Chapter 22 Scott I should have kissed her. That was the thought that kept running through my head as I got ready for the game. It was a bad idea. A fucking stupid idea, actually. But knowing that didn't make me want to kiss her any less. Mia had looked so fucking good last night. It had been hard to look away. If she hadn't moved, I was pretty sure I would have done something that would be hard to explain to Reid. She didn't look opposed to kissing me either, which was ridiculous. She hated me. Hell, I hated her. “Hey, come on. We need to get started. The fuck are you moping about?” Liam slapped my shoulders. “Uh, sorry, man.” I stood and put on my gear, shoving my thoughts of Mia to the back of my mind. We were playing the Green Vipers tonight. One of the best college hockey teams in the country. They were fast, lethal, and most of all, the reigning champions. Regardless of their achievement, I was ready. Ready to take their glory. I just wished Reid could p

Chapter 24MiaThe arena roared as Dimitri, captain of the Badgers kicked the puck into the goal.Scott looked stressed. It was 3 to 1 now, and the odds were not looking too good.Shit!I cursed.Today's gameplay was all over the place.Rot got a hold of the puck finally and passed to Liam, who passed to Sergio, who then tried to score a goal. The puck was quickly stolen by the other team.Scott and his winger were after the other team's winger now, but something was off about Scott.He wasn't as aggressive as usual. Almost like he was slowing down.Had he eaten last night?I tried to think.Yes, we'd both eaten before we'd gotten back to the hotel. He’s also eaten this morning and before we left for the game with the other teammates, so what the duv was going on?I scratched my head.“Dylan, put some elbow into it!” Coach Stilinski yelled. He looked absolutely stressed, and I couldn't even blame him.The game finally ended. 3-4Without the team coming up victorious somehow.Scott r

Chapter 26 Mia “I'm having so much fun.” I said to Stacey as I got into the hotel room. Scott had texted me to leave, that he was going to go out with a couple of guys on the team, and that I shouldn't wait around for him. I knew he was upset, so I told him I'd be waiting for him at the hotel even though I was kind of irritated to be excluded from the plans of the team. “Of course you are. You're having plenty of sex with your superstar boyfriend while doing what you love.” I laughed. If only she knew how much sex I wasn't having. I wondered what she would think. When he didn't come back two hours later, I went downstairs to go have a late lunch, but not before texting Scott if he was alright and when he planned on coming back. I was starting to sound like an annoying girlfriend or a controlling boyfriend. I sat at the hotel restaurant, waiting for my order, when I noticed one of the hockey players from the Green Vipers walking towards me. He was the captain. I just didn't re

Chapter 28 Scott It was getting harder to ignore what I was feeling for Mia. Even being close to her was dangerous. I took a drag of my cigarette, savoring the thick flavor of tobacco. My screen lit up just then. It was my father texting me to see if I was still coming for the party. I typed an answer that I was and shoved my phone in my pocket. The streets of Boston were busy. Cars everywhere, and more importantly, people. Fuck. I couldn't wait to go home and for things to go back to normal. I could forget about this fucking injury I had been trying to hide for the past month and maybe even take Mia's advice. Mia… When she'd touched my shoulder earlier, it had taken everything in me not to pull her close and kiss her. Why didn't I take the opportunity? She had looked willing? Or maybe I wanted her to look willing. No, I couldn't afford getting distracted now. My entire future, my pride was riding on getting drafted. Mia was a huge distraction. Sure, I enjoyed her com

Chapter 30 Mia “Hey, Carter. Was just leaving.” I said as casually as possible. Even the smile on my face was casual even though my heart was beating hard against my chest. “Already? I was really looking forward to getting to know you more.” He stepped forward. “We haven't even had time to talk.” “We did talk, Carter. You kissed me against my will.” “I kissed a girl I found attractive at a party. Didn't know that was a crime.” He was so close now that I could smell the alcohol on his breath. I scoffed. “Whatever, I have to go.” I said, checking my app for how far my Uber was. Carter grabbed my hand. “I think you should stay.” “No thanks.” I said and yanked my hands away, but he was stronger than I was. “What are you doing? Let me go.” Carter surprisingly let me go. He flashed a smile that barely reached his eyes and said. “I'll see you around.” Just then, my Uber arrived. I got in and let out a sigh of relief. For a moment there, I thought I had gotten myself into someth
