Conversation with Cole Caufield

Freya
you were amazing! gonna just assume
you scored that goal for me and me
only. :)

Cole
of course, only for you :)
just lucky we pulled out the
win for you too

Freya
otherwise i would've had to start
hanging out with your friend on
the other team 😬

Cole
oh yeah i bet

Freya
are y'all doing anything
after? somewhere we should
meet up or something?

Cole
yeah the guys are going out i think.
know nick wants you guys to come

Freya
but you don't want us to? 🥺
just nick 🥺

Cole
of course i do.
but i was actually wondering
if you wanted to come back to
my place with me

...

Cole
i can give you a ride home later
if you're not comfortable spending the
night.
just thought it might be nice to have some
alone time if you'd be down

Freya's eyes are frozen on her phone. Holy shit.

She must have said the words aloud because Riley leans forward in her seat and asks, "What is it?"

Unable to gather a coherent verbal response, Freya turns the phone around to face Riley and the others. They read it before gasping in unison.

"Oh my god," Tate murmurs. "You have to do it."

"But I told you—I don't want him getting any idea," Freya presses, pulling the phone back into her lap.

"Uh, I don't think this is him getting a dating sort of idea," Riley observes, gulping down the rest of her beer.

Freya furrows her brows and glances around the group. "Wait—what?"

Tate rolls her eyes. "Just say yes, Frey," she instructs. "Live a little."

Jess, Tate, and Riley agree to meet the guys downtown at a restaurant, but before they head out, Tate stops to grab Freya by the shoulders. Glaring hard at her, Tate reminders her, "You deserve to be happy, okay?"
