Author’s note: this one kind of sucks and i’m sorry. I legit wrote it four times all with different plots. I had extreme writer’s block on this. So so so so sorry.

“Why do I have to do this?” you questioned your good friend Max Domi. You could practically feel his pleading stare through the phone, “Because I want you to come to this family skate with me because Estelle can’t come till later and I thought it would be fun for us. I haven’t seen you since last year when I played in Boston,” he reminded you. “Fine, I’ll come. I’ll let you know when I land,” you hung up. It was going to be your first time back to Arizona in a long while. You were one of the few prides of the Arizona hockey world. You paved the way for many to see Arizona as a hockey state making you semi important. You were one of the firsts to get to a pro-hockey league. After playing a few years in Europe and a few years of playing for the US national team, decided to play for the newly National Women’s Hockey League on one or their teams, the Boston Pride.

When your plane touched down your sister was waiting there to pick you up. She engulfed you into a huge hug. “I can’t believe you’re here right now,” she smiled at you. Her skin glowed with a tan from the Arizona sun. “Max has been calling me making sure you didn’t bale out on him,” she told you as she threw your luggage in her car. You rolled your eyes., “You know I’ve only really met Max in person a few times and yet he acts like we have known each other our whole lives,” you laughed. Your sister nodded her head in agreement. “I think he’s just an extreme extrovert,” she laughed. You agreed with her.

Max picked you up at your sister’s apartment. His car was sleek and professional, a car that was too expensive for its own good. He called your name as he got out of the car. He wore jeans and a Yotes t-shirt. You smiled brightly at your friend. “Maxi,” you proclaimed as he held his arms open for you to hug. “I can’t believe you are actually here right now,” he whispered to you while he held you in the embrace. You two broke apart and left for the arena. When you arrived to the arena Max led you through while you carried your skates. You passed many players and their families. You grew self conscious comparing yourself to the women. Their bodies were a lot different than yours. They were skinny while you had an athletes’ build, your thighs and arms were thick with muscles. You quickly shook the feeling off, telling yourself that your body was the exact way you wanted it to be. It allowed you to be the athlete you are. Max brought you to the locker room. “Estelle, I thought you weren’t coming till later,” Max said a little too obvious as he saw his girlfriend. She looked at him, “Surprise, I got off early,” she spoke. You looked at Max, everything coming together, “You lied. Estelle was always going to be here,” you laughed in astonishment. Estelle couldn’t help but to laugh, “What gave it away? Max’s inability to act?” she joked affectionately. You couldn’t help but laugh with her. “I told him he wouldn’t be able to pull it off.” You nodded your head to agree with her statement. Max looked at you both, “Okay whatever, I got her here and that’s all that matters,” he stated proudly. You looked at him a bit confused, “why was it so important for me to be here again?” You questioned. Estelle looked at Max with the ‘this was your plan. You tell her’ look. He rolled his eyes at her, “well you see one of my teammates didn’t have anyone to bring to the skate and was a little down about it so I told him I’d bring a friend. Which is you,” he pointed out. Now it was your turn to roll your eyes at him. “Why didn’t you just ask me?” “Because you could have said no. Now you’re here and so is Jakob,” he responded while looking over your shoulder. You turned around to see who he was looking at and saw a tall blonde boy walking into the locker room. Your heart raced as you made eye contact with him. You turned quickly back to Max. “I can’t be with him. He’s gorgeous,” you panicked. Your mind raced. No man like that could ever be into you. He was gorgeous. He could have anyone. Estelle and Max looked at you with amusement. “Yes, you can, and he’ll be very impressed by your skating skills,” he argued. You rolled your eyes at him. There was no fighting it now. You were already here. He knew he had won. “Awesome, I’ll go get him,” he said as he passed you. Estelle took a step closer and linked her arm through yours. “I’m sorry I let him do it, but I think this would be really awesome for you. You never know he could be the one,” she whispered to you. “You sound like my roommate every time I have a date,” you responded. She was about to respond when another woman come up to her. “Estelle,” she smiled and hugged your friend. She then turned to you, “hi, I’m Brooke,” she spoke sweetly. You responded with introducing yourself. You weren’t particularly sure how you felt about Brooke but to be fair you didn’t know how you felt about Estelle for a while and now you absolutely love her. Estelle and Brooke kept talking as you looked and examined the locker room. The room was bustling with excitement. You could tell how much the players loved moments like these with their family. As you looked at the players, your competitive side come out. You could definitely beat some of these guys on a one on one. Max and Jakob walked over to you.

