Flyers Baby (NHL)

Chapter 5: Luck

I tied up my skates, stretching and then putting my hat on backwards. The ACC almost my second home, I could wander this place with my eyes closed. I sighed, then grabbed my stick walking to the ice.

"Clark." Lupul yelled across the ice.

I laughed, skating towards him and wrapping my arms around his neck.

"Damn girl, you look good." He smirked.

"Working out." I replied.

"I can tell, did you move back?" He asked.

"No, I'm here with the Flyers. I moved to Philly, needed a new start."

"I'm always here for you." He smiled, blue eyes looking into my brown ones.

"Thanks." I smiled, hugging him and skating away.

--

I got the puck once again, Luke swearing under his breath and skating in a circle.

"Hey, come on." I said.

The rink was empty, we were the only ones in the building and his face grew cold.

"What the hell am I doing wrong?" He asked.

"Luke, you can't keep doing this. You have to rest, there is a game tonight." I told him.

"Nat!" He yelled.

I cringed as he got closer, pressing me onto the boards his huge frame over powering my smaller one.

"Yes?"

"This is the only way I'm alone with you." He said quieter, his hands on either side of my body.

"You don't want to." I whispered.

"Yes I do, Natasha. I really like you ok?" He said, his thumb brushing my cheek bone.

"No you don't." I shook my head.

He pressed his lips to mine, his arms pulling me into his body.

"I want to know everything about you, I promise." He whispered. "Just give me a chance."

I nodded, his lips brushing mine once again before he skated to the bench and walked to the locker room.

My heart was in my throat and I couldn't think straight. I wanted this, but I was so scared of what he was going to think. I didn't have the cleanest record, but I learned from my mistakes.

--

I sat in the stands, the crowd slowly disappearing as their home team got smashed.

Mcginn scored, Brayden scored, as did Adam all within ten minutes. Now it was just down right ruthless, 10-0. The Leafs had no chance.

--

"Nice win." I smirked.

"It's cause we had our good luck charm." Tye smiled, kissing my cheek. "Welcome back."

"Get outta here Mcginn, you stink." I laughed.

"Awe come on babe, I know you like it." He laughed.

"So much I'm gonna die." I nodded, dodging him. "Tye get lost!"

I was jumping over gear, and guys with sharp skates. Tye was surprisingly quick although he had all his gear on.

"Luke!" I laughed, hiding behind him.

"Wimp." Tye shook his head.

I stuck my tongue out at him and he poked me, causing me to jump sideways onto Brayden.

"Hey there, nice shot tonight." I ruffled his messy hair.

"Like he said, good luck charm." He pecked my cheek as well.

"Ugh no more of that. All of you." I glared.

"Loser." Brayden shook his head.

I flicked him then pulled out my phone, swinging my legs and going through my Instagram and Twitter.

"Ok, you can get off me now." He said.

"Naw, you're comfy." I said.

"I'll kiss you again."

"Ack!" I said, getting up.

"That's not nice." He said.

"It's ok, you're my favourite." I reassured him.

"Mhm." He said, turning the full power of his blue gaze on me.

"Stop that." I said.

He didn't, only raised a brow.

"Stop."

I put my hands over face and hid myself behind the wall, escaping his piercing eyes.

"You can come out of hiding." Luke laughed.

"Control your brother." I whined, hiding behind him and peering over his shoulder.

I stuck out my tongue and Brayden flipped me off, walking out the door. I laughed being tugged by Luke. The hotel wasn't far and we walked easily to the hotel, instead I pulled him the other way.

"I know a few guys, I wanna bat." I smirked, walking into the RC.

--

I wolf whistled, a few guys turning to look at me.

"Natasha, what the hell?" JP laughed, throwing me over a shoulder.

"Look who showed up." Brett smirked.

"Boo, have an extra bat?" I asked, stretching out my arms.

Reyes tossed me one and I swung to get the feel, stepping up to the plate. I ripped one to the wall, another past it. Then I started placing them at certain spots among the diamond, the guys growing quiet. I stepped into the next one, throwing all my weight behind it and the ball flew.

"I've missed this." I said, flipping the bat.

"You haven't changed." Brett smiled.

"Can still beat you." I teased.

He smacked me with his glove, shaking his head.

"Your turn." I poked Luke with the bat.

"Nope, strictly hockey." He shook his head.

"Loser." I laughed.

He grabbed the bat from my hands and walked up to the plate, his movements completely wrong and I covered my mouth with my hands. I couldn't take it anymore and I walked up to him.

"Ok, swing straight. Move your hips an step into it, bend your knees a bit more, now try again."

He swung, and it went a lot better than before. I gave him a thumbs up and stepped back, allowing him to swing freely.

--

"Text me sometime." I kicked Lawrie lightly as I stepped back.

"Yeah, it's been too long." He replied.

"I miss you Brett." I said shakily.

"I've missed you too." He said, ducking his head.

--

I laid in bed, Luke's arm tossed over my stomach, and rolled over pulling the covers closer to my body. My heart breaking a little more everytime I thought of Brett.
