Here’s an excerpt from PLAYING GAMES:
Sitting on the long couch, my mind kept returning to my mystery fighter. What if he was in the shower? Would it hurt to take a peek?
It wasn’t like me to entertain those kinds of thoughts, but all the sweat and testosterone in the air must have affected my brain. I tapped my foot on the floor as I took another sip of the cold water. I was at the point where I was trying to convince myself I didn’t need to check the showers. I kept trying to talk myself out of sneaking in there, but my mind was already made up.
As I slipped through the doorway, my shoes made a soft click on the tile floor. I didn’t want him to hear me so I walked slower, careful to not make any sound other than my heart pounding in my chest.
I followed the sound of the shower past the lockers. Each time I got near a corner, I peeked around it to make sure no one was there. Finally reaching the showers, I squinted, trying to see through the steam.
“Hmm, a dirty mouth and a dirty mind. Seems like you’re my kind of girl.”
Hearing a deep voice come from behind me, I held my breath, hoping to magically disappear into the steam. I didn’t have to turn around to see who it was. I knew that instead of my finding my mystery fighter, he found me.
“I must have gotten lost,” I said, thinking fast as I turned around.
He stood close enough to me that I could smell the mint shampoo from his wet, combed back hair. Knotted around his waist was a white towel. Beads of water rested on his sculpted torso and when he grinned at me, my eyes followed them down as they met his towel.
