   Summary

   Nat felt the breeze brush her face—cool and fleeting, a small mercy from the sun beating down on the turf. The heat was relentless, baking the field and everyone on it, but practice was almost over. Just a few more drills and she’d be free.

   Free to ditch the cleats, ditch the fake smiles, and escape with Van—plans whispered during water break: rent something dumb, light up, maybe crash in Van’s basement if her mom didn’t notice. It was their ritual. Their way of pretending they had nowhere else to be.

   Or

   Bits of Nat and Vans senior year, set before Previously on the Scarlet Knights.

   Rewrite of "You Used to Be Free (it's all i can dream about)" because I didn't like it.
