Newark, New Jersey
Y/n's pov:

   It was my first day as the social media manager for the New Jersey Devils. I've been a Devils fan since I was 6. My dad and I would sit in our living room and watch every game. He even got us matching jerseys for Christmas one year, I wore it for every game. We could only afford to see one game when I turned 14, it was when they played against the Rangers. My dad and I sat 5 rows from the Devils bench and we watched the entire game, even when it went to overtime. So when I got the call that they picked me for the job I was excited, I called my dad that same day and told him the news. He was in Calgary when I called and he offered to fly out to see me but I said it was fine, id see him when he gets back. After talking about it more he congratulated me again and hung up.
   Now here I am, on my way to the Prudential Center. It's was a Tuesday morning so there wasn't any traffic at all. I got there and parked near the entrance, I looked at the car I parked next to and saw it was a nice looking car. Walking in, I saw it was exactly how I remembered it. Huge and cold yet warm at the same time, like a welcoming type of warm, a homey warm. "Hi! You must be y/n?" I turned around and saw a lady in her 40's smiling at me with a folder in hand. "Oh hi yes, I'm y/n!" I shook her hand and smiled. "Sorry I was just looking again, I came here a couple years ago but it's exactly how I remembered it." She smiled and motioned to follow her. "Ok so your job isn't so hard, you just have to get good shots for the instagram, facebook, twitter and tiktok accounts. Also posting videos and you'll be Interviewing players as well. You'll get paid extra per interview you do since we had to fire the last guy, he took the privilege of being close to his favorite team for granted."
   I shook my head and smiled. "Don't worry I won't do that, I love hockey that's why I took this job." She nodded and continued the tour before showing me my office. "Here's your own personal space, and there's the phone you'll use to post everything! If there's anything else you need I'm next door, I'm Allison. Well it's great to have you here!" I smiled and thanked her as she closed the door behind her, I sat down and turned on the computer to see my schedule for this week. "Double Hughes interview, hmm." I saw that I had to take pictures at practice today in an hour so I set up the phone and logged into all the accounts. I took it and toured the arena before getting to the bench waiting for the players to come out.
   "Your new huh?" I looked up to see Luke Hughes looking back at me. "Um yeah, today's my first day. Y/n, Y/n L/n." I held my hand out and Luke shook it with his glove on. "Nice to meet you y/n. I'm Luke." I nodded and smiled. "Yeah I know who you are, everyone does." He chuckled and put his helmet on. "Get my good side!" He yelled as he skated away to join the rest of the team. I smiled and took a picture of them talking and then of Mercer puck handling. Eventually I got 35 photos to choose from so I stopped taking pictures and checked them instead. I went through all of them and posted 5 different pictures for each account. On one of the pictures I saw that Luke was looking directly into the camera and smiling.
   I got up and went back to my office. Grabbed all my stuff, keys included and walked to my car. When I was walking towards it the car next to it beeped and I turned around to see Luke smiling at me. "Hey photographer, how'd my good side look?" I smiled and unlocked my car. "You can check for yourself, the pictures are posted." I got in and rolled the window down. "Your left side isn't the best." I teased him and pulled out of the parking spot. "See you tomorrow Hughes." From my rear view mirror, I can see him smiling as he got into his car. On the way home I called my dad and we talked all about how it went and the whole Luke thing. "You should definitely fly back out here! You can stay with me and I'll take you to next weeks game!" I said goodbye to my dad after I pulled into my driveway. We hung up and I was already walking into my house when I saw someone call out to me.
"Oh um hi." I turned around and saw some guy walking towards me. "Um I'm your neighbor to the right and I saw that your car is dented in the left rear. Just thought I'd tell you, my brother owns a mechanic shop just around the corner just tell him Joe sent you." I walked over to my car and saw the huge dent in the back. "Fuck ok thank you so much!" He smiled and walked back to his house and I just sighed. "Why?" I just shook my head and unlocked the door. Took my jacket off and headed towards my room. I was going to walk in the shower when my phone rang. "Hello?" "Hey Y/n right?" I stood in my room, confused and wrapped in a towel. "I'm sorry who's this?" "Oh it's Luke, I got your number from work." "Oh ok maybe start with name first before anything else, you scared me for a sec."
