Roses Delivered
"Umm Y/N the door is for you." I heard my roommate and best friend Amber yell from the living room.
"Who is it?" I walked out and saw a guy standing there with what looks like a dozen red roses.
"Are you Y/N Y/L/N?"
"I am."
"These are for you." He hands me the roses and walks back to his car.
"More roses?" I turn around and see Amber standing there.
"And I still don't know who they are from." I sighed and set them next to the sunflowers I got yesterday. I took a step back and looked at them both trying to figure out who set them.
"I wish they put a card or something."
"You can think about on the way to the game. Now hurry go put your jersey on and let go." I looked at the flowers a little longer and went to my room.
"Are you going to wear Jamie's jersey?" Amber stood in my doorway leaning against it.
"I was think-"
"Oh my god Y/N I know who has been sending you the flowers!" I looked over at her to continue. "Jamie Benn has been sending you those flowers!"
"What are you talking about? He has not been sending the flowers he would have told me and why would Jamie be sending me flowers?"
"Are you kidding me? Because Jamie likes you. I keep telling you this. He has liked you since the day you guys meet."
"And I keep telling you that Jamie doesn't like me. We are friends." I took Jamie jersey and slid it on. "Let's go, Amber, we are going to be late."
I can't lie I have thought that Jamie is the one sending the flowers. I have liked Jamie since the day I meet him but I don't think he feels the same way. He will always say 'your such a great friend' he only sees me as a friend but Amber thinks differently.
We started walking out the door but stopped when there was a door. I opened it and saw a guy there standing with a bouquet of lilies.
"Flowers for Y/N."
"Jamie is definitely the one sending them." I glared at her and turned back to the delivery man.
"Thank you so much." I shut the door and set them down next to the other two bouquets.
"Y/N there's a card with this one." Amber pointed out. I took it and opened it. "Well, what does it say?"
"It says 'If and when I score one date. Please? J'" I looked at the card and then at Amber and her smile couldn't be any bigger.
"I told you! Oh my god, I so told you it was Jamie!"
"We have to get going, let's go."

Jamie ended up scoring three goals. After he scored the first one his celebrated like he just won the Stanley Cup. Amber looked at me and hugged me while jumping up and down.
Right now we were walking down to the locker room. As we got closer I was starting to get nervous. I stopped quickly. I turned around and started to walk back down the hall.
"Where do you think you're going?" I turned and saw Amber and Tyler standing there looking at me. "The locker room is this way." Tyler walked closer to me.
"Is it really Jamie sending the flowers? Because if not I don't want to be here I wouldn't be able to handle it. Tyler if you're going to say that he isn't the one then I am going to go to the store and buy like ten things of ice cream and eat my feelings away. I went through that whole game thinking it was Jamie but I couldn't be totally wrong it could be someone else that started with a J. I don't-"
"Y/N You need to breathe and look at me." I took a deep breath and looked up at him. "I should say anything but yes he is the one that is sending you the flowers. Now I came out here to take you somewhere will you come with me?" I nodded my head and followed Tyler down the hall and past the locker room.
"Tyler where are we going? Isn't this the way to the ice?"
"Stop asking questions and go see Jamie." He pointed out onto the ice and I saw him there in his suit but with skates on and holding another pair in his hands.
"So I am hoping that you got my flowers. I thought you would say something to me about them when we talked yesterday but you never brought it up." I could tell he was a little nervous.
"Yes I got your flowers Jamie they were all so beautiful and I saw all your goals tonight. You only had to make one and for the date." His eyes lit up. "But that hate trick was amazing."
"Had to make sure you saw them. So does that mean you'll go on a date with me?" I smiled up at him.
"Yes just tell me when and I will be there."
"How about right now?"
"Are you serious?" he nodded his head yes. "Well, where are we going then?"
"Out there." Jamie pointed out to the ice and my ice went wide.
"No no no Jamie you know I can't skate I am going to fall on my ass and make a fool of myself on our first date."
"What kind of date would I be if I let you fall? I promise I won't let you fall okay?" I looked at him and back at the ice.
"I don't know Jamie."
"Y/N do you trust me?"
"That is a stupid question Jamie, of course, I trust you."
"Alright, then let's get your skates on." Jamie took my hand in his and led me to the bench and helped me put the skates on.
The whole time we were out there I never once fell. There were a few times I thought I was but Jamie was right there to catch me.

The next day
"Roses for Y/N." I looked at the delivery man that was standing at my door. It was the same guy from yesterday. "This guy must really like you if he keeps sending you flowers."
"Yeah, he must. Thank you so much." I took the pink roses from him and smiled.
"Is he going to keep sending flowers every day now?" Amber came out to see who was at the door.
"I don't know." I took out my phone and called Jamie.
"Hey Y/N" I smiled when I heard his voice.
"Jamie you know you don't have to keep sending me flowers I said yes yesterday to be your girlfriend." I looked over at the four bouquets of flowers.
"I know but I just wanted to make sure you didn't change your mind." I laughed
"Jamie I am must definitely not changing my mind you're stuck with me now."
"Okay good. Are you free for lunch? I am going to be getting out of practice around 12:30 if you're free."
"I would love to have lunch with you, Jamie."
"Good I will see you then." I hung up the phone and couldn't stop smiling.
"It's about damn time you guys got together. I am so happy for you both." Amber comes up to me and hugs me.
