"Hey..." I say as I open the door to our house. "Abby, are you here?"
     Abby comes out of her room, shutting the door behind her.
     "Yeah, Jacob is taking a nap, so we can talk." She says as she sits on the couch and crosses her legs.
     I follow her to the couch and sit down next to her, on the end. I turn my body so my back is leaning against the back of the chair and I was facing her. "Talk about what?" I question her.
     "Well we can start off by where you were. I had no idea where you went Mads, I didn't know if you were kidnapped or what!" She says smacking my leg.
     "No I didn't get kidnapped, you're so weird and worry too much." I say laughing and rolling my eyes.
"Okay good but where were you though, for real."
I won't tell her the details but I still think I should at least tell her where I was.
"Oh uhm, I was at Ryan's house, no big deal." I say trying to brush it off.
"Wait seriously?!" She says to me, her voice going a little higher.
"Yeah.... He was at the restaurant the other day, and offered to take me back..." I say, but still not looking into her eyes.
"Ohhhh, okay!" She says as she jumps up from the couch. "Want a coffee?" She asks me.
"Sureeeeee." I say as I pull out my phone and scroll through Twitter.
I didn't think I would ever bring up the whole, sex with Ryan at a park thing. She wouldn't have asked about it anyway, so I'll just pretend like it never happened.
Abby comes back with the coffee, and I sit there just watching tv wrapped up in a blanket. All I could think about was him. Was he using me? I've only known him for a couple days now, and we've already had sex? There's something odd about this. It just doesn't feel right. As much as it does, it just has a weird kind of vibe I guess. Does he actually have feelings for me, or is it just a lie? I didn't really want to find out.
With all of these thoughts coming to my head, I find myself asleep on the couch.

I woke up, with my phone in my hand, as I turn to face the back of the couch. I put my phone up to my face and click the home button. 9:17. I guess I'll get up now instead of being up the whole night.
I sit up, and look over at the kitchen. Abby and Jacob are there eating pizza. I yawn, gaining their attention.
"Oh would you look who's up?!" Abby says after a swallowing a piece of the pizza.
I stand up and make my way over to them, taking a piece out of the box and taking a bite. "Mmmm" I say after swallowing it. "This is delicious. What's the occasion?"
"Oh some of the boys are coming over later, we just thought we'd order some pizza for us, and then they can order whatever later I guess." Jacob says taking a napkin to make sure there isn't anything on his face.
"Wait, as in other icecaps players?" I question him.
"Yeah. 3 of them flew in today, and I asked Jacob if they wanted to come over here for a little bit tonight." Abby says, answering the question for him.
"Oh.... Guess I'll be leaving then!" I say as I try to go to my room, but Abby grabs my arm.
"NOOO Mads please stay. I don't wanna be the only girl!" She pleads.
"Fine. On one condition." I say putting my pointer finger in her face.
"Sure, anything!" She says to me, looking relieved.
"Some of the bsens come over." I say putting my chin in the air.
Abby looks to Jacob, to ask for his approval since they aren't on the same team.
"Sounds good to me. It's not the game, so we can forget about hockey for tonight." Jacob says.
"Perfect!" I say jumping up and down. I make my way to my room to call Ryan. I forgot he gave me his phone number on Friday.
I dial his number, and he answers within seconds.
"Hello Maddie, you just couldn't get enough of me could you?" He asks, and I can hear the smirk. I know that's not possible I just know that he's smirking.
"Ha ha ha very funny." I say, smiling. It's a good thing he can't see that. "But I have a favour for you... Well, more like a question I guess." I say flopping down on my bed.
"Oh yeah, and what's that?" He asks me with a sly tone to his voice.
"I need you to come over." I quickly say.
"Why? So we can have round 2?" He says, and I know for a fact he's smirking again.
"No you idiot. Abby and Jacob are here and 3 of the other icecaps players are coming here tonight, and I need you and 3 others to come. Badly. So I'm not alone. Just please. I'm begging. Don't even think about hockey tonight lets just all be friends! Please say yes. Please please please." I plead to him, babbling on.
"Fine... Only for you." He says to me.
"Thanks!! I feel special!! See you later!" I say as I hang up the phone.
Thank god, someone is here to save me.
I walk out of my room to tell Abby that him and his friends are coming as the door knocks. Great.
Abby gets the door, and in walks Nikita Scherbak, Ryan Johnston, and Joel Hanley.
Jacob goes to greet them all, as Abby comes over to me.
"They coming?" Abby asks me, turning back to look at the boys.
"Yeah" I say to her smiling. "They'll be here soon."
"Yay!!" She says giving me a hug. "Let's just hope it's not a problem to the other boys...." She says looking at me nervously.
I wonder how this night will end....
