Trevor and Niki met the next morning at the gym they shared. 

     They barely looked at each other and did not speak as they began their workout. 

     They generally worked out two hours most mornings before breakfast. 

     That morning, they worked out for nearly five hours, skipping breakfast entirely. 

     They also barely touched their lunch.  

     Lunch was usually followed by a short nap and some down time.  

     That day, they went right back to working out. 

     Hours later, they showered, had a very light meal, then went to their separate bedrooms to collapse into bed and fall right to sleep. 

​     During that entire time, neither of them said a word.