   We stayed in the phone for a while just talking about anything and everything. It was 11pm now and we had to hang up because of work. I had an interview earlier tomorrow morning so I didn't want to stay up too late. "Night Luke." "Goodnight Y/n." I finally took my shower and then immediately hit my bed, falling asleep quickly after. My alarm went off and I turned it off, trying to get up. I had to do my hair and makeup since I away interviewing players and I'd be recorded. I did loose curls and light makeup before putting on my Devils jersey and leggings underneath with black heels. I was out the door and in my car, ready and on my way to work. The job isn't so bad and I actually enjoy doing it. Seeing the guys smile and see how funny I actually am is nice, makes me feel extra welcomed. Clicking my badge against the door I was met with the coach waiting outside my office.
   "Good morning coach, how can I help you?" I unlocked my office and let him in. He sat down in a chair and sighed, looking at me with a look that actually scared me. "L/n, what are you doing?" I looked at him confused but also scared. "Um I um sorry sir but I don't understand what your asking me right now?" I sat in my chair and leaned back. "Hughes. He's been distracted ever since you got here and I want to know what's going on." I liked at him confused bc crossed my arms. "Which Hughes sir?" "Luke." "Nothing is going on between us, I barely know the guy!" A small chuckle releases from my lips and I just shake my head. Coach then gives me a stern look and gets up from the chair, walking to the door. "Well the guy knows you and he's obviously in love with you. Fix it L/n. We have a big game in 2 weeks and I need him giving it his best, no distractions." He walked out and I stood there confused.
"Ok so I'm going to ask you simple questions, look into the camera a couple times and that's it! Easy work today boys, promise." I smiled and sat in my chair next to Luke and Jack. The camera man waved his hand to motion he was recording so I turned and smiled into the camera. "Hello from the Prudential Center, I'm Y/n L/n and I'm here with." "Luke Hughes" "Jack Hughes" they looked back at me then at the camera. "I'm going to ask them some most frequently asked questions and get answers for you guys!" I looked down at my cards smiling and then at the boys. "This one is for Luke, do you remember how many goals you scored last season and which player did you finish 5th with for the most goals?" I looked up at Luke and he was already looking at me, smiling. "In fact, I scored 64 goals last season and I'm pretty sure it was Mercer?."
"64 is correct! It was not Mercer but Jack you actually tied with." Luke looked at Jack shocked and they laughed together. "Ok this question is for Jack, do you think your future is here in Jersey or are you ready to leave once your contract is up?" Jack stayed quiet for a bit then looked up at me and answered. "I'm not sure but I would love to stay here." I smiled and moved to the next question. After about 5 questions later, I closed the interview and the camera guy signaled that he stopped recording so I got up and gave both Luke and Jack a side hug, thanking them for actually doing the interview. "Thanks guys." "No problem, I'll do interviews from now on if it means your the interviewer." Luke winked at me and that's when I realized coach was right, he does like me. "Well I'd gladly interview you anytime." I winked back and he was taken back, lightly blushing.
I was in my office posting the video to every platform when someone knocked on the door. "Come in." I looked up to see Luke opening the door with a smile on his face. "Y/n, whatcha doing?" He sat down in the chair in front of me and signaled to my laptop. "Uploading the interview, what are youuu doing in my office? Need something Hughes?" He smirked and shook his head. "I just have a question." Luke moved from the chair to behind my chair, his hands on my shoulders. "What are you doing next Saturday?" "I-um nothing." His hands moved down my arms to my hands, holding them down to my legs. "Good." He was breathing down my neck and whispering in my ear. My breath stiffened and chills ran down my spine. "Be ready by 7." He pressed a small kiss on my neck and let go of me, backing away. "I'm taking you out so wear something fancy." He walked out of my office and I just stayed in the same position completely shocked.
   Three hours later, I was on my way home but more exhausted than yesterday. I got home quicker than usual thanks to no traffic today. So I took a quick shower and had pasta for dinner. My phone rang as I washed the dishes so I put it on speaker. "Hey dad." "Hi honey! How are you?" "Good, work has me exhausted but it does pay good." He laughed from the other side and I finished up the dishes. "That's good means you're working hard! Hey so your mom wants to know when you're coming over?" "I'm actually busy next Saturday night so how about Sunday?" "What are you doing Saturday?" I stayed quiet for a bit and smiled. "Um I have a date, so um is Sunday ok?" "Yeah Sunday is fine honey, see you then. I love you." "Ok dad, love you too." He hung up and I let it sink in, I'm going on a date with Luke Hughes and I just told my dad.
