(A/N: This oneshot was requested by evanschiff. I hope you like it! The song in the title is a reference to the song of the same name by Bonnie Tyler. Now, on with the oneshot!)





It was the final game. USA versus Iceland. But we were more than just Team USA. We were The Ducks. With our new jerseys on, we all made our way out of the locker room. The crowd was cheering us on as we got on the ice. I skated into position and the game was on.

There was a time out and, as usual, an Iceland player skated over to me to try and corner me and intimidate me. I had to say, it was starting to work as they sent their biggest player over to get in my face.

"What's the matter, Ducky? Getting scared?" The big goon said, laughing in my face.

I tried to ignore him and skate around him but he cornered me against the side. I was looking for a way out when I heard someone skate up to us.

"Hey, Iceland. Is cornering them the only way you can get them to talk to you? That's just sad, man!"

It was Averman. I cracked a smile as the goon from Iceland quickly turned to look at him.

"What'd you say?" The Iceland player said.

"I'm just saying that it's pretty sad that you need to intimidate someone into talking to you. What's the matter? Having trouble making friends?" Averman continued, skating around the player in a circle.

"Shut it, funny man!" Iceland said, forgetting about me and heading towards Averman.

"Hey, I'm just saying! It's nothing to be ashamed of. I'll be your friend if you want. We can get matching friendship bracelets and everything." Averman said, a mocking smile on his face.

I couldn't help but laugh at Les's comments. The Iceland player turned back to me, a look of rage on his face, before he set his sights back on Les.

"I said shut it!" The Iceland player screamed. He pushed Averman, causing him to fall and his helmet to get knocked off.

Before things could escalate further, the referee came skating over and grabbed the Iceland player and dragged him to the penalty box for unsportsmanlike conduct. I looked down at Averman who had a satisfied smile on his face.

"Thanks, Les." I said as I kneeled down next to him. I lifted up my own helmet and gave him a quick kiss on the lips. As I pulled away, I saw a starstruck expression find its way on to Averman's face.

"Wow." He said, sitting up on his elbows. "Any chance we could try that again? I wasn't ready."

I rolled my eyes but laughed all the same. I leaned down to give him another kiss.

"AVERMAN! Y/L/N! STOP SMOOCHING AND GET BACK IN THE GAME!"

The two of us jumped apart as we heard Bombay's voice from across the rink. I quickly helped Les stand up and we put our helmets back on. We had a game to play.





(A/N: Thanks again to evanschiff for the request! Sorry it took so long and is a little short. I'm still getting back in my writing groove. Requests are open so send yours in if you have them! That's all for now! Until next time! Thanks!!)
