Heather didnt find anything she waited for the 11:00 shows.

 She read Adam's text, she was sad to see Cindy leave, she hoped her replacement was nice as well. Heather texted back," Oh wow damn I should have stayed and met her, let her know she can call me tomorrow ok Adam thank you."

  Yeah..you bet Heather..  i snag her when i get a  chance..

 C

Heather texted back," Thank you." Heather then tried to relax and wait for the 11:00 shows to come on.

  ASs she had the TV on. She saw multiple highlights  of   The  Games , Including The Titans  , where on thier way to beating the Texans.

  some highlights showed  the  disgraced  Titan Player who had shoved and swore at 'Lissy Dragon' on the sidlines in street clothes, he was   laughing and talking with his titan teammates, but the  announcers ( during the game, and  in the ESPN  studios)  made mention of the   Dragons   coming to play the Titans , and   would show  some  clips of the incident... they always  used that as a Segway into the  NFL's  deliberations  on the FAte of Stokes...of course it  was shown with stop action views of the  hit.

  Most players  and coaches  condemned Stokes...a few tried to stand up for him,even when head postion, and the Bounce of the ball showed that he was interested in only hitting Heather.

 Heather watched and listened and the ones that thought Stokes was in the right where most likely the same ones that didn't want females in football. What Stokes did was a blatant attempt to hurt Heather badly and she hoped the NFL threw everything at him and he never plays again. Heather would watch the shows and then make sure she did everything she had to do and headed for bed.

 when the   Taxi let them out,,  Lu-Ti followed  Ben holding his hand...Adam's car isn't here yet?

 Mike, the  night Gate Guy said..He called in, he's down  town, and said he would  be late?..if he gets  hung up, he'll call in for curfew from a Motel or something..

 Thank You Mike... I was worried  something happned... then she  said more quietly,and? maybe  we can have a  quiet night?

Ben smiled.

"It all depends what you'd like to do. Ice cream? A movie? Some music? Another bottle of wine?"

He led Lu-Ti into the dark townhouse, flicking some lights on and preparing to play host.

  LU-Ti smiled  as she    took her shoes off, leaving them by the main door...I am thinking,  one more Glass of wine, then   you take me upstairs...it has been a long and brutal 5 days..... I need  some attention...

Ben brought a couple of glasses to the couch in the main room and sat down, holding out an arm for Lu-Ti to snuggle up to.

 LU-Ti snuggled in close..  she  took big sips of her   wine.I think, after this movie, we go upstairs..yes?

The movie  had  about   20 Minutes left...

 Heather"s  reminder app. beeped... ESPN app. says " Stokes banned indefinitely ,Agent  vows to  challenge  the ruling "

 Heather looked at her phone app, she read it and pumped her fist, yes he got banned hell yes, Heather was very happy and felt protected by the NFL.

"As you wish, my love."

What was going on here? Did Lu-Ti want to take matters further, or go to the guest room which was made up ready for her?

He wasn't sure what he wanted either. As a healthy male animal, yes, of course he'd like to, if she were willing. Yet there was a strong part of him that wanted to wait. He felt the rest of the Yutos might expect it. Heck, he expected it of himself. He wasn't one of those religious nuts but he did believe in not playing around...

Outwardly calm, he sipped his wine and cuddled Lu-Ti.

 The Credits   rolled, The Good  Guy  and the   heroine  drove off.  LU-TI  finished her   Wine  , set the  glass on the  table,..Let us go upstairs... Adam? is not Home yet? He must be at  the Studio or complex?.. It is time  for  bed..yes?

  For Ben , he could see the clock  read 1:30.

"Well past it... We have to be at the complex for 6am and I don't know about you but this little Dragon needs his sleep. I don't know about Adam. Hope he has at least checked in from wherever he is or he may be in trouble. At least I am home on time, but I ought to be asleep now. You use my bathroom, I know that's fit for a lady."

In Adam's absence he went in there for a quick shower before bed. It wasn't really messy. Just jockstraps on the towel rail...

When he was done he went upstairs and fell into his bed, well ready for sleep. It had been a long day. He set an alarm for 5am.

  Ben's door  Opened  quietly, around  2:00. Lu-Ti stepped in quietly, she watched  Ben for a Moment, before   easing herself into the bed and Nestling   close, before  fallign  a sleep.

  Ben's  alarm went off... Lu-Ti   sighed a  Bit  as she  opened  an eye...It is Morning already! she said   softly

 Heather's Phone started Blowing  up with other players around the league..some supportive, some not..people were askign for Interviews.

 Heather woke up with her phone blowing up, she should have figured that when she saw what happened to Stokes. Heather saw the news report and the news about Adam and the new reporter, she wondered what was going on there.

 Heather would respond to the supportive players; she would just ignore the other players. As far as interviews she would look at the list pf possible interviews. Heather decided to wait for Lindsey Garret the new reporter to call her plus she wanted to know about her and Adam as well. Unless there was a big name that wanted an interview then Heather might think about it. Heather asked Adam to tell the new reporter she wanted an interview not to take her out on a date. Heather giggled then texted Adam," Hey Adam did you hear about Stokes, and did you talk to Lindsey the reporter for me?" She tried to keep a straight faced as she sent that text.

 Heather took her meds, took a nice hot shower, then got dressed and got ready to head to the complex for meetings, treatment and practice. Once Heather was ready, she sent a text to Nat, to see how things were going at home. She then went outside got into her car and headed for the Dragon complex.

Ben woke maybe a second before his alarm clock went off... to find Lu-Ti in his bed, snuggled up. It sure felt good to have her there.

He pawed wildly for the braying alarm clock, finally managed to switch it off.

"Good morning beloved."

He kissed her, then regretfully scrambled out of bed, scampering into the bathroom to run the shower as cold as it would go...

Fully awake, he emerged towelling himself.

"No need for you to move yet, but I'll leave a pot of coffee for you. And the keys to my truck. You can drive it over when you are ready."

He stuffed a shirt and pair of jeans into a small backpack, dressed in shorts, t-shirt, and trainers and went downstairs. He brewed coffee and ate a bagel with cream cheese, drank a mug of coffee quickly, then set off to run to the Complex.

 Heather drove the short distance to the Townhouses, she smiled at the guard and then entered and drove to her townhouse. She backed in so she could just pull out. It took her a little bit to get out of her car. She then grabbed her stuff and went into her condo. She quickly stripped down to her underwear to be more comfortable, she then put on and set up her tens unit and did everything else she was supposed to do when she got home. She knew Lindey's interview with Stokes would air at 6, so she turned on the TV to wait for the interview and see what they say about it. Once she was done she would call out for dinner tonight not in the mood too cook. She relaxed on the sofa and watched the sporting news until Lindsey's interviews air.

    The  Host for New Jack News, led into the pieces  with Lindsey and Stokes , with the promise of  heather's  after the break.

 as the segments  stated... Heather's  phone  Blew up again...

 Heather watched and how could Stoked really say things like that, then she listened to hers and she thought it was good, she could have done better though.

 Heather then checked her phone and social media account.

 Heather can't wait to see how the Football network breaks down the interviews, she will have that on as she goes through her messages to see who is contacting her for what reason.

 Heather  see  some  text, once more, from Old teammates.. a few old coaches

 " be careful"

 " Mexico needs   a Midfielder!"

South Africa Football association  has an offer to play/coach  for their National team.

  a text from Stokes..." i won't be the last.."
