Tyler's P.O.V.
We all woke up at ten and got ready. We went out to breakfast then to a local craft store. We got different colored posters and different things to decorate it with. We all don't want to have to do coaches punishment. When we had to last time.. It was like hell on ice. With out the fire there melting the ice and stuff. We got hockey craft stuff and already cut out letters and stencils. Oh we were so going to win coaches good side today. When we had a whole basket full of stuff we headed back to my place because it was the biggest. We set everything out in categories and got to work. We put funny, but good, stuff on them and made sure to include Elizabeth name in some way. We had some that said 'coach said to root for our enemy's.... Go ELIZABETH!' And 'Hey guys see Elizabeth? If you want her number to take her on a date then it is 15' we chuckled at them. They made no sense but it was worth a shot. Then we had the classic go Elizabeth with her number and stuff. We finished up by 2:00 in the afternoon then decided to take a small nap. We were gonna head to the game at five.
Elizabeth's P.O.V.
I woke up to Georgia shaking me half to death. I swear my brain was dying with every shake. Finally I opened my eyes and sat up. "Tell me how it went!" I laughed then patted the bed next to me. I told her about the whole competition and how the boys have to make me a poster each. She laughed really hard when I got to the spot about the Kaner superman. I got my phone and showed her the footage one of the players sent me. She laughed even harder. When I was done she was rolling on the floor laughing. I think she might have even peed her pants. "Will you calm down, I'm gonna go take a shower." She was still laughing and managed to say okay. I hopped in and out really fast and then went to see what time it was. I like to sleep until three on game days then eat when I am done getting ready. I made myself something then when I finally finished i checked the time and it was time to head to the rink.
I pulled in to my reserved parking spot and grabbed my bag out of the trunk. I walked inside and headed to the locker room. I dropped it off there then walked out and headed to the stands. Once I saw all the guys with their posters I couldn't even walk up to them because I was laughing so hard. They noticed me then Howard said, "Hardy har har. Laugh all you want. We aren't embarrassed and you will be hearing from us the entire time!" I just laughed then walked back into the locker room and got ready.
I was out on the ice now and the guys were in the stands shouting and saying all of this funny stuff. Their signs were pretty impressive. I laughed really hard as I noticed their coach with his own little sign. I skated over to my bench and coach chuckled. "What happened?" I laughed and said, "Let's just say they got proved to that I was better at most of the things and I won the bet. They all have to be my cheerleaders!" He laughed really hard then told me he had an idea for intermission since we knew all of our plays and stuff. The ref blows his whistle signaling game time. I take my spot for face off against some dude as he said, "Sending a girl to do a mans job. Have fun choking on my ice." I smirk and the puck drops. I shove my shoulder into him knocking him to the ground and skate off with the puck. I pass it to one of my players on right wing then took a hit. I looked at who it was and it was the same guy that I just knocked down. I was pissed now and was ready to show him what I'm made of. Derek tried to distract the guy while I got into a place and no one noticed. Jimmy passes the puck to me and I hit a wrister. "GOAAAAAAAALLLLL!!!!" I did my signature celly which consisted of something like my hands blowing up. I could hear the guys cheering and I had my team mates hugging me. I hit their helmets with my stick then headed over to my goalie, "Nice one Elizabeth! Just keep them coming!" I nodded my head then hit my stick against his pads. I skated past my team giving them high fives then we switched shifts. I looked up in the stands at the guys and noticed one of them was watching me. Even though I was sitting. It was Tyler.
Tyler's P.O.V.
It was just five minutes into the first when Elizabeth knocked a guy down took a hit from him then managed to slip to a place where no one noticed her. Then she scored a goal. I jumped out of my seat with the rest of the guys then high fived them. We settled down and watched some more. I felt the need to look over at the bench and I did. When I looked I focused my eyes on one person in particular. Elizabeth. She was beautiful and talented. Not to mention funny. I was so surprised when she pulled the Kaner thing up. I talked to coach when I was done getting ready last night because he said he had something he wanted to tell me. I walked in his office and he instructed me to sit. I did as told. He told me that she said I was her number one role model, her inspiration. I was shocked because coach has always known I was a big fan of her. Everyone did but, knowing me they didn't tell her. I was thankful for that. I realized I was still staring at her when she looked my way and caught me. I just tried to play it cool and waved. She nodded her head at me. She turned back to the game when she felt a tap on her shoulder. Telling her she was next for the shift. As a couple of other players filed onto the bench she hopped of the board and took her spot. The same guys she knocked down was going up against her again. It looked like he was saying something to her. I notice hurt and it made me stiffen. Wait. Why am I getting mad that he is messing with her? It happens all the time in hockey. She signals the linesman to stop for a second and she looks around. Then up at me. I saw hurt in her eyes and I wanted to hurt the guy. What is happening to me? I'm just a fan. Or could I actually have a crush on her?
Elizabeth's P.O.V.
We had just changed shifts again and I was back out on the ice with that douche. He was being mean and when I got him good, he pulled up the one subject that stung like a bee. And I was not okay with it. "Where's your mom? Oh wait I forgot you don't have one! Maybe that's why you have a bunch of losers up there supporting you." I was pissed but also hurt. I stopped the linesman for a second then looked around trying to compose myself. I finally looked up at Tyler. His jaw was clenched and he looked pissed. I smiled at him then got back down to a face off. "Your gonna wish you were never brought into this world." I said with venom. I knocked him on his butt then passed the puck back to Georgia. I leaned down and said really fast, "Regret it yet puck bunny?" He just growled then got up. I let him in front of me. When he was near the glass I started to near him and get into position. I knocked him into the glass, he fell to the ice then got up and smirked, "Is that all you got princess?" I was furious and I had had enough. I took one glove off in two second and punched the guy across the face. With one punch he was on the ground holding his face. I got a five minute penalty nothing else. When I finally went up against him again I said, "At least I'm not a kiss up mamas boy. Need her to hold the ice on your cheek cuz you got hit by a girl?" I asked in a mocking high pitched voice. He rolled his eyes and said nothing. "Glad I got my message through your head." First period was over and we headed to the locker room. No one said anything to me about punching the guy. I regret nothing. Coach pulled out a long piece of poster. "Alright, here's the game plan." We drew on it and by the time we finished it was time to go. We lined up with it and headed out onto the ice. The guys all looked at it then smiled. It read, 'Welcome Utah Fire' it had all of their names and stuff. They cheered then we rolled it up and put it in the bench.
Before I knew it the game was over and I was showered. We won 6-2 and that little douche left with a swelling cheek. The ice didn't work. He should learn to shut his mouth. I headed out of the locker room being the last one. I ran into something. No someone.
Tyler's P.O.V.
She ran into me and looked up startled. Probably expecting to see that douche there. I relaxed when she felt relief knowing it was me. "Tyler, what are you doing here?" She asked almost about to stutter. I shrugged my shoulders then said, "Well I wanted to wish you congrats. And talk to you about some stuff. It's not too late so do you want to grab a bite to eat?" She nodded her head then said, "That would be nice." We walked out then I remembered, "Oh! I hope you don't mind but I rode here with some team mates and they left so would you mind giving me a lift?" She shook her head yeah, I smiled and hopped into the passenger side. She hopped into the drivers seat after putting her bag in the trunk. I put my poster in the back and she laughed at it. "Green, my favorite color!" She said with a smile on her face. I looked down then blushed. I looked at her then said, "Yeah I know. That is why I picked it out." I saw shock on her face then she turned on the car. "Where to?" She asked I shrugged my shoulders then said, "How about village in? My treat!" She blushed then nodded her head. Putting her car into drive we headed off.
