Today was Friday, the day I was going to take Lexie out for dinner. I had been constantly thinking about it since I asked her out three days ago. Even if I didn't want it to be this way, I knew I had a day full of plans before I get to go see the girl thats been on my mind recently. Elias and I always have morning practices on Fridays, as well as designated time to go through game highlights with the team.
"Hey Petey, you're on your own tonight I have plans" I said as I walked into the kitchen, grabbing some cereal.
"Okay cool, what are these plans" he asked me.
"Secret" I said, trying to keep it lowkey. My response made Elias give me a questioning look, but he dropped it quickly. We both ate our food before grabbing our stuff and heading out to practice.
The Rink
When we got to the rink we met up with Boeser before going inside. We walked down the hallway into the locker room and got changed into our gear and practice jerseys, while talking about the upcoming game we had against the panthers. Todays practice was doing lots of drills as well as focusing on the puck in the d-zone.
After practice we hit the showers before going into the media room and waiting for coach to come in. We went through a bunch of old tapes looking at different ways to improve our game, as well as watching some panthers tapes and studying their game to make sure we beat them. We finished up the tapes and went back to the locker room to grab our stuff before leaving.
As I was walking out of the locker room I ran into Lexie as she was carrying some papers, dropping them everywhere.
"Shit I'm sorry" she said trying to grab the papers off of the floor.
"Don't worry about Lexie" I said to her, helping her pick them back up.
"We really have to stop running into each other like this" she said to me smiling.
"I don't mind it" I said, handing her the rest of the papers.
Lexie laughed and started to walk away, before turning around and looking over her shoulder. "I'll see you at 7" She said winking.
When I walked down the hall Elias ran up beside me. "Who was that hottie" he asked.
"No clue" I answered.
Elias and Quinns apartment
When we got back to the apartment I checked the time on my phone and saw it was 5pm. I decided to make a quick dinner for myself and Petey since it was my turn to cook tonight and being the gourmet chef I am I decided to make some fettuccini Alfredo with some garlic bread. One of my specialties, since it's so easy and delicious.
After dinner I went into my room to pick out an outfit, just a simple black tight crewneck and some dark blue jeans. I did my hair and decided not to shave since I have been told I look better with a beard. It was now 6:10 and I had to leave in around 35 minutes, so I sat on my phone for a bit scrolling through my twitter feed. A notification popped up saying that the devils had won their game against the bruins with 6-4 so I decided to text Jack in the groupchat to congratulate him.

quinn I take back what I said
I always forget how annoying the boys can be, I almost feel like an older brother to all of them and not just Jack. They have this new thing of sending me memes to myself which makes me so uncomfortable.
I turned off my phone and got ready to leave to go pick up Lexie from her apartment. I knew it was by the little cafe we met since I saw her come from the apartment across the street, so I decided to just drive there and hope for the best. I got into my car and drove to go get her, and for the first time I actually felt a bit nervous to see a girl.
I was 5 minutes early so I sent her a dm that I was here and waited of her to come down. As I was scrolling through ESPN I saw something catch the corner of my eye.
Lexie and Logan's apartment
Lexie walked out of her building wearing a short black skirt with a big blazer on top. She walked with such confidence radiating off of her, making her 10x more attractive then usual.
I got out of my car to go say hi and open the door for her, being the gentleman I was raised to be. She gave me a big smile as I came around the car and opened the door, giving me a kiss on the cheek before she got into my car. I had a strange feeling that this girl was going to be more than just a hookup.
