Ethan Oliver Harrison’s POV

The applause for the awards was still going on when I stood up. I didn’t remember deciding to stand. My body just… moved.

“Ethan,” Daniel called softly, but I walked past him.

I couldn’t sit there any longer. Not after that speech. Not after that look on Noah’s face. Not after hearing them laugh. Not after knowing that I wasn't as important as I thought.

The hallway outside the ceremony hall was quieter, but not silent. There were still people moving around, staff, s

  • Hockey Rivalry: Bed first, game later    Carl's suspicion

    Kane Hau Alexander's POV“You look like rubbish,” Carl's voice echoed in my room.I hissed and put the closest pillow on my ear to stop me from hearing his voice, but it was futile.“Don't hide away from me, Kane. I've got good news for you, and trust me, you will be fucking happy,” Carl said. His voice was filled with urgency, and his normal excitement seemed to have doubled.I was in a bad mood, and I certainly didn't want to talk to him. But the confidence in his voice assured me that he might be onto something serious.“Speak! What's it?” I replied, my face still buried under my duvet.“He's all yours. You don't have to worry about him being mad at you or breaking your heart. I have his secrets, and with them, he will listen to you. At least for a while,” Carl whispered with a cunning smile.My eyes widened, and I jumped up. “What the fuck are you talking about?! Did I send you on an errand?”Carl looked surprised and frowned. “Kane, have you forgotten so quickly? You put me in ch

  • Hockey Rivalry: Bed first, game later    my captain

    Ethan Oliver Harrison’s POVThe flight back to Canada felt longer than usual.I spent most of it staring out the window with my headphones on, even though no music was playing. Nobody really bothered me either. Which was strange.Usually, someone on the team was loud while the rookies argued over games. By this time, Derrick’s minions would be acting nosy, with Daniel trying to drag me into conversations I didn’t care about.But today, everyone kept looking at me before quickly looking away again.I knew why. It's because Derrick had changed the atmosphere around me without saying it directly. Ever since New York, the others had started treating me carefully, like they were waiting for instructions on how to act around me.Derrick and I were cool, and that alone was enough to stop most people from trying anything stupid.The second we landed, the cold Canadian air hit me straight in the face as we walked through the airport. Normally, Daniel would’ve been beside me by now, talking too

  • Hockey Rivalry: Bed first, game later    Who hurt him?

    Daniel's POVI agreed to Carl’s condition, and we visited many beautiful places together. He showed me a paradise. A place I had visited several times but never seen as amazing as he did. I wouldn’t say we became friends, but we enjoyed our time together, and while with him, I wished I’d brought Ethan along. He deserves to see such beauty.“You sure look happy? Any good news you'd like to share?” Derrick's voice echoed in my head, pulling me from my thoughts.“Ehh?” I furrowed my brows, unable to comprehend what he had said on time.Derrick scoffed and moved to pick up his travelling bags. We were at the airport on our way back to our country.I don’t know why the training was cancelled, but after Ethan left for God knows where and I followed Carl in his car, a lot of things happened. Derrick didn’t tell me the full details, but from what I heard, Mr. Rogers disappeared and Coach Marshall was asked to return to Canada immediately.“Is anyone even listening to me? Everyone looks bu

  • Hockey Rivalry: Bed first, game later    Goodbye, Hau

    Kane Hau Alexander's POV“Shula?”The moment Ethan said her name, something changed in his face. He went quiet, not the normal kind of quiet either. It was the kind where someone is trying very hard not to react in front of you.I hated it immediately. For one stupid second, I almost told him the truth. That Shula was my sister. That she was adopted, and that there was nobody else in my life.The words nearly came out. But I stopped myself, because if I didn’t end this now, my family would eventually do it for me. And they wouldn’t care how badly it destroyed him.I still remember his experience with Lambert. I remembered what happened after Lambert's parents found out about their friendship. It wasn't even as serious as mine.I couldn’t let Ethan go through that again.“So who is she?” Ethan asked again.His voice sounded controlled, but I knew him too well. He only sounded like that when he was upset.“Shula is important to me,” I answered carefully.The moment the words left my mou

    FLASHBACKEthan Oliver Harrison’s POVThe message was sent with a soft vibration.I stared at the screen for a few seconds after it disappeared, my thumb still hovering uselessly over the keyboard.That was the fifth one today.I slowly lowered the phone into my lap and rubbed my face with my free hand. My room was dark except for the light from the screen and the faint glow coming from outside the window.The phone didn’t even feel real to me.I’d bought it three towns away using cash because I was paranoid someone would somehow trace it back to me. The phone had no personal accounts, no contacts, and nothing connected to Ethan Harrison, captain of Team Canada.Still, my heart wouldn’t calm down. It felt ridiculous when I really thought about it.Kane had posted a public number online earlier that morning. Thousands of people were probably messaging him right now. Fans, reporters pretending to be fans, girls asking him to marry them, and guys begging for signed jerseys.My messages w

  • Hockey Rivalry: Bed first, game later    It's Over?

    Ethan Oliver Harrison's POV The shadows were the only reason I hadn’t been caught yet. Even then, they felt unreliable tonight.I stayed several steps behind Kane, keeping my head low whenever we passed under streetlights or security cameras. My shoes scraped lightly against the pavement as I moved from one pillar to another, trying not to lose sight of him.A few of the coaches were following him too. I recognized them immediately by the way they hovered nearby without getting too close, like they were waiting for him to snap at them.Which he eventually did.“I said I want to be alone.”His voice carried across the parking lot. Calm, but sharp enough to make all three men stop walking. They exchanged glances before reluctantly turning back toward the arena.I stayed where I was behind the wall, barely breathing. Because technically, he hadn’t been talking to me.Fans started flooding out of the main entrance soon after, loud and excited, their phones already raised. Kane didn’t ack

Isn't that Kane, one of the United States players?” Derrick's eyes widened, and his index finger was pointed at a moving figure. “Why is he moving towards us? What does he want? Is he here to cause trouble?” he stuttered, and quickly sat upright.My other t
