elodies point of view

hearing the blare of my 5:30 alarm, i rub my eyes as they adjust to the dark atmosphere of my bedroom. flipping my comforter up while i slug my way out of my warm bed and into the bathroom between jamie and i's rooms. while i brush my teeth i hear a knock on the door. shuffling to open it, i see a tired eyed jamie drysdale with nothing but a pair of grey sweatpants on. what a slut.

"good morning early bird" he smirks "just hoping to brush my teeth" i move over to the side to let him in as i continue my usual routine

"what with the early wake up call? don't you start at 8?"

"i have miles to run. why are you up so early?" i side eye him in the mirror

with the toothbrush still in his mouth he responds "we got some shit ass training season before morning skate coach thought we needed" he rolls his eyes before returning to brushing his teeth

"oh right, well have fun with that" i say whims exiting the bathroom. as i'm almost out the door jamie's hands grab my waist, leading me to be back in the bathroom again.

"not so fast smokeshow. we've gotta get you ready for your big day. what do you need a good luck kiss, chocolate chip pancakes?"

"i'll pass on the pancakes but i might need a good luck kiss"

"hm no kiss before breakfast. my girls gotta eat before her big day"
jamie kisses me cheek before we both walk out of the bathroom. i give him a faint frown and a 'fine' as we walk into the kitchen

"okay what are we thinking, eggs? toast? oatmeal?" jamie spits out breakfast recommendations while looking in the fridge

"protein shake, fruit?" i suggest knowing that's not the answer he doesn't want to hear

"ellie" he looks over at me

"what? i don't want to look bloated on my first day" i sigh

"okay.. how about we compromise. fruit and protein oatmeal?"

"and a kiss?" i smile brightly

"if you eat at least a third of your breakfast"

"okay" i say turning my smile to defeat

while jamie chefs up in the kitchen i get dressed for my run, throwing on some alo sports bra and a pair of shorts i found in my closet. sliding my hokas on and taking one last look in the mirror, sighing.

sitting down with the food in front of me, my stomach churns. making me nauseous looking at the calorie filled oatmeal. my head screaming at me. alarms going off. i resort to the one thing that works best to avoid consuming this dangerous bowl of gross. talk.

"do you have any thing else today besides your work out? also do you know where trev is? i didn't hear him come home last night" i look at jamie as he sits down next to me

"he stayed at masons i think. and we have practice later" he says before shoving a spoonful of his breakfast into his mouth

"oh yeah i think he mentioned that to me. are you excited to play the kraken tomorrow? i'm excited to be there for the game" i continue rambling

"yeah it'll be fun i think. i'm excited to see you on the bench" he smiles over at me, before glancing down at my uneaten oatmeal

"yeah i'm kind of nervous, i'm supposed to be getting some cute ducks apparel for game day. i hope it's actually cute i don't want to have to wear someth-" i didn't even get to finish before jamie interrupts me

"ellie baby look at me" he says, causing me to look up at him
"i love hearing you talk but you need to eat your breakfast"

i look back into his eyes before he grabs my spoon, scooping a bite of oatmeal and placing it in my hand. then spooning his own

"three.. two.. one" he says before we both take a bite. before i knew it half of my oatmeal was gone. looking back up at jamie he smiles

"look at you ellie!" he says smiling ear to ear

hey friends it has been a while. i took quite the un expected hiatus but we are back baby! hope you all had a wonderful thanksgiving full of love and yummy food❤️‍🔥
