Fake It Till You Make It || Tom Wilson

Epilogue

One Year Later
Wilson's POV
The Capitals have made it to the Stanley Cup Championship Game once again. The team convinced me that proposing to Kasey after the game is over is the best proposal to her.

We're playing the Los Angeles Kings and we're in the last quarter of the game. Our teams are tied up, 3-3. We need one more goal to win this game and there's only a minute left. If we don't get a goal, we'll go into overtime.

Oshie has the puck and he's skating down the ice. He passes it to Ovechkin and Ovi attempts to score.

Surprisingly, he misses and I skate over to intercept the puck before the other team can. I hit the puck and it sails through the air, just missing the goalie's glove and falls right into the net with only ten seconds in the quarter to spare.

Every single Caps fan in the arena is cheering and my team skates over to me. I got the game winning goal that wins us the Stanley Cup.

Kasey skates over to me to congratulate me and Oshie sneaks the ring box into my hand. I hold my hand behind my back as Kasey skates up to me and kisses me on the lips.

"You did it Willy. The Caps won the Stanley Cup because of you," she says. I smile.

"I know,"

Kasey skates backwards a bit and I kneel down on the ice, revealing the ring box to Kasey. Kasey places her hands on her face and I can see tears starting to form on her cheeks.

Kasey's POV
Happy tears start to form on my cheeks as Tom opens the ring box to reveal a beautiful diamond engagement ring.

"Kasey Elizabeth Norton, will you marry me?" Tom asks. I nod.

"Yes," I reply excitedly. Tom smiles and takes off one of his hockey gloves so he can take the ring out of the box and carefully put it on my finger.

I jump into Tom's arms, barely believing that this moment is real.

The team congratulates me and then Ovi skates over with the Stanley Cup in hand. He gives it to Tom and smiles.

"Here you go, Willy. You're the reason we won this game tonight," he says. Tom takes the Stanley Cup and begins skating around the ice rink. The fans all cheer as he shows off the Cup to them.

When Tom's finally done showboating, the team gathers together to take a picture of themselves with the Stanley Cup. Tom's in the front with Ovi and he has a big smile on his face just like he did when the Caps won the Cup in 2018.

When they're done taking pictures, Tom skates over to me and takes my hand.

"Ready to go, sweetie?"

"Of course I am, Willy."

It's official. I'm going to be spending the rest of my life with the Tom Wilson. The right winger, fighter, and two time Stanley Cup winner for the Washington Capitals. Oh, and let's not forget that he's the sweetest and most attractive guy I've ever had the pleasure to date.

I'm the luckiest girl alive.
