Washington Capitals Love Triangle

Chapter 3- The Unexpected

Wilson's POV

I watched as she placed my towel over my hip with delicate hands and told me to stay there for about 15 minutes. I got her name but I wanted to know more.
"So have you lived in this area for a long time?"
She turned around surprised and shocked that I would ask such a question.
"Yeah, I have always stayed within Virginia. What about you?"
"No, I grew up in Toronto Canada."
She smiled and went on with her work. She didn't seem to want to engage in any interaction, maybe since I was cold to her this morning. I mean, I want to know about her but she was distracting me from my career and I needed to focus on hockey and the team.

I assumed that practice was about over since I heard a lot of noise in the hallway.

I opened the door slightly but I didn't see anyone.

I watched as Mika walked towards the door and looked into the hallway.
"I'll be right back." She said with a curious look on her face.

As I listened, I could hear fans chanting and snaps of cameras. I wonder who is here. Usually there wasn't a lot of press at our practices.

I started to get up when she runs back inside the door, out of breath. I looked her down and up since she was so breath takingly beautiful even when she just panting.
"What happened?" I asked while I smirked at her.
"There's another team here for practice and it's....." She didn't want to say it but I motioned with my hand to say "go on".
"It's the Pittsburgh Penguins."

Mika's POV

His sexy smirk turned into a frown the instant I said Pittsburgh Penguins. I knew they were a rival team but his reaction definitely confirmed that they are not fans if each other. He started to get up when I asked, "Where do you think your going?"
"To the boys."
He said it with such determination and I felt I was imposing if I asked him to to stay and rest.
"You still have 5 minutes."
He didn't seem to care as he put back on his pants and skates and started for the door.
"You are going against trainers wishes" I shouted as he headed for the latch of the door. He laughed darkly and said "I'll probably be back anyway".

He left towards the rink and I could obviously see that he was limping a bit from the pain in his hip. I told myself, if he gets hurt then I will be in so much trouble.

I reached for my tablet and started finishing up his file and noting that he left against my orders when I hear shouting and sticks being slammed to the ground. I set down my tablet and headed out the door. I jogged down the hallway to the entrance to the rink when I saw the Pittsburgh Penguins and the Capitals about to start an off ice fight over practice space. I headed over to the coaches that were in the middle trying to break them up.

"Why are you here? This is our practice space." Green said.
"We play you tomorrow, so we need practice now." Malkin said.

They started bantering back and forth, when I gave the coaches an idea.
"Why don't the penguins practice on the other rink and the caps stay where they are?" I got some complaints since only one of the rinks is an Olympic sized on but it's our home practice space and we should have majority in say.

The coaches thought it over and told the penguins coach the set up, they happily agreed while some of the pens players gave me glares as they walked past me to the other rink. I noticed one player especially giving me a death glare and of course it was Sidney Crosby, captain of the penguins.

Sid's POV

She had some nerve telling us where to go and where to practice. If she worked for us, I would have gotten her fired. She glared back with as much disgust as I gave her. She must be a crazed fan or the coach's daughter. She had no right, they were done with their practice so why do we have to go to the smaller rink, it wasn't fair to my boys.
