"Hurry up, Jo, its fucking freezing out here!" A voice called. Groaning, I saw my sisters face way too close to the camera. Her eyes looked like a bug. They were so wide. Stomping her feet to keep warm, I sighed, unlocking the door, opening it wide for her to scurry through.

"You know you have a key, right?" I mumbled closing the door, the cold air shivering me. It's been a couple of days since Colby left to go to the gym. Colby didn't get home until late, so I told him it would be better to see him again refreshed. He had some fitness tests this morning and they ran till mid afternoon, by then he was exhausted. His rest was important. The sun was setting now, and I haven't heard from him, other than some texts we exchanged. My body ached for him soon as the door closed.

"Yeah well, personal privacy is important. Especially when you're seeing someone." Scarlett wagged her eyebrow at me. "Have you finally met him? Is he what you expected?"

Breathing out, my cheeks puffed and got red. Scarlett gasped squealing. She pulled me to the couch, gripping my forearm.

"About fucking time, Jo! Jesus you've been talking about him non stop the past couple of weeks! Tell me everything and don't you dare leave out anything." Scarlett's smile was wide, and excited for me. She had been telling me for weeks to stop 'being a big ass baby and score with the hockey player.'

"I'll spill but you have to give me back my arm first. You're cutting off circulation, I think." Wincing, I darted my eyes to my right arm, both her hands collapsed around my forearm, beginning to turn pink. Scarlet let go of me after, mumbling an apology.

I sighed, and let my mouth do the talking. My lips didn't stop and let everything out to her. Every now and then she'd interrupt and ask me questions about things Colby did and how I felt about it. I would answer her honestly. I didn't have anything to hide when it came to Scar. I told her that he came to pick me up and she cooed, her eyelashes batting rapidly. I told her where we went to eat even though she's never heard of the place. I let her in on everything. We spent a good two hours talking.

Everything.

I mentioned we had slept together and she screamed. I slapped my hands over my ears and glared at her till she stopped.

"Oh my god, Jo! You scored on the hockey player! Oh, my baby sister is finally blooming." She fake cried wiping her fake tears, I laughed.

"He's really something, Scar. I still have my hunches, but he's such a genuine person. Like I really don't know what else to say about him. He's so sweet, and generous, and he was cautious The whole time we were making out and it got hot, he kept asking me if I was sure, if I was okay. If things felt right or wrong. He's just... different..." I trailed off. And I felt her eyes burning a hole in the side of my face and I didn't want to look at her.

"I sense a but coming." Scarlett pursed her lips and leaned on the back of the couch clutching a throw pillow.

"But, I'm still skeptical. I'm always overthinking. Like yes he is super fucking sweet and driven, and hot and respectful, and all of that is really really amazing. It is! But I still feel like something is going to happen, and it's going to fall apart and ruin everything we've established. I mean, he's trying to go pro, Scar. He's trying to be a pro hockey player and I don't know if I would be able to handle that when he's away for games. He's already preparing for these fitness tests he has to take. Some shit about making sure his body is in enough shape for this.

" Or when he has hundreds of girls coming for him because of who he is. Like when we were at dinner, there were few people in the restaurant, but the women kept stealing glances at him, and it was kind of pissing me off." My rant over, I groaned, and leaned on the arm of the couch, rubbing my temples.
