I should be excited.

Starting the new men's line campaign is exactly the kind of challenge I thrive on, the kind that forces me to think bigger, move faster, and prove to myself and my family—again—that I can handle anything thrown at me, even when a man has played in my face. Again.

And yet, every time I sit down to work on it, there's a quiet, persistent awareness in the back of my mind that this entire campaign I'm so focused on is entirely about Bram, whether I want to admit

  • Hockey Boyfriend For Pay   Don’t Think So

    "I think it's better like this, if I give you a drink. You did really well," I say to him. That earns a small smile from him before he gives me a look of disbelief, as if he's asking me if I'm sure about that, "Better than I expected.""That makes more sense," he chuckles, then receives his drink and lifts it to me, "To you and your cool brain. I really liked the idea behind the whole shooting."My eyebrows shoot up and I get genuinely happy about the compliment. This is the best first compliment a flirty guy has ever given me, especially because I haven't seen his eyes going down to my tits even once. He's good. Genuine. Hot. So, I lift my mojito to have a toast."And you, for being the perfect subject to bring my vision to life," I add, making him smile too, so hard his eyes go small. It's very cute, "Don't look away from my eyes or it's seven years of bad sex for both of us.""Shit!" he exclaims before opening his eyes as far as they go and lock eyes with me. I laugh, "Hey, don't

  • Hockey Boyfriend For Pay   Popping Out

    { Anastasia }The second morning of the shoot starts earlier than it needs to, which I justify with a long list of practical reasons involving lighting grids, set lists, and the product display table that I check more times than necessary, because it is much easier to focus on details than it is to admit that I simply do not want to walk in at the same time as him, and I am doing an excellent job of maintaining that illusion right up until I hear his voice somewhere behind the curtain of equipment, followed by an easy laugh that sounds completely normal, which feels wildly inconsiderate given the situation, and my pulse reacts so abruptly that I have to grip the table just to steady myself."I don't care," I murmur under my breath.This is, objectively, a lie, but it is a useful one, so I repeat it once more for good measure before stepping out onto the set with a calm expression and professional posture, moving like nothing is wrong because if I keep moving, there is a chance the fee

  • Hockey Boyfriend For Pay   Light In It

    By midday, the studio finally settles into something that feels less like chaos and more like a system that accidentally works, the earlier stiffness fading into a kind of shaky confidence that everyone pretends is intentional, and Gray, naturally, leans into it like he was born for this exact moment, turning toward me with a grin that suggests he has already decided he's the face of the campaign."I could get used to this," he says, adjusting his stance like he's seen professionals do it a hundred times. "Be honest, do I have a future in this industry?""Absolutely not," I tease him without even glancing up.He freezes, offended in the most theatrical way possible. "Wow. How dare you.""You asked for honesty.""I asked for support, bitch," he lets out, shaking his head in disappointment "As my best friend, you've failed me.""Bah. You'll recover."He snorts, the sound easy and unbothered, then he starts criticizing me for being too loud on camera. The moment drags me out of my own he

  • Hockey Boyfriend For Pay   For It

    Later that same day, when Bram comes back into my office —without knocking this time—,I already know he has something, because there's a subtle shift in his energy, something a little more alert, a little more focused."Coach Adam is coming tomorrow morning," he lets me know, skipping any kind of introduction, "Nine a.m. He wants to meet you here."For a second, I just blink at him, because that was fast."Already?" I ask, raising an eyebrow despite myself. He shrugs like it's nothing."He agreed as soon as I told him it was important for you.""Oh, that's very nice. Okay," I nod, already reaching for my calendar, "Thank you, that's perfect."And then, before I can stop myself, I glance up at him again, just for a second, because there's something about the way he stands there, waiting, that almost feels like the old version of us, but I shut that down immediately."Good work, Kent," I add, because that's what this is now. Work. He gives me a small nod in return, and then he leaves a

And yet, every time I sit down to work on it, there's a quiet, persistent awareness in the back of my mind that this entire campaign I'm so focused on is entirely about Bram, whether I want to admit it or not. He inspired the whole thing. His face, his masculinity, his presence... everything. I can't deny it. It has been three weeks since I ended things and, on paper, everything looks perfectly fine. I've told everyone I'm perfectly fine. I've been out with my old friends and tell them half of the situation with me and Bram, ending it with telling them that I'm completely fine.We work together, we speak when necessary and we maintain a level of professionalism that anyone outside of thi

  • Hockey Boyfriend For Pay   Accusations

    The new guy didn't just blend into the office, he expanded into it, like he had always been meant to exist there and everyone else had just been waiting for him to show up and make things make sense. Bring peace, even. Within the first two days, he managed to bring everyone out in the open office together, both teams that have been separated since I came here. It was honestly annoying how quickly everyone started loving him, but it's probably mostly because everyone has been so freaked out after Tyler was fired. But Daniel is winning everyone over because he goes around the whole office all day just sucking up to each individual person and forcing conversations, he also knows everything about everything and is willing to take on any work, anytime. It's like an undercover robot sent here to make me look bad. He’s also probably just as tall as me and almost as attractive. So, I do not like that guy at all. "... that little switch could change the whole vibe and make it seem m
