Next day…


She jogged towards Joey; he looked surprised to see her, even more when she smiled at him.


         “Hey, see you still keep up with your little morning jogs”


         “You two” this had been what she’d liked about Joey, when she was with him, she didn’t have to talk, they were both comfortable in silence.  He was into the same sports at she was, at 6 ft, he was captain of the boys soccer team, he also ran track…Joey said he liked running, that it cleared his head, the same as her.  They did a couple of rounds, then decided to take a break, towel on his neck, she remembered how after every run he’d pour water in his hair, he said it made him feel rejuvenated.


         “Water?” she nodded towards his neck when he gave her a questioning look, but then he understood and bent down for her.  She lightly poured the water on his neck.


         “Your hair grew really fast” she remarked when she was done as he toweled his hair.


         “Yeah…like? I remember how you always use to say you like guys with long hair” he gave her a look…hesitant but playful.


         “Yeah…it’s going to be hard taken care of that…especially with you liking water in your hair so much” she not only remarked his morning tendencies, but the times when he’d asked her to wash his hair out for him, and the times when he’d just stand under the shower…water falling on his hair.  He grinned getting her…


         “Like I said, I remember” he wiggled his eyes suggestively she shacked her head in a chuckle.
