When I finally put myself together, the hallway was mostly empty. Someone tapped my shoulder. I expected to see Jax, but instead, I saw Coach Mike leaning. He looked tired.

"Simpson," he said, nodding toward his office. "A word?"

I followed him in and sat in the chair across from his desk. It was messy, covered in half empty coffee cups and old game sheets. He didn't start talking right away. He just looked at me for a long time, like he was trying to see through me.

  • Romance In The Hockey Pitch   The Final Whistle

    The day of the championship arrived. The arena was packed to the ceiling. The air was freezing, but the energy of the crowd made it feel like it was burning. Thousands of fans were wearing Northwood blue, waving signs and chanting our names. As we skated onto the ice for warm ups, I looked up into the stands. It didn't take long to find them. In the front row, my mom was standing next to Chloe. Mom was wearing a Northwood scarf, her face glowing with a mix of nerves and pride. Chloe was cheering so loud I could almost hear her over the music.Then, I saw him.My father was sitting a few rows back. He was just sitting there, his arms crossed, watching me with that same unreadable expression. My heart gave a heavy thump. He had actually come.The game was the hardest thing I’ve ever done. The other team was fast and aggressive. They knew about the scandal, and they tried to use it. Every time I hit the boards, someone whispered a slur or a joke about the video."Focus, Liam!" Jax shout

  • Romance In The Hockey Pitch   An Apology

    Today, we were out on the ice for our final practice. The sound of skates cutting through the ice was loud. Everyone was focused. We moved in sync, passing the puck back and forth. During a small break, I skated over to the boards to grab my water bottle. I looked around the rink. Something felt missing. I scanned the faces of my teammates; Swiss, Toby, Mark, and the others. Then I realized who was gone."Hey, Swiss!" I called out, wiping sweat from my forehead.Swiss skated over, stopping with a spray of ice. "Yeah, Cap?""Where’s Davis?" I asked, looking toward the locker room door. "The big game is tomorrow. He’s still on the roster. Is he coming?"Swiss shook his head and leaned against his stick. "I haven't seen him since the morning after you came back. He showed up, realized no one was going to talk to him, and he just... disappeared.""None of the freshmen have seen him in the dorms either," Toby added, skating up to join us. "He’s probably hiding. After everything he did, I

  • Romance In The Hockey Pitch   The Hearing

    The time of the hearing was the most nervous I had ever been. Even though the team was behind me and the students were cheering, I knew that the people in the Board Room held my entire life in their hands.Jax and I met up early. We both dressed in our best suits. I wore a dark blue one that my mom had bought for my graduation, and Jax wore a clean black suit. We looked more like young businessmen than hockey players. We didn't talk much as we walked toward the Administration Building. We just held each other’s hands tightly until we reached the front steps.The campus was still buzzing. There were students standing near the entrance, and when they saw us, they gave us thumbs up signs. But as soon as we stepped inside the building, everything changed.We walked into the large room at the top of the stairs. It was the same room where I had been told to leave just days ago. To my surprise, the room was more crowded this time. There were several professors sitting in the back together wi

  • Romance In The Hockey Pitch   The Call Back

    I woke up before my alarm, because of the notification sound coming from my phone. A notification from my school email address.I held my breath.TO: Liam SimpsonFROM: Office of the DeanSUBJECT: Formal Hearing and Review of SuspensionDear Mr. Simpson, follow-up to our previous meeting, the Board of Trustees has scheduled a formal hearing regarding your status at Northwood University. You are required to be present on campus by 2:00 PM today. Your interim suspension has been paused pending the outcome of this hearing. Please report to the Administration Building upon arrival.I sat up so fast I felt dizzy. They were calling me back. I immediately dialed Jax. He picked up on the first ring."Did you get it?" I asked, not even saying hello."I got it," Jax said. He sounded breathless, like he had been jumping around his room. "They sent me one too. Liam, we’re going back. We’re actually going back.""I'm packing my bags right now," I said. "I'll meet you at the dorms in three hours."

  • Romance In The Hockey Pitch   Rebellion

    If you don't get on that plane on Friday, you are cut off. Entirely. I will take the car. I will close your bank accounts. I will remove your name from every trust fund. You will have nothing.""Fine," I said. It was the scariest word I had ever spoken, but it felt amazing to say it. "Take it all. I’d rather have nothing. Jax cares about me. Can’t you see?”The mention of Jax’s name made his face turn a dark shade of purple. "Don't mention that boy in this house again.""His name is Jax," I said again.I turned around and walked toward the door."Liam!" my father barked.I stopped at the door, but I didn't turn back."If you walk out of this room, there is no turning back," he said. His voice was lower now, almost like a threat. "You will be on your own. No one will help you. Not the school, not your friends and certainly not me.""I've been on my own for a long time, Dad," I said. "I just finally realized it today."I walked out of the office and shut the door behind me. I found my m

  • Romance In The Hockey Pitch   My Fathers Choice

    It was already late into the night. I was sitting on the large leather sofa, the glow of the television hitting my face. I wasn't really watching the show. My mind was still stuck on those videos from the student forum. It felt like a dream, but the warmth in my chest told me it was real.Suddenly, the heavy front doors groaned open. I heard the familiar sound of leather shoes clicking against the floor.My father was home.I sat up straight, my muscles tensing. I saw him walk past the entrance of the sitting room. He looked exhausted. His tie was loosened, and his jacket was draped over his arm. "Good evening, Dad," I said. My voice was quiet but clear.He didn't stop. He didn't even turn his head to look at me. It was like I wasn't even there. He just kept walking toward his study, the sound of his footsteps fading as he moved deeper into the house.I sat back down, a bitter taste in my mouth. Being ignored felt worse than being yelled at. I stared at the TV for another twenty min

    The door to my dorm room slammed shut. “Is that what I am to you, Liam?” Jax’s words were a jagged blade on repeat in my mind.I pulled out my phone. My thumb hovered over Jax’s contact. I had called him four times since leaving the rink. Each time, it went straight to voicemail. "Pick up, Jax.

    The drive from Oakhaven back to Northwood was the quietest two hours of my life. I finally pulled up to the curb in front of the dorm, the snow was thick on the ground, muffling the sound of the engine. Jax insisted he could walk from here since it wasn’t so far anymore.I didn't turn the car off.

    The weight of the silence after practice was really heavy for me. I sat in my car in the Northwood parking lot, watching the snow begin to fall in swirling patterns against the windshield. I grabbed my phone from the cup holder and my fingers hovered over the screen. I texted him a set of coordin

    I didn’t knock. I still had the spare key he’d joked about me losing weeks ago. When I stepped inside, the apartment was quiet. Jax was in the kitchen, leaning over the sink, a bag of frozen peas pressed against his left shoulder. He didn't turn around, but I know he knew it was me. He knew the sou
