CALLUM
“HEY, CALLUM!”
I froze at the sound of Head Coach Oliveira’s voice and turned to see
that he was standing with the head coach of offense, Sean Dyers. They were
deep in discussion, both frowning, and my heart sank all the way into the
pit of my stomach at the sight. I walked toward them, pulling off my helmet
and nearly walking into the team’s kicker, Rye, as he continued his drills.
I skirted him at the last second, mumbling an apology as I continued to
my doom.
“What’s up, Cal?” Sean asked the moment I reached them. He gripped
my shoulder, squeezing companionably. “No offense bro, but you didn’t
play like this when we scouted you.”
The middle-aged coach was grinning like his statement was supposed to
be anything other than horrifying.
As the new backup quarterback for the Austin Troopers, I had been
hoping to come into training camp at my best.
“I know,” I said, wiping the sweat from my brow. “I’m sorry. I’m just—”
“Nervous?” he guessed.
“Yeah, basically,” I admitted, my gaze darting to Coach Oliveira who
hadn’t said a word yet. Instead, he was just piercing me with those intense
dark eyes until I was sweating double.
“See?” Sean said. “That was what I was telling Oliveira, here. You’ll
pull it together.”
I nodded.
“Yes, sir.”
He was about two inches shorter than me, which at my six-two, meant
Sean had been pretty short for a former quarterback, but he obviously knew
what he was doing. The problem wasn’t him so much as it was me.
Between him and the other QB coaches, I should have been getting better
and better, but every time Coach Oliveira’s eyes landed on me, I seemed to
lose all confidence. For some reason, I choked every time any of the
coaches looked my way.
“You’re going to have to get over that fast,” Coach Oliveira said, finally
gracing me with his hard, deep voice. There was no room for nonsense with
the man and I didn’t blame him. He had a lot to prove after two years
coaching the newest team in the NFL. The Austin Troopers had started with
a bang and he had been taking them further each season so far.
The fact that I had been made a part of the team was an overwhelming
honor.
“You need to get to know the guys,” Sean informed me. “Mingle, have a
drink when someone asks you…”
My cheeks heated as I realized he’d probably heard me turning people
down since day one.
“They don’t bite. Plus, getting to know Kelly at the very least is no
harm. He can give you some pointers.”
Before I could die of embarrassment, someone dropped their arm
around my shoulders. I stiffened, glancing over to see that Addison Kelly
himself, starting quarterback for the team had obviously heard his name and
decided to crash my humiliation party.
He caught my dark eyes with his playful aqua blue and winked before
looking at Sean.
