Play Along

In a text, Dean invites Kennedy to a family dinner. Kennedy says she’ll pass, and Dean berates her for marrying Isaiah. The team is in Atlanta, and Kennedy and Isaiah have been assigned to the same room. No rooms are left, because Glen, the travel coordinator, gave the last one to Reese. Isaiah takes it in stride as part of their plan, but Kennedy is not comfortable with the arrangement, especially when she sees only one bed. Isaiah offers to sleep on the floor, but as the trainer, Kennedy forbids it and says she’ll sleep on the floor. Isaiah’s friends invite him for a drink, and he changes clothes in front of Kennedy. She has seen his body before but can’t stop staring at his chiseled, muscular physique, and Isaiah notices that she is looking at him.

Kennedy forgot her toothbrush, so Isaiah skips drinks with the guys and takes her to the drugstore. While browsing the toothbrushes, Kennedy realizes that Isaiah is colorblind. Travis had to describe her hair color to him, and he memorized it. Isaiah touches her arm, and she instinctively pulls away. Isaiah asks if she has experienced unwanted physical touch before. Kennedy explains that it is quite the opposite—she was rarely touched as a child because her family sent her away to boarding school and was never affectionate with her.
