First and Always

Chapter 1
For a guy born and raised in Milwaukee, now living and working in Washington, DC, Christmas in Miami would never feel completely normal. There should have been huge oaks, thick branches barren of leaves or crusted with ice from a recent storm, instead of palm trees with their abundant fronds drifting on a breeze. Or bundling up in a thick coat and gloves in order to go outside instead of hanging out indoors out of the sunshine with the air conditioning running.
And he would have never, in a million years, expected sitting in front of the TV with his father in anticipation of watching a football game. Michael Pappas had finally escaped this kind of torture when his dad realized he had a bookworm for a son instead of an athlete. Yet this morning, just like he had done yesterday, Michael had been the one to command the best seat in the house in order to watch the game.

The house smelled of roasting turkey and his mother’s sausage stuffing, but while Christmas dinner was always one of Michael’s favorite parts of the day, he barely noticed the scents now. Every one of his senses focused on the TV, absorbing details of the pre-game show that he had always ignored before. Miami had actually played the Saturday night game on Christmas Eve, and Tre, their star running back, had had an amazing game. Michael hoped they would replay some of the clips, not because he cared about the plays themselves, but rather for the chance to see Tre in action.

George lowered himself to his recliner with a soft groan. God, I know I’m not as old as I feel.
Michael glanced over, a slight line between his brows. You’re not pushing yourself too hard, are you?
If I didn’t push myself every day, I’d feel even worse than I do now.
George nodded at the screen. "What do they say about New York’s chances today? Is Geary’s injury going to force them
