Two seasons of man-up defense. Two seasons of his hands pulling my suit underwater where the ref can’t see.
Kieran and I have been matched on man-up D since sophomore year. Hip to hip, legs tangled beneath the surface, his hand on my suit to fix my positioning. Standard defensive contact. That’s what I tell myself every time his fingers hook inside my waistband and stay.
After practice tonight, the pool empties. Just us, drilling in the deep end. His thumb traces the edge of my speedo. “How long?” he asks. Since the first time you grabbed me underwater and I didn’t want you to stop.
Above the surface, we look like teammates drilling. Below it, his hand is somewhere that has nothing to do with defense.
