"Ry-Ty? You there hon?" Sasha's voice echos through my phone.

"Yea, I'm still here Sashy,"

"Where'd you-"

"Kelli and my dad are coming to my game tomorrow," My voice not going over a whisper.

"What? They can still come? You'd think they'd leave you alone! If ghosting not enough then I don't know what could be,"
Sasha spoke angrily, spooking me a bit.

"Sorry, they just aggravate me,"

"I know they do Sashy, I do have to get ready soon though. You'll be at the game right?" I asked her through my phone.

"Of course I will be Ry-Ty! I'll even were my Ry-Ty's biggest fan shirt!"

"No, you will not," I cackled listening to her go on about how 'she spent money on a shirt just for me for me to be embarrassed'

"Oh! Can I bring my team too? They're big fans of the magic number 8!" She laughed at her own words.

"Have one of them wear your shirt!" I suggested to her.

"No. That shirt is mine and only mine," She voices with a hint of sarcasm.

"Fine, but I really have to go now Sashy. I love you and I'll see you tonight!"

"Love you too goofball. I'll cheer extra hard for you tonight!" and with that, I hung up.



I pull up to the arena and walk in through the front doors. The main lobby was quiet...to quiet. I shook it off, put my headphones back on and continued my walk. Jamming and walking to a game is the way to go-

"BOO!"

"AHH MOTHERFUCKER," I screamed and saw the UConn hockey admin with a camera.

"Delete that," I laughed while continuing my walk to the locker room.

"They scare you too Larry?" One of my teammates, Hailey asked me while I tossed my stuff in my cubby.

"Yea! Whose idea was that?" I chucked with Hailey who just shrugged.

"Probably Kevin," she replied.

Everyone loves Kevin. He's the head of the admin team for our hockey program.

"Got anyone special coming today Larry?" Another one of my teammates, Fabien asked me.

My life was a huge mystery to my team and much of the school. Yes, I was known as the school darling but that was because of my kindness and charisma on the ladies. I have never dated anyone nor have I talked to anyone. But the hard part is, I don't wanna be single but then again, I don't want to date just anyone, I wanna find someone who will love me for me...all, of me.
