Ambrose's POV:

Today is Saturday, which means two things. One is that it is the first day of my grounding for pouring milk on Jake at school a few days ago. Two is that today I have a hockey game at 6 AM, a soccer game at 830 AM, then I go home to do my chores, and finally I have a Jiu Jitsu tournament at 6 PM. I got woken up by my dad at 5 o'clock to eat breakfast, put on my Adidas track pants and jacket with the team logo and my name and number on them. Then I packed my sports bag with both uniforms I'll need this morning.

Arriving at the ice rink everything was normal until I saw a group of people. I didn't think anything of it at first, maybe they were family of some players for the other team. I forgot about them for a while as I made my way to my other teammates. "Wildcard!" is what multiple of my teammates yelled as I made my way over to them with my heavy sports bag on my shoulder. We all started talking and just goofing off before we had to go to the locker room and be serious. Everything was fine until I saw something out of the corner of my eye. One of the men in the group was looking around and spotted me, then suddenly the entire group with the man was looking at me. It was creeping me out a little bit so I just tried to keep my back turned to them, out of sight out of mind, is what I told myself.

I stayed goofing around with my teammates for another ten minutes before coach told us it's time to go to the locker room to get geared up for the game. As we were walking in my best friend/goalie, Walker 'the wall' Brain, walked next to me "Hey dude, do you know those people over there? They haven't taken their eyes off you since you walked over to the group." he asked me, his voice laced with worry. "No, I don't know them but I noticed them watching me. Are they still watching me?" I say to him quietly as to not let anyone around us know what we are talking about. He looks over my shoulder to check, "Yea they are still looking. The thing that makes it even weirder is that some of them have your weirdly blonde/white hair. There is even a kid our age with them that looks identical you." he tells me still, looking at the group we were talking about.

I decided what was the harm and looking at them. I mean they couldn't look that similar to me and there was no way there is a kid that looks identical to me too. I turned to look over my shoulder, finally getting a good look at the group. When I do, I get the surprise of my life and automatically let out a gasp. Walker was telling the truth that was for sure. The adult male with hair similar to mine had a woman in his arms who had hair that was brown on top and blond underneath and they both had a hand on each shoulder of the kid standing in front of them. The adults were talking to each other, looking over at me occasionally, while the kid who even I admit looks like my clone was watching everything around him in wonder as if he had never been outside. The boy suddenly looks over at me only to realize I was already looking at him. A smile took over his face so bright that I couldn't help a small smile of my own. He didn't take his eyes off me as he started to tug on the adults', probably parents', sleeves making them look down at him. They saw he was looking over at me. The boy and I for some reason could not stop starring at each other, it was like we were both trapped in a trance, all the noise around me suddenly sounded like I was under water.

We both stayed like that for what felt like hours but turned out was only a couple of minutes when a hand was placed roughly on my shoulder. Walker's hand knocked me from the trance enough to hear what was going on around me. It took a slap on the back of the head and a voice yelling in my ear for me to finally break completely out of it. I turned to Walker who was waiting for me, holding both of our headphone sets in his hand. I looked back over to the boy one last time before putting on my new set of wireless Beats headphones, which Walker had already set on our warmup playlist. We quickly walked into the building to catch up with our other team mates.

3RD POV:
As Ambrose walked away, not daring to look back, even though he felt strong pains through his chest making his knees buckle. Ambrose had to lean on the wall for support. He tried to keep walking but the sound of a voice stopped him in his tracks. A voice very similar to Ambrose's yelled out "Poseidon!" The voice made Ambrose have no control over his own body. He turned and with every ounce of his being ran back out of the building. Ambrose scooped his look alike in his arms and held him close as they both cried in pain. Walker ran out and stood behind Ambrose while looking at the adults that were with the other Ambrose. "What's happening?" Walker questioned. Ambrose took that as a question towards him and just shook his head saying "I don't know." through his tears. The two had to let go of each other after a few minutes, but still held the other one's hand. Ambrose found out that his look alike's name is Draco. The two agreed they would meet up after the game by the locker room. Draco and Ambrose walked together with Walker and Draco's family behind them. They all walked to the locker room so that they knew where to go afterward. As they went to go get seats the pain in my chest came back, but not as bad as before as they knew they would see each other right after. It was bearable through so Ambrose went to get his gear on after he made sure Draco's pain wasn't too bad. Ambrose got ready in the locker room since I only had fifteen minutes to be ready to get on the ice.

AMBROSE POV:
The pain did not stop, but I played through it. When I was in the penalty box or on the bench I would constantly be staring at Draco who would be staring right back at me. Whenever I was on the ice I would do my best to focus only on the game, which was mostly working, only meeting his eyes a few times. I was constantly getting in fights because the players from the other team were targeting Walker or just playing dirty so the penalty box was my friend for a good part of the game. I also got slammed into the boards a few times, one of the times was right in front Draco. Him and his parents looked so worried when it happened that I felt the need to send them a small smile and nod just to show I was okay. I don't even know why I cared so much about them being scared and worried about me but for some reason I was. When the game was over, my team ended up winning, I huddled up with my teammates to celebrate. I looked up into the stands looking for the Draco and his family. I saw them just as they were leaving and without thinking I gave the him a giant smile that matched the one he gave me outside when we first saw each other, making him smile that same way once again when he realized the smile was meant for him.
