After dinner with the upperclassmen Neil and Kevin headed back to the stadium for drills. It was the routine he was used to, with one critical addition. Neil went back to the dorm with Kevin and went down the hall as if going to his own room, but as soon as the door closed behind Kevin he made an about-face and went back to the stairwell. Andrew was waiting for him on the rooftop, usually with a cigarette in one hand and a bottle at his knee. The nights were still cool enough to warrant jackets but Andrew's body heat burned most of the chill away.
