"You mean like... what I'd want for a degree?" Josh hunched his shoulders for a second and let them drop. "Huh. Dunno. Never really thought about it. I didn't excel at anything in school."

"You don't have to excel to like something," she said with a slow, owl like tilt of her head to one side.

"Uuuuh..."

Well, she had him there.

"Alright. I'm not... really sure what I... huh." Josh paused. "I don't really know what I want to do for a living. I never even considered playing football professionally."

"So you're a football player? Sweet. I'm not huge into sports. Kinda know basketball a bit, but I'm a gymnast."

"Are you kidding?" Josh laughed. "Gymnastics is like, sportiest of sports. Maybe it's not on ESPN but I've seen it on the Olympics. That crap looks impossible!"

He let his head roll to one side lazily. "I just sorta ran at people. I wasn't like, a QB or anything."

"You actually like gymnastics? That's so cool! Most guys are docks about it."

Leif laughed, fiddling with the rest of her apple idly between her hands.

"I guess QB means quarterback? Those are the dudes that chick's fall all over, right? What position did you play?"

"It's high school football, so like... you can usually have a couple positions. I was offensive tackle and defensive tackle dependin' on the season or play," Josh said. "So, short answer, I was a lineman. Makes sense, right? Big heavy dude, pushin' against the other guy..."

He crossed his arms and rested on them. "But yeah. I'm big into like... all of the Olympics when they come around. I can't wait for 'em!"

Leif contemplated what he said for a moment, trying to figure out exactly what it meant. Then, she gave a shrug and chuckled.

"I usually watch the Olympics for the gymnastics, but that's about it. Sometimes the stuff like diving."

"I guess you only really like the summer ones, then?" Josh guessed. "Shame. The winter ones are really good too. It's bizarre to try and think about how some sports got invented... like Curling!"

"Curling?"

Her brows furrowed together in confusion.

"The hell is that?"

Hooooo boy.

"Okay, so like... so it's on ice, right? So think hockey, only instead of sticks and a puck, the players take these stones, right? And then they slide it along the ice and these other players take brooms. But they're not allowed to touch the stone, okay? They... uh, they sweep the ice really fast in front of the stone to control where it goes and how fast it goes. Then the stone lands on this circle and the more stones on the circle or like... how close they are to the center, the better!"

He took a moment to reflect on what he just said.

"Huh. Wow. It IS pretty weird."

Leif laughed lightly, leaning back and giving a shake of her head. That didn't make ANY sense, but hey. Whatever.

"WELL then. Sounds, ah... interesting? I probably wouldn't be able to stop laughing."

She couldn't stop the bubbling laughter, wrapping her arms around her waist. She didn't seem to be laughing AT Josh, at least.

Leif's laughter was just so damn infectious that Josh couldn't help but laugh a little as well.

"Leave it to the Canadians, I guess," he said, pushing his tray away since he was done with practically everything save a few crumbs here and there. "They make the best sports. But yeah, so we're like... both athletes, just on opposite ends of the spectrum."

She continued to laugh,giving a shake of her head. "Bloody Canadians," she said with a wrinkle of her nose.

Then, she nodded, catching herself and remembering to breathe.

"I guess so, yeah. You're, what? Brute force? I'm all flexibility."

"I can run in a straight lane and barrel through stuff. I wouldn't even say I'm the strongest guy, but hey, I know how to throw my weight around!" Josh laughed. "But gymnastics... that stuff's crazy. Especially like, uneven bars."

"One of my specialties, actually."

Her face lit up. It was obvious this was something she liked talking about.

"You'll have to show me sometime. The next time y'train or whatever, invite me!" Josh swung his leg over to straddle the bench of the lunch table and rested his elbow next to his tray.

"I mean, if you want to. I don't know if it's imposing or anything."

"I go down to the gym every day."

Leif snickered, giving a shake of her head.

"It isn't imposing. I would love to have your opinion on my new routine. I don't have a trainer anymore."

Going to the gym every day?

"I think... uh... I need to do that. Maybe turn the ol' keg into a six pack," Josh said, patting his gut. Of course that was a pipe dream, but it never hurt to be in more shape. Still, if getting cut meant not eating whatever he wanted to eat and as much of it as he wanted, well... that was just out of the question.

"I'll follow ya tomorrow, then! Man... every day... how do you find time to do that, anyway?"

"You make time for the things you love," she said simply with a shrug of one shoulder.

"Alright. Well, anyway." Josh stood up and picked up his tray.

"Tomorrow, gym? What time?"

"Three?"

"PM, I hope."

That was a joke. Nobody around here got up at 3 AM, right? With a smile, Josh headed off.
