The life of a hockey girl

Chapter 10~ Ian's POV

Chapter 10

Ian's point of view

I'm going to kill him. It's one thing to break a girls heart, that's just terrible but when its Kaylee's... It's a whole other story. Kaylee is the sweetest girl I've ever met, she's wonderful and she's my best friend and when you break her heart you'd better get ready to feel the same amount of pain. No one on the team looks to kindly upon anyone who does anything to try and hurt her or get to her. Chris better be ready to take a beating when the guys hear about this.

I can understand someone who doesn't know her doing it, someone who hasn't known her since they were seven. They'd still have to deal with me but... This is worse. He's the team captain, he's supposed to be our leader so what is he doing tearing us a part? Hurting her, he's hurt all of us.

As I walked into the change room everyone turned to look at me, I guess they're waiting for her, she's always one of the first people here. You could fell the tension in the room, even before I'd said something, they all knew something was up. I dropped my bag beside Anthony's and walked straight up to the coach, her clothes in my hand. "Kaylee said she's done, thanks for a great year but she can't do it anymore." The room was dead silent now. Everyones eyes went wide the coach looked baffled.

"What why would Kaylee, of all people, quit? She loves it here ,ore than anybody else." The coach finally said.

"Well I don't really know, care to tell us Chris?" It came out, it wasn't supposed to but, I'm just so angry I couldn't keep it in.

"What? Why the hell would I know?" He answered angrily.

"Forget it, let's just get out there and get this over with." I replied.

"No, I may not know but I'm going to find out." He said, taking the clothes from the coaches hands, grabbing his stuff and leaving the room, slamming the door behind him.

I ran out after him, she'd kill me if I let him go see her. "Chris! You can't go after her let me go instead!"

"Oh piss off! It's my turn to make it all better!" He ran off and hopped into his car. She's gonna kill me.

*flashback*

It was the summer of grade 8 when I realized it. She liked me and I liked her too. It was the last week of summer, we could start grade nine as a couple. I had to try. I texted her at nine o'clock on the saturday and asked if she could hang out. She was at her cottage so she suggested we just play truth or dare. This would be my chance.

About an hour into the game I asked her.

Kaylee: Truth

Ian: ALright... Do you like me?

Kaylee: Umm... I don't know.

Ian: Just give me a straight answer.

Kaylee: I can't give you a straight answer, I don't know!

Ian: Come on Kaylee just answer yes or no?

Kaylee: It's not that easy.

Ian: Yes it is!

Kaylee: No it's not, I really don't know how I fell about you.

Ian: Come on Kay all you have to do is say yes or no

Kaylee: Fine you want my answer, here's the whole story. I have liked you for 2 years now, I've been waiting for you to notice me, for two years. At school all you do is ignore me and when you do acknowledge my existence its only to make a rude comment. I can't take it any more! It's taken you two years and now, your time is up, you're too late, so you know what it sucks to be you!

Ian:... I'm so sorry...

Kaylee: Sorry doesn't cut it this time.

...

There was no doubt in my mind that I had just made my best friend cry.

She had long brown hair, the colour of milk chocolate, it had a few blonde streaks and it was softer than a puppy's ears. Her eyes were hazel but more on the green side. In the summer she had a gorgeous tan and in the winter she wasn't too pale, you could still tell she'd spent a lot of time outside when it was warm. Her lips... Oh how I longed to feel them on mine, to know what it felt like to have them pressed to have them next to mine. They looked so soft, she was always putting lip balm on them. She has a scar, about an inch long on her forehead, straight down the middle. It's quite faded now but you can still tell that it's there if you look hard enough. It doesn't affect her beauty at all it makes her prettier, unique. She's had it since the time she was 4, it's always bothered her, she once told me that the only thing she though about when it happened was how she was never going to be pretty again. I'd tell her she was beautiful with or without the scar and the blood would always rush to her cheeks. She was tall for a girl, my height actually and it was perfect and I couldn't love her more if I tried.

Kaylee was a kind, sweet, loving person, she greeted everyone with a smile even if she didn't know you she would say hi and probably take a second to learn your name. She was a people person, everyone loved her! She never realized how much everyone liked her, she liked to keep her group of friends small, she never really noticed how envious people were. Her and Autumn used to run around having fun and everyone would watch. They thought that people just thought they were a bit crazy but, they were all just jealous of the fun they had and how close they were because nobody else did anything like that. As much as she'd like to deny it, she liked being the center of attention and she always was. None of us minded, she wasn't a bad person to focus on. Many of the guys liked her but she didn't seem to care, she just wanted to have fun. She constantly flirted without noticing or, maybe not caring but thats just who she is and you can't help but like her for it.

Although I'm happy with Jamie, sometimes I can't help but long or her, wish it was her I was with, think about what it would be like if it was us. Sometimes I catch myself staring at her but I can't help it, when she sees me she smiles and I feel this warm bubbly feeling inside.

As much as I wish for it to happen sometimes, I know it won't. Kaylee is always looking forward, to the future, to what lies ahead. Once you're in the past, you stay there, she's not going to look back for you, she never looks back. If she looks back for you, even for a second, you may just be the luckiest man on earth. I hope she never looks back for Chris.

*Present*

Ian: Get ready, he's coming.

Kaylee: Why?
