You slowly walked through the streets of downtown, the streetlights just starting to come on. You had been walking around for about 45 minutes, wondering where the hell you were going to go. Had the girl he was with been anyone else, you would've walked straight to Natalie's. Unfortunately that wasn't an option this time. You felt your phone vibrate in your pocket and you pulled it out, seeing it was a text from another one of the Jets, Jacob Trouba. You guys were pretty close, and you knew you could count on him. You didn't bother opening his text but you continued walking down the road at a quicker pace this time. Didn't want to run into any creeps before you could get to his place.
You knocked on his door 3 times and stood back, waiting for someone to open the door. He shared the apartment with another defenseman Zack Bogosian. You didn't know which of the 2 would answer, and you prayed it would be Jake. You liked Zack and all, but you just couldn't talk with him like you could with Jacob. 30 seconds later, the door opened, and your praying paid off because it was Jake.
"Y/N! What happened? Come inside," he said, quickly ushering you through the door into his apartment. You looked at yourself in the mirror that was in his hallway and realized your eyes were still red, and you were crying a little. He sat you down on his couch in the living room and took your stuff. "Can I get you anything?" he asked kindly.
"No thanks Jake," you said quietly.
"Are you gonna tell me what happened?" he asked, rubbing the top of your hand comfortingly.
"Well, I came home from yoga class..." you started, telling the whole story without crying to your surprise. "...and then he was with Nat!" you said, a little more loudly than necessary.
"That man whore asshole! I'm gonna kill that guy!" he exclaims angrily, and stands up to start pacing around the room.
"Jake, no you're not. For one, you'll get charged with assault. Second, you guys need a full roster if you want to go anywhere this season." you said. Why the hell am I the reasonable one right now? you thought to yourself.
"You can stay here for a few nights if you need." he offered, taking what you were about to ask him next right out of your mouth. "Zack's staying at his girlfriends the next few days, he won't even know." he explained as he lead you down the hallway to his bedroom.
"Thank you so much Jake."
"You're welcome. If you need anything, just ask."
"I just really need a shower." you told him, laughing.
