"Guess what we saw last night," Dean said as he tapped Carson's shoulder and motioned between himself and Fulton.




"If it was your socks and shirts crawling around on your floor, it probably means you should wash them," Carson said, briefly looking up from tying her skates before laughing at her joke. She pulled up the legs of her compression shorts and looked around her for the bio freeze she'd brought with her.




"Our socks and shirts are decently clean," Dean said and lightly shoved her shoulder. Carson laughed harder before grabbing the bio freeze from Fulton when he tapped her other shoulder with it. She mumbled a small 'thank you' before rolling it onto her thighs and shoulders.




"So, tell me about what you saw last night during your adventures past curfew," Carson prompted as she screwed on the cap of the bio freeze and pulled down her compression shorts. She stood up and pulled on the black leggings she wore under her leg pads. She placed her bag on the bench and started putting her hockey equipment in it.




"Bombay with the Iceland lady. Their athletic trainer or whatever she is," Fulton said and glanced up at her before turning back to his locker and angrily grabbed his jersey. Carson sharply inhaled through her nose and looked at him with wide eyes and a clenched jaw.




"You're kidding me, right?" Carson asked and nudged Fulton's shoulder. Fulton shrugged and sat his jersey on the bench and continued to shove his equipment into his bag without looking at her. She looked up at Dean and sighed when he gave her a small shrug and a sad smile. She looked between the two as she tried to decide who to question before huffing and turning to her bag.




"All right, are we ready for warm-ups?" Bombay asked and walked into the locker room. Carson's eyes widened and she gasped at her coach's fancy suit and slicked-back hair. When Bombay glanced at her, she quickly ducked her head and turned around to face her locker. The rest of the team cheered and laughed at Bombay while Carson pretended not to look at him and Dean and Fulton stared.




"Nice jacket. Did you get two pairs of pants with that?" Averman asked and walked over to Bombay. The team laughed before going back to getting dressed.




Fulton looked at Dean before tilting his head towards Bombay. Dean nodded once and the two began walking to Bombay. Carson grabbed Fulton's arm and caught a fistful of Dean's undershirt and shook her head when they looked back at her. Fulton grabbed her hand and squeezed it before dropping it and took a long step out of her reach. She quickly wrapped both hands around Dean's arms and locked out her legs to stop him.
