Italian Obsession

Chapter 111

Callie

After four hours, my phone rang. "Hello?"

"Thank god you actually answered. I can understand why you're mad at me, but I just didn't know how to tell you."

"You told her, but you didn't even tell your own sister. Like what the hell, Maverick?"

"I know, but I just hope that you don't hold a grudge over me."

"I'm not, but I am just upset that you didn't even tell me."

"I know, I'm sorry Callie. Is Mya there?"

"Yeah."

"Is her phone dead or something? I tried to text her, but it didn't go through."

"Maybe, but I am going to bed, good luck this weekend."

"Thanks, sis."

I hung up and looked at Mya. "Maverick said he texted you but all of his messages didn't deliver."

Mya shrugged. "And?"

"Did you block him?"

"Maybe he will cheat on me."

I glared at Mya. "Are you trying to piss me off again?"

"What do you mean?"

"I told you that he wouldn't cheat on you."

"We shall see."

Maverick

Later that night, we went out to get some drinks after the game when a group of girls approached Cam and me. "Hi."

"Hey."

"I'm Carcia. What's your name?"

"Maverick."

"You're hot but I expected nothing less from an Italian man."

"Thanks."

"Are you single?"

"I'm not."

"Oh, that's a shame. Do you live here or?"

"No, we're heading back home tomorrow."

"Aww, that's too bad."

"I don't know you, so..."

She smiled and sat next to me. "I can change that."

"I... I'm sorry, but I have a girlfriend and I don't cheat."

"Oh, come on."

"Look, Carcia. You are beautiful, but I have a girlfriend and I am sure you could get any guy that you want. I'm just not that guy."

She shrugged. "Your loss."

"I'm sorry, I don't cheat."

"That's pretty shocking."

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"Come on, every hockey player I've met has slept with me regardless of having a girlfriend or not."

"Well, I'm not one of them."

"You're missing out on some fun."

"Not really."

It was around 1:30 when we left the bar. "Coach will be pissed if we sleep in. Especially since our flight is at 6."

"I hope Mya won't ignore me when I get back."

"I am so glad that I don't have a girlfriend to worry about all that bullshit."

"Tell me about it. On top of that, there's something I want to get her for her birthday."

"What's that?"

"Her birthday is not for a few more months but I've been looking at this."

Cam looked at the Neil Lane diamond ring on my phone screen and raised his eyebrows. "When's her birthday?"

"The end of May."

"You're seriously thinking about buying her an engagement ring for your six-month anniversary?"

"There's something about her, Cam. She's someone who I can trust with anything and ever since I met her, I knew that she would be the one."

Cam rolled his eyes. "Well, the ring definitely is stunning and I'm sure she would love it."

"My sister will probably kill me once she finds out."

"Probably."

I knew Callie would be pissed, but it's something that I want.
