Hockey Rivalry: Bed first, game later
“Top or bottom?” Ethan's timid voice echoed in the motel room, and Kane scoffed.
“Suck me off first and I'll tell you,” Kane replied and seductively licked his lips.
“What makes you think I’d suck you? How about you kneel for me?” Ethan spat with a grimace, trying to sound unbothered even though he knew he had a lot at stake.
A low, husky chuckle slipped from Kane's lips, and the room fell into a strange silence, their breathing and the soft wind the only sounds between them. Suddenly, Kane wrapped his arms around Ethan's back, pulling him close as his hand slid down to grip him firmly. "Let’s do this."

Chapter: The final whistleDaniel's POV"I am not nervous."That was what I kept telling myself.It would have been more convincing if my hands had stopped shaking.I flexed my fingers inside my gloves and glanced toward the stands. The arena was a sea of blue, white, and red, every section packed with fans chanting over one another. Somewhere in that noise, I heard my name.I looked up.My parents had somehow found seats close enough for me to recognize them. My mother was on her feet, cheering so loudly that the people around her had started laughing. Beside her, both of my dads looked just as tense as I felt.A smile tugged at my lips before I quickly looked away. This wasn't the time to get distracted."Focus, Daniel," I muttered under my breath.The scoreboard glowed above the rink.Canada 2 - 1 America.We were ahead, but one goal meant nothing against a team like America's. One mistake was all it would take for everything to change.The whistle blew, and play resumed. America came at us immediately.The

Chapter: First bloodEthan Oliver Harrison's POVThe referee hadn't dropped the puck yet, but my eyes kept drifting toward Kane.He stood across the ice, rolling his shoulders like he was trying to loosen them. Every few seconds, his gaze wandered toward the stands before he forced it back to the rink.I followed his line of sight. He was staring at his family.So they had actually come.Kane always claimed he didn't care what they thought anymore. Maybe he believed that most days. But seeing them here, watching him, expecting him to win — it was different. Even from where I stood, I could tell they'd gotten under his skin.My gaze shifted to another section of the arena. My parents were there too. Just not for me. They were dressed in Team America's colors, holding banners and cheering with everyone else.I looked away before they noticed me."What are you staring at?" Daniel asked as he skated over.I nodded toward the stands. "The girl with the bunny headband."Daniel followed my gaze, then raised an e

Chapter: FaithKane Hau Alexander's POVThe arena was already alive by the time we arrived.Thousands of voices merged into a deafening roar that echoed through the concrete corridors beneath the stands. They hadn't even announced the starting lineup yet, but the chants had already begun. Some shouted my name. Others called for Team America. A few had started chanting Ethan's name.Normally, this was my favorite part. Before every game, I'd linger in the tunnel, wave at the fans, flirt shamelessly with a few girls, and make sure Ethan caught me doing it just to get under his skin. He always pretended not to care, but the glare he'd send me afterward made the teasing worthwhile.Today, I walked straight past the crowd. I wasn't in the mood. I hadn't been since yesterday.Ethan hadn't answered any of my calls, and deep down, I already knew why.I pushed open the locker room door and sat down without saying a word.Around me, my teammates talked louder than usual. Some were stretching. Others checked a

Chapter: remembranceEthan Oliver Harrison's POV The ride passed quietly. I watched the city move outside the window, but I barely paid attention to anything around me.By the time we arrived, the sky had already started darkening.The air was cooler here. A light breeze moved through the trees, carrying the smell of damp earth and freshly cut grass.I pulled out my phone and checked the location Lilly had sent me weeks ago.After walking for a few minutes, I found it. ‘Lambert Clementine’. I stopped in front of the headstone.Someone had been here recently. Fresh sunflowers rested at the base of the grave. The stems were still green, and the ground around the headstone had been cleared of weeds.Someone had taken care of this place. I wondered who.I stood there for a minute. Then I slowly sat on the grass. I had promised myself I would never come back here. Yet here I was.“I never thought I would visit you again,” I said quietly.The words felt strange. Not because they were untrue. But because I had

Chapter: NervousEthan Oliver Harrison's POVOne Day Before the ChampionshipThe briefing room felt smaller than usual.Coach Marshall stood at the front with a thick file in his hands. He passed copies around while talking about formations, weak spots on the American side, and what he expected from every line.Most of the guys listened carefully. A few took notes while others nodded along.I sat near the end of the table with my hands hidden beneath it.Daniel leaned closer. “Are you nervous?”I shook my head.The truth was, I had been picking at the skin on my left wrist for the past hour. It was already raw, and every time I caught myself doing it, I would stop for a few seconds before my hand found its way back there.I pressed my thumb over the sore spot and forced myself to focus on Coach Marshall.“...if they overload the left side, don't chase the puck. Trust your defense and stay in position.”I nodded along with everyone else, even though I had only caught half of what he said.When the meet

Chapter: Our FutureKane Hau Alexander's POVFour Days Before the Championship:I turned over sluggishly, still half asleep.The room was dimly lit, and for a moment, I couldn't make out anything around me. Then I heard a quiet sniffle.My brows furrowed. I reached across the bed, expecting to feel Ethan beside me, but my hand met nothing.My eyes immediately flew open. I clapped twice, and the lights came on. I looked around the room until my eyes landed on him.Ethan was sitting on the floor with his back against the bed. His head rested on his knees, and every now and then, another sniffle escaped him. He was crying.I climbed out of bed and slowly walked over to him."Oli," I called softly as I crouched beside him. "What's wrong?"He didn't answer. I waited a few seconds before calling him again."Oli."Still nothing.I gently placed a hand on the back of his neck and lifted his head. My chest tightened. His eyes were bloodshot, and tear tracks stained his cheeks.How long had he been crying?I brush
