Chapter 9“Ashton, Patterson, my office, now!” Coach yelled above the noise in the locker room. The volume immediately dropped, all eyes turning to Adam and Troy. A few of the players made sympathetic noises or patted them on their backs as Troy and Adam made the long walk of shame towards Coach, who stood in his office doorway. Troy tried to get a read on the man, see what punishment the guy was likely to meet out, but as usual, Troy couldn’t accurately scan anyone other than Beck. Part of him wondered if this would improve once he and Beck were bonded, while another part hoped it wouldn’t. Troy was shaken out of his musings by the slamming of Coach’s door. Coach sat himself behind his desk, Troy noting he and Adam hadn’t been invited to sit on the other two chairs in front of the desk.
