Hockey Imagines

Jamie Benn (Dallas Stars)

Tonight was the night of the NHL awards and your amazing boyfriend was nominated for the Ted Lindsey and the Hart. You were super proud of what he's done this season and how far he's come. However Jamie's nerves are through the roof tonight because he's up for the two biggest awards of the night against players who are clearly very talented or they wouldn't be in the NHL or nominated for the award.

"Babe, please calm down." You said as Jamie started pacing in the hotel room. "I'm sorry." "Hey listen everything will be fine." "What if I don't win?" "I'm not going to love you any less. Your parents, Jordie, and Jen aren't going to love you any less. The Dallas Stars aren't not going to not keep you on the team or not offer an extension because of it. No one is gonna look at you any different I promise." "I love you." "I love you too." You kissed and then had to leave to join his mom and sister in getting ready for the award show. "How's Jamie?" "Nervous, very nervous." "Sounds like my Jamie." His mom said and you nodded in agreement. You did both his mom and sister's hair and then his sister did you make up and you girls looked amazing. "Jamie is going to forget the nerves when he sees you." "Aw thanks, you girls look amazing as well." "Not as good as you." You have them a smile and went to the guys to see if they were done yet. You knocked on the door and Jordie answered. "Damn, come in we just finished. Oh Jam come see your girl." He came around the corner and his mouth dropped which made you blush a bit.

"You look amazing." "I'd say best dressed couple?" Jordie said and Everyone agreed and Jamie kissed your cheek. "Are we all ready to go?" Heather asked and you all nodded and left the hotel room. You went down to the lobby and Jamie saw PK Subban and pulled you over with him since his arm was still wrapped around your waist. "Hey Jamie, and may I add Katie you look stunning tonight. You're lucky Jamie." "Thank you." "I know I am. Got myself an amazing girl." "You really do." "Thank you both." "Of course." Jamie kissed your cheek and the two guys talked for a few before having to leave. "Baby walk down the carpet with me?" "Sure babe, you just wanna show off don't you?" "Maybe." He said with a smirk. "It's okay I'm okay with that. We gotta show off our looks." He chuckled and helped out of the car. "Let's go babe." You smiled and he had an arm around your waist as you walked, took pictures, talked to people. "Jamie must I say you and your girlfriend have to be best dressed tonight." "Thank you, we try our best." "Now Katie, who are you wearing?" "I wish I could tell you, I have no idea." "Jamie?" "Heck if I know." "And you also win couple who doesn't take time to know their fashion." "Thanks we take pride in our fashion knowledge." You all laughed a bit. They talked hockey for a few minutes before you kept going. Jamie signed some autographs and you made it past the red carpet, into the actually building for the show. You found your seats, you sat in between Jamie and his dad. And Jamie started getting nervous again. You took his hand and gave it a smile squeeze to calm him down. He looked at you, "you'll be fine." He nodded and took a deep breath. "Babe look at me, you'll be fine. If it's any consolation out of all the players in here, I picked you." "Wow thanks babe." He said with a smile. "You're welcome." It wasn't long before the host came out and the show began.

It was time to announce the Ted Lindsey and Jamie grabbed your hand. "And the winner is....Patrick Kane of the Chicago Blackhawks!!" Everyone clapped but you could clearly see the disappointment in Jamie's eyes because now he knows the Hart is almost out of reach. After Kane got his award they cut to commercial. "Babe?" "Jam it's okay you still have a shot." "Not a good one." "But it's possible." "I guess so." Lindy came down. "You know Jamie, just because you didn't win, we all think you should've and we all know what you are capable of, so use this and keep going." "Thanks Lindy." "No problem." They hugged and the show started again.

Neither Lindy nor Jim Nill won the awards they were nominated for and it was finally time for the Hart trophy winner to be announced. Jamie was nervous as hell now, his leg was bouncing and his hand gripped yours. Honestly you were nervous too because you how much this means to Jamie and he wants it for the team and he wants it to prove to people he is just as good as everyone else. "The winner is... Patrick Kane!!!" Jamie looked at you and at his family and he looked disappointed and very upset. Kane went up and gave his speech and then the host closed the show and we were allowed to leave. Jamie had yet to say a word and you knew exactly what was happening. He shuts everyone out and tries to figure out where he went wrong and it's hard to break him out of it. Jamie went and talked to Jim and Lindy and Jordie but an arm around your shoulders. "He okay?" "He'll tell you he is but he most definitely is not. You can see it in his eyes but he won't let anyone know." "Good luck with him." "Thanks." You went over to Jamie and he put an arm around you and they talked about the team for a bit before Jamie wanted to leave. "Babe?" "Yeah?" "Can we walk back?" You asked. "If you want." You began the walked back. "What's bothering you?" "Nothing." "Jamie don't lie." "I'm not." "Yes you are." "I can't help but feel like I let everyone down, okay?! Leave me alone." The rest of the walk was silent and you got to the hotel and went up to the room. "I'll be there in a minute." He just nodded and you went to Jordie's room and knocked on the door. "What's wrong Katie?" "Talk to him please." "Why? what happened?" "He flipped out, please talk to him." "Yeah come on." You both went to your room and you went to the bathroom to change while they talked and You heard them yelling at each other too. You walked out and they stopped. "Jamie listen to me carefully, we care about you and right now we wanted to know how you felt so we could help. You don't always have to be a robot and you don't need to take your anger out on us either." You said and he sighed. "I'm sorry." "We forgive you." Jordie said hugging him and then leaving. You went over and he pulled you in his arms. "I'm sorry babe." "It's okay. I just wish you would let us in more." "I will I promise."
