Game On! is my short story I’m serving up on Weekend Writing Warriors for #8Sunday. In this week’s eight, Jordan and Heath, who recently met on the beach, are having brunch in a small cafe where she’s a regular. She’s just found out he’s on the area’s new semi-pro football team by way of their server and accuses him of hiding his identity.
He let out a long breath. “I’m not, but I’m not broadcasting or bragging because I could be gone tomorrow. Is it wrong to want to meet people on my on merit?” He sipped his iced tea while she digested.
She seemed to consider his words. “I can see where you’re coming from. So while you’re coming clean, are you married or in a relationship?”
He smelled a rat in her past.
Hope you’ve enjoyed today’s 8 for Game On! For more fun check out other Weekend Writing Warriors‘ blogs.

Seems to me her questions are justified, even if they are based in her past experiences. Enjoying the story very much, terrific snippet.

Great snippet. If he’s hiding one thing, what else might come out of the woodwork later?
