The Captain Who Forgot Me

Cole Whitfield is the most dazzling captain Greenport High has ever had on a Friday night.

He is also the boy who, three weeks ago, ran three blocks in the rain to pull me out of a parking lot behind the Quik-Mart on Pier Road.

He woke up on the third day. He remembers every play in the offensive book, every quiz score back to freshman year, every party he's ever been to.

Just not me.