The moment Jakob walked into the locker room you caught his eyes. He knew Max was trying to set him up but he didn’t really know what that meant, and to be honest he forgot about it. He had been pretty bummed about being alone for the skate (which is why Max brought you) but after seeing you he was excited. He saw you scan the room and read your emotions like a book. You were self conscious about the woman around you. Seeing you like that angered him, how could you not see the beauty you held. Then he saw your face soften when you looked at the relationships across the room. When Max’ walked over, Jakob was ready to meet you. Max kept him waiting for a second blabbing on about things. Finally though, he said it was time to introduce you.

Max introduced the two of you. Jakob’s blue eyes looked at you with interest and attraction, something that made the butterflies in your stomach flutter. The head coach of the Arizona Coyotes, walked into the room with a few other people followed. His eyes scanned the room and as he passed you, he gave you a small cordial nod. Jakob looked back and forth between you too. “Do you know coach?” he asked. You nodded your head, “Kind of, we’ve met a few times in passing. I think,” you answered. Jakob was very confused. “Was it at a Coyotes events. I know I would have remembered you if I had seen you before,” he was trying to figure out more than complimenting you. You laughed a little at that. “I honestly can’t remember.” The coach began to speak, “We all are excited to have you all here today for the annual loved ones skate. Please enjoy it, without you all I’m sure our boys would not be the players they are. Lets skate!” he said and everyone cheered. “Want me to help you put on your skates?” Jakob whispered in your ear. You looked at him a bit confused. Did Jakob not know who you were. He must not have and you couldn’t help but let out a loud laugh. “If you want?” you responded planning to milk this out a bit. He walked you over to his locker stall and you sat down. He “helped” you put on your skates which seemed ridiculous but it was also nice to be treated. “Have you skated before?” he asked as he stood up and held his hand out to you. You chuckled as you took his hand to help you up. “Umm… yes, i have,” you said a bit vaguely wanting to hold out on telling him who you are. It made you feel like you had the upper hand on this situation. “Well, if you need any help, I will be right with you,” he kindly said. You smiled at him sweetly. Jakob was just being nice and maybe you should just tell him who you are but also it would be fun to see his face. He kept a guiding hand on your lower back as the two of you walked out of the locker room and to the rink. An indescribable happiness filled you when you saw the blank sheet of ice in the arena. It was a feeling that overtook you every time you saw ice. Your face followed upwards to the large arena. You had never played a game in this big of an arena so when you stood there, you tried to imagine it. Jakob watched your face light up in excitement. It was gorgeous. He could stand there looking at you for forever, but you had other plans. “Come on,” you said like a kid on Christmas. You grabbed his hand and dragged him towards the open gate. “Be careful,’ he called as you took a step on to the ice. As you were on the ice you looked up around the arena. Jakob skated next to you. “So this is what you see every time you play?” you said in awe. He nodded his head. In a not to far off distance Max was skating at a high speed towards you. Once he got close enough he turned his skates to a stop, spraying you with ice. You pressed up against Jakob. He instinctively wrapped his arms around you in protection. Max let out a laugh. “Max, I’m going to kill you,” you said. He took off skating. You pushed yourself out of Jakob’s embrace and speed off to Max. You caught up to him with ease as you were faster, and luckily for you, he was nearing the boards. You checked him into them. You stayed in that position, pushing him into the glass, “uncle, uncle,” he pleaded. You finally released him, and he fell to the ice laughing. You put your arms up in victory. “Once again, i’m always victorious and Max Domi isn’t,” you cheered. “What the hell was that,” you heard Jakob skating up behind you guys. You looked at him while trying to compose yourself and slow your breathing down. Max was still laughing on the ground, “what,” you brushed some of your hair out of your face. “You can skate, and skate well,” he said flabbergasted. Max who was getting up started laughing and fell onto the ice again. “Yeah she can skate, she’s played for like every women’s team in the world,” he exaggerated. You looked down at him and rolled your eyes, and looked back at Jakob. “Yeah, I’m sorry I didn’t tell you sooner. You were just being really cute and I didn’t want to burst your bubble,” you said sheepishly. “And she’s the devil,” Max pitched in while finally standing on his feet. You looked at him, “Don’t make me push you again,” you glared at him. “That was nothing,” he taunted. “Okay really? Well I know someone who can hurt you, Estelle,” you yelled. Estelle was currently talking to some of the other women but when she heard you call she looked up at you. “Can you come get your man, He’s being a dick” you hollered. She rolled her eyes and looked at Max. ‘Get over her’ she mouthed at him. “tattle tell,” he whispered as he skated towards his girlfriend. You knew she wasn’t going to do anything but get him away from you. “So your a professional hockey player?” Jakob asked. He was totally taken by who you were. You nodded your head and told him your hockey story. The two of you skated around the rink holding hands as he kept asking you about your life. You told him your favorite memory of playing. He told you his. It was really nice to talk to someone so who understood what you were going through but still was curious about it. He thought it was so interesting that you had gotten into hockey as a woman from Arizona. He was impressed. You just fell in love with the sport and because woman’s hockey wasn’t huge here you had to always play with the boys making you always having to work harder to prove yourself. It worked in your favor to get you where you are now. “Are you coming to our game tomorrow?” He asked. You hadn’t actually planned on going to the game as you weren’t going to be in Arizona for too long and tonight but the feelings you had building up for Jakob made you want to say yes. It was a crush in that you knew you shouldn’t pursue but one that you heart was going to make you pursue anyway. You had no control. “I can,” you said to him. His smile grew, “I’m not sure if I should be nervous having you watch me. You actually know the game,” he truthfully joked. You rolled your eyes at him, “You have nothing to worry about. Except if you screw up I won’t ever be able to talk to you again,” you sarcastically spoke. You skated backwards away from him. He shook his head at you. He skated close to you again, “fine, then I won’t give you my jersey to wear.” You kinda stumbled, not expecting him to say that. His hands reached for you effortlessly in a protective way. You looked up into his blue eyes. His smile making you feel weak in your knees. “So, will you wear my jersey and be supportive?” he asked with a teasing tone. “Sure,” you tried to subdue your growing smile, “oh but Max will be pissed,” you joked. Jakob rolled his eyes, “he’ll survive.” The smile on both of your faces. While everyone else was skating, Jakob took you back to the empty locker room. “Stay here while I grab a jersey. Home or Away?” “Home,” you answered. He walked out and you took a minute to settle your heart. You looked around the locker room and smiled. When you woke up this morning you didn’t think you would be having this much fun. In came Jakob and you couldn’t help but have a huge grin on your face. He gave you an amused yet confused look, “What?” he asked. You shook your head at him, “Nothing, I’m just happy,” you responded. He gave you a matching grin, “Here,” he said handing you his jersey. You grabbed it and analyzed it. The Coyotes logo was one you were familiar with but there was a specific happiness in getting a new hockey jersey that over took you.

