Birdie was surprisingly full of energy that morning, rising early and passing through the markets on her way to the hospital. Which, typically, meant she was now sitting here at lunch with way too many treats for one person to consume before they went stale. Luckily though, it was the break room, and it wasn’t long until someone else entered. “Orlaith!” She called, waving the bag in her direction.

The holidays had always been one of Dawn’s favourite times of year, second only to the feeling that came with summer nights. As soon as the decor around the island began to switch from spooky to festive, her excitement grew. But the past years it had become her most dreaded time of year. A reminder, sucked back into grief and the remind of trauma. It was a blessing then, really, that it coincided with pre-season. Games would start back up shortly in the new year, and so she could direct her energy, and her thoughts, towards three things -- training, food, and presents. 

She was focusing on one of these, running alongside the beach with Chucky at her heels, when the second caught her eye. It could potentially have been the most beautiful sandwich she had ever laid her eyes on, or she could have just been running for so long, she’d lost track in the flow of it all, that her body was craving the food. But either way, she lost concentration, tripping over a beach goers badly placed bag, crashing down to the ground right in front of the women with the sandwich.

Dawn would’ve been more embarrassed, if not for the shooting pain up her ankle. “Ow, ow, oh my god.”
