Practice done, Heath climbed into his Jeep planning to head for the oceanfront. He’d showered and donned a pair of board shorts, intent on picking up a six pack. While snapping his seat belt, his cell phone went off. For the first time in weeks, he answered without checking the display.

He yanked off the suffocating helmet and grabbed one of the water lines. The cooling H2O squirted over his head and face before he gunned a stream down his parched throat.

“Are we hitting the beach later?” his teammate, Dugan asked, reaching for another hose.

He nodded, imagining cool waves and a sea of curves in bikinis.
