One Chance

Chapter 3

"You're actually the worst person I have ever met!" I yell to Brendan who is currently teasing me by skating around the bench, where I'm standing in my converse.

Brendan stops infront of where I'm standing, in his skates hes a good foot taller than me, "Come on Maddi, babe, baby, wonderful girlfriend, put on some skates, please?"

I laugh, "Flattery will get you nowhere, but keep trying." In reality I'm scared of skating even if my additude dosen't show it.

"Please? I have to spend four hours locked away with Chucky. I deserve to skate with somebody who means a lot to me." Brendan smirks, resting his forehead on mine, "You are everything I could ever want." 

I blush and pull away, "You're a charmer, Brendan Gallagher. Come lace me up." I giggle while grabbing the pair of skates I refused to put on earlier. 

"Yes! Maddison Limb, you're fantastic." Brendan gladly ties up my skates, him humming a cheerful tune the entire time.

I pause and take out my iPhone, "Lets take a selfie first." Brendan sighs and wraps his arm around my waist as I hold out the phone. I smile and take the picture, I set my phone on the bench and follow Brendan into the ice, I cautiously step onto the cold surface.

"Brendan, I swear to god if you let me fall..." I trail off, grabbing his hands. He laughs and starts to skate backwords slowly, dragging me along with him.

"You're doing great baby, keep moving your feet." Brendan encourages, speeding up a little bit. 

A voice suddenly booms throught the speakers, "GAAAAALLLLYYYYY!" I squeal and slip, my ass coming in contact with the hard ice.

"SCREW OFF PK!" Brendan yells before helping me stand up, "Are you okay Maddi? You're not hurt?"

I catch my balance, "I'm fine. Who the hell let PK into the announcer's box?" I grunt, hanging onto Brendan's arm to keep my feet underneath me.

"Be down in a minute guys!" PK yells. I sigh and look up at Brendan who just shrugs.

I sigh, "This is why I don't leave either of our apartments. The outernet scares me." 

Brendan bursts out laughing, "The outernet? Really?"

I stare at him blankly, "The internet is my home." Before I know it, we're both using eachother for support, mostly me leaning on him as we both try to contain our giggles. 

"You're such a weirdo!" He says, skating me over to center ice.

I blush, "Yeah, but I'm your weirdo." Brendan pecks my cheek as we come to a stop at the face off dot.

Brendan faces me and takes both my hands in his, "Can I say something to you before PK interupts again?"

I nod, "Of course." Brendan should know by now that he can tell me anything by now.

He clears his throat and gazes into my eyes with his blue ones, "Madison, I asked you out two and a half months ago because I knew you were different, you didn't care about me being in the NHL and I didn't care that you had your own fanbase. You made me fall for Madison Limb, the girl who loves sour patch kids possibly too much. Maddi, I guess what I'm trying to say is, I lo-"

"Hey guys! Pricey said that he'll be here in a few, then I say we scrimmage!" PK interupts. Dammit, Pernell Karl. 

Brendan sighs and turns toward PK, "Maddi hasn't played in forever, Subby."

He shrugs, "Okay, she can have Pricey on her team then, I'll goaltend for you and me." 

I speak up as I wobble towards the bench, "Somebodies gonna have to teach me to shoot." 

"You don't have to do this Maddi, we can get Chucky or someone to come out." I ignore Brendan and lean on the bench and take out my iPhone to see two new texts. One from Jack Harries and one from Finn Harries, I met them both at playlist live along with Caspar Lee, Zoella, Alfie, Tyler Oakly, Troye Sivan and Marcus Butler. The best part is I've kept in contact with all of them.

From: Jack Harries

Just got an offer from two friends of mine to travel in Dubai, Finn and I have an extra ticket. (If you want to chuck yourself out of a plane I suggest you say yes.)

From: Finn Harries

COME TO DUBAI WITH US BITCH. 

When we did meet, Jack and I talked about how much we both want to go sky diving, at the thought of doing that in Dubai, I let my jaw drop.

Brendan sits down on the bench across from where I'm standing on boards, "Whats wrong babe?" He asks.

I look up with a smile on my face, "You remember Jack and Finn right?" I ask, Brendan was with me during Playlist live, he loved it.

"Yeah, why?" He responds, taking a sip of water.

"WELL THEY'RE TAKING ME SKYDIVING IN DUBAI!" I scream, laughing as PK covers his ears.

I fucking love my life
