Playing for Time

As a flight attendant, I meet a lot of famous people. Some I never see again. Darcy Rayne was the exception. The handsome, sexy king of the football world. At first, I denied the attraction. I don't date players. Especially the off-field kind. I'm a regular girl, and my world is too small for someone like him. Turned out, I underestimated a footballer's determination and focus to never give up. So, I gave in. He had a dream before me. Almost lost it because of me. In my darkest hour when I needed him most, he got his dream. And I lost a piece of my heart.