The next day you were freaking out. You wanted to look good for this game. You wanted to look good for Jakob. You asked Estelle to do your makeup and hair, something she was better at than you. She gladly did it. You wore your favorite jeans and knee high boots. Something you normally would never pair with a hockey jersey but Estelle said it was the normal thing women wore to games.

The first period of the game was intense. The Arizona Coyotes were a physical team and it was getting a rise at the opposing team, Jakob was in the thick of it being a bigger guy. But the second period you were worried for the team. The game was getting dangerously physical and the referees were not taking control of the game. The ice team came out to clean the ice, the jumbotron showed you sitting in your seat. You looked at it a bit surprise but you relaxed as they began to introduce you over the speakers. They told the crowd how many accolades you won as a hockey player, they even showed some clips from your career. They then showed some pictures of you in an (at the time Phoenix) Coyotes Triple A jersey as a young child. The announcer then said how important you were to Arizona and hockey there. You waved to everyone graciously as it showed you again. The arena cheered in gratitude and the players from both benches banged their sticks against the ice and the boards. You were grateful for this moment and a bit embarrassed but you tried to not let it show. Finally when the jumbotron stopped showing you, you looked for the player wearing the number 6. You could see his electric blue eyes staring at you. You smiled and turned your shoulder just enough for him to be able to see his number 6 on it. His mouth grew into a large grin then he returned his focus to the game.

Your nails were nonexistent by how anxious you were. The game was in OT and you had never felt this connected to a game you weren’t a part of. 3 minutes were left in Over Time and Jakob and Max were on the ice. The Coyotes passed the puck a few times and it ended up on Max’s stick. He was quick to pass across the ice to Jakob, where he took a quick slap shot. It soured pass the defensemen and the goalie into the net. The arena went wild and you were no exception. You were screaming and so was everyone else. You hugged Estelle as she was super excited for the team. She had been through a lot of the losing so any when was a good one.

The moment you saw Jakob your adrenaline was still running high so you launched yourself at him. “Oh my gosh you did amazing!” You cheered. He caught you effortlessly and chuckled. When your feet where back on the ground he kept his arms around you. You stood there in his arms and looked up at him. His blue eyes capturing your heart. “The jersey looks amazing on you,” he commented. You couldn’t trust yourself to respond outlaid so you just smiled. “Why don’t you greet me like that,” you hear Max pout to Estelle. You rolled your eyes at him. “So I was thinking,” Jakob pondered, “that maybe I could take you out before you leave?” he asked shyly. Your smile grew into a full toothy grin. “I would love that.”
