Heart of Stone

Coach trained us early and treated us like shit before the game started. I'm super sore and still have to play.

After the first period of the game ended I went to the bench to get water I took my helmet off and wiped my sweat with my jersey.

I looked up and saw Lyss gawking at me, I decided to tease her and give her a wink and drink my water.

I looked at Mira who was just staring off into space and then looked at Izzy. I saw her on her phone, I'm guessing recording and zooming in on someone.

That's until I realized that someone is me. I narrowed my eyes at her and turned around to get ready for the second period of the game.

We got into positions and when the coach blew the whistle I went zooming for that puck.

I passed the puck to Noah who passed it to the goalie which the goalie missed. We now have seven points.

I heard cheering from my side of the arena and saw the three particular girls cheering.

Izzy, Mira, and...Chica

The goalie for the other team kicked the puck to us and we re-started.

This time the other team had the puck and tried passing it to one of their teammates but thankfully when the did out goalie, Cameron blocked it.

He pushed the puck back to us and it was right where Conrad easily passed the puck to Shawn who passed it to Noah who passed it to the closest person near him, me.

Before the puck even went into the goal, I already heard cheers and screams.

I quickly with my hockey stick pushed the puck into the goal right in-between the goalies legs.

The crowd went wild, I heard a few claps, cheers and some girls yell. 'That's him!' Or some nasty shit like. 'That's my man!'

I don't know, trying to tell some flirtatious things at me.

I also heard a girl yell, 'call me! My number is *********'

The numbers they yelled were blurry.

But we now had: 8-4 points.

The period ended and when I went up to. Shawn and Conrad who were talking. Noah was talking to our goalie Cameron.

Just as I was about to say something, the other team captain came up to me, mad.

"Oh hey Derek" I said putting my water in my mouth.

"Stay away from her" He says sternly pointing his crooked finger in my face.

"Stay away from who?" I asked setting down the water.

"Alyssah. That's who. I've seen you two. The way she looks at you. And the way you winked at her and her face turned red" I said putting his finger down and nodding towards her.

Hold up hold up hold up...

Did he say...
