swung my arms just all little more I would for sure have been touching him. It felt good, I felt safe.
“So you think you guys will be the winners today? You are very sure of yourself; the team you are up against have played College Volley Ball together for two years now. You think you guys are up for it?”
I was a bit insulted that he didn’t think that we had it in us.
“Yes I think we can do it! I've played Volley ball for 3 years already. My partner has not but I do believe we stand a very good chance of beating them.”
I picked up my pace, little pissed at Vincent. It didn't seem to register with him that he had just upset me because he continued.
"I can see you are fit and know what you are doing. Sam on the other hand; she will be your downfall, if you and Brook played together it would really spice up the match"
I could not do that to Sam; ditch her at the last minute just because I wanted to win.
“I know Sam is not as good but what she lacks in talent she makes up in willpower and determination.”
I knew he was right in what he was saying but it still wasn't nice to say it.
“So tell me more about your Volley Ball, when did you start?”
“It started on this beach, about two years ago. Heather and I came here for my 16th birthday. I fell in love with the sport. When we went back home we decided that volley ball was the thing for us. I received player of the year in my final year."
“I can see in your form that you know what you are doing, good luck for today.”
It was getting late and I needed to get back to the house, the girls must have been wondering what had happened to me.
On our way back, Vincent picked up his pace we were in a full sprint to see who would get to his shop first. Of course he beat me, with those long legs it was a given.
“I won, so for my prize, I want you to join me for a quick breakfast.”
“I can't… I need to go get ready."
"Get ready… You stay five minutes away for here and I know you haven't had breakfast yet. Come I will quickly make you something; it will give you just the right amount of energy for today. Please, my treat, I know the boss, he won’t mind"
"Ok, I will, but it must be quick, the girls are going to wonder where I am and I left Heather in charge of making breakfast. Not too sure if she went back to bed though"
"Great, let’s go"
As we stepped into the shop I saw Rebecca, she was a little taken back when I walked in with Vincent's hand on the small of my back. I saw a flash of jealousy on her face.
“Morning Rebecca, this is Caitlin, she's one of the girls taking part in the finals today.”
“I know Caitlin; she is here almost every day for her fix”
“Hi Rebecca, how are you doing?”
While Rebecca and I were talking Vincent went behind the counter and whipped up something. I was trying to see what he was doing; it was like he was deliberately putting his body in the way so I couldn’t see. Hell the view I got of his behind was much better anyway. I was a little distracted, half listening to what Rebecca was saying about a meet and greet or something. My mouth must have been open, when Vincent turned around. He was talking to me but my brain was not functioning. I quickly looked away but Vincent caught me ogling his ass and was smirking at me again.
“Do you like what you see?”
Rebecca turned around to face Vincent with a puzzled look on her face; I went blood red, shook my head and turned away.
Vincent came around the counter and sat next to me, handing me the cup.
“Here you go, drink up, you don't have much time, lots of exciting things happening on the beach today.”
“Besides the finals and the beach party, what else have you got planned?”
“Before the game starts, we have arranged for Misty May-Treanor and Kerri Walsh-Jennings to come and do
