Secrets Beneath Teenage Love: A Mighty Ducks and Newsies Story

Chapter 17 | Love Triangle (Part 2)

Anastasia sits down in the hallway outside of the locker room glaring at the door.

Banks turns the corner spotting her Ana!

She looks into the direction hey Banks!

Adam walks to Anastasia putting his varsity hockey duffel next to him and takes a seat next to her holding her hand.

Why are you sitting out here? Isn't JV practice over?

Yeah well Connie she looks into Adam's blue eyes remember they are best friends Connie isn't okay with the whole me, you, and Dean. She's been going after me on the ice.

Honestly, I'm not okay with it either Adam starts to make circular positions on Anastasia's hand trying to calm her.

I know Ana looks at the JV locker room door.

But Connie should not be going after you. I'll talk to her.

Thanks, Anastasia turns back to Banks kissing him on the cheek.

I need to know before I ask you something. Are you and Portman serious?

No, not really Anastasia says.

Okay, I was wondering if you wanted to go out on a date Saturday. Banks looks at her.

Yes, that sounds perfect actually. She smiles leaning closer to him.

He places his arm around her waist as he looks into her brown eyes. Then he softly kisses her.

Anastasia begins to kiss back missing the familiar touch of his hand on her waist; and the softness of their kisses.

Their kiss gets more intense as someone clears their throat. Vlanterrin and Banks break their kiss looking into the direction of the noise.

Varsity Captain Rick Riley walks down the hall. He stops in front of them as Vlanterrin and Banks gets up.

Banksie whose this? Riley's eyes look over Anastasia's body.

Anastasia begins to feel sick crossing her arms over her chest. None of your concern she glares at him.

This is my girlfriend Anastasia, Banks responds not wanting to make things worse.

I didn't know you had a girlfriend. I can see why you keep her guarded Riley looks at Anastasia again and smiles. We need to get to practice say goodbye to your little girlfriend Banksie.

I'll text you okay Banks kisses Anastasia on the cheek and picks up the duffel besides him.

Sure. She watches Adam walk towards the Varsity locker room.

....

10 minutes later, the Junior varsity doors open. Charlie, Portman, and Fulton walk out.

Hey Vlanterrin, have fun sitting out here? Fulton says dripping with sarcasm smiling.

Oh yeah loads, it's always great when your man puts you in time out she rolls her eyes as they walk to the exit door.

Why do you make her sit outside? Charlie looks at Portman.

Simple dude, my girl has a temper. She needs to cool off before she explodes. It's best that the person pissing her off is not in sight. Portman answers opening the door to the outside. Portman holds Ana's hand. My girl is acts like a princess on the outside but is a beast on the inside.
