Harper POV

The Ice House is chaos tonight.

Music pounds through the walls, bass vibrating through the porch floor. Someone inside is shouting Logan’s name like they’re announcing another goal, and every few seconds a burst of laughter explodes from the living room.

The team is celebrating.

Which makes sense.

They just won.

But instead of being inside with them, Logan is standing out here on the porch with me.

Cold air brushes across my cheeks as I lean against the railing, watching him.

  • Breaking The Ice Between Us   Chapter 131

    Harper POVBy the time Logan and I reach the quiet side of campus, the noise from the Ice House is gone.No music.No shouting teammates.Just the soft buzz of streetlights and the sound of our footsteps on the pavement.Logan’s hand is still wrapped around mine.Warm.Steady.Like he has no intention of letting go.I glance sideways at him.“You really just left your entire team’s celebration.”“They’ll survive.”“You’re the captain.”“They’re drunk.”“That’s not the same thing.”Logan just grins.“You worry too much.”I shake my head.“You don’t worry enough.”He suddenly stops walking.I almost run straight into him.“What—”The rest of the sentence disappears when Logan pulls me closer.The warmth of his body hits me instantly.My heart begins racing.“Logan…”“What?”“You’re doing that thing again.”“What thing?”“Standing too close.”He leans down slightly, his voice dropping.“I’m standing exactly where I want to.”My breath catches.“You’re impossible.”“Yet you’re still here.

    Harper POVThe Ice House is chaos tonight.Music pounds through the walls, bass vibrating through the porch floor. Someone inside is shouting Logan’s name like they’re announcing another goal, and every few seconds a burst of laughter explodes from the living room.The team is celebrating.Which makes sense.They just won.But instead of being inside with them, Logan is standing out here on the porch with me.Cold air brushes across my cheeks as I lean against the railing, watching him.His hair is still damp from the post-game shower, falling messily across his forehead. He pulled on a dark hoodie before coming outside, the sleeves pushed up slightly at his wrists.He looks relaxed.Loose.Still riding the adrenaline of the win.I tilt my head slightly and study him.“So, Mr. Shaw,” I say sweetly, “how exactly do you plan on celebrating this win?”Logan groans immediately.“Oh God.”“What?”“Don’t call me Mr. Shaw.”“Why not?”He runs a hand through his hair.“Because it makes me sou

    Logan POVThe Ice House is loud tonight.Music blasting through the speakers. Guys shouting over each other. Someone already opened another case of beer.We won.Not just won—dominated.And when the final horn sounded and the crowd started chanting our names, it felt like everything clicked again.Skating felt effortless.Every pass landed.Every shot had purpose.Coach even clapped me on the shoulder in the locker room.“Keep playing like that and scouts will be lining up.”The guys are still riding the adrenaline now.Marco is trying to convince Cole to do a keg stand in the kitchen.Someone shoved a hockey stick into the ceiling fan.Typical post-win chaos.Normally I’d be right in the middle of it.Tonight?I’m slipping away.I grab my jacket and head toward the back hallway, ignoring Marco yelling after me.“Shaw! Where you going?”“Out,” I call.“Don’t do anything I wouldn’t do!”“That’s a very short list,” Cole adds.Laughter follows me as I step outside into the cold night air

    Logan POVThe quad is busy.It’s always busy this time of day—students cutting across campus between classes, people sitting on the grass with laptops, a couple guys throwing a football near the fountain.Normally I wouldn’t even notice.I’ve walked across this quad a thousand times.And most of those times people stare.Whisper.Point.That part has never really bothered me.You get used to it when you’re the captain of the hockey team.When your face ends up on posters for games.When people know your name before you know theirs.Attention becomes background noise.Something you tune out the same way you tune out the hum of the arena lights.It’s just part of the deal.I push open the doors of the academic building and step outside, slinging my bag over my shoulder.A couple guys from one of my classes nod at me.“Shaw.”“What’s up.”“Nice move last night, man.”I shrug.“Charity.”They laugh like they don’t believe me.Whatever.I start across the quad toward my next class.And abo

    Logan POVThe locker room after practice smells like sweat, tape, and bad decisions.Pretty standard.Guys are scattered around the benches—some still half-dressed, others already in the showers, the constant noise of chirping and locker doors slamming bouncing off the tile.Normally I’d be right in the middle of it.Today I’m just… listening.Cole drops onto the bench next to me, pulling off his shoulder pads.“You’re still flying out there,” he says casually.“Practice was good.”“That’s one way to put it,” he snorts. “You were skating like someone insulted your mother.”I shrug, unlacing my skates.Maybe someone did.Just not my mother.“Seriously though,” he continues, lowering his voice, “whatever mental hurricane you had going on last week? Keep channeling it like that.”I chuckle faintly.“Noted.”Across the locker room Marco tosses a towel at someone.“Yo Shaw!” he shouts. “Five thousand dollars, man! You planning on auctioning off your truck next?”A few guys laugh.Another v

    Harper POVBy noon the campus feels… different.At first I think it’s in my head.But by the time I cross the quad on the way to my afternoon class, it’s impossible to ignore.People are staring.Not subtle glances either.Full looks.Whispers.Two freshmen sitting on the steps literally turn around to watch me pass.“Is that her?”“Yeah, that’s the girl from the auction.”“The one Logan Shaw dropped five grand on.”My stomach tightens.Right.The gossip page.I should’ve known it would spread fast.College campuses run on caffeine, deadlines, and rumors.And right now?Apparently I’m the rumor of the week.I keep walking like I didn’t hear them.Like my shoulders don’t feel tighter with every step.By the time I reach the student union doors, I’m starting to wish I’d worn sunglasses and a hat.Inside is worse.Two girls sitting near the coffee counter glance up immediately.One of them nudges the other.“That’s her.”I focus on the coffee machine like it’s the most fascinating invent
