Sage's Pov The morning sun shined brightly against the pavement as I jogged up the path towards the gym, my backpack strapped on my back. I needed some alone time on the court to get more reacquainted, even if it's just for ten minutes.I couldn't sleep the previous night. Sleep came, but the memories of that game tormented me and, strangely the thought of him kept me up.Andrew Jefferson.I'd seen a lot of attractive men in my nineteen years of existence, dated some, ignored most.But there was something about the way he looked at me, like he saw so much potential—not just the girl who almost lost her career because of a selfish move.It wasn't the age that scared me or even that he was my best friend's father, it was the silent pull, the kind that before you notice, it was there.I finally got to the gym. Pushing the door open, I saw that it was empty.Good.The court glowed under the lights, waxed and perfect. I dropped my bag on the bench and walked to the center. I used to be th

I felt so frustrated and exhausted. Who could have done something like that? Her words flashed back in my memories again. Somebody had pushed her. Clearly, someone wanted to see her downfall. Why are her fellow students so frustrating? It pissed me off, but I still held it in as she laid there unconscious.
