The Game

I woke up early as I could as I knew this was Aprils big game. This was the championships, she was going up against some brutal people and it doesn't help that girls are scary when they becoming intimidating, also ice hockey is one of the most intimidating sports.

I quickly hoped out of bed noticing it was 9:00 am and her game starts at 10. I got dressed as fast as I could in; black jeans, a grey long sleeved shirt and, my solid black vans. Once I was dressedI rushed down the stairs jumped down the last one making a loud bang scaring Ben

"Nate!" Ben yelled as he jumped 3 feet in the air

"You freaking jumped so high up are you okay?" I said laughing at him

"Shut up Nate, Dad! Nate's laughing at me" He whined

"Ben quit whining and get dressed for Aprils game, Nate stop laughing at your brother" I heard Dad yell slightly laughing from the kitchen

"You ready to see the bears be crowned state champions?" Dad asked while hi fiving me 

"Hell yeah! They're going to smash it!" I replied getting pumped up for the game

"Hey toast is up" Dad replied giving me the toast he made for me

"Thank you" I said putting honey on the slices of bread

Soon Ben came running in wearing his Bears jersey and attacked dads leg hanging off it like a monkey

"Ready to go see the Bears, Daddy!" Ben squealed in delight when dad lifted his leg and walked around

"Finished" I shouted as I shoved the last bit of honey covered toast in my mouth

"Alright let's go see the Bears!" Dad said enthusiastically

In case you hadn't noticed. April's family and mine are really close, really close. We come see all of April's ice hockey games and they come see all of my soccer games. We have dinners with them and everything. In fact we're so close that Dad and April's mum; Belle, dated at one point. I quickly realized that if those two got married then me and April would be brother and sister and I wanted to date April so I sabotaged the hell out of their dates and it worked. They realized their differences and decided to not make a fuss about it, resulting in the closeness of our families today.

We all packed up our stuff and I grabbed my bears jersey hanging over the stool as we walked out the door

When we were headed to the hallway dad decided to start a chant

"Bears, Bears, Bears, Bears!" He started chanting

"Bears, Bears, Bears, Bears!" I joined in with him

Soon I picked up Ben who had let go of Dads leg a while ago and was walking with us. I quickly pulled him up onto my back and Dad and I started jogging towards the car still chanting 'Bears' 

When we all got in the car and Ben was strapped in me and dad looked to each other holding out a chant for as long as we could. When we couldn't hold our breath anymore we dropped the chant and took a deep breath in as we heard Ben yell in delight "Bears!"

We started the engine and headed off to the ice skating rink where the game is held

We soon pulled up at this big stadium and went inside to which we all grew goosebumps almost immediately 

Once we had paid our fare to watch we game we walked into the main part of the stadium where I saw April and her team on the side closest to us doing her drills. 

She was an excellent shooter and almost got every single one in. Once she had done shooting she then did laps around her side of the rink, when she had done a couple of those her coach allowed to to go get a drink and chill out
