looked to be taking up the first hour. Still, I clicked away. Click, focus and move, click again. Sometimes the players would see me and pose for the camera. Those were shots that would be the money makers, the ones their parents and adoring girlfriends and fangirls would want to purchase.

Speaking of fangirls and girlfriends, I managed some amazing shots of Danny when he came out. One in particular that I knew Vanessa would love was of his flexing those massive biceps. I managed to get at least a dozen really good shots of him before the next player was announced and I was forced to move on to them.

Just one for tonight.... Reminder, it is the last day of the month so use your GEMS before they expire. If you think Aurora and Owen are worthy of them, it would be greatly appreciated! Thank you to all of my wonderful readers for a successful first full month as a signed author on GoodNovel! Your encouragement is helping me make this lifelong dream come true! ~Lunar Dawn~

  • Whispers of the Heart   One Question

    I slowly gathered up the camera equipment before walking to join the girls as they gathered up their gear. Courtney and Bethany were leaving together, planning to meet Jonathan and Gary at Gary’s house for the party. They would be some of the first to arrive so per his usual practices, he had given Bethany the key to the pool house where the party was being held so they could go ahead and leave and get everything set up once they got there.As I was waiting on Vanessa to finish talking with one of the younger cheerleaders, I took a moment to look up toward the crowd still remaining in the stands. The spot where Phil, Sherry and Nate had sat was empty as I expected. They might have even left before the game was completely over as Nate would have been getting tired and sleepy resulting in whining and possible atypical behavior.As my eyes swept the stands, they came to rest on a man and woman that I recognized and remembered as the parents of Alexis Parker. Her mother was crying but she

  • Whispers of the Heart   Much Needed Victory

    From the moment the game started, something just felt off. I knew Owen well enough, I knew this team well enough to have my suspicions as to what was happening but I would not be able to confirm it until later, when I was actually able to talk with Owen.The pace was slower than normal or maybe it was just my imagination. The first drive down the field, Owen didn’t even look to throw it. Each and every play was immediately passed off to the running back and driven right up the middle into the biggest wad of defensive traffic. We used all of our first three tries four times in a row just to get the first down each time. On the fifth try, we made the first down in just two attempts but then the next two were back to using all three again until we managed to score our first touchdown. The kicker followed with the extra point and we had an early lead but it had taken half of the quarter just to finally score.On the kickoff, our kicker made what looked like the biggest half assed attempt

  • Whispers of the Heart   Anticipation

    While we stayed in the comfort of the air conditioning in the photography room, Mecan and Manauwa battled it out on the field. By halftime, I had the photos transferred and the SD card cleared and we had an update that the score was currently twenty-one to three in favor of Mecan.Coach Boone sent for our fellas just after the second half started, leaving us girls to sit and chat for a few more minutes before Vanessa had to go round up the rest of the cheerleading squad so that they could all prepare to take the field again and the girls joined her, being part of that squad.I received a text from an unknown number a few minutes after the girls left. I breathed a sigh of relief as I saw that it was Sherry and quickly saved her number in my contacts. She was asking the score and the time left on the current game. She said that they wanted to bring Nate to the game but wanted to wait until the final game of the tournament and didn’t want to get there too early and have to wait for the Me

  • Whispers of the Heart   Crucial Moments

    Just when I was feeling good about the possible outcome of the game, Owen was sacked again and there was a loss of five yards. This hit wasn’t as hard or as detrimental as the first one but it was still a pivotal moment that seemed to deflate the crowd. The second down only resulted in a gain of five to get back to the original line of scrimmage.Thankfully, the line protecting Gary and Owen came alive as the ball was snapped on the third down and Owen was able to get a clear line of sight to throw the ball down field to Jonathan. Jonathan made an amazing catch to secure the first down but was only able to run less than five yards before he was tackled to the ground.We were now on the thirty yard line, well within field goal range but still had thirty-seven seconds left on the clock. The team rushed into place and Gary handed the ball off solidly to Owen with the snap. He only hesitated for half a second before he blasted the ball down field to Jonathan again, who caught it and secure

  • Whispers of the Heart   Football and More Football

    Saturday dawned bright and clear once we finally made it out of bed. We may or may not have turned the alarm off and slept in later than intended but without any plans, we weren’t hurting anyone and the way I figured it, the more rest Owen was able to get, the better his performance would be tonight knowing that he was more than likely playing two games this evening.It was going to be an extremely long day. The first game started at two and pitted us, the defending champions against Broken Falls. Once our game was finished, the losing team was free to go but as we were the hosting team, students and staff from Wood Haven would have to remain the entire time, anyhow.After our game, Mecan would face off with Manauwa to determine who advanced to the championship game. That game was scheduled to start around five in the afternoon. The final game for the winner of this year’s tournament would start around eight o'clock tonight.It had rained sometime after midnight and a cold front moved

  • Whispers of the Heart   One Hot Night

    The moment we made it home, Owen scooped me up out of the passenger seat as I wrapped my legs around his waist. He shut the door to the Yukon, locked it with his key fob and crossed the yard, all the while kissing me so deeply that it took my breath away.He punched the code on the keypad and entered the garage, closing it back behind him. We heard it lock back with a beep as he climbed the stairs as if I weighed nothing at all. At the top of the stairs, he entered the code again and hurriedly opened the door. I slid down his body as he closed the door back behind us. As he locked that door back, I took the opportunity to ditch my heels and toss them toward the couch.As he spun back, I stepped toward him and quickly unbuttoned his tuxedo jacket. I reached up to push it off his shoulders, helping him to shimmy out of it as quickly as I could. While I worked on unbuttoning his vest, he loosened the tie but didn’t remove it. We got the vest off and tossed onto the couch before he scooped
