He snorts. “You know a secret. Tell.”

“I don’t tell secrets.”

“Oh, please. When you found out Corbin wears women’s panties, you couldn’t wait to tell everyone.”

“I do not wear women’s panties,” Corbin insists.

Tanner wags a finger at him. “I saw them. They were pink and lacy.”

“Men can wear pink underwear.”

“And lacy.”

Corbin growls. “They weren’t lacy.”

Tanner leans back in his chair. “I saw what I saw.”

“Maybe you need your eyes examined.”

“I have perfect vision!”

Nolan snorts. “Which is why you ran straight into the crowd instead of finding an open space at the playoff game.”

Tanner glares at him. “I did not.”

Nolan motions toward the screen where the footage of our last game is playing. “I have proof.”

“Don’t blame the interception on me.”

“It’s not blaming if it was your fault. And it was.”

The door opens and Coach Knox enters. He scowls at us before switching on the light and stopping the footage. “You’re supposed to be reviewing the game. Not gossiping like a bunch of teenage boys who just had their first hard-ons.”

“You were late.” Brock points to the clock. “This meeting can’t run over. I need to pick Jace up in an hour.”

Coach purses his lips. “Which is why you should have been watching the game footage instead of gossiping.”

Brock glares at him. “I do not gossip.”

Knox sighs. “You couldn’t keep everyone in line?”

Brock shrugs. “Not my job.”

“His job is to be grumpy,” Tanner says. “He excels at it.”

Brock punches his shoulder.

“Ow. You hurt me. I think I need to visit the physical therapist. Have you seen her? Spicy.”

“The physical therapist has a boyfriend who will show you what hurt means,” Nolan says.

“How do you know?” Tanner snaps his fingers. “Oh, that’s right. You know all of the female workers at the resort.”

Nolan snaps his teeth at him but he doesn’t deny it. Huh. What has Nolan been up to? I’ve been too busy with Addy to pay attention. I’m paying attention now.

“What have you been up to, Nolan?”

He scowls at me. “Mind your own business. I didn’t tell everyone you got rejected by the cute redheaded singer.”
