My Brother, The Hockey Player

Chapter 44

Ski

School. Once again.

Anthony was coming with us since he's going to be here for a while and needs schooling. Adam and I have been trying to teach him and Christina how to speak normal English, not their translated version from Italian to English.

Mom already signed Anthony into school, and he wanted the same schedule as me, so they gave it to him. We were all walking to the quad. School doesn't start till another fifteen minutes, so we just had to wait.

"It is very nice of you all to take Christina and I in. Mostly me, since I was the one who came last minute." Anthony said with a smile. I looked at him and smiled back.

"No problem, man. We're glad to have you. The team is gonna love you, too." I said. We all stopped walking and got into a little circle to talk. Anthony grabbed my hand, and we locked fingers. I felt myself start to blush.

"Hey, Cloud. I have to show you something." Adam said as he walked over to me. He got in between Anthony and I and knocked him out of the way. We let go of hands and Adam showed me his arm. It was all bruised up. I looked at him in shock.

"Adam? What is that? What happened?" I asked in a nervous tone. Adam laughed a little.

"Don't worry, Ski. It's from hockey. You know that girl, Tammy?" Adam asked. I thought about it, then I remember her flirting with Adam when we were passing the eggs at practice that one time. I looked at him and nodded. "Well, that same practice, Coach decided to give her a freaking puck and when she shot it, it hit it my arm." I started to laugh.

"Your team sounds like they really do not know what they are doing." Christina stated. We all looked at her.

"No, we do. But they're still kinda new so they just need to work on some stuff." I replied. Christina nodded.

"That makes a lot more since, then."
