Rachel POV
It's the weekend!!! Yay!!
This is what my weekend consists of: spending time with my brother and my best friend on Saturdays. Sundays are family dinners with Mama Mel and Papa C. It's like a holiday dinner but smaller.
It may sound boring, but it's definitely a lot of fun.
Today is Saturday...so I'm gonna be spending the day with Harper and Jacob.
Jacob suggests for us to go to the gym. Which isn't a bad idea. I need some stress relief.

Jacob: What do you girls want to start with?
Harper: Can we do some stretches?
Rachel: I'm down for it.
Jacob: Why though?
Rachel: Uh....to release the muscles. You should've known that when you was playing football in high school?

Harper and I laugh.

Jacob: Fine. Once we are done, I'm going to lift weights.
Harper: Why you need to do that, when you know how to lift me.
Rachel: Ewwwwwww. Guys come on.

They both laugh at me. I get it that they are married, but come on. Don't bring up about how you guys have sex. Geez.
We go get some mats and we do our stretches. We did some for our legs, arms, and back. Once we finished, Jacob went to lift weights while Harper and I go on treadmill.

Harper: So how are your students doing?
Rachel: They are doing amazing. I helped one of my students with advice on their situation.
Harper: Really? What happened?

I tell her everything.

Harper: Wow. I remember how hard Dr. Henry was. Mr. Sims helped us a lot.
Rachel: Yeah. It meant everything.
Harper: What about her boyfriend breaking up with her?
Rachel: Well, I didn't want to say much. I told her that she has a bright future ahead of her. You know why I didn't want to get into with her.
Harper: That's understandable. I know how you feel.

Harper and I move to the bikes.

Harper: You know what, Jacob and I were talking last night and we have a feeling that there is gonna be someone for you.
Rachel: There is no way.
Harper: I know you have your doubts, but have faith.

Ugh. Why me?!

Rachel: You know what? I'm gonna lift some weights too.
Harper: Are you mad at me?
Rachel: No of course not. You are my sister-in-law and I love you.
Harper: Yay!!

I laugh and I go to the weights. I lift up 20 lbs. dumbbells. I do 15 squats. I'm in my zone. I put them back and when I back up I fell. I didn't know that someone was behind me.

Rachel: What the hell?
Man: Oh I'm so sorry Miss. Are you okay?

I open my eyes and I see a very gorgeous man. But I'm not let it get to me.

Rachel: Yeah. I'm fine.

He helps me up. Harper and Jacob come to check on me.

Jacob: Rach are you okay?
Rachel: Yeah. I'm fine.
Harper: What happened?
Rachel: I was finished with the dumbbells and I when I was finished I put them back on the rack, backed up and fell.
Man: I'm sorry Miss. I was tying my shoe and I didn't see you.
Rachel: It's fine. I'm okay.

I look at Jacob and it seems like he trying to recognize this guy.

Jacob: Wait. Are you Danny? Danny Phillips?
Danny: Yes I am. Why?
Jacob: You are new trainer. I'm Jacob Leveret.
Danny: Oh that's right. I was gonna text you man.
Jacob: Oh this is my wife Harper and my younger sister Rachel.
Danny: Nice to meet you ladies.
Harper: Likewise. Babe? What you need a trainer for?
Jacob: I've been keeping this a secret, but I'm getting back in shape to be qualified to become a college offensive coach.
Rachel: Oh that's amazing. I'm proud of you bro.
Harper: Yeah. That's amazing baby.
