Ace's pov:

Two weeks later:

These past two weeks have been nothing but pure bliss. I've been spending almost every day with Sophia. I've taken her on several dates and gosh she's fucking incredible. Next week I have to go on a trip with my hockey team to compete against another school so I'm trying to spend a shit ton of time with her right now.

I have a big game tonight and I really want her there so I'll text her right now.

Me: Hey, I have a game tonight and I'd love it if you'd come and watch.

Her: Of course! I'll be there to cheer you on;)

Me: See you there sweetheart.

Fuck, I cant wait to see her.

Later that day:

The game starts in an hour but I decided to meet Soph here early.

As soon as I spot her I can't help but smile, she hasn't noticed me yet so I decide to admire her for a few seconds. When she spots me her face lights up and she eagerly runs towards me. She launches herself in my arms giggling and says ''I've missed you''. I chuckle, ''you just saw me yesterday'', her eyes twinkle when she says ''I always miss you when you're not with me'', I've never been great with words so Instead I place a soft kiss on her cheek. Her face instantly reddens and she nuzzles herself into the crook of my neck to hide her embarrassment. 

We head into the arena and she looks at me worriedly, ''are you nervous about the game?'' God she's adorable. ''Of course I am, I always am but I'm the captain and I need to be strong for the rest of my team.'' she nods in understanding.

We spend the rest of the hour talking while she tells me how much she'll miss me while I'm away next week. Just as I'm about to respond I get interrupted by my team walking in. It's time to get ready for the game, the stadium is already starting to fill up and it's time for me to follow my team. Just as I'm about to leave for the game Sophia tugs my shirt and murmurs ''good luck'' I smile and thank her by placing another soft kiss on her rosy cheek.
