Her heart hammered a joyful rhythm against her ribs as she jogged off the field. The crisp autumn air bit at her cheeks, but she barely noticed.

A giggle escaped her lips as she skipped over to the water cooler, the metal cool against her fingertips. She could not stop smiling, her face hurt with the effort. A feeling of profound lightness infused her being. She felt invincible. She had to try and contain herself so as not to seem weird.
