Icebreaker (1) -Charlie Conway

The Hawks

Lyla Mitchell's POV

"The hawks lead 8-1 in the third period with Mitchell and banks speeding down the ice! Their as fast as lightning and aren't being stopped anytime soon." The announcer said as I take the puck down the ice. I feel the ice shredding under my skates as I approach the goal. With Adam by my side I made a fake and passed it to him, which he returns to me as a wide open net sits in front of me.

I quickly shoot it in and the sound of the Buzzer follows right after. We go to celebrate as I skate up to the goalie who was still trying to get up.

" maybe next time try not to leave the net wide open." I sneer as Larson and McGill chuckle behind me. The goalie turned red as I skated away.

We skate to the bench as coach Reilly praises me and Adam on our game. "Nice hat-trick banks! Way to go!" He turns to me, beaming. " as always way to show them up with those 5 goals Mitchy! But I think you could do better next game, correct?" I nod in agreement and smile at Adam.

I sigh and turn to Adam as we leave the locker room. " it must be tough having to lose against me every game. I wish I could say I know how you feel, but I don't." I say to him as I laugh loudly.

"Ok come on now, im sure I can beat you at our next game though." He said as we walked out of the rink.

"Right, of course." I laugh. "Who are we playing anyways?" I asked as we put our bags in my dads car.

"I think district 5?" He said as I chuckled. They were terrible. Especially that Charlie Conway. "Oh man this is gonna be sad. I predict 10 goals for me and 6 goals for you." I say smiling. he returned the smile. "Yeah sure, but I get extra points if I knock down Conway." He exclaims. I smile smugly at the thought of Charlie being squished in the boards. "Not if I do it first!" I say. "You're on!" He returns.

As we were driving through Minneapolis we go past the outdoor rink where I feel my lips turn up words. "Stop for a minute, dad!" I exclaim as I poke my head out the window, just in time to see Conway fall on his butt.

I laugh out loud causing them to look at me. Charlie rolled his eyes and looked away.

"Nice going spazway, you almost stood up for 5 seconds, your getting better!" I say, hearing Adam chuckle beside me as I laugh.

"Actually he was up for almost six second-"Averman tries to say before being shut up by Charlie. I smirk as he opens his dumb mouth.

"Be quite, Mitchell." He said in an annoyed voice and rolls his eyes. He always rolls his eyes.

"No can do, sucker! See you at our game tomorrow!" I yell as my dad drives off. I look back and see a dark car drive onto the frozen pond. What the hell? I wonder in my head as a man walks out. I quickly shrug it off and turn to Adam. We joked around and Adam and I laughed all the way to his house, which was two houses down from mine. As we got out I had a sudden idea.

"Adam wanna have a sleep over tonight?" I say as a take by bag out of the way for Adam's bag to get out. " yeah, of course! I'll go get my sleeping bag! Omg can we watch 10 things I hate about you please!?" Adam pleads. I of course say yes and we spent All night laughing and joking around.

"You know, I kind of look like Cameron." Adam says, smirking. I just laugh at him causing him to look confused.

" what, I do! And you look like Bianca!" He exclaims, getting defensive.

I choke on my root beer float and turn to look at him. "What are you implying, banksie?" I say he immediately realized what he said and looked down. "Omg that was so awkward I'm sorry!" He apologized.

" it's ok. I think it was pretty cute." I say. We turn to look at each other for a moment before we burst out laughing.

Me and Adam have been best friends since we first been on the hawks. Adam was a shy guy at first, but once my extravert self met him, we knew we would be friends for a long time. Since then, we have been inseparable and we act like siblings. Adam didn't have siblings but I have an older brother, Jackson, who also plays hockey and played for the hawks. Like me, he is also a child prodigy who got a full scholarship to a prestigious high school called Eden Hall. I hope to go there, too. He's a junior on the varsity team and made a couple friends on the team too. They sometimes come over to our house and they treat me like their own little sister. I don't mind it. I like following in his footsteps and I enjoy the attention given to me once people find out we are sibling's.

I lay my head back on Adam's lap as I prepare to go to sleep. "Good night, banksie." I say tiredly. "Night, squirt." He returns. I quickly drift off to sleep as I imagine my self scoring, beating up district 5 and slamming Charlie into the boards. Man, tomorrow is gonna be fun.