In bed, I turned my alarm on for tomorrow when I got a email from Allison. I opened it and saw she was asking if I could go in tomorrow early to do an interview with Luke. I sent her an email back saying that I'd do it and I'll see her tomorrow morning. I changed my alarm to 5am and charged my phone. Pulling the sheets over me, I started to drift off as I stared at the ceiling.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Mmm, what time is it?" I opened my eyes but jumped when I felt arms wrap around my waist. Who the fuck? I thought to myself as I turned around and saw Luke smiling at me. "Morning beautiful. How'd you sleep?" He was still smiling, moving my hair from my face. "Good and you?" I laid back down and moved closer to him. "Amazing, better since I slept next to you." He winked and I just giggled, kissing his cheek. He shook his head and put a hand behind my neck, pulling me into a kiss. I kissed him back and he positioned me on top of him, straddling his lap. We pulled away to take a quick breath before I leaned down and kissed him again. "You look so beautiful when you're on top of me." I kissed down his neck and grinding my hips on his, getting groans from him. His grip on my waist tightened and he leaned his head back, giving me more room to leave hickeys on his neck. "Fuck, good girl. Yeah? Just like that." His eyes rolled back and I sped up my motion, getting more of a reaction from him.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Just then my alarm goes off and I immediately woke up all sweaty and hot. I got up and went to the bathroom to get ready for the day when the entire time my mind would drift off to my dream. It was the only thing on my mind all morning. Even on the way to work, I was thinking of him and how he would look under me. When I got to work, I walked in and sped to my office hoping I don't run into Luke today because of how awkward that would be. I mean I just dreamt of the guy but a wet dream. Logging into my computer I checked my schedule for today when I saw Allison assigned me the Luke interview she told me about last night. And I had to take it since she wasn't coming to work today. "Dammit!" I slammed my laptop shut and just took a deep breath.
"L/n?" The camera guy was knocking on my door asking if I was going to cover the interview today since the setup was ready. "Yeah I'm sorry give me 3 minutes and I'll be out there." The guy nodded and said I had time since he had to run to his car to get another lens for the camera. He closed my door and I looked at the tiny mirror in my bag, fixing my hair and makeup. I walked to the ice and took deep breaths, hoping to get the interview over with as fast as I can. "Hey beautiful, your interviewing me today?" Luke skated to the bench and winked at me. When he called me beautiful my mind immediately went to my dream and I started blushing. "Yeah I am." I looked away and took another deep breath. "So it'll be quick, I just need a clip or two of you shooting pucks and skating and answering a couple questions then you're free." He nods and reached his hand out to help me onto the ice. "Thanks."
I step onto the ice and almost immediately slip. Luke caught me before I could actually hit the ice and he helped me up, his hands having a tight grip on my waist. "Careful, steady." I slowly walked toward center ice and stood there with Luke waiting for the camera guy. "There you go, good girl. You got it." I looked at him smiling and then my face went red again after hearing him say good girl. My mind went to the dream again and I couldn't stop blushing. "Did I say something?" I shook my head and saw the camera guy walking to the camera, then grabbing it and walking a bit towards us onto center ice. "And action!" I looked at the camera and smiled. "Hello from the prudential center, I'm here on center ice with Luke Hughes. Luke I have a few questions and challenges for you, are you up for them?" "Yup!" The camera guy then stopped recording and moved a bit to the left. I slowly waddled to the left and got into the view again. "Ok first question, how many assists did you have last year?" He looked at me then at the ice and back up to me. "I'm gonna say 30?" "Close! You had 35 assists, tying with your brother Quinn actually."
"Thanks for being here on your day off." I was going in for a side hug but he pulled me into a hug. I was taken back but hugged him back. "Told you I'd always be here if you were interviewing me." He winked at me again and leaned in closer to me. The camera guy left a while ago since I took me a while to walk back to the bench. "I-um Luke." His hands gripped my waist and he pulled me closer to him. "Yes beautiful?" "Kiss me already." "Gladly." He smirked and pulled me into a kiss. My hands went up to his hair and I ran my fingers through it. The kiss was short but meaningful. "I've been wanting to do that." He leaned his forehead against mine. "Me too." I chuckled a bit and then looked at him, smiling. "I dreamed of us, of this." My hand went to his cheek and caressed it softly. "I was dreaming of you, of us too." He smiled and kissed me again.
