The Hockey Captain Shows Up in My Room Every Night Chapter 11
When the new semester started, Theodore made sure we became the most talked-about couple on campus.During the off-season, he came to class with me.He'd plastered pictures of me all over his social media, and most of his rabid fan club had drifted away.I told him he was nothing like the cold, untouchable “Ice Prince” everyone talked about.He was clearly pleased.“I've made sure everyone knows I'm taken. That way, nobody will dare try to break us up.”He pulled me against him with one arm, sounding jealous. “What about you? Everyone knows we're together, so why do guys still throw themselves at you?”I explained patiently, “Those are just classmates being friendly. That guy today, for example, just wanted help with a problem set.”Theodore raised an eyebrow.“If he was there to study, why wasn't he looking at the problems? Why was he staring at you the whole time?”He held me even tighter.“Freya, keep your eyes on me. No one else.”The next day, he showed up with a workbook.“Freya,

When I arrived at the victory party, I could feel eyes on me.No one was leering at me. Their looks were admiring but respectful.I wore the little cocktail dress I'd carefully chosen, one that showed off the body I'd worked so hard for.Tonight, I wanted to dress up.To celebrate surviving finals week.And to catch a certain someone's eye.“Freya!”Theodore's voice came from behind me. When I turned, his eyes widened in open admiration.One of his teammates clapped him on the shoulder.“That's her, right? The sweetheart who gave you the dreamcatcher?”Then he turned to me and said warmly, “You have no idea how grateful the whole team is to you. Ever since Theodore started carrying your dreamcatcher around, his rotten temper's gotten way better.”Theodore kicked his loudmouthed teammate out of the way.He straightened his bow tie and stopped in front of me.His heated gaze swept over my face, my collarbone, and...“Long time no see.”I said it to stop him from checking me out like that

After the Wish Room closed, Theodore and I didn't see each other for a week.I was swamped with finals, and he was busy preparing for the last game of the season.Our last conversation had ended with this message from him.“Freya, I'm so glad I'm the hottest guy on campus in your eyes.”He's so full of himself! I decided to leave him hanging for a while.Besides studying hard for my exams, I'd gotten into the habit of working out every day.I had to admit, all that exercise had made me a lot stronger.When finals were over, I ranked first in my major.My professor said, “Freya, I've always believed in you. And now you shine brighter than ever.”I knew why.I couldn't help thinking of Theodore, who was far away at his game. He was the one who'd helped me become more confident and courageous.Because of my grades, Isaac's mom chewed him out until he was too ashamed to hold his head up.Isaac couldn't let it go, so he and Amanda cornered me, only for a passing professor to scold them for

Seeing my dreamcatcher hanging over his bed felt unreal.Then my phone rang, and I frowned.It was Isaac. Theodore saw the name on the screen, and his smile disappeared.“Your little childhood buddy sure is clingy.”Since when is he so snide?And what does that lunatic Isaac want now?When I picked up, Isaac's loud voice filled the room. “Freya, you actually know Theodore? How is that even possible?”“That's between Theodore and me. You don't need to know.”“But you like me. Didn't you come to the game to see me?”I watched Theodore. He had his back to me, digging through a cabinet for something, but I had a feeling he was listening to every word.Isaac was still yapping on the other end.Fed up, I cut him off. “Enough, Isaac. I never liked you. Knock it off and stay out of my life.”“Then what about Theodore? Do you like him?”I stared at Theodore's back.“No question. He's a lot easier to like than you are.”Wait. What did I just say?When did I start thinking of Theodore like that?

After that day, we got more and more in sync in the dream room.Theodore even invited me to come watch one of his hockey games.When I sat down in the front row, I could hear his fangirls screaming behind me.“Look at him. Theodore is pure testosterone. I'm getting hot just watching him!”“Remember last time, in the second period? The moment Theodore hit the ice, he tied the game for his team. The way he took over that game was so hot! That was the night he showed up in my dream, breathing hard all night long!“If only that dream were real! I wonder who'll be lucky enough to have Theodore all to herself someday. With a body like his, I'm already jealous of her!”By the end of the game, my face was on fire, and I couldn't get the image of Theodore tearing across the ice out of my head.This is what Theodore's fangirls are like? They're so... bold. So explicit.“What are you doing here?”Amanda was standing in front of me, frowning, her arm hooked through Isaac's.“Did you find out Isaac

Back in the dream room, I watched Theodore in the wall-to-wall mirror.He had the same dark circles under his eyes that I did.What's going on? I stayed up on purpose, but did he have trouble sleeping too?This can't go on.I hated letting stupid feelings mess with my studies, and I didn't want to screw up his life either.Now that I knew Theodore was actually a good guy, I felt even worse about dragging him down.I spoke up first. “Theodore, what if I found a personal trainer?”“What?” His gaze snapped to me.What is happening? Is the room getting colder?I explained with a smile, “You know, a real-life trainer. That way, you won't have to work so hard training me.”He didn't answer.He was probably thinking it over.I studied myself in the mirror. My curves were already taking on that peach shape, but I had no idea what the wish system counted as reaching the goal.It wasn't just one area, either. My whole body was becoming more defined.It was an amazing surprise. Working hard for a
