The Puck Bunny

Twenty-Two

A soft knock on my door came about ten minutes later.

"It's me" Luke's voice followed.

"Come in"

He walked in and saw me curled up on the chair, reading. He smiled as he sat at my feet and rested against the chair. I started to play with his hair, as it had escaped his bun somehow.

"That Fraser kid is a fucking tool, huh?"

"I told you"

"Playing with him is gonna be a nightmare, I can tell"

"You have to put it all aside"

"I know, but I hate knowing how much he's hurt you in just two days"

Oh you have no idea Luke Bennett

"Yeah, but you guys need to have a winning season. Plus, you saw his reaction to finding out Lexi was Tate's girlfriend, and I can only imagine the look on his face when I kissed you goodbye"

"You should have just let me make out with you, I think he would have got the message loud and clear." I rolled my eyes and playfully swatted his shoulder.

"I'm pretty sure your death stares did the trick"

"Poor kid looked like he was about to shit his pants"

"Hate him off the ice"

"I already do"

"That's my girl" I joked, making him look at me. My smile was hard to contain, and I purposefully bit my bottom lip to stop it.

"God damn you Pruitt" He said, standing and pulling me to my feet before crashing his lips down on top of mine.

"I feel like we haven't seen each other in forever"

"Luke, we were just at lunch together. And we ate breakfast together as well"

"You know what I mean, just the two of us hanging out in bed, watching movies or playing Xbox"

"Is that all you think hanging out can be?" I rolled my eyes at him.

"Well, yeah."

"Please, there are much more fun things you and I can do. Plus, it's more satisfying getting to do those things when we've been busy all week and have hardly seen each other"

"More fun things huh? Like what?" His grin spread across his face, making me roll my eyes.

"Like ice skating. Or going for ice cream"

"Don't you get sick of ice skating?"

"Not when we're doing it for fun. Training skating is different to going ice skating. You could hold my hand around the rink."

"We could race"

"I don't think your ego would handle me beating you. Plus, that might have to wait until I don't have a cast on"

"Please, I'm faster than you. I promise."

"I'll hold you to that"

"I'll hold you to me" He proved his statement by pulling me in even closer than we already were and kissing me again.

"So, movie?" Luke suggested after he'd pulled away from me. I rolled my eyes, yet again.

"I have class in half an hour, and you have practice in an hour and a half" I pointed out as he groaned dramatically.

"Fine. But you're coming to the party Friday night, no ifs ands or buts. Except for this butt, this is the only butt you're allowed to bring" He laughed, slapping his hand down on said butt.
